OpenCL on FPGA Not able to generate hardware for matrix_mult.cl

Hello everyone, I am trying to compile a very basic matrx_mult kernel (also same error occurs for hello_world) for a nallatech 385a board. However, always I am getting the following error: ...

The compilation crash and the machine crash during FPGA reprogramming are two different things. Since you encounter the compilation crash also for other kernels, I recommend doing a clean install of Quartus and the BSP and see what happens. Also make sure you are using a supported operating system. If the problem still persisted, I recommend contacting Nallatech's support.

Machine crashes during FPGA reconfiguration on Arria 10 are not rare; I also experienced it myself multiple times, which eventually forced me to switch to JTAG-based programming. Try "export ACL_PCIE_USE_JTAG_PROGRAMMING=1" before running the kernel and see if that allows you to bypass the crash.
