Introduction
The Remote System Update (RSU) is a feature available for Stratix 10 and Agilex FPGA devices, which allows you to safely update the configuration bitstreams stored in QSPI flash on deployed target systems. The RSU can be managed from the FPGA fabric, or from the HPS (Hard Processor System) software - both U-Boot and Linux offering complete support. This document presents the combinations of HPS software component versions and Quartus firmware versions that are tested to ensure compatibility. The page is growing continuously, as there are always new versions of HPS software, and new versions of Quartus being released. For more information about RSU, refer to:- Stratix 10:

- "N/A" means the test was not performed
- "Completed" means the test was performed, and any found issues either fixed or documented
- An asterisk "*" indicates both ATF and non-ATF tests were performed for this combination
- Agilex devices were supported only starting with Quartus 20.1
Additional Non-ATF Tests
Starting with U-Boot 2020.07, the ATF flow was introduced, and it replaced the non-ATF flow. The non-ATF flow is still available in the U-Boot code, mainly for debug purposes. However, it is highly reccomended to move to the ATF flow, as the code is mostly frozen since 2020.04, with no new features being implemented or bugs being fixed. Furthermore, future changes may be needed in the SDM APIs which could break compatibility. If that happens, the non-ATF code will not be updated. The Tests section above indicates with an asterisk (*) which combinations are also tested with the non-ATF flow. Some additional tests were performed one-time-only on Stratix 10, with the non-ATF flow, as listed below:HPS Software | U-Boot | 2020.04 | 2020.07 | 2020.07 | 2020.10 | 2021.07 |

Using Latest Firmware
Intel recommends using the latest available version of the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software and the latest available device firmware. See https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/articles/000091370.html.Known Issues
- Why does a u-boot hang and reset happen when the RSU command → linux_qspi_enable → RSU command sequence is issued from u-boot-socfpga 2021.04
- Why does RSU Notify fail to report software state after watchdog timer expiry in Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software versions 20.1 - 20.4 for Intel® Agliex® devices?
