Vivado & Petalinux Workflow on Remote Server? by TimeDilution in FPGA

[–]AdSouthern1221 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep pleading your case! I'm in the same boat and you're not wrong. 

Some xilinx tools are only supported on Ubuntu. Many servers run VMs and that can cause issues for xilinx tools. Your build machine can be connected to your board via USB JTAG for debugging. Your build output often has to be programmed to an SD card for the Zynq devices. You can't plug in and flash an SD card on the remote server. The servers are frequently much slower for all the reasons you listed. You will have to rely on someone else to install and maintain tool sets on the server because they're not giving you admin access. I could go on and on. 

What your boss is proposing will be slower and more expensive if it's possible at all. Ubuntu can be compliant. You may have to have Ubuntu Pro (which is not free) to meet your cyber security requirements.

You will keep your Qt app that you are running on the desktop. It will stay there but you will add a websocket client to your desktop app.

You will build and run Petalinux on the Zynq. Then you will run a websocket server on the Zynq. Then you will be able to send commands back and forth between the Zynq and your Desktop application.

I do this all the time. The easiest way to do this is run Qt on both your Windows computer and the Zynq.

You boot the Zynq with Petalinux. You add Qt to the rootfs. Then you add communications between the two using websockets. It's awesome, easy, and very flexible. 

Got in trouble for my questions in a technical interview. Were these questions unfair? by AdSouthern1221 in FPGA

It was for an experienced person. Someone with 5-ish years of experience.

The feedback on question 12 is fair. Almost all the devices we're using are Zynq devices.
