-platform-name <software-platform name> Name of the software platform to be generated. -board <board name> Board name for device tree to be generated. Board names available at <DTG Repo>/device_tree/data/kernel_dtsi. -hw <handoff-file> Hardware description file to be used to create the device tree. -out <output-directory> The directory where the software platform needs to be created. Workspace is the default directory, if this option is not specified. -local-repo <directory location> Location of the directory were bsp for git repo is available. Device tree repo gets cloned from git, if this option is not specified. -git-url <Git URL> Git URL of the dtg repo to be cloned. For default repo, click here. |
client.create_platform() | Required Arguments: name = <platform_name> Name of the platform. hw = <handoff_file> Hardware description file to be used to create the platform. emulation_xsa_path = <xsa_path> Path to the Emulation xsa on which the component is created. platform_xpfm_path =<xpfm_path> Xpfm path of existing platorm. Optional Arguments: desc = <description> Description of the platform. os = <os> The OS to be used to create the default domain. cpu = <processor> The processor to be used to create the default domain. domain_name = <domain_name> Name of the domain to be created in the platform. |
Create platform creates a DTS and a platform project. |

-git-branch <Git Branch> Git branch to be checked out. 'xlnx_rel_v<Vitis-release>' is selected by default. -zocl Set zocl flag to enable zocl driver support, default set to False. zocl should only be used when the designs are PL enabled. Only master and xlnx_rel_v2021.2 branch supports zocl property. -overlay Set overlay flag to enable device-tree overlay support, default set to False. -dtsi <custom-dtsi-file list> Include custom-dtsi file in the device tree, if specified. The filepaths must be in the list format. -compile Specify this option to compile the generated dts to create dtb. If this option is not specified, users can manually use dts to compile dtb. For example, dtc -I dts -O dtb -o <file_name>.dtb <file_name>.dts Compile dts(device tree source) or dtsi(device tree source include) files. dtc -I dts -O dtb -f <file_name>.dts -o <file_name>.dtb Convert dts(device tree source) to dtb(device tree blob). dtc -I dtb -O dts -f <file_name>.dtb -o <file_name>.dts Convert dtb(device tree blob) to dts(device tree source). -updateSet update flag to enable existing device tree platform to update with new xsa. |

template = <template_name> Template for creating domain in case of Baremetal platform. "Empty" (Default) no_boot_bsp = <bool> Mark the platform to build without generating boot components. fsbl_target = <fsbl_target> Processor-type for which the existing fsbl has to be generated. This option is valid only for ZU+. "psu_cortexa53_0" (Default) fsbl_path = <path> Fsbl path for custom fsbl. This option is used when no_boot_bsp is opted. pmufw_Elf = <path> Prebuilt fsbl.elf to be used as boot component. This option is used when no_boot_bsp is opted. |
