File directory when using linux debug

[hengzhao]

Where should I put the file when I try to read the file as a argv? For example, if I want to read file XXX.cfg, where should I put the file? The same directory as the elf file?

Hi @hengzhao,

We have reached out to a more experienced embedded linux engineer about your thread. They should hopefully respond in the next few days.

thank you,

Are you talking about a Linux or baremetal Xilinx SDK application?

Typically how that works in Linux is that you are just passing the location of the file as a command line argument, so it doesn't really matter where it is as long as you provide the correct location. On Zynq systems, I would typically do this by putting both files on the FAT partition of the SD card, and running something like:

mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
cd /mnt
./myelf.elf "./myconfig.cfg"

Thanks a lot. It could work.
