6. Compiling the Accelerator Function (AF)

To generate a synthesis build environment to compile an AF, use the afu_synth_setup command as following:
  1. Change to the streaming DMA AFU sample directory:
    cd $OPAE_PLATFORM_ROOT/hw/samples/streaming_dma_afu
  2. Generate the design build directory:
    afu_synth_setup --source hw/rtl/filelist.txt build_synth
  3. From the synthesis build directory generated by afu_synth_setup, enter the following commands from a terminal window to generate an AF for the target hardware platform:
    cd build_synth
    
    run.sh

The run.sh AF generation script creates the AF image with the same base filename as the AFU’s platform configuration file with a .gbs suffix at the location: $OPAE_PLATFORM_ROOT/hw/samples/build_synth/streaming_dma_afu.gbs.
