Test Procedure
These examples rely on a bitstream that's been converted from a *.bit to a *.bin using the Bootgen utility. Below is a simple example of doing this for a non-secure bitstream. For secure bitstreams the examples below provide comments regarding the contents of the required *.bif file that's supplied to Bootgen.
where -arch can specify one of <zynq | zynqmp | versal> for Zynq-7000, ZynqUS+, and Versal, respectively. This will generate a download.bit.bin file is the present directory. For additional details refer to the Bootgen User Guide.
The resulting *.bif file should look like:
Loading of the *.bin bitstream file can then be tested as follows.
Features
- Full Bitstream loading.
- Encrypted and Authenticated Full Bitstream loading.
- Readback of Bitstream(Configuration Data)
- PCAP status available through 'info' sub-command provides information about the state of bitstream programming.
- Bitstream loading is implemented as a blocking call to ensure completion of loading if the command returns without error.
- Relevant commit for ZynqUS+ (as of Xilinx release 2018.1): c055151
