Hello,


I am sorry to keep you waiting. I have consulted this case with engineering, MAX10 RSU + NIOS II XIP from on-chip flash is still under investigation. There will be a fix in future release, but it is not stated which version. So the functionality of this feature is not guaranteed to work for now.


It is recommended to boot NIOS II from boot copier where the .text is in the on-chip memory, you will be able to update the application image in CFM1 and CFM2 and trigger reconfiguration after the image update.


If you boot NIOS II with XIP where the .text file is pointed to the QSPI controller, you will be able to update the CFM1 and CFM2, but the program will hang after last HEX data is being written to CFM.


regards,
