The DDR memory reference clock on the A10SoC development board is
differential. Currently the EMIF core it is configured for single-ended
configuration, which causes it to generate incorrect IOSTANDARD
constraints. Those incorrect constraints get overwritten again in
system_assign.tcl, so things are working, but this generates a warning when
building the design
Configure the EMIF core correctly and remove the manual constraint overwrite since
they are no longer necessary.

The CIC filter introduces different amplifications depending on the
decimation ratio. By adding a multiplier in the decimation chain
the amplification can be compensated
There is no guarantee that the external reset de-assertion is synchronous
to the sys_clk, yet the clock bridge marks the reset de-assertion as
synchronized to the clock. This can cause recovery or removal timing
violations for the registers affected by this reset signal and potentially
bring the system into an invalid state after the reset is de-asserted.
Mark the reset as not synchronized to the clock signal, this will make sure
that Qsys inserts the proper reset synchronizers where required.

The ADI transport layer peripherals expect the first octet to be in the
LSBs and the last octet to be in the MSBs. The Altera JESD204 core orders
the octets the other way around though, first octet in the MSBs and last
octet in the LSBS.
Currently this is handled by having each transport layer peripheral swap
the octets around when it is connected to the Altera JESD204 core.
Change this so that rather than having to do the data swizzling in every in
every transport layer peripheral perform it at the input/output of the link
layer peripheral inside the generated block.

Currently the TX lane mapping is implemented by having to connect tx_phy_s_* to
the tx_ip_s_* and the tx_phy_d_* to the tx_ip_d_* signals in the system
qsys file in the desired order.
Re-work things so that instead the lane mapping is provided through the
TX_LANE_MAP parameter. The parameter specifies in which order logical lanes
are mapped onto the physical lanes.
The appropriate connections are than made inside the core according to this
parameter rather than having to manually connect the signals externally.
In order to generate a 1-to-1 mapping the TX_LANE_MAP parameter can be left
empty.
This change slightly reduces the boiler-plate code that is necessary to
setup the transceiver.

+ Add a HDL parameter for the PPS receiver module :
PPS_RECEIVER_ENABLE. By default the module is disabled.
+ Add the CMOS_OR_LVDS_N and PPS_RECEIVER_ENABLE into the CONFIG
register
+ Define a pps_status read only register, which will be asserted, if the free
running counter reach a certain fixed threshold. (2^28) The register can
be deasserted by an incomming PPS only.

The AXI specification that the minimum address space size is 4k, make sure
the axi_dmac adheres to this.
Internally the register space is still 2k. This means the upper and lower
2k of the axi4lite register space will map to the same internal registers.
Software must not rely on this and only access the lower 2k to enable
compatibility in case the internal space grows in the future.

Currently the axi_dmac_hw.tcl script does not create interfaces if they
are not used in the current configuration. This has the disadvantage that
the ports belonging to these interfaces are not included in the generated
HDL wrapper. Which will generate a fair bunch of warnings when synthesizing
the HDL.
Instead always generate all interfaces, but disable those that are not used
in the current configuration. This will make sure that the ports belonging
to these interfaces are properly tied-off in the generate wrapper HDL.
This reduces the amount of false positive warnings generated and makes it
easier to spot actual issues.

The DMAC currently doesn't support transfers where the length is not a
multiple of the bus width. When generating the wstrb signal we do pretend
though that we do and dynamically generate it based on the LSBs of the
transfer length.
Given that the other parts of the DMA don't support such transfers this is
unnecessary though. So remove it for now and replace it with a constant
expression where wstrb is always fully asserted.
The generated logic for the wstrb signal was quite terrible, so this
improves the timing of the core.

The external s_axi_{awaddr,araddr} signals that are connect to the core
have their width set according to the specified size of the register map.
If the s_axi_{awaddr,araddr} signal of the core is wider (as it currently
is for many cores) the MSBs of those signals are left unconnected, which
generates a warning.
To avoid this make sure that the signal width matches the declared register
map size.

The width of a ternary operator expression is the width of the wider of the
two selectable expression. This means the right side expression of the
tx_data assigment is always 256 bits. This generates an implicit truncating
warning if the tx_data signal itself is only 128 bits.
To avoid this slightly reformulate the expression to yield the correct
width depending on the configuration.

The width of a ternary operator expression is the width of the wider of the
two selectable expression. This means depending on the selected DMA_RATIO
the right side expression of the dma_waddr_rel_s assignment can be up to
three bits wider than the dma_waddr_rel_s signal. This generates an
implicit truncation warning.
Slightly reformulate the expression without the use of the ternary operator
to avoid this warning.

Comments starting with the word altera are interpreted by the Altera tools
to be synthesis attribute assignments. In this case this is just a generic
comment though which results in a warning that the synthesis attribute is
unknown.
Slightly reword the comment to avoid this. This is not pretty, but better
than having the false positive warning show up in the log.
