@code{svec-wrc-loader} is a tool for loading the firmware of the White Rabbit PTP core that may be embedded in the Application FPGA gateware.
The tool inputs a number of command line switches, followed by a binary file containing the firmware to be programmed.

Printss the list of all SVECs in the system containing a WR Core in currently loaded gateware.

@b{Note 1:} @code{svec-wrc-loader} requires the cards to have gatewares loaded. Usually, one should use it after loading appropriate
FMC drivers.
@b{Note 2:} @code{svec-wrc-loader} relies on SDB information embedded in the AFPGA bitstream to look up for the WR core. It will not work with bitstreams
that don't contain SDB.
