All input and output delays should be referenced to a virtual clock.
If the input and output delays reference base clocks or PLL clocks rather than
virtual clocks, the intra- and inter-clock transfer clock uncertainties,
determined by derive_clock_uncertainty, are incorrectly applied to the I/O ports.
See mnl_timequest_cookbook.pdf for more info.
Use the new util_cpack2 and util_upack2 cores. They have lower utilization
that the old util_cpack and util_upack cores.

The loopback on the unused gpio inputs consumes routing resources
while does not gives any value for the software.
Connect these lines to zero instead.
- connect unused GPIO inputs to loopback
- connect unconnected inputs to zero
- complete interface for system_wrapper instantiated in all system_top
fixes incomplet portlist WARNING [Synth 8-350]
fixes undriven inputs WARNING [Synth 8-3295]
The change excludes the generated system.v and Xilinx files.
- remove interrupts from system_top
- for all suported carriers:
- remove all interrupt bd pins
- connect to GND all initial unconnected interrupt pins
- update ad_cpu_interrupt procedure to disconnect a interrupt from GND
before connectiong it to another pin.
This change adds the TLAST signal to the AXI streaming interface
of the source side for Intel targets.
Xilinx based designs already have this since the tlast is part of the
interface definition.
In order to make the signal optional and let the tool connect a
default value to the it, the USE_TLAST_SRC/DEST parameter is
added to the configuration UI. This conditions the tlast port on
the interface of the DMAC.
Xilinx handles the optional signals much better so the parameter
is not required there.
There are random timing violations on the A10GX board using the
DAQ3 and DAQ2 projects.
Setting the synthesis/implementation strategy to "HIGH PERFORMANCE
EFFORT" increases the success rate of the timing closure significantly.
In DUAL mode half of the data ports are unused and the unused inputs need
to be connected to dummy signals.
Completely hide the unused ports in DUAL mode to remove that requirement.

Connect the DAC data underflow pin (fifo_rd_underflow) of the DMA
to the dunf pin of the device core. This way the software can detect
underflows in the DAC data path.
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.

Some IP core have files in their file list for common modules that are not
used by the IP itself. Remove those.

Removes a lot of boilerplate code.
Using the new scheme it is possible to add new projects or sub-projects
without having to re-generate any existing Makefiles.
