IDCODE and IR length for U50 board

[jbleclere]

Hello, 

I'm trying to go through the "xapp1283-internalprogramming-bbram-efuses" app note except that I'm transposing it to Alveo U50 board. 

Like suggested in the doc, I'm referring to the ug570 to get the IDCODE and IR length but the xcu50 device is not listed.

I ran the xbutil dump to get the IDCODE ("idcode": "0x14b77093") but I've not idea how to get the IR length.

Could you please advice?

Hi @jbleclere,

If you have an Alveo Programming Cable and can connect to the device with Vivado, selecting the device will show the Hardware Device Properties and it will list both the IDCODE and IR_LENGTH.

Attached is a screenshot from another poster that highlights the Hardware Device Properties for the U200:

If you don't have an Alveo Debugging Cable, the U50 IR Length should be 12.

Thanks for your answer.

Going through the rest of the App Note, I now need to know the number of SLR on the xcu50, which is 2 (easily found in the board datasheet) but I can't find which of the 2 SLR is the master: SLR0 or SLR1?

Hi @jbleclere,

If you have the device connected to Vivado you can run the TCL command:

get_slrs -filter IS_MASTER

 For the xcu50 this is SLR0.

Thank you John, your help is very much appreciated.

I've moved a little bit further and now I'm trying to build the internal_prog_bsp from Vitis (chapter "Building the SDK/Vitis Applications" in the XAPP1283 v1.2 app note) butI get this compilation error:

Hi @jbleclere,

As this question/issue is different in nature (compilation vs hw spec), it is best to start a new thread.

Here is my thought on it - from looking at the fatal error, the issue looks to be that the compiler is not able to find the header file xsysmon.h. There may be a larger includes/linking issue at hand, but looking through our git repository of drivers, I am able to find the xsysmon.h file that may help get past the immediate issue:
