6.2. Implementation of CvP Update Mode

CvP update mode is a reconfiguration scheme to deliver an updated bitstream to a target device after the device enters user mode.

You must specify this mode in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software by selecting the CvP Settings Initialization and Update. The following figure provides the high-level steps for CvP update mode.

Figure 15. Example Implementation Flow for CvP Update
The CvP update mode demonstration walkthrough includes the following steps:

Instantiating the PCIe Hard IP
Setting Up the CvP Parameters
Setting up the Base Revision
Setting up and Compile the Updated Revision
Converting the SOF file of the Updated Revision
Programming the Core RBF file from the Updated Revision via PCIe Link
