In cases when a shallow FIFO is requested the synthesizer infers distributed RAM
instead of block RAMs. This can be an issue when the clocks of the FIFO are
asynchronous since a timing path is created though the LUTs which implement the
memory, resulting in timing failures. Ignoring timing through the path is not a
solution since would lead to metastability.
This does not happens with block RAMs.
The solution is to use the ad_mem (block RAM) in case of async clocks and letting
the synthesizer do it's job in case of sync clocks for optimal resource utilization.
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.

Add .gitattributes file which sets up the eol encoding handling. This will
make sure that we get a uniform eol encoding across different operating
systems.
