Dual clock mode is introduced in link layer to support different
datapath widths on the transport layer than on physical layer.
- Link clock : lane rate / 40 for input datapath width of 4 octets 8b10b
- Device clock : Link clock * input data path width / output datapath width
Supports four clock configurations, single or dual clock mode with or
without external device clock.
The configuration interface reflects the dual clock domain.
Make synthesis parameters accessible for the drivers.
Rework implementation to reflect the parameters of the actual core and
not of the AXI interfacing core.
To support deterministic latency with non-power of two octets per frame
(F=3,6) the interface width towards the transport layer must be resized
to match integer multiple of frames.
e.g Input datapath width = 4; Output datpath width = 6;
for F=3 one beat contains 2 frames
for F=6 one beat contains 1 frame
The width change is realized with a gearbox.
Due the interface width change the single clock domain core is split
in two clock domains.
- Link clock : lane rate / 40 for input datapath width of 4 octets 8b10b
- lane rate / 20 for input datapath width of 8 octets 8b10b
- lane rate / 66 for input datapath width of 8 octets 64b66b
- Device clock : Link clock * input data path width / output datapath width
Interface to transport layer and SYSREF handling is moved to device clock domain.
The configuration interface reflects the dual clock domain.
If Input and Output datapath width matches, the gearbox is no longer
required, a single clock can be connected to both clocks.
In order to keep resource utilization low and for better timing closure
allow disabling of the character replacement logic.
If the parameter is set the frame alignment monitoring is limited to links
where scrambling is on.
Add support to JESD204 RX and TX core for 8-byte 8b/10b link mode,
and frame alignment character replace/insert with or without scrambling.
Add support for xcelium simulator to jesd204/tb
Increased cores minor version.
In order to help timing closure on multi SLR FPGAs add a pipeline stage
between the link layer and physical layer. This will add a fixed amount
of delay to the overall latency.
For consistent simulation behavior it is recommended to annotate all source
files with a timescale. Add it to those where it is currently missing.

In case when the SYSREF is connected to an FPGA IO which has a limitation
on the IOB register IN_FF clock line and the required ref clock is high
we can't use the IOB registers.
e.g. the max clock rate on zcu102 HP IO FF is 312MHz but ref clock is 375MHz;
If IOB is used in this case a pulse width violation is reported.
This change makes the IOB placement selectable in such case or
for targets which don't require class 1 operation.
The cfg_links_disable register will mask the SYNC lines, disabled links
will always have a de-asserted SYNC (logic state HIGH).
The FSM will stay in CGS as long as there is one active link with an
asserted SYNC (logic state LOW).
Update the test bench to generate the SYNC signals in different clock
edges, so it can test all the possible scenarios.
A multi-link is a link where multiple converter devices are connected to a
single logic device (FPGA). All links involved in a multi-link are synchronous
and established at the same time. For a TX link this means that the FPGA receives
multiple SYNC signals, one for each link. The state machine of the TX link
peripheral must combine those SYNC signals into a single SYNC signal that is
asserted when either of the external SYNC signals is asserted.
Dynamic multi-link support must allow to select to which converter devices on
the multi-link the SYNC signal is propagated too. This is useful when depending
on the use case profile some converter devices are supposed to be disabled.
Add the cfg_links_disable[0x081] register for multi-link control and
propagate its value to the TX FSM.
All the file names must have the same name as its module. Change all the
files, which did not respect this rule.
Update all the make files and Tcl scripts.
Currently the individual IP core dependencies are tracked inside the
library Makefile for Xilinx IPs and the project Makefiles only reference
the IP cores.
For Altera on the other hand the individual dependencies are tracked inside
the project Makefile. This leads to a lot of duplicated lists and also
means that the project Makefiles need to be regenerated when one of the IP
cores changes their files.
Change the Altera projects to a similar scheme than the Xilinx projects.
The projects themselves only reference the library as a whole as their
dependency while the library Makefile references the individual source
dependencies.
Since on Altera there is no target that has to be generated create a dummy
target called ".timestamp_altera" who's only purpose is to have a timestamp
that is greater or equal to the timestamp of all of the IP core files. This
means the project Makefile can have a dependency on this file and make sure
that the project will be rebuild if any of the files in the library
changes.
This patch contains quite a bit of churn, but hopefully it reduces the
amount of churn in the future when modifying Altera IP cores.

This reduces the amount of boilerplate code that is present in these
Makefiles by a lot.
It also makes it possible to update the Makefile rules in future without
having to re-generate all the Makefiles.

The Xilinx tools are quite forgiving when it comes to required signals on
standard interfaces, which is why it was possible to define a AXI streaming
interface without the required valid signal.
The Altera tools are more strict and wont allow this. Add a dummy valid
signal to the TX data interface to make the tools happy. For now the signal
does not do anything, in the future it might be used to detect an underflow
condition on the data interface and report this through the status
interface.

Use the CDC sync_bits helper to synchronize the asynchronous external SYNC~
signal into the link clock domain, rather than open-coding this operation.
This makes it more explicit what is going on.

There are currently two sysref related events. One the sysref captured
event which is generated when an external sysref edge has been observed.
The other is the sysref alignment error event which is generated when a
sysref edge is observed that has a different alignment from previously
observed sysref edges.
Capture those events in the register map. This is useful for error
diagnostic. The events are sticky and write-1-to-clear.

For SYSREF handling there are now three possible modes.
1) Disabled. In this mode the LMFC is generated internally and all external
SYSREF edges are ignored. This mode should be used for subclass 0 when no
external sysref is available.
2) Continuous SYSREF. An external SYSREF signal is required and the LMFC is
aligned to the SYSREF signal. The SYSREF signal is continuously monitored
and if a edge unaligned to the previous edges is detected the LMFC is
re-aligned to the new edge.
3) Oneshot SYSREF. Oneshot SYSREF mode is similar to continuous SYSREF mode
except only the first edge is captured and all further edges are ignored,
re-alignment will not happen.
Both in continuous and oneshot signal at least one external sysref edge is
required before an LMFC is generated. All events that require an LMFC will
be delayed until a SYSREF edge has been captured. This is done to avoid
accidental re-alignment.

The ADI JESD204 link layer cores are a implementation of the JESD204 link
layer. They are responsible for handling the control signals (like SYNC and
SYSREF) and controlling the link state machine as well as performing
per-lane (de-)scrambling and character replacement.
Architecturally the cores are separated into two components.
1) Protocol processing cores (jesd204_rx, jesd204_tx). These cores take
care of the JESD204 protocol handling. They have configuration and status
ports that allows to configure their behaviour and monitor the current
state. The processing cores run entirely in the lane_rate/40 clock domain.
They have a upstream and a downstream port that accept and generate raw PHY
level data and transport level payload data (which is which depends on the
direction of the core).
2) Configuration interface cores (axi_jesd204_rx, axi_jesd204_tx). The
configuration interface cores provide a register map interface that allow
access to the to the configuration and status interfaces of the processing
cores. The configuration cores are responsible for implementing the clock
domain crossing between the lane_rate/40 and register map clock domain.
These new cores are compatible to all ADI converter products using the
JESD204 interface.
