3. Package contents

Note

The Poplar Triton Backend is no longer included in the CentOS 7.6 SDK package.

Note

There is an enable script (enable) in the Poplar SDK directory. This can be sourced from both Bash and Zsh. It sources the appropriate enable.sh or enable.zsh for both Poplar and PopART to set all the necessary environment variables (for example, PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, PYTHON_PATH). It also adds TensorFlow Serving to the PATH environment variable.

For example:

$ source poplar_sdk-ubuntu_20_04-3.1.0+1203-569225aa2d/enable

The downloaded Poplar SDK 3.4.0 will contain the following packages for each supported operating system:
