  • FPGA developer kit now supports Xilinx SDx/Vivado 2019.1

    • We recommend developers upgrade to v1.4.11 to benefit from the new features, bug fixes, and optimizations.
    • To upgrade, use Developer AMI v1.7.0 on the AWS Marketplace. The Developer Kit scripts (hdk_setup.sh or sdaccel_setup.sh) will detect the tool version and update the environment based on requirements needed for Xilinx 2019.1 tools.
  • New functionality:

    • Added a developer resources section that provides guides on how to setup your own GUI Desktop and compute cluster environment.
    • Developers can now ask for AFI limit increases via the AWS Support Center Console.
      • Create a case to increase your EC2 FPGA service limit from the console.
    • HLx IPI flow updates
      • HLx support for AXI Fast Memory mode.
      • HLx support for 3rd party simulations.
      • HLx support for changes in shell and AWS IP updates(e.g. sh_ddr).
  • Bug Fixes:

  • Deprecations:

    • Removed GUI Setup scripts from AMI v1.7.0 onwards. See the developer resources section that provides guides on how to setup your own GUI Desktop and compute cluster environment.
  • Package versions used for validation
