Abstract
In one embodiment, a method may receive, by a compiler of a host computing system, source code for a computer application. The method may also include separating a first portion of the source code and a second portion of the source code that are to be compiled for execution by an accelerator operatively coupled to the host computing system. The method may also include compiling the first portion of the source code to generate hardware description language code. A logic block is to be generated on the accelerator in view of the hardware description language code. The method also includes compiling the second portion of the source code to generate softcore processor code, and adding instructions to the softcore processor code to cause the softcore processor code to interact with the logic block during execution of the softcore processor code and the logic block.
