Build PMUFW


The pmu_fw (PMU Firmware) application is a bare-metal application that executes on the PMU MicroBlaze. It is loaded by the CSU early on in the boot process before the FSBL executes. The application's primary responsibility is to handle power management.

Launch the Xilinx software development kit (XSDK) from the console.

$ cd pmu_fw
$ mkdir workspace
$ xsdk &


  • Close the Welcome screen and import the PMU firmware projects.
  • Click File -> Import... -> General -> Existing Projects into Workspace and click Next.
  • Navigate to the $TRD_HOME/pmu_fw directory using the Browse button.
  • Select the pmu_fw, pmu_fw_bsp, and zcu102_base_trd_hw_platform projects.
  • Click Finish.



  • Build the imported projects:
    • o Right-click on the pmu_fw project and select Build Project.
  • The generated elf file will be placed at pmu_fw/Debug/pmu_fw.elf.
  • Use this image while generating SD card images

Build HEARTBEAT Application


use SDK to build

$ xsdk
create a new workspace

ex: rpu0_hbt
import the checked-out sources:

File -> Import -> General -> Existing Projects into Workspace
click <Next>
click <Browse>
select folder: 2_rpu0_freertos_app/heartbeat
click <OK>

select projects:
heartbeat
heartbeat_bsp
zcu102_base_trd_wrapper_hw_platform_0

click <Finish>
Change the ldscript (load addresses):

Build the rpu0_hbt image:

Right click on project: heartbeat

Clean Project
Right click on project: heartbeat

Build Project
This will create heartbeat/Debug/heartbeat.elf


PERFAPM-SERVER


This project is targeted to RPU and it is split into 3 parts as below:
  • PerfAPM Library

  • PerfAPM-CTL application
    • This is a standalone application executed on RPU
    • This application does not support RPmsg (remote procedure calls) library
    • This application links the perfapm library statically.

  • PerfAPM-Server application
    • This is a standalone application executed on RPU
    • This application supports RPmsg (remote procedure calls) library and provide APM numbers over IPC
    • This application links the perfapm library statically.

Build PERFAPM Library


use SDK to build

$ xsdk
create a new workspace

ex: rpu1_perfapm

click <Browse>
select folder: 3_rpu1_baremetal_app/perfapm-server
click <OK>

select projects:
perfapm : library with common APIs
perfapm-server : baremetal application with IPC (static link with perfapm)
perfapm-server-ctl : baremetal application without IPC (static link with perfapm)
perfapm-server_bsp
zcu102_base_trd_wrapper_hw_platform_0

click <Finish>

Build the perfapm image:
Right click on project: perfapm
Clean Project
Right click on project: perfapm
Build Project
This will create perfapm/Debug/libperfapm.a


Build PERFAPM-SERVER-CTL Application


Build the perfapm-server-ctl image:

Change the ldscript (load addresses):
Right click on project: perfapm-server-ctl
Clean Project
Right click on project: perfapm-server-ctl
Build Project

This will create perfapm-server-ctl/Debug/perfapm-server-ctl.elf
(libperfapm.a is part of perfapm-server-ctl.elf)

Build PERFAPM-SERVER Application


Build the perfapm-server image:

Change the ldscript (load addresses):
Right click on project: perfapm-server
Clean Project
Right click on project: perfapm-server
Build Project

This will create perfapm-server/Debug/perfapm-server.elf
(libperfapm.a is part of perfapm-server.elf)

PERFAPM-CLIENT


This project is targeted to APU and it is split into 2 parts as below:
  • PerfAPM-Client Library

  • PerfAPM-client-unittest application
    • This is a Linux application executed on APU
    • This application supports RPmsg (remote procedure calls) library and fetches APM numbers over IPC
    • This application links the perfapm-client library statically.

Build PERFAPM-CLIENT Library


use SDK to build

$ xsdk
create a new workspace
ex: perfapm-client
import the checked-out sources:
File -> Import -> General -> Existing Projects into Workspace
click <Next>
click <Browse>
select folder: 4_apu_rpu_ipc/perfapm-client
click <OK>

select projects:
perfapm-client
perfapm-client-unittest
click <Finish>
Build the perfapm-client-unittest image:

Right click on project: perfapm-client
Clean Project
Right click on project: perfapm-client
Build Project

This will create Debug/libperfapm-client.a

Build PERFAPM-CLIENT-UNITTEST Application

Build the perfapm-client-unittest image:

Right click on project: perfapm-client-unittest

Clean Project

Right click on project: perfapm-client-unittest

Build Project
This will create Debug/perfapm-client-unittest.elf

Build FILTER2D


Checkout zcu102_base_trd_sdsoc_pfm

https://gitenterprise.xilinx.com/PAEG/zcu102_base_trd_sdsoc_pfm
Start SDSoC tool

Create new SDSoC project under 'File' -> 'New' -> 'SDSoC Project'

- Select target platform 'zcu102_base_trd'
- Select OS 'Linux'
- Check 'Shared Library' box
- Enter project name
- Click 'Next' and select desired template
- Click 'Finish'
Right-click the generated sample project and select 'C/C++ Settings'

Switch to the 'Build Artifact' tab and set 'Output prefix' to lib

For design-7, remove filter2d_sds() from the accelerator
For design-8, add filter2d_sds() to the accelerator

Right-click the sample project and select 'Build Project'

This will create 2 files:
SDDebug/filter2d.so
SDDebug/filter2d.so.bit

Build FSBL

FSBL can be created in 2 ways:
  • using XSDK tool
  • using PetaLinux tool

Build FSBL using XSDK


Launch SDK tool

$ xsdk &

create a new workspace
ex: default_fsbl

start new application project:
File -> New -> Application Project
Project name: default_fsbl
OS platform: standalone

Hardware platform: ZynqMP_ZCU102_hw_platform (pre-defined)
Processor (select any of these): psu_cortexa53_0/ psu_cortexa53_1/
psu_cortexa53_2/ psu_cortexa53_4/
psu_cortexr5_0/ psu_cortexr5_1
click <Next>

select: Zynq MP FSBL
Click <Finish>

Build the default_fsbl image:
Right click on project: default_fsbl
Build Project

This will create default_fsbl/default_fsbl.elf

Build FSBL using PetaLinux


Update the hardware definition file into hw-description

$ rm zynqmp_petalinux_bsp/hw-description/*.hdf
$ cp design.hdf zynqmp_petalinux_bsp/hw-description/

Create FSBL project with new hardware settings
$ cd zynqmp_petalinux_bsp
$ petalinux-config --get-hw-description=./hw-description --oldconfig

Build FSBL
$ petalinux-build -c bootloader

This will create zynqmp_petalinux_bsp/images/linux/zynqmp_fsbl.elf

Build Linux Kernel


  • Goto the Petalinux BSP folder
$ cd zynqmp_petalinux_bsp

  • Hardware configuration
$ petalinux-config --get-hw-description=./hw-description --oldconfig

  • Modifications in Device tree
The default devicetree includes some PL based driver nodes. Remove these nodes, as this design has no PL based design.
$ vi subsystems/linux/configs/device-tree/system-top.dts
  • Comment fmc-hdmi-cam.dtsi, pl.dtsi, openamp-overlay.dtsi
/*#include "fmc-hdmi-cam.dtsi"*/
/*#include "pl.dtsi"*/
/*#include "openamp-overlay.dtsi"*/
Save this file.

  • Build the images
$ petalinux-build

This completes the Linux kernel image build.
