Issues running Hello World openCL example missing libaltera_a10_ref_mmd.so

I'm trying to compile the hello_world openCL example. At first I was having an issue where it couldn't load the openCL platform. I got past that error by coping the $INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT/Intel_FPGA_SS...

Hi,

I am sorry for the late reply.

According to https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/opencl-sdk/aocl_getting_started.pdf in Chapter 3.3, you set the environment variables transiently.

Below is the script I had used to compile hello_world example with opencl offline compiler:

export AOCL_BOARD_PACKAGE_ROOT=<opencl install path>/board/a10_ref

cd $INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT

source init_opencl.sh

cd <hello_world example path >/hello_world

aoc -march=emulator -v device/hello_world.cl -o bin/hello_world.aocx

cd hello_world && make

CL_CONFIG_CPU_EMULATE_DEVICES=1 bin/host -n=10000

Can you try the command?

Thanks

    Hi Mylee,

    I tried your commands, and I get the following output

    $ CL_CONFIG_CPU_EMULATE_DEVICES=1 bin/host -n=100000

    When I try it with $ CL_CONTEXT_EMULATOR_DEVICE_INTELFPGA=1 bin/host -n=100000 I get the following output:
