=== Description ===

SoC RK3568 is equipped with 0.8TOPS NPU. This tutorial shows how to make the NPU run on ROCK 3 A, and provides an example and test results.

=== Hardware supported ===

* ROCK 3A
* ROCK 3B
* Radxa CM3 IO Board
* Radxa E23
* Radxa E25

Now follow me to make the NPU run.

=== Setup steps ===

==== Step 1: Get system image  ====

You can get system image from [https://github.com/radxa/rock-3-images-released/releases ROCK 3 A System images].

Here we are concerned about the kernel version. Make sure that kernel is at least  4.19.193-25-rockchip.

 root@rock-3a:/home/rock# uname -r
 4.19.193-25-rockchip-g56fae2db273e

If not, try to upgrade the kernel via the following commands.

Uncomment "deb http://apt.radxa.com/buster-testing/ buster main" in file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/apt-radxa-com.list.
Here I use debian buster image. So its content is

 deb http://apt.radxa.com/buster-stable/ buster main
 deb http://apt.radxa.com/buster-testing/ buster main

If you use ubuntu focal image, It should be like this

 deb http://apt.radxa.com/focal-stable/ focal main
 deb http://apt.radxa.com/focal-testing/ focal main

After saving that file, now we install the latest kernel packages.

 root@rock-3a:/home/rock# apt update
 root@rock-3a:/home/rock# apt install -y linux-4.19-rock-3-latest

Then reboot the device.
Use command 'uname -a' to check the kernel verison again.

==== Step 2: Get Prebuilt RKNN2 SSD DEMO ====

Install curl tool.

 root@rock-3a:/home/rock# apt update
 root@rock-3a:/home/rock# apt install -y curl

Get rknn_ssd_demo_Linux.zip package,  check the md5 of file. It should be b03a1b3c236b83def933090c846d24f5.
And extract it.

 root@rock-3a:/home/rock# curl https://dl.radxa.com/rock3/npu/rknn_ssd_demo_linux_20211228.tar.gz > rknn_ssd_demo_linux_20211228.tar.gz
 root@rock-3a:/home/rock# md5sum rknn_ssd_demo_linux_20211228.tar.gz
 b03a1b3c236b83def933090c846d24f5  rknn_ssd_demo_linux_20211228.tar.gz
 root@rock-3a:/home/rock# tar zxvf rknn_ssd_demo_linux_20211228.tar.gz

Check RKNN runtime version. Here it is '''1.1.0'''.
<pre>
root@rock-3a:/home/rock# cd rknn_ssd_demo_Linux
root@rock-3a:/home/rock/rknn_ssd_demo_Linux# strings lib/librknnrt.so | grep version

==== Step3: Run RKNN2 SSD DEMO ====

These are test commands and result.
