Library Name Change
The kernel shared library required by Xilinx Simulator Interface (XSI) to call functions is renamed in Vivado 2024.2. The library is located at <Vivado Installation Root>/lib/<platform> where <platform> is lnx64.o or win64.o.
The library name has been changed from librdi_simulator_kernel.so (Linux) to libxv_simulator_kernel.so (Linux) and librdi_simulator_kernel.dll (Windows) to xv_simulator_kernel.dll (Windows).
Installer Changes
The 2020.2 release introduced the new HLS product with support for both the AMD Vitis™ unified software platform and AMD Vivado™ tools. As part of this the overall folder structure changes, whereby the Vitis_HLS folder is now at the same root location as the AMD Vivado™ and AMD Vitis™ tools. You will need to update any custom setup scripts from the previous release.
The AMD 2024.2 settings.sh
scripts automatically handle this.
