Replace PLM and PMC CDO in SSIT PDIs - 2022.2 English

Bootgen supports replacing PLM, PMC CDO and PSM for Monolithic devices, by taking the PDI as input.

Keeping in view, the SSIT devices and future requirements - the replace functionality is now done by taking the bif as input, instead of boot image.

This example shows the steps to replacing PLM and PMC DATA.

1. Take a Vivado generated bif (base.bif).
2. Create a new PDI by replacing the PLM (bootloader) from the base bif.

   include: base.bif
   replace_image:
   	  {
   	    image
   	    {
   	      partition 
   			{ type = bootloader, slr = 0, file = plm-v1.elf }
   	        { type = pmcdata, slr = 0, file = pmc_data-v1.cdo }
   		  partition
   	    }
   	   image
   	   {
   	     partition 
   			{ type = bootloader, slr = 1, file = plm-v1.elf }
   	        { type = pmcdata, slr = 1, file = pmc_data-v1.cdo }
   		 partition
   	
   	     partition 
   			{ type = bootloader, slr = 2, file = plm-v1.elf }
   	        { type = pmcdata, slr = 2, file = pmc_data-v1.cdo }
   		 partition
   	   }
   	  }
   	
   

Bootgen replaces respective slr bootloader plm.elf with a new plm_v1.elf and pmcdata with pmc_data-v1.cdos.

Example Bootgen Command to Create a PDI
