Where are the altera_up_avalon_adc.h and altera_up_avalon_parallel_port.h header files located?

I'm running an HPS (Ubuntu 18 on DE1-SoC) system and am trying to interface with the onboard ADC. I've had limited success with the device tree, and think that I must add some entries to instantiate the avalon bus, but am unsure of how to do this. Also, I am looking for those header files: altera_up_avalon_adc.h and altera_up_avalon_parallel_port.h. I can't seem to find them in my Quartus 13.1 installation folder.

    Hello,

    altera_up_avalon_adc.h and altera_up_avalon_parallel_port.h are the drivers of the ADC soft core IP. This driver can be used only for Nios II development.

    For HPS, these files are meaningless.

    You should use a linux ADC driver.

    thanks
