No VxWorks entry in Xilinx SDK V14.7 BSP window

[_kumar]

Hi There!

I'm trying to create a project to run VxWorks on PPC440 of Virtex 5 FPGA using Xilinx ISE 14.7.

I'm following the xilinx manual XAPP1114.

While creating a new bsp project, I'm not able to find the VxWorks entry option under OS:

Please suggest how to enable vxworks

hi,

xapp1114 is targeting EDK 10.1. can you check any previous releases?

Hi, Thanks for your input.

I'm following the XAPP1114 note but, I have Xilinx ISE 14.7 version and I have to use this and generate an VxWorks v6.7 BSP.

I'm able to see directories in Xilinx installation related to VxWorks @ C:\Xilinx\14.7\ISE_DS\EDK\sw\ThirdParty\bsp\vxworks6_7_v1_03_a, but VxWorks option is not visible in New BSP creation window of Xilinx SDK. I'm looking on how to enable this in Xilinx SDK 14.7.

Hi,

If you have Vxworks BSP compiled for boards like you have pointed out for e.g. - 'C:\Xilinx\14.7\ISE_DS\EDK\sw\ThirdParty\bsp\vxworks6_7_v1_03_a it can be enabled by editing in  its MLD file.

All you need to do is make parameter OPTION OS_STATE = ACTIVE;  in .mld file.

Once you save the file export design to SDK and create BSP. It should generate bsp.

Hi @pvenugo, Thanks for your reply and it works. I'm able to create vxworks bsp in xilinx 14p7 SDK.
