OpenCL starter guide for Intel Cyclong10 GX FPGA development kit

We are beginners with the Intel Cyclone 10 GX FPGA development kit, aiming to implement an OpenCL project on this board. Our plan involves connecting the board to a PC running Ubuntu 20.04, with the PC acting as the host and the board as the device. Unfortunately, we have been unable to find any examples online, and we can't find the BSP and OpenCL driver for the Cyclone 10 GX. Is there a tutorial or getting started guide available, preferably with an example? Thanks for your help.

P.S. The preferred software version is 18.0 pro.

    Hi @Ran-GUO,


    Thank you for posting in Intel community forum and hope all is well.

    As Intel OpenCL has been deprecated, hence we would try our best to support on the mention issues.


    Unfortunately there is no example design for the Cyclone10 devices.

    However a few other sample design can be found in the following quick start git repo, as well as the BSP for those design and some instruction:

    - https://github.com/intel/FPGA-Devcloud/tree/master/main/QuickStartGuides/OpenCL_Program_PAC_Quickstart

    - https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/support-resources/design-guidance/opencl-bsp-support.html


    Hope that clarify

    Best Wishes

    Hello @BoonBengT_Altera ,

    I created a BSP, compiled and generated an .aocx file, I am looking for information on how to implement it. I don't have the driver to run it. How do I get or create a driver, or is there another way to run it? Thanks.

    (The Host PC running Ubuntu 20.04)

    Best wishes,

    Ran
