8 years agoMany Thanks, I found many data of OpenCL PCI-E compatability, but there aren't compatability about PCI-E. But the FPGA are compatible with PCI-E Gen 1/2/3.
In the process of finding the data, I have some error about diagnostic. The FPGA test imege, i did, isn't for OpneCL imege. It means that it is just test imege to verify connecting FPGA with motherboard. So, I think, if I success to load the flash memorry, the "diagnostic command" doesn't working. That is my think. :) And I have one more thing I don't understand. Why the message, "failed clGetDeviceIDs.", are shown? The diagnostic use the FPGA OpenCL image in flash memorry. But the image is nothing in flash. (because I don't touched the board since I bought) I guess the process is that the driver in CPU request the FPGA ID, but the FPGA flash image is none, So driver fialed to get the FPGA ID. But It is just my think. Is it right? And one more thing. I don't have flash driver to program flash memory. So I don't program OpenCL imege in Flash memory, But in the altera OpenCL starting guide, many OpenCL imege using the flash memory. That means if I don't have the flash driver, I don't use the OpenCL. Is it right?
