Could not run Programming Examples on HX 370

[ngdymx]

I just bought a beelink SER9 mini pc with HX370 CPU. I have successfully installed the xrt and mlir-aie on it. Here is the output of the xrt-smi examine command:

However, when I tried to run the programming examples, I found only the examples with no kernel (passthrough_dmas) could run while all examples with kernels (passthrough_kernel) could not run with the error of std::runtime_error. Also, I found in the AIE Dialect, the supported devices are npu1, npu1_<1, 2, 3, 4>col, and npu2. I tried to used npu2 but it still doesn't work. May I ask how to use all AIE cores in the HX 370? Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the interest in running our examples on the latest and greatest hardware. The passthrough example should work with the Makefile in the yet to be merged PR #1879. You are correct to use npu2 for this programming example, and we still need to implement the per column device types.

Thanks, I will try it.

This enabled some examples, more to follow soon. Thanks for trying!

Hi @jgmelber,

I reinstall the environment, and run the xrt-smi examine can get the RyzenAI-npu4.

Then I try to run the example under programming_examples/basic. But, I get an error shown in the following figure. What should I do now? Could you help me with it? Thanks!

[jgmelber]

Only some of the programming examples are enabled at this time. Which are you trying?

Can you also share the version of xchesscc you have installed? You will need the version from the early access release of the Ryzen AI Software 1.3: Vitis AIE Essentials.

It looks like you're using the Peano compiler in this example, the version of AIE in Strix laptops is not currently supported with that single core compiler.

Hi @jgmelber,

Thanks!

I was running the programming_examples/basic/passthrough_dmas, changing the dev under passthrough_dmas_alt.py to npu2 and the corresponding Makefile.

The version of xchesscc is U-2022.12#3eec2545bc#230622.

About Install AIETools part, I am doing the Option B. I will change to the option A.

Can you tell me which example can work on Strix successfully? Thanks!

Hi @jgmelber,

I am attempting to download Vitis™ AIE Essentials from the [Ryzen AI Software 1.3 Early Access] site, but I am prompted to obtain approval through the Ryzen AI Software Early Access Secure Site Request.

I submitted this request previously but have not yet received a response. Could you suggest a way to proceed?

Thank you for your assistance.

You should have access to the EA site now.
