Hi,

Like I mentioned at the beginning that we have a product which has iMX8M-Plus processor with an Arria 10 GX FPGA. We are not using Arria 10 SX SoC.

We connect Passive Serial Port of Arria 10 GX FPGA to SPI port of our iMX8M-Plus processor.

It is very possible to configure Arria 10 GX FPGA fully through its Passive Serial Configuration port which will be controlled by Linux at the end.

My question was about how to use fpga-arria10-passive-serial driver available in the latest linux kernel developed by Altera. And unfortunately my initial question is still valid.

Thank you.
