- almostgotcaught 2y agobecause XRT has a plugin architecture: XRT<-shim plugin<-kernel driver. The shims register themselves with XRT. The XDNA driver repo houses both the shim and the kernel driver.
- boomskats 2y agoThanks, that makes sense.
- wtallis 2y agoIt would be surprising and strange if AMD didn't reuse the software framework they've already built for doing AI when that IP block is instantiated on an FPGA fabric rather than hardened in an ASIC.
- boomskats 2y agoWell, I'm irrationally disappointed, but thanks. Appreciate the correction.
