Definition

struct ert_packet {

{unnamed_union}: anonymous
cu_mask: first mandatory CU mask
data: count-1 number of words representing interpreted payload

Description

The packet payload is comprised of reserved id field, a mandatory CU mask, and extra_cu_masks per header field, followed by a CU register map of size (count - (1 + extra_cu_masks)) uint32_t words.

data: addresses of num_cus CUs

struct ert_configure_sk_cmd¶

Definition

struct ert_configure_sk_cmd {
  union {unnamed_union};
  uint32_t start_cuidx;
  uint32_t num_cus;
  uint32_t sk_size;
  uint32_t sk_name;

struct ert_unconfigure_sk_cmd¶

Definition

struct ert_unconfigure_sk_cmd {
  union {unnamed_union};
  uint32_t start_cuidx;
  uint32_t num_cus;
};

Members

{unnamed_union}: anonymous

  union {unnamed_union};
};

Members

{unnamed_union}: anonymous

ERT_WORD_SIZE()¶

Parameters

ERT_STATUS_REGISTER_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

MicroBlaze write, host reads. MB(W) / HOST(COR)

ERT_CU_DMA_ENABLE_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

on a specific CU. MB selects a free CU on which the command can run, then writes the 1<<CU back to the command slot CU mask and writes the slot index to the CU DMA REGISTER. HW is notified when the register is written and now does the DMA transfer of CU regmap map from command to CU, while MB continues its work. MB(W) / HW(R)

ERT_CQ_SLOT_SIZE_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

configurable per xclbin. MB(W) / HW(R)

ERT_CU_OFFSET_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

example a 64K regmap is 2^16 so 16 is written to the CU_OFFSET_ADDR. MB(W) / HW(R)

ERT_CQ_NUMBER_OF_SLOTS_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

MB(W) / HW(R)

ERT_CU_BASE_ADDRESS_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

CU_BASE_ADDRESS is the address of the first CU. MB(W) / HW(R)

ERT_CQ_BASE_ADDRESS_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

MB(W) / HW(R)

ERT_CU_ISR_HANDLER_ENABLE_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

CU interrupts. When a CU interrupts (when done), hardware handles the interrupt and writes the index of the CU that completed into the CU_STATUS_REGISTER (HW(W)/MB(COR)) as a bitmask

ERT_CQ_STATUS_ENABLE_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

MB to indicate the presense of a new command in some slot. The slot index is written to the CQ_STATUS_REGISTER (HOST(W)/MB(R))

ERT_NUMBER_OF_CU_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

xclbin. This is an optimization that allows HW to only check CU completion on actual CUs.

ERT_HOST_INTERRUPT_ENABLE_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

When enabled writing to STATUS_REGISTER causes an interrupt in HOST. MB(W)

ERT_INTC_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

This value is per hardware BSP (XPAR_INTC_SINGLE_BASEADDR)

ERT_CUISR_LUT_ADDR()¶

Parameters

ERT_EXIT_CMD()¶

Parameters

ERT_HLS_MODULE_IDLE()¶

Parameters

ERT_INTC_IPR_ADDR()¶

Parameters

Description

CU are enabled
