The Altera SDK for OpenCL (AOCL) setup process includes downloading and installing the software,
installing the Cyclone V SoC Development Kit, and then executing an OpenCL kernel on the SoC.
1.
Upgrading to Current Version of AOCL for Cyclone V SoC
on page 2-2
If you have been using a previous version of the Altera SDK for OpenCL (AOCL) to program your
Cyclone V SoC Development Kit, you must upgrade the software programs and files to the current
version.
2.
Downloading the Altera SDK for OpenCL
Download the AOCL and all related software for Windows from the Download Center on the Altera
website.
3.
on page 2-3
Download the SoC Embedded Design Suite (EDS) for Windows from the Download Center on the
Altera website.
4.
Installing the Altera SDK for OpenCL
on page 2-3
Install the AOCL in a folder that you own.
5.
Setting the Environment Variables for Windows
on page 2-4
Set the PATH user environment variable to point to Altera SDK for OpenCL (AOCL) libraries.
6.
on page 2-5
To use the Altera SDK for OpenCL to create OpenCL kernel programs that target a Cyclone V SoC,
install the Altera SoC Embdded Design Suite (EDS) on your host system to develop the corresponding
embedded software.
7.
Obtain the AOCL license from the Altera Self Service Licensing Center.
8.
Installing the Cyclone V SoC Development Kit
on page 2-6
To execute an OpenCL kernel on a Cyclone V SoC, first install the Cyclone V SoC Development Kit
and configure it as described in the Altera SDK for OpenCL (AOCL) documentation.
9.
Creating the Hardware Configuration File of an OpenCL Kernel for SoC
To create the
.aocx
file for the hello_world example OpenCL application, you must download the
example design from the OpenCL Design Examples page on the Altera website. Extract the
downloaded source files, and then compile the kernel using the Altera Offline Compiler (AOC).
10.
Executing an OpenCL Kernel on an SoC
Build your host application using the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) cross-compiler available with
the SoC Embedded Design Suite (EDS).
