By defualt the supported tool chain is Quartus PRO. If you want to
build the project with Quartus Standard, you need to define an environment
variable called QUARTUS_PRO_ISUSED with the value 0. (e.g. export
QUARTUS_PRO_ISUSED=0 )
Note: Not all projects going to build on Quartus Standard, you should
fix the errors if there is any.
There is a major compatibility issue between 2019.1 and 2019.2.
The file system_top.hdf got a different file extention. This will
cause a compilation failer in the end of the build. To save time
and fail earlier, upgrade the version mismatch message to ERROR.
If user still wants to build a branch with different tool version
the variable ADI_IGNORE_VERSION_CHECK should be set to 1.
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.
