No such option: --run-floorplanning

Environment

• OS: Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS
• Vitis version: 2021.1
• Platform: [xilinx_u280_xdma_201920_3]
• TAPA version: 0.0.20220807.1

I wanted to use floorplan option in my problem. I am also using CMake for the build system and there I have this code:

Since I couldnt find add_tapa_target custom function I wanted to follow the same way how you used it in serpens so I added "--run-floorplanning" same way. but I get this error:

This is actually a simple matrix vector multiplication case. I split a matrix to 28 HBMs as you can see I want to make them read only arguments.

Am I missing something?

So should I not use the CMake?

[Licheng-Guo]

If that example runs through, could you not use CMake and follow the example shell script? Thanks

[enes1994]

If there is anything comes to your mind to change in my cmake file for my problem that would be great. It is kind of a big build system and I use many different packages.

[enes1994]

If that example runs through, could you not use CMake and follow the example shell script? Thanks

Btw, I was able to run vadd example with cmake command.

[Blaok]

Since I couldnt find add_tapa_target custom function I wanted to follow the same way how you used it in serpens so I added "--run-floorplanning" same way. but I get this error:

Old CMake files are partially broken since 979e008b8d3ef220a7f3e00c9993e0b566123b1b due to the migration tapac CLI to tapa CLI. For the new tapa CLI, the order of arguments is significant; any additional argument will be for the tapa pack sub-command only.

A quick work-around is to move the list(APPEND tapa_cmd ${TAPA_UNPARSED_ARGUMENTS}) line right before list(APPEND tapa_cmd link) in /usr/lib/cmake/tapa/TAPACCConfig.cmake after installation.

Longer term, we should add ANALYZE_ARGS, COMPILE_ARGS, DSE_FLOORPLAN_ARGS, LINK_ARGS, OPTIMIZE_FLOORPLAN_ARGS, PACK_ARGS, and SYNTH_ARGS to the add_tapa_target function.

This is because the CMakeList.txt was written for U250 which has 4 DDR channels, but you are running it for U280 which only has 2 DDR channels. You can replace DDR with HBM and try again.

[enes1994]

Hi @Blaok thanks for the helpful answers. I replaced DDRs with HBMs as : --connectivity.sp=Bandwidth.m_axi_chan_0:HBM[0] --connectivity.sp=Bandwidth.m_axi_chan_1:HBM[1] --connectivity.sp=Bandwidth.m_axi_chan_2:HBM[2] --connectivity.sp=Bandwidth.m_axi_chan_3:HBM[3] in CMake file but now I received an error saying: ERROR: [VPL 101-2] ERROR: [Vivado 12-1041] No pblock specified to add instances to.

I still get the same error and it still calls tapa pack sub command after I moved list(APPEND tapa_cmd ${TAPA_UNPARSED_ARGUMENTS}) line right before list(APPEND tapa_cmd link) in /usr/lib/cmake/tapa/TAPACCConfig.cmake

But when I was checking the TAPACCConfig.cmake file, I saw that if TAPA_CONNECTIVITY AND TAPA_CONSTRAINT arguments are specified as I did in my CMake file as arguments to add_tapa_target custom function :

CONNECTIVITY ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/connectivity.ini
  CONSTRAINT ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/constraint.tcl

So floorplanning will be automatically set and AutoBridge will run? So this means I dont have to pass --run-floorplanning flag. Right?

[Blaok]

now I received an error saying: ERROR: [VPL 101-2] ERROR: [Vivado 12-1041] No pblock specified to add instances to.

Looks like the CMakeLists.txt for apps/bandwidth is outdated. The connectivity is already specified in link_config.ini and the —connectivity.sp arguments should be removed from CMakeLists.txt.

So floorplanning will be automatically set and AutoBridge will run? So this means I dont have to pass --run-floorplanning flag. Right?

That’s exactly right. Floorplanning is enabled if CONNECTIVITY and CONSTRAINT are supplied. This hasn’t changed since AutoBridge was first integrated.

[enes1994]

Thanks a lot for the answers. They are really helpful. just a curiosity, Are there any reason to use --run-floorplanning in serpens's CMake file?

[Blaok]

Are there any reason to use --run-floorplanning in serpens's CMake file?

I think it was required for some versions of TAPA, when CMake was still using the tapac CLI, where --run-floorplanning is required to include floorplanning as one of the steps TAPA run. There was some debate regarding if --run-floorplanning should be explicitly required if a floorplan output is supplied; the decision was to make it a required argument so users acknowledge that they are running floorplanning. This argument is not applicable in the new tapa CLI, where the optimize-floorplan sub-command is its equivalent.

@linghaosong please correct me if I'm wrong :)

Right. We used --run-floorplanning in the early version, but in the latest version we don't need it anymore.

@enes1994 Following you can find the current options we passed to TAPA https://github.com/linghaosong/Serpens/blob/main/run_tapa.sh
