|
||
<p>The (almost) complete interface of <span class="sc">Hurricane</span> is exported as a <span class="sc">Python</span> module
|
||
and some part of the other components of <span class="sc">Coriolis</span> (each one in a separate
|
||
module). The interface has been made to mirror as closely as possible the
|
||
C++ one, so the C++ doxygen documentation could be used to write code with
|
||
either languages.</p>
|
||
<p><a class="reference external" href="file:../../../index.html">Summary of the C++ Documentation</a></p>
|
||
<p>A script could be run directly in text mode from the command line or through
|
||
the graphical interface (see <a class="reference internal" href="ViewerTools.html#python-scripts-in-cgt"><span class="std std-ref">Executing Python Scripts in Cgt</span></a>).</p>
|
||
<p>Asides for this requirement, the python script can contain anything valid
|
||
in <span class="sc">Python</span>, so don’t hesitate to use any package or extention.</p>

<h2>Plugins<a class="headerlink" href="#plugins" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
||
<p>Plugins are <span class="sc">Python</span> scripts specially crafted to integrate with <span class="cb">cgt</span>.
|
||
Their entry point is a <span class="cb">ScriptMain()</span> method as described in
|
||
<a class="reference internal" href="#python-interface-to-coriolis">Python Interface to Coriolis</a>. They can be called by user scripts
|

through this method.</p>

<h3>Chip Placement<a class="headerlink" href="#chip-placement" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
|
||
<p>Automatically perform the placement of a complete chip. This plugin, as well
|
||
as the other P&R tools expect a specific top-level hierarchy for the design.
|
||
The top-level hierarchy must contains the instances of all the I/O pads and
|
||
<strong>exactly one</strong> instance of the chip’s core model.</p>
|
||
<p> <a class="reference internal" href="../_images/chip-structure-1.png"><img alt="Chip Top Structure" class="align-middle" src="../_images/chip-structure-1.png" style="width: 90%;" /></a> </p>
|
||
<p>The designer must provide a configuration file that define the rules for the
|
||
placement of the top-level hierarchy (that is, the pads and the core).
|
||
This file must be named after the chip’s name, by appending <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_chip.py</span></code>
|
||
(obviously, it is a <span class="sc">Python</span> file). For instance if the chip netlist file
|
||
is called <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">amd2901_crl.vst</span></code>, then the configuration file must be named
|
||
<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">amd2901_crl_chip.vst</span></code>.</p>

<h3>Clock Tree<a class="headerlink" href="#clock-tree" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
|
||
<p>Insert a clock tree into a block. The clock tree uses the H strategy.
|
||
The clock net is splitted into sub-nets, one for each branch of the
|
||
tree.</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><p class="first">On <strong>chips</strong> design, the sub-nets are createds in the model of the
|
||
core block (then trans-hierarchically flattened to be shown at
|
||
chip level).</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li><p class="first">On <strong>blocks</strong>, the sub nets are created directly in the top block.</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li><p class="first">The sub-nets are named according to a simple geometrical scheme.
|
||
A common prefix <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ck_htree</span></code>, then one postfix by level telling
|
||
on which quarter of plane the sub-clock is located:</p>
|
||
<ol class="arabic simple">
|
||
<li><code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_bl</span></code>: bottom left plane quarter.</li>
|
||
<li><code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_br</span></code>: bottom right plane quarter.</li>
|
||
<li><code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_tl</span></code>: top left plane quarter.</li>
|
||
<li><code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_tr</span></code>: top right plane quarter.</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<p>We can have <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ck_htree_bl</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ck_htree_bl_bl</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ch_htree_bl_tl</span></code> and so on.</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>The clock tree plugin works in four steps:</p>
|
||
<ol class="arabic simple">
|
||
<li>Build the clock tree: creates the top-block abutment box, compute the
|
||
levels of H tree neededs and place the clock buffers.</li>
|
||
<li>Once the clock buffers are placed, calls the placer (<span class="sc">Etesian</span>) to place
|
||
the ordinary standart cells, whithout disturbing clock H-tree buffers.</li>
|
||
<li>At this point we know the exact positions of all the DFFs, so we can
|
||
connect them to the nearest H-tree leaf clock signal.</li>
|
||
<li>Leaf clock signals that are not connecteds to any DFFs are removed.</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<p>Netlist reorganisation:</p>
|
||
<ul class="simple">
|
||
<li>Obviously the top block or chip core model netlist is modificated to
|
||
contains all the clock sub-nets. The interface is <em>not</em> changed.</li>
|
||
<li>If the top block contains instances of other models <em>and</em> those models
|
||
contains DFFs that get re-connecteds to the clock sub-nets (from the
|
||
top level). Change both the model netlist and interface to propagate
|
||
the relevant clock sub-nets to the instanciated model. The new model
|
||
with the added clock signal is renamed with a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_clocked</span></code> suffix.
|
||
For example, the sub-block model <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ram.vst</span></code> will become <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ram_clocked.vst</span></code>.</li>
|
||
</ul>

<div class="admonition note">

<p class="last">If you are to re-run the clock tree plugin on a netlist, be careful
