Info

Note: To view the sources for a particular release, use the rel-version tag in github.  For example, for the 2020.1 release, the proper version of the code is: https://github.com/Xilinx/embeddedsw/tree/master/XilinxProcessorIPLib/drivers/canps

The driver source code is organized into different folders. The table below shows the canps driver source organization.

Note: AMD Xilinx embeddedsw build flow is changed from 2023.2 release to adapt to the new system device tree based flow. For further information, refer to the wiki page Porting embeddedsw components to system device tree (SDT) based flow - Xilinx Wiki - Confluence (atlassian.net).

The .yaml(in data folder)

and CMakeLists

and CMakeLists.txt(in src folder) files

would be used in

are needed for the System Device Tree based flow. The Driver .tcl and .mdd files are for the older build flow which will be deprecated in the future.
