make: *** [my_hello_world.elf] Error 1

Hello Altera Guys;

I am having problem building my software in NIOS II SBT 15.0 (eclipse) and I really need your great help.

I have this message on my console and I do not know how to solve this problem.

make all

I followed what was instructed in building NIOS II software in the Altera documents https://www.altera.com/en_us/pdfs/literature/.../tt_my_first_nios_sw.pdf.

Any information you may share is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards

Ryan

    The message means that your code is too large to fit into memory. The default size for on chip memory is very small. Most of the tutorials have you use a larger on chip memory size. Look at the on chip memory module in QSYS. I should have a size large enough to fit your program. If it doesn't, pick a larger size (8K or 16K for example). Don't forget to re-generate the code in QSYS and re-compile in Quartus.

    Hello Galfonz;

    I tried also the procedure stated in the Altera document "Introduction to the Altera

    Qsys System Integration Tool"

    The problem still the same. But I can implement my software in Nios II when I using Altera Monitor Program.

    Kind regards

    Hey, try clicking on auto assign base address in Qsys tool before generating the component. The .rwdata and .bss might not be within the memory space.

    Auto assign option is available in the system tab in Qsys tool.
