NIOS SDK SBOM/FOSS info

Hi,

Regarding CRA, more and more customers are approaching us with inquiries about FOSS (Free/Libre Open Source Software).

Do we have FOSS information or a SBOM (Software Bill of Materials) for the NIOS SDK that we can share with customers?

Br,
Korbinian

    Hi Korbinian,

    May I ask if the customers are referring to:

    • Nios II Software Build Tools, or
    • Ashling RiscFree IDE for Altera FPGA?

    Nios II Software Build Tools is for the EOL-ed Nios II processor only. Since the Nios II processor is EOL-ed, the same goes with the tools. Thus, this request is likely not doable.

    Ashling RiscFree IDE for Altera FPGA is for Nios V processor only. We can request the FOSS / SBOM information from Ashling.

    Regards,
    Liang Yu
