I changed it because I have a block that uses the word error in it.
When looking at actual errors, I found that the DC reports errors with the tag “Error:” (the assert ‘error’ appears to be case insensitive) So this was the simplest solution to avoid having to rewrite a lot of verilog code.

Just wondered what issue motivated this change. I see that the latest version of mflowgen is using the error string error: (lowercase e), so I wanted to make sure we're still catching all the errors we used to catch. ref: https://github.com/cornell-brg/mflowgen/blob/f646da41b57b7894fc4e8ef852eb0cd713e97cb3/steps/synopsys-dc-synthesis/configure.yml#L93

@zamyers could you move the three files in vlog/chip_src_v2
to a new subfolder in tests/cpu_block_tests
? They're not being included in the regression suite in their current location. (I'm suggesting the cpu_block_tests
folder because this test does not instantiate dragonphy_top
; it's lower-level). At that point, the vlog/chip_src_v2
folder should be empty, and you can delete it. Thanks!
Took a quick look at the tests -- seems that mm_cdr
and mm_cdr_slew
are failing (CPU tests) and the emulation test_2
is failing (it's similar to mm_cdr
). The rest of the emulation tests (test_3
-test_6
didn't run due to the -x
argument in pytest
).
@zamyers I just pushed two small design changes to this branch:
estimated_bits_out
(I think this was a typo, but am not familiar with the internal design of the DSP core)phase_error_q
in the MM CDR.
The tests that were failing on the regression servers now pass locally for me. Could you confirm if these two changes are OK? Thanks.
This branch is a continuation of the new_datapath branch with updates related to the physical design flow.
There are two main changes from Master in the system design:
There are many minor changes, but the main change that touch blocks outside of the datapath is a change to the PRBS checker. The PRBS checker now outputs its error flags.
There are additional changes to the JTAG register space (as the error tracker requires its own registers).
On the Physical Design Flow, The two primary changes are (1) a new floorplan that includes new macros required by the TX and error tracker blocks and some minor tweaks related to register retiming.
I will also add the macro required by the histogram blocks but that will occur on the phys_design_v2 branch.
