Embedded Runtime Library

XRT Embedded Runtime definition

Header file ert.h defines data structures used by Emebdded Runtime (ERT) and XRT xclExecBuf() API.

struct ert_packet

Definition

struct ert_packet {
  union {unnamed_union};
  uint32_t data;
};

Members

{unnamed_union}
anonymous
data
count number of words representing packet payload
struct ert_start_kernel_cmd

Definition

struct ert_start_kernel_cmd {
  union {unnamed_union};
  uint32_t cu_mask;
  uint32_t data;
};

Members

{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.

struct ert_dpu_data

interpretation of data payload for ERT_START_DPU

Definition

struct ert_dpu_data {
  uint64_t instruction_buffer;
  uint32_t instruction_buffer_size;
  uint32_t chained;
};

Members

instruction_buffer
address of instruction buffer
instruction_buffer_size
size of instruction buffer in bytes
chained
number of following ert_dpu_data elements

Description

The ert_dpu_data is prepended to data payload of ert_start_kernel_cmd after any extra cu masks. The payload count of the ert packet is incremented with the size (words) of ert_dpu_data elements preprended to the data payload.

The data payload for ERT_START_DPU is interpreted as fixed instruction buffer address along with instruction count, followed by regular kernel arguments.

struct ert_init_kernel_cmd

Definition

struct ert_init_kernel_cmd {
  union {unnamed_union};
  uint32_t cu_mask;
  uint32_t data;
};

Members

{unnamed_union}
anonymous
cu_mask
first mandatory CU mask
data
count-9 number of words representing interpreted payload

Description

this command initializes CUs by writing CU registers. CUs are represented by cu_mask and extra_cu_masks.

cu_run_timeout the configured CU timeout value in Microseconds
setting to 0 means CU should not timeout
cu_reset_timeout the configured CU reset timeout value in Microseconds
when CU timeout, CU will be reset. this indicates CU reset should be completed within the timeout value. if cu_run_timeout is set to 0, this field is undefined.

The packet payload is comprised of reserved id field, 8 reserved fields, a mandatory CU mask, and extra_cu_masks per header field, followed by a CU register map of size (count - (9 + extra_cu_masks)) uint32_t words.

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
