4. Installing the OPAE Software Package
The OPAE is a software framework for managing and accessing programmable accelerators (FPGAs).
Note: Python 3 is required to install the OPAE PACSign tool.
Sections RHEL 7.6 : Installing the OPAE Framework from Prebuilt Binaries (RPM), Ubuntu: Installing the OPAE Framework from Prebuilt Binaries (deb), and (Optional) Building and Installing the OPAE Software from Source Code can be skipped if you have already installed OPAE by answering Yes when prompted by the script setup.sh (Acceleration Stack installer package).
After completing the OPAE framework installation, the following software and libraries are available:
- The Intel® FPGA Driver
- The OPAE source at: $OPAE_PLATFORM_ROOT/sw/opae*
- The OPAE software development kit (SDK)
