New ContributorConfig/Boot flow without U-boot for Agilex devices
Hi,
Unfortunately, we do not have the info on the future examples for Agilex Baremetal.
Well, alternatively, you could do, get the examples from Stratix 10 SoC baremetal and go from there since both are based on ARM* Cortex-A53 processors.
To get the examples for Stratix 10 SoC Baremetal, you need to install SoC EDS 20.1 Pro, the examples are located in "installation_folder/examples/software/...". :

New ContributorHi Eberlazare,
Thanks for the reply. No, that is not what I am looking for. That still involves u-boot & Linux. I am looking for something similar to https://github.com/cambridgehackers/Altera-SoCFPGA-HardwareLib-MPL , where the SPL/FSBL itself programs the FPGA and I can run my applications from ARM-DS directly without involving OS or U-boot. Please let me know how to modify U-boot SPL to program the FPGA by avoiding the U-boot and OS.
Also, Is it really possible to run bare metal apps on Agilex? Did Intel engineers test any alternative boot flows? I have already spent close to 2 weeks on this thing and every solution I tried reached a dead-end. Please suggest a solution,
Regards
Nikhil
