Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) includes a first region being static and providing an interface between the IC and a host processor. The first region includes a first interconnect circuit block having a first master interface and a second interconnect circuit block having a first slave interface. The IC includes a second region coupled to the first region. The second region implements a kernel of a heterogeneous, multiprocessor design and includes a slave interface coupled to the first master interface of the first interconnect circuit block and configured to receive commands from the host processor. The second region also includes a master interface coupled the first slave interface of the second interconnect circuit block, wherein the master interface of the second region is a master for a memory controller.

Abstract: A software development-based compilation flow for circuit design may include executing, using a processor, a makefile including a plurality of rules for hardware implementation. Responsive to executing a first rule of the plurality of rules, a source file including a kernel specified in a high level programming language may be selected; and, an intermediate file specifying a register transfer level implementation of the kernel may be generated using the processor. Responsive to executing a second rule of the plurality of rules, a configuration bitstream for a target integrated circuit may be generated from the intermediate file using the processor. The configuration bitstream includes a compute unit circuit implementation of the kernel.

Abstract: OpenCL program compilation may include generating, using a processor, a register transfer level (RTL) description of a first kernel of a heterogeneous, multiprocessor design and integrating the RTL description of the first kernel with a base platform circuit design. The base platform circuit design provides a static interface within a programmable integrated circuit to a host of the heterogeneous, multiprocessor design. A first configuration bitstream may be generated from the RTL description of the first kernel using the processor. The first configuration bitstream specifies a hardware implementation of the first kernel and supporting data for the configuration bitstream. The first configuration bitstream and the supporting data may be included within a binary container.
