Default hardware description file

cascade99
cascade99 over 9 years ago

HI,
Is there any default hardware description file available to download or any document to generate simple .hdf file?
I just like to start my software project which is asking a hardware description file.
Thanks

    There is no default hardware description file because there is no default hardware. What hardware are you targeting? There is likely a solution containing an HDF that you could start with.

    I have zedboard eval board, I followed the petalinux "Workflow Tutorial"(UG1156), page 7, "petalinux-build", I got the following err:
    [INFO ] install linux/kernel
    [ERROR] ERROR: Invalid ELF file '/opt/PetaLinux/project/Avnet-Digilent-ZedBoard-2015.4/images/linux/vmlinux'
    [ERROR] make[1]: *** [package-subsystem-FIT] Error 255
    ERROR: Failed to build linux

    I'm using newest release 2015.4, any comments? Thanks

    If you are using the ZedBoard, MicroZed 7010, ZC702, or the ZC706 board you can select one of the predefined hardware platforms in the SDK.

     

    In the SDK, when you start a 'new application project', use the dropdown box next to 'Hardware Platform' under 'Target Hardware'. If you select one of the pre-defined platforms, such as 'zed_hw_platform (pre-defined)', you will get an hdf file that matches the selected board that you can use with your new software project.

    Thanks, Gary. I used Avnet-Digilent-ZedBoard-v2014.4-final.bsp, I would be able to build vmlinux.
    Now I have another question that how can I download vmlinux to the zedboard?

    Hello Lynn,

     

    I am not sure what you mean when you refer to 'vmlinux'.

    I have also met the similar issue,following is the message: 

    [INFO ] vmlinux linux/kernel
    [INFO ] install linux/kernel
    [INFO ] package zImage
    [INFO ] zImage linux/kernel
    [INFO ] install linux/kernel
    [ERROR] ERROR: Invalid ELF file '/home/z/user/project_test/images/linux/vmlinux'
    [ERROR] make[1]: *** [package-subsystem-FIT] Error 255
     
    Maybe it is not the fault of HDF file because I have tried more than one HDF file and met the same issue as above.
     
    It seems that  the package of openssl-devel.x86_64 and  openssl098e.x86_64 need to be re-installed. You can refer "http://www.gkaindia.com/failed-when-build-petalinux/" for details.

    Now I have fixed the problem after pretty lengthy investigation.

    (petalinux-readelf missed libz.so.1)

     

    Note that's related to an Ubuntu.x64 17.04 system.

     

    All in all you need to:

    sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
    sudo apt-get install lib32z1

    You can try to fix the issue with this two CMD:

    sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

    sudo apt-get install lib32z1

    You can try it.
