The petalinux-create command is used to
create a new PetaLinux project:
petalinux-create project --template <PLATFORM> --name <PROJECT_NAME>The parameters are as follows:
-
--template <PLATFORM>- The following platform types are supported:-
versal(for Versal adaptive SoC) -
zynqMP(for Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC) -
zynq(for Zynq 7000 devices) -
microblaze(for MicroBlaze processor)Note: The MicroBlaze template option is not supported for Zynq 7000, Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC, or Versal device families.
-
-
--name <PROJECT_NAME>- The name of your project.This command creates a new PetaLinux project folder from a default template.
For more information, see Importing Hardware Configuration.
CAUTION:
When a PetaLinux
project is created on NFS,
petalinux-create automatically changes
its TMPDIR to /tmp/<projname-timestamp>.
If /tmp is on NFS, it throws an error. You can change the TMPDIR to local storage
while creating the PetaLinux project by running petalinux-create project -s <PATH_TO_PETALINUX_PROJECT_BSP> --tmpdir
<TMPDIR PATH> or selecting petalinux-config → Yocto-settings → TMPDIR. Do not configure the
same location as TMPDIR for two different PetaLinux projects. This can cause build
errors. If TMPDIR is at /tmp/.., deleting the project does not delete the TMPDIR. To
delete the TMPDIR, run petalinux-build -x
mrproper.
