macro placement issue #1287

Closed vinayrayapati closed 1 year ago

vinayrayapati commented 2 years ago

I tried introducing a custom macro into the example design of the picorv32a, my synthesis was successful , but when I am trying to run the floorpan , the flow is failed due to the following errors in the global placement step:

[ERROR]: during executing openroad script /openlane/scripts/openroad/basic_mp.tcl
[ERROR]: Log: designs/picorv32a/runs/run/logs/placement/6-basic_mp.log
