What’s New in Xilinx SDK v2018.3

The following updates were made in Xilinx® SDK:

General
  • Support for Cortex-M1 CPU Debug is added in XSDB only.
  • 64 bit Microblaze support is not present in the UI by default. You should add flags explicitly.
Tool Chain
  • Upgraded the toolchain component: Arm: GCC version 7.3.1.
  • Support for 64 bit Microblaze is added in toolchain.
  • Support for Cortex-M1 CPU compilation is added in toolchain.
Bootgen
  • Usage of same encryption key file for all the partitions is obsolete, since it is a security vulnerability. Each encrypted partition needs its own key file.
