fpgaflash¶
SYNOPSIS¶
fpgaflash [-h] {user, factory, bmc_bl, bmc_app} file [bdf]
DESCRIPTION¶
fpgaflash updates the various flash devices on an Intel Programmable
Acceleration Card (PAC).
If there are multiple devices in the system, fpgaflash must specify
a bus, device, and function (BDF) to select the correct device. If you
do not specify a BDF, fpgaflash prints out the BDFs of any
compatible devices.
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS¶
There are three positional arguments: flash type, the flash image file, and the BDF.
Flash type: user, factory, bmc_bl, or bmc_app
The first positional argument specifies the type of flash programming. The following table defines the four flash types.
| Flash Type | Description| |—————-
|————————————| |user | Only reprograms
the user FPGA image in flash memory. | |factory | Reprograms
the entire FPGA flash. A catastrophic failure during a factory update
such as a power outage requires a USB cable and quartus_pgm to
recover. | |bmc_bl | Only reprograms the Board Management
Controller (BMC) bootloader image. | |bmc_app | Only reprograms
the (BMC) application firmware image. |
file
Specifies the Raw Programming Data (.rpd) file to program into the
FPGA flash or the Hexadecimal (Intel-Format) File (.hex) file for
the BMC bootloader or application.
bdf
Specifies the BDF of device to program such as 04:00.0 or 0000:04:00.0. This flag is optional when there is a single device in the system.
EXAMPLE¶
fpgaflash user new_image.rpd 0000:04:00.0
Programs new_image.rpd to flash of device with BDF 0000:04:00.0.
