ES-Linux-Zybo-and-Drivers

Course material for Embedded Systems Laboratory on embedded Linux.

Verified environment (May 2024):

• Zynq Zybo-700 (the board lost support and repos do not explicitly support it anymore)
• Ubuntu 18.04 for software builds
• Vivado 2021.2 for hardware design
• Xilinx SDK 2019.1
  • Only for building the FSBL from sources (not mandatory)

Docker container

Aligning the necessary libraries and compilers for building the necessary boot components under Linux_Zybo is tricky and hard to reproduce. For convenvience, a Dockerfile is provided in docker/ folder to build a verified docker image based on Ubuntu 18.04 and with the necessary tools installed.

Build and launch the docker image by sourcing the scripts in the folder:

$ source docker_build.sh
$ source docker_run.sh

Notes

1. If using the docker image, sourcing the script 0_install_prerequisites.sh is not necessary.

2. Building the source under Linux_Drivers does not require any container, since it uses the buildroot's toolchain.
