The AMD Vitis™ unified software platform includes three elements that must be installed and configured to work together properly: the Vitis core development kit, the Xilinx Runtime (XRT), and an accelerator card such as the AMD Alveo™ Data Center accelerator card. The requirements of installation and configuration are described in Installation.
If you have the elements of the Vitis software platform installed, you need to setup the environment to run in a specific
command shell by running the following scripts (
.csh
scripts are also provided):
#setup XILINX_VITIS and XILINX_VIVADO variables
source <Vitis_install_path>/settings64.sh
#setup XILINX_XRT
source /opt/xilinx/xrt/setup.shYou can also specify the location of the available platforms for use
with your Vitis IDE by setting the following
environment variable:
export PLATFORM_REPO_PATHS=<path to platforms>Tip: The
PLATFORM_REPO_PATHS environment variable points to
directories containing platform files (.xpfm).
