Arria10 SoC in OpenCPI

My team is interested in Intel's Arria10 SoC Development Kit and Quartus
Prime Pro in OpenCPI. Is there an existing HW and/or SW BSP for this
development kit? If so, can it be (or is it already) released open-source
even if in an untested or unsupported capacity?

Thanks!

There is early/preliiminary work in this area that is not on github, but
probably could be.

In case you don't already know, the Arria10 has a major issue in that it
requires a partial reconfiguration FPGA flow in order to do dynamic
bitstream loading.
The Arria5 SoC does not have this issue and thus would be much easier to
succeed with.

Generically supporting partial reconfiguration is an OpenCPI roadmap
item, but won't happen in the short term.

Thank you for the information! That is very helpful. How would I go about
requesting this work to be published to github?
