Creating a Library

Xilinx provides a utility called sdslib that allows the creation of SDSoC libraries.

Usage

sdslib [arguments] [options]

Arguments (mandatory)

Argument	Description
-lib <libname>	Library name to create or append to
`<function_name file_name>+`	One or more `<function, file>` pairs. For example: `fir fir.c`
-vlnv <v>:<l>:<n>:<v>	Use IP core specified by this vlnv. For example, -vlnv xilinx.com:ip:fir_compiler:7.1
-ip-map <file>	Use specified <file> as IP function map
-ip-params <file>	Use specified <file> as IP parameters
-pfunc	IP core is a platform function

Option	Description
-ip-repo <path>	Add HDL IP repository search path
-target-os <name>	Specify target Operating System linux (default) standalone (bare-metal)
--help	Display this information
-target-cpu <name>	Specify target CPU cortex-a9 (default) cortex-a53 cortex-r5 microblaze

As an example, to create an SDSoC library for a

fir
                    filter

IP core, call:

 > sdslib -lib libfir.a \ 
     fir fir.c \ 
     fir_reload fir_reload.c \ 
     fir_config fir_config.c \ 
     -vlnv xilinx.com:ip:fir_compiler:7.1 \
     -ip-map fir_compiler.fcnmap.xml \ 
     -ip-params fir_compiler.params.xml

In the above example, sdslib uses the functions fir (in file fir.c), fir_reload (in file fir_reload.c) and fir_config (in file fir_config.c) and archives them into the libfir.a static library. The fir_compiler IP core is specified using -vlnv and the function map and IP parameters are specified with –ip-map and –ip-params respectively.
