Step 11: Export the Hardware Platform for each Configuration - 2021.2 English

The final step in the hardware flow is to export the platform for PetaLinux. This fixed Xilinx® Support Archive (XSA) platform will contain the full device bitstream as well as hardware handoff and other files needed to build a PetaLinux system in . In this release of Vivado® , these .xsa files do not include partial bitstreams; this enhancement will come in a future version of Vivado.

1. Open the impl_1 design run by right-clicking on that run and selecting Open Run.
2. Select File > Export > Export Hardware.
3. Select the Include device image option and click Next.
4. Add “_impl_1” to the XSA file name, then change the Export to the directory to the xsa/parent_xsa folder beside the current project directory. Click Next, then Finish to write the XSA.
