In this brief demo, we will show how to use the HSI to extract info from a HDF file, and how this can be used to create a XSCT file that can be used to boot over JTAG. This is ideal for when users want to preform a board bringup,

and might have to make some updates to the HDF and test on HW.

HSI introduction:

Users can see the wiki here, for an introduction into how to use the HSI to create applications from command line. Users should conult the XSCT user guide for a complete list

of API

Using HSI to create JTAG Boot script:

There is a TCL script added here (xsct_script.tcl) that will preform the following tasks based on the HDF file passed to it:

• extract board info
• extract device family
• cross check applications on target device
• create / compile applications if not already existing
  • Users can add a -force
• create a jtag boot script based on the applications created
  • If there is no fsbl application then the script will use the psu_init.tcl

Creating the JTAG Boot script:

To test, download the script above, and source in XSCT 2018.3

To build:

source xsct_script.tcl
build_script -hw <path to HDF> -apps <list of apps to be built>

Users, can also pass a -force to force the script to overwrite any existing applications. For example:

build_script -hw <path to HDF> -apps <list of apps to be built> -force

If users want to easily share, or store all the file used here, then there use the package option:

build_script -hw <path to HDF> -apps <list of apps to be built> -package

This will create a folder called packaged_files, and will populate this folder with all the files used in the generated boot script.

This will create the jtag_boot.tcl file, similar to below:

# Set up connection 

#if this is a remote connection. Then use something like:
#connect -url TCP:XIRSTEPHENM32:3121
#or, if local, then just use
connect

# Add the Microblaze PMU to target
targets -set -nocase -filter {name =~ "PSU"}
mwr 0xFFCA0038 0x1FF
# Download PMUFW to PMU
target -set -filter {name =~ "MicroBlaze PMU"}
dow zynqmp_pmufw/executable.elf
con

# Configuring PSU
targets -set -nocase -filter {name =~ "PSU"}
source psu_init.tcl
psu_init
after 500
psu_post_config
after 500
psu_ps_pl_reset_config
after 500
psu_ps_pl_isolation_removal
after 500

# write bootloop and release A53-0 reset
targets -set -nocase -filter {name =~ "PSU"}
mwr 0xffff0000 0x14000000
mwr 0xFD1A0104 0x380E

# Download Hello World to A53 #0
targets -set -filter {name =~ "Cortex-A53 #0"}
dow hello_world/executable.elf
con
after 500
stop

Testing the JTAG Boot script:

Follow the steps below to run the generated script here:

• Set boot mode to JTAG mode. See page 232
• Power on the Board
• Source the jtag_boot.tcl from the same directory it was created in

Creating a BOOT.BIN file:

This script also supports the creation of a BOOT.BIN file from the auto-generated boot images.

source xsct_script.tcl
build_hw -hw <path to HDF> -apps <insert apps here> -boot

For example:

source xsct_script.tcl
build_hw -hw design_1_wrapper -apps zynqmp_fsbl zynqmp_pmufw -boot

This will automatically generate an fsbl, pmufw. Then a BIF file will be generated, and bootgen will be called to create the BOOT.BIN file.
