Requirements

Tools needed for e.g. Ubuntu 18.04 (host)

$ sudo apt-get install -y libffi-dev libssl-dev
$ sudo apt-get install -y python3-dev
$ sudo apt-get install -y python3-pyqt5 python3-pyqt5.qtwebengine
$ sudo apt-get install -y python3 python3-pip
$ pip3 install docker-compose

Make sure, ~/.local is within $PATH or re-link e.g. it to /usr/local.

Make sure to have docker setup correctly, e.g.

$ sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

Make sure to have:

• A downloaded Xilinx_Unified_*_Lin64.bin
• A downloaded petalinux-*-installer.run from https://www.xilinx.com/support/download/index.html/content/xilinx/en/downloadNav/embedded-design-tools/archive.html
• A xilinx account is needed to install the packages (usually free), and to provide the credentials

Preparation

!!! Prepare Xilinx login credentials, append the following variables !!!

Provide Xilinx Vivado installer, Petalinux installer and credentials. Download the installer from the official page.

$ mkdir ./download
$ cp <Downloads>/Xilinx_Unified_*_Lin64.bin ./download
$ cp <Downloads>/petalinux-*-installer.run ./download
$ echo "UID=$(id -u)" > ./download/.env
$ echo "GID=$(id -g)" >> ./download/.env
$ vi ./download/.env
    ...
    XILINXMAIL='<my email>'
    XILINXLOGIN='<my xilinx password>'

NB: XILINXMAIL and XILINXLOGIN are only needed for container creation. They are not stored inside the container. The entries can be removed from the .env file after installation! The .env is not tracked by git.

Example:

$ tree -a ./download/
    ./download/
    ├── .env
    ├── petalinux-v2023.1-*-installer.run
    └── Xilinx_Unified_2023.1_*_Lin64.bin

    0 directories, 3 files

$ cat ./download/.env
    UID=105601750
    GID=105600513
    XILINXMAIL=my.email@company.com
    XILINXLOGIN='password123'

After building the image, the folder download can be removed. The installer files will be in the respective build_context folders and can be equally removed.
