XRT requires C++14 compiler and a few development libraries bundled with modern Linux
distribution. Please install the necessary tools and dependencies
using the provided src/runtime_src/tools/scripts/xrtdeps.sh
On RHEL/CentOS use devtoolset to switch to C++14 devlopment environment. This step is not applicable to Ubuntu which already has C++14 capable GCC.
scl enable devtoolset-6 bash
cd build ./build.sh
build.sh script builds for both Debug and Release profiles. On RHEL/CentOS, if build.sh was accidentally run prior to enabling the devtoolset, then it is necessary to clean stale files makefiles by running build.sh clean prior to the next build.
The package is actually automatically built for the Release
version but not for the Debug version:
cd build/Release make package cd ../Debug make package
Install from inside either the Release or Debug directory
according to purpose with (the actual package name might differ)
sudo yum reinstall ./XRT-2.1.0-Linux.rpm
Install from inside either the Release or Debug directory
according to purpose with (the actual package name might differ)
sudo apt install --reinstall ./xrt_201830.2.1.0_18.10.deb
XRT Documentation can be built automatically using Sphinx doc builder
together with Linux kernel based kernel-doc utility.
To compile and install the documentation into the doc directory at
the top of the repository:
cd build ./build.sh docs # To browse the generated local documentation with a web browser: xdg-open Release/runtime_src/doc/html/index.html
