1. Xilinx
®
runtime (XRT) installation requires Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) and a
related repository. The initial setup depends on whether you are using RedHat or CentOS.
For Redhat:
a. Open a terminal window and enter the following command:
$ sudo yum-config-manager --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms
This enables an additional repository on your system.
b. Enter the following command to install EPEL:
$ sudo yum install -y https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-
release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
For CentOS, enter the following command in a terminal window:
$ sudo yum install epel-release
This installs and enables the repository for Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL).
Your operating system might require additional dependencies before installing XRT and the
deployment shell. See
2. Run the following two commands to install kernel headers and kernel development packages.
Ensure that uname is surounded by backticks (`) and not single quotes ('):
$ sudo yum install kernel-headers-`uname -r`
$ sudo yum install kernel-devel-`uname -r`
:
Note
If these yum command fail because they can't find packages matching your kernel version, you need
to setup a Vault repository. For more information, see
3. After the above command finishes running, reboot your machine.
