Introduction

The SDX 2018.3 has a bug which will not let one create a linux platform component from its GUI Tools and one has to use the XSCT terminal in SDX 2018.3 to create the component. Following are the commands to create the linux component.

Launch xsct

Create a new directory and copy your dsa file into this.

cd into this directory

platform -name platform_1 -desc "dualcore_pfm" -hw ./design_1.dsa -out ./output

Create a boot directory.

Copy all boot files into this boot directory and image.ub into the image directory and specify the bif file in boot directory

system -name sysconfig1 -display-name "a53_linux" -boot ./boot

sysconfig config -bif "./boot/linux.bif"

domain -name domain1 -proc psu_cortexa53_0 -os linux -image ./image

domain -runtime c

platform -generate

You will see the platform created in the output/ directory

platforminfo "path to xpfm file in output directory"/xpfm file

The above platforminfo command will dump out the generated platform information.
