Out of Context constraints are needed for timing driven synthesis as for
avoiding critical warnings due clock queries.
The memory from the FIFO is inferred in different ways for high clock
speeds. Assume the highest frequency for all projects.
Fix library makefiles dep list using generic vendor info reg
Combine adi_int_bd_tcl with adi_auto_fill_bd_tcl procedure.
This change will simplify the process of generating makefiles for each library.
Removing the bd.tcl script from the adi_ip_files list will remove it from the
make dependency list.
Having a bd.tcl script in every IP is redundant.
adi_ip.tcl:
- add adi_init_bd_tcl - creates a blanch bd.tcl and a
parameters temporary_case_dependencies.mk when compiling an IP.
Its main purpose is to generate the bd.tcl, which will be included in
the IP's file-set.
- adi_auto_fill_bd_tcl will populate the empty bd.tcl based on the
top IP parameters and the presence of these parameters in
auto_set_param_list and auto_set_param_list_overwritable lists.
This task can not be performed by the first described procedure since
the file-set is not yet defined.
adi_xilinx_device_info_enc.tcl:
Split auto_set_param_list_overwritable from auto_set_param_list. As
the name states, some of the parameters are overwritable, this will help
when generating the bd.tcl script.
library.mk:
Include the temporary_case_dependencies.mk if it exists in the
IP root folder. The mentioned *.mk file contains non generic
dependencies for makefiles like targets to clean.
Common basic steps:
- Include/create infrastructure:
* Intel:
- require quartus::device package
- set_module_property VALIDATION_CALLBACK info_param_validate
* Xilinx
- add bd.tcl, containing init{} procedure. The init procedure will be
called when the IP will be instantiated into the block design.
- add to the xilinx_blockdiagram file group the bd.tcl and common_bd.tcl
- create GUI files
- add parameters in *_ip.tcl and *_hw.tcl (adi_add_auto_fpga_spec_params)
- add/propagate the info parameters through the IP verilog files

Xilinx:
When calling adi_auto_fpga_spec_params in the x_ip.tcl, parameters like
- FPGA_TECHNOLOGY
- FPGA_FAMILY
- SPEED_GRADE
- DEV_PACKAGE
- XCVR_TYPE
- FPGA_VOLTAGE
will be automatically detected and constrained to predefined pairs of values
from adi_xilinx_device_info_env.tcl
The parameters specified in the blobk diagram of the IP(bd.tcl), will be
automatically assign when the IP is added to a block design.
The "adi_auto_assign_device_spec $cellpath" is called in the init
hook (bd.tcl).

Intel:
Info parameters are set in the VALIDATION_CALLBACK according to
adi_intel_device_info_env.tcl
Fix the following warning:
WARNING: [Synth 8-2611] redeclaration of ANSI port up_es_reset is not allowed
Also make sure, that in all configurations, the register has a diver.
Add support for 8 bit resolution for the transport layer.
Fix parameter BITS_PER_SAMPLES propagation to all the internal modules, in
several cases this variable was hard coded to 16.
The axi_pulse_gen is a generic PWM generator, which can be configured
through an AXI Memory Mapped interface.
The current register map look like follows:
0x00 - VERSION
0x04 - ID
0x08 - SCRATCH
0x0C - IDENTIFICATION - 0x504c5347 which stands for 'PLSG' in ASCII
0x10 - CONFIGURATION - contains reset and load bits
0x14 - PULSE_PERIOD
0x18 - PULSE_WIDTH
Also update all the other modules, which instantiate the util_pulse_gen.
To prevent the case, when after an invalid configuration, the generated
output PWM signal is constant HIGH, change the counter to a
down-counter. In this way the pulse will be placed at the end of the
PWM period, and if the configured width value is higher than the
configured period the output signal will be constant LOW.
Write code to pipeline data path for better DSP utilization on the
color space conversion.
In the old method the addition operations were performed outside the
DSPs
The FIFO functions in 'first fall through' mode, adjust the fifo level
generation so it take into account the valid data which sits on the bus,
waiting for ready, too.
