3.6. Verifying Host Runtime Functionality via Emulation
Test the functionality of the host runtime by emulating an OpenCL™ design example using the Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ Emulator.
Important: Before you proceed, review Emulating and Debugging Your OpenCL Kernel topic of the Intel FPGA SDK OpenCL Pro Edition: Programming Guide.
- Verify that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable setting includes the paths identified in Setting the Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ User Environment Variables. Open a shell and then type echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH at the command prompt.
If the returned path do not include $INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT/host/linux64/lib, add it to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting.
- Accessing an OpenCL Design Example
The $INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT/examples_aoc contains sample applications of varying complexities that you can copy to your local and run on your FPGA. - Compiling a Kernel for Emulation
To compile an OpenCL™ kernel for emulation, include the -march=emulator option in your aoc command. - Building the Host Application
Build the host executable with the <local_path_to_exm_opencl_hello_world>/hello_world/Makefile file. - Emulating Your OpenCL Kernel
To emulate your OpenCL™ kernel, run the emulation .aocx file on the platform on which you built your kernel. The OpenCL Emulator uses a different OpenCL platform than when targeting FPGA hardware.
