1.4.3.1.2. Installing the Linux Kernel Driver

To install the kernel driver, do the following:

  1. Navigate to ./software/kernel/Linux under the design example generation directory.
  2. Change the permissions on the install, load, and unload files with the following command:

    $ chmod 777 install load unload

  3. Install the driver with the following command:

    $ sudo ./install

  4. Verify the driver installation with the following command:

    $ lsmod | grep intel_fpga_pcie_drv

    An example of a returned result is “intel_fpga_pcie_drv 17792 0”.

  5. Verify the PCIe* configuration space information with the following command:

    $ lspci -vv

    The following figure shows an example of PCIe* configuration space information.

  6. Verify that Linux recognizes the PCIe* design example with the following command:

    $ lspci -d 1172:000 -v | grep intel_fpga_pcie_drv

    The expected result returned should be “Kernel driver in use: intel_fpga_pcie_drv” as shown in the following figure.

  7. Verify the BDF of the Intel® Stratix® 10 GX Development Kit with the following command:

    $ lspci -d 1172:000

    The figure below shows an example of the BDF results.
