About the SDSoC Installation
The installation of SDSoC™ includes the following:
- SDSoC environment, including an Eclipse/CDT-based GUI, high-level system compiler, and ARM GNU toolchain
- Vivado® Design Suite System Edition, with Vivado High-Level Synthesis (HLS) and the Xilinx® Software Development Kit (SDK)
The SDSoC environment includes the same GNU ARM toolchain included with the Xilinx Software Development Kit (SDK), which also provides additional tools used by the SDSoC environment. The SDSoC environment setup script sets PATH variables to use this toolchain.
More information about the SDSoC installation:
- The provided toolchains contain 32-bit executables, requiring your Linux host OS installation to include 32-bit compatibility libraries.
- RHEL 6 and 7 64-bit x86 Linux installations might not include the 32-bit compatibility libraries, and might need to be added separately; see https://access.redhat.com/site/solutions/36238.
- On RHEL, 32-bit compatibility libraries can be installed by becoming a superuser (or root) with root access privileges and running the yum install glibc.i686 command.
- On Ubuntu, 32-bit compatibility libraries can be installed by becoming a superuser (or root) with root access privileges and running the following commands. Refer toSDSoC Development Environment Featuresfor additional information.
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 dpkg-dev:i386 sudo ln -s /usr/bin/make /usr/bin/gmake- The version of the toolchain can be displayed by running thearm-linux-gnueabihf-g++ -vcommand.
- The last line of the output printed in the shell window should be GCC version 4.9.2 20140904 (pre-release)(crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-4.9-2014.09 - Linaro GCC 4.9-2014.09).
