Why do I get the following error during the Quartus® II Analysis & Synthesis when upgrading an Avalon Memory-Mapped (Avalon-MM) Stratix® V Hard IP for PCI Express IP core design from version 12.1 to 13.0?

Environment

  • Quartus® II Subscription Edition
  • Avalon-MM Arria® V Hard IP for PCI Express Intel® FPGA IP
  • BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
    Description

    You will get the following error message during Quartus® II Analysis & Synthesis when upgrading an Avalon®-MM Stratix® V Hard IP for PCI Express® IP core design from version 12.1 to 13.0.

    Error (12077): Node instance "auto_hub" instantiated with unknown parameter "BROADCAST_FEATURE"

    There is an issue when creating a Quartus® II archive.  The ./megafunctions folder should not be included when archiving the Quartus® II project in a .qar file.

     

     

    Resolution

    To workaround this issue, remove the ./megafunctions folder from the archive.
