Before migrating to a new target platform, you should also determine if you will need to target the new platform to a different release of the Vitis technology. If you intend to target a new release, Xilinx highly recommends to first target the existing platform using the new software release to confirm there are no changes required, and then migrate to a new target platform.

There are two steps to follow when targeting a new release with an existing platform:

  • Host Code Migration
  • Release Migration
Important: Before migrating to a new release, Xilinx recommends that you review the Vitis Software Platform Release Notes.
