Hi Homin, Do you have the ability to sniff packets on your DHCP server? Is your network 1gbe? If you want you can send me your bitstream and I can run it here to see if it's a firmware issue or something specific to your network. Cheers Jack On Wed, 16 Jan 2019, 1:21 am Homin Jiang, wrote: >

Hi Jack: I modified the vivado version from 2018.2 to 2018.1 in a file under cont_microblaze. The compilation is fine and completed. Bitcodes are generated. I have the UART output as following. My problem is the DHCP i guess. Looks like the DHCP didn't work. Usually, the led right next to the

This might be a good opportunity for testing partial reconfig, where we keep the microblaze up and running during reprogram?! Otherwise, if there's a bit of memory on the board, we could fall-back to the current SKARAB programming model which uploads a bitstream to off-chip memory, and then

Hi Jack, Brian and Hong, Thanks for the excellent work and effort - well done to VCU118 team. The development team at SARAO are using Matlab 2018a and Vivado 2018.2 for SKARAB. Further porting effort on this board could be done during the Hardware Porting Workshop taking place later this year in

Since you asked :) This incorporates the 1gbe core which Brian got running on the VCU. All I did was massage the microblaze code we use on SNAP such that it can use this interface, for its comms. In fact, this is part of a broader attempt to harmonize the various Ethernet cores Casper provide

Hi CASPERites, I know a few of you have been playing around with the VCU118 Virtex Ultrascale Plus dev board. For a while the toolflow has been able to compile designs for this board, but without any support for accessing the software registers / brams in the generated bitstream (making the
