Using SoC Interrupts, Timer, ... MakeFile Error / Question

Hello! I am trying to use the interrupts from FPGA to HPS (for example with the buttons of the Cyclone V Board etc). At first I was not able to get the compilation with the makefile to work, si...

Hi,


Are you using your own design or an example design that you get from somewhere?


Also, did you face any Errors in Quartus /Platform Designer/Qsys during compilation?

    Hi!
    For the FPGA I am using my own design which is based on the GHRD and the provided soc_system file.
    The design is working fine and I wanted to now add Interrupts etc. to it. Here is where the errors appear.

    I have not faced any errors or anything suspicious in Quartus / Qsys etc. during compilation. Also creating the header files etc. worked always fine. I do not think that it is an error that is somehow connected to the Quartus project. The error occurs when I use the SoC Embedded alt_interrupt , ... files for my c-code. The error appears when cross-compiling on Windows and also when compiling directly on Linux.

    As I said I was able to compile my c code before without interrupts but when I want to add the .h and .c files needed for the interrupts and timers the provided error message is thrown. I am also not even using the libraries yet, I just imported them and this already is not working.

    But I am not able to find any examples on how to use interrupts with these files online.
