AWS EC2 F1 ERROR: [v++ 60-773] caught Tcl error: ERROR: '2201011829' is an invalid argument.

Hi, I have been trying to run hardware system image in AWS f1.2x large instance. I am successfully able to run sw_emu. However, when I try to create the hardware image, I keep getting the following error. This is strange because the same code was able to be synthesized 2 days ago.

ERROR: [v++ 60-773] In '/home/centos/<cwd>/_x/runOnfpga/runOnfpga/vitis_hls.log', caught Tcl error: ERROR: '2201012237' is an invalid argument. Please specify an integer value.

Note: The ERROR number is observed to change as I run the hw synthesis each time.

And in the vitis_hls.log, the following info is being displayed

INFO: [IP_Flow 19-1686] Generating 'Simulation' target for IP 'runOnfpga_sitodp_32ns_64_4_no_dsp_1_ip'...

Update: It seems like even the Xilinx examples are giving out the same problem when we run on F1 instance. I tried to clone the Vitis Accel Examples and it gave the same problem as above.

Hello,

Xilinx has provided a patch for mitigating this issue: https://support.xilinx.com/s/article/76960?language=en_US We are working on releasing updates to the FPGA Developer AMI using this patch, but you could apply it directly on your instance in the meanwhile to get unblocked.

Let us know if you still face issues after applying the patch.

Thanks,

Deep
