To compile the graph type to be used in either HW or HW_EMU, use:
make aie TARGET=hw
Or
v++ -c --mode aie --target hw --platform $PLATFORM_REPO_PATHS/xilinx_vck190_base_202420_1/xilinx_vck190_base_202420_1.xpfm --include "$XILINX_VITIS/aietools/include" --include "./aie" --include "./data" --include "./aie/kernels" --include "./" --aie.xlopt=0 --work_dir=./Work aie/graph.cpp
The generated output from aiecompiler is the Work directory, and the libadf.a file. This file contains the compiled AI Engine configuration, graph, and Kernel .elf files.
