Add some limit TLAST support for the streaming AXI source interface. An
asserted TLAST signal marks the end of a packet and the following data beat
is the first beat for the next packet.
Currently the DMAC does not support for completing a transfer before all
requested bytes have been transferred. So the way this limited TLAST
support is implemented is by filling the remainder of the buffer with 0x00.
While the DMAC is busy filling the buffer with zeros back-pressure is
asserted on the external streaming AXI interface by keeping TREADY
de-asserted.
The end of a buffer is marked by a transfer that has the last bit set in
the FLAGS control register.
In the future we might add support for transfer completion before all
requested bytes have been transferred.

Commit ff50963c7f ("axi_ad9361- altera/xilinx reconcile- may be broken-

This exposed some issues in the existing drivers which can cause the

To keep backwards compatibility with existing drivers restore the previous

A separate fix will be applied to the drivers that resolves the issue that
has been exposed by the polarity inversion. So that interface calibration

Assigning the value of a local parameter(localparam) to a parameter
will end up with a conflict(not highlighted by the tool). In this
case, the parameter type was defined as a string instead of an
integer. Furthermore, this scenario leads to an undesired choice
between primitive types.
The dma_last_beats is used by the Avalon Memory Mapped interface
controller, to define the last burst length.
Its value get stable after the last valid data of the DMA interface, and staying
stable until the positive edge of the DMA's xfer_req.
No need to condition the transfer of this register to avalon clock
domain.
The XFER_END state defines the end of a transaction, when the entire
data set is written or read to/from the DDRx memory.
A transaction can contain multiple Avalon bursts. Make sure that the FSM
goes back into staging phase at the end of each burst; also define a
signals which indicate the end of each burst for control.
The period_count should be updated once per clock cycle. This is not
enforced with the current implementation, which probably leads to
period_count being decremented on both m_axis_aclk edges.
A problem observed due to this is that the m_axis_tlast output is not
asserted or is asserted for a too short time for the consumer to
detect it.
Fix by letting the decrement (and thus the m_axis_tlast toggling)
happen only on the rising edge of the m_axis_aclk clock.

The commit 6900c have added an additional register stage into the fifo read

The dac_xfer_req should indicate one single thing, that the FIFO is in
read phase. Should not be affected by any signals, which indicates data
validity on any interface. (e.g. dac_valid)
This signal is not used by the device core, its main purpose is to
indicate the state of the interface for a posible intermediat processing
module.
Fix the reset of the dma_mem_waddr (write address register of the CDC
FIFO on DMA's clock domain). This solves the occasional invalid read backs after
multiple re-initialization of the PL_DDR_FIFO.

If the ADI_HDL_DIR or ADI_PHDL_DIR are set on Windows platforms, an

Normalize the paths before using them as global TCL variables.
The first attempt (f3daf0) faild miserably. When the data_req signal
from the device had more than 1 cycle of deassert state, because of the
added latency of the data stream, the device got 'zeros' too.
In this fix, the DMA will hold the valid data on the bus, between two
consecutive data request. The bus is reseted just after all the data
were sent out.
The grey coder/decoder function was limited to 10 bits, and this
resulted an unwanted limitation of the FIFO size. Using this
module, the coder/decoder data width can be adjusted to the current
address width.
Reset the fifo_rd_data if the DMA does not have an active transfer.
Becasue all the DAC device cores are transfering the data from the FIFO
interface to the data interface without any validation signal, DMA needs to put
the data bus into a known state, to prevent the device core to send the
last known data again and again.
Add missing timing exceptions on paths between the DMA and DDR clock
domains. All these paths are properly synchronized using CDC in the HDL,
but are missing timing exceptions in the XDC file. This can lead to timing

Currently the ILAS memory for the receive register map uses a shift
register with variable tap output for storing the ILAS information. This
maps very efficiently onto the primitives found in Xilinx FPGAs. But there
is no equivalent primitive in Altera FPAGs resulting in increased
utilization from having to implement the structure in pure logic.
Change the ILAS memory so it uses a simple dual port RAM for storing the
data. This has slightly increased utilization on Xilinx platforms (but
still good enough) and highly decreased utilization on Altera platforms.
One side effect of this change is that since the RAM output is synchronous
reading the ILAS memory registers will take one extra clock cycle.

When the DMA clock to ADC data rate ratio exceeds a certain threshold it is
possible that an erroneous dma_waddr_rel toggle event is generated. This
causes the last address of the previous DMA transfer to be transferred to
the DMA domain. And the DMA side will start reading from the FIFO even
though data is not available yet.
This results in data corruption with the current transfer containing data
from the previous transfer.
The root cause here is that the toggle signal CDC synchronizer register are
reset in the DMA when a new transfer starts, but not in the ADC domain,
causing a potential mismatch and the incorrect toggle event. To fix this
remove the reset from the DMA side. This is OK since the registers are
self-resetting if the reset signal is asserted for more than 3 clock cycles.
