pltool
To test functionality of the CPLD and FPGA devices on the boards during startup, use the pltool.
The pltool also checks for the correct firmware loads. The tool uses the CLI to list the devices and their registers, and allows
you to read and write registers in the device. The read functionality prints the details to the bit level and also any bit groupings
and their meanings. The tool uses the SDI interface to get a list of devices and registers in the system, and then uses SDI to
access the devices.
Tests
The pltool tests specified registers and values SDI identifies in the testable bits of the register. The tool reads the register
using SDI interfaces and compares the testable bits from those bits the SDI database provides. If a mismatch occurs, an error
displays.
CLI options
Syntax: pltool <option>
