This course covers the complete software stack for Altera SoC FPGA platforms, from Yocto BSP construction and U-Boot boot configuration through Linux device tree customization, platform driver development, DMA engine integration, and runtime inference pipeline orchestration. Starting from the HPS boot sequence and progressing through kernel mode driver development, zero copy DMA buffer management, and Python/ONNX Runtime integration, participants develop production grade software infrastructure that manages custom inference accelerators. The course concludes with partial reconfiguration control from Linux, OTA update implementation.
