When channels are not swapped in groups of four but are completely out of order
the common control channel can't be reordered based on the index of the
channel.
Add commands to generate one extra file with resource utilization, in CSV format.
New commands executes only if ADI_GENERATE_UTILIZATION env variable is set.
"prepare_incremental_compile" is defined as a phony target, but is also a
prerequisite of a real target. This will lead to a complete project build
every time make is called.
To fix the issue the functionality of prepare_incremental_compile target
was included in the generic project build target.
Our internal repository was changed from phdl to ghdl. Update the
adi_env.tcl scripts and other scripts, which depends on the $ad_ghdl_dir
variable. This way the tools will see all the internal IPs too.
For all the Xilinx base design, define three global clock nets, which
are saved in the following three global variable: $sys_cpu_clk, $sys_dma_clk
and $sys_iodelay_clk.
These clock nets are connected to different clock sources depending of
the FPGA architecture used on the carrier. In general the following
frequencies are used:
- sys_cpu_clk - 100MHz
- sys_dma_clk - 200MHz or 250Mhz
- sys_iodelay_clk - 200MHz or 500Mhz
Allow the top level files to have parameters.
Pass the parameters from system_project.tcl to the Vivado/Quartus project and
to the block design scripts through ad_project_params variable.
Usage:
1. create a project with a list of parameters:
adi_project_xilinx my_project [list PARAM_A PARAM_A_VALUE PARAM_B PARAM_B_VALUE]
or
adi_project_altera my_project [list PARAM_A PARAM_A_VALUE PARAM_B PARAM_B_VALUE]
2. access the parameter in QSYS or block design through the $ad_project_params variable
e.g
set PARAM_A $ad_project_params(PARAM_A)
set PARAM_B $ad_project_params(PARAM_B)
3. In system_top.v use PARAM_A and PARAM_B as parameters/generics
Look for undefined clocks which do not show up in the timing summary
therefore can lead to silent failures.
If clocks are not defined they are not analyzed during the timing
checks.
Clear the reference checkpoint if the incremental compilation is not
selected through the make option. Other case the scripts will silently
use the reference.dcp checkpoint if that exists.
The scripts are looking for a previous run result, a routed design
checkpoint to use it as a reference during the incremental build flow.
Before clearing the project files, the scrips will save the reference dcp
file in the project folder.
If the reference dcp does not exists the build continues normally.
Proposed workflow:
1. Build your project normally with 'make' or place manually a
reference.dcp file in the Vivado project folder.
2. Do some minor modifications
3. Run the make with the following option:
make MODE=incr
4. Repeat steps 2-3
Using a common IP cache location for all the project will speed up
compile time of common blocks used in base designs. Example a MicroBlaze
core for VCU118 once compiled it will be reused on other projects.
Using a common IP cache will speed up re-compiles of every project in OOC
mode since the cache won't be cleared as with normal compile flow.
In the current form, when connecting a master to the HP ports all
available slave address spaces are mapped to the master (DDR_*, PCIE*, OCM,
QSPI)
Let the PL masters have access only to the DDR_LOW and DDR_HIGH address
spaces to avoid unnecessary resource usage and increase timing margin.
Each individual link of a multi-link has its own sync signal. The top level
sync port that is created by the ad_xcvrcon function is always a single bit
single though.
This results in only the sync signal of the first link being routed while
others are ignored.
To fix this make sure that for multi-link setups the sync port is a vector
port with the width equal to the number of links.

Add support for specifying a set of parameter value pairs when
instantiating an IP core to the ad_ip_instance command. This has the
convenience of not having to repeatedly call ad_ip_parameter with the name
of the core that got just created for each parameter that needs to be set.
It is also useful for cases where some parameters have mutually exclusive
values and both (or more) have to be set at the same time.
This also slightly speeds things up. Whenever a parameter is changed the
core needs to be updated and post configuration scripts might run. When
setting all parameters at the same time this only happens once instead of
once for each parameter.
For example the following sequence
ad_ip_instance axi_dmac axi_ad9136_dma
ad_ip_parameter axi_ad9136_dma CONFIG.DMA_TYPE_SRC 0
ad_ip_parameter axi_ad9136_dma CONFIG.DMA_TYPE_DEST 1
ad_ip_parameter axi_ad9136_dma CONFIG.DMA_DATA_WIDTH_SRC 64
ad_ip_parameter axi_ad9136_dma CONFIG.DMA_DATA_WIDTH_DEST 256
can now be replaced with
ad_ip_instance axi_dmac axi_ad9136_dma [list \
DMA_TYPE_SRC 0 \
DMA_TYPE_DEST 1 \
DMA_DATA_WIDTH_SRC 64 \
DMA_DATA_WIDTH_DEST 256 \
]
