Linux Drivers

The table below provides a comprehensive list of the drivers available for Agilex 5 and Agilex 7.

  • IP Name column indicates what type of IP the driver targets.
  • HPS or PCIe column indicates if the driver is targeting the embedded Host Processor System found on our devices or a server host or both.
  • Documentation column provides a link to driver description, architectural details, driver capabilities and configurations, known issues and release information.
  • Upstream Status column indicates mainstream status of driver.
  • Kernel Source indicates location of driver.

You can use the filter fields to narrow your search.
