* Effectively reverted the change to add spare logic blocks near each
of the GPIO control blocks by changing the definition of
NUM_SPARE_BLOCKS to 4 (the original number of spare logic blocks)
for both caravel and caravan top level RTL verilog modules.

* Added enough spare logic blocks to have the existing four above
the processor, plus one each per GPIO (38 for caravel, 27 for
caravan).

to caravel_netlists.v when attempting to determine if the
verification testbenches could be run from caravel referencing
caravel_mgmt_soc_litex instead of the other way around. This file
has been reverted back to its original form.
This reverts commit 577cc12fe0.
Reverting the change from issue #16. After some discussion, it has
been decided that it is up to the user to implement the pull-up and
pull-down modes correctly by setting the output enable and driving
the output to the appropriate value. Note that this should be well
documented, if by nothing else than a validation testbench that
excercises a user pull-up and pull-down input mode.
zero level outputs when the user project area is powered down.
That allows the synthesis tools to buffer these outputs. The
protection from floating inputs is left as-is, but all logic that
was unnecessary to be specified by gate instances has been changed
to RTL. This leaves only a handful of signals (logic analyzer input,
user IRQ, and wishbone data out and acknowledge out) to be handled
by explicit logic gate instances.
the left hand side of caravan from gpio_defaults_block_14 to
gpio_defaults_block_25. Otherwise, the script that generates the
custom user configuration won't be able to change the defaults
for GPIO 25.
Corrected the pad constant connections to all be in the correct domain
(1.8V or 3.3V). Created a new "constant_block" module that generates
a single constant 1 and 0 value in the 1.8V domain, and used 7 of these
in the chip_io (and chip_io_alt) modules to create the 1.8V domain
constant signals for the seven pads belonging to the management (clock,
reset, flash SPI, and management GPIO).
inputs that are permanently tied low or high come from either
the local "TIE" pad connections (if they are in the 3.3V
domain) or from a constant one wire in the 1.8V domain that
is generated in the gpio_control_block module and exported
to the chip_io (or chip_io_alt) module.
from the data and replace them with a single flop clocked on the
negative edge of the serial clock. This will completely avoid hold
violations by ensuring that the block's output data bit does not
change anywhere near the clock rising edge, so clocks do not have
to be tightly aligned among all of the GPIO blocks.
* Corrects four signals which were missing from the caravan top level
(management output and output enable to GPIO 0 and 1---these errors
would have prevented the houskeeping SPI from working on caravel).
Corrected RTL verilog (source of the error), GL verilog, and layout.

* (1) Modified the .magicrc file to set a default for PDK if not set in the
environment. (2) Fixed the user ID programming layout to not leave holes
behind when the script moves the vias around (similar to the handling of
the GPIO defaults block). (3) Added substrate isolation to gpio_control_block
and fixed the path references to the standard cells. (4) Fixed the four
missing routes on the Caravan top level. (5) Reinstated the large rendered
labels for the pads on both caravel and caravan. (6) Corrected the top
level gate-level netlist for caravan to add the missing pins to the
management core wrapper. (7) Did the same for the caravan top level RTL.
(8) Created scripts to run full LVS including extracting the management
core wrapper and reading all gate-level verilog submodules. (9) Moved all
of the LVS scripts to the scripts directory.

* Made the changes from pull request #73 as they did not get merged
successfully, and if merged now they will generate conflicts with
this pull request in scripts/set_user_id.py. So it's easier to
just manually add them to this pull request.

* - update caravan configuration
* change correct gpio_default blocks instance names
* implement powerrouting work around
* place spare logic blocks
* keep the history of runs and sym link last/final one
* - update caravan mag, def and gl views
- add fake power routing cell in the rtl as a placeholder for openlane
to prevent routing on that cell
- fix some syntax errors in chip_io_alt
- match simple_por lef pins with mag by regenerating it
* Apply automatic changes to Manifest and README.rst
* add caravan power routing lef
* - update mag and def view of caravan
- add_macro_placement for fake cell
* Added back the power routing to Caravan, fixed DRC errors, ran LVS,
corrected placement of isolated substrate regions, and replaced the
signal routing for the analog lines. Be aware that merging with
main may cause issues with the mgmt_protect.mag file and its
subcells mprj2_logic_high.mag and mprj_logic_high.mag. It may be
worth cherry-picking the files to merge and exclude those layouts.

defines its own modules and therefore needs its own includes. The
implication is that this file now needs to exist in every SoC
implementation's verilog/gl/ directory.
gate-level simulations from running. Corrected caravan_netlists.v,
which did not have the same change made yesterday to caravel_netlists.v
for the DLL.
knowledge and which went undetected since before MPW-one. Modified
the "pll" and "sysctrl" testbenches so that they run and measure
something useful. Both exercise the clock monitoring on GPIO
outputs functions. The PLL test also runs the digital locked
loop (behavioral verilog). The PLL test overlaps sysctrl, but
"pll" cannot be run on gate level verilog, whereas "sysctrl" can.
(input for monitoring) changed from being connected directly to the
user project (where it shouldn't be) to the same signal on the input
side of the management protect block (where it should be). This is
functionally the same. Checked for any other signals connected
directly from the user project to any block other than mgmt_protect,
didn't find any (good). Modified the gate-level netlists and top-level
layouts for caravel and caravan with the corresponding change. This
was the only change affecting layout. Also: Revised the "pll"
testbench. This is still ongoing work. Also: Fixed the way the
pins on I/O pads are declared in chip_io.v, mprj_io.v, and pads.v, so
that it isn't so bizarre. Most of this change is functionally
agnostic (just a change in the way the ifdefs work), but did fix an
incorrect ifdef that causes the whole user power domain to be broken.
which is now done through setting an environment variable to point to the
location of the management SoC wrapper. Added the missing user project
wrappers to the GL directory (copied from the original caravel repository),
and also the GL version of chip_io_alt. Modified the caravan_netlists and
caravel_netlists files to import the correct list of gate level netlists,
which has been reduced by moving "include" statements for components of the
management SoC into the management SoC repository (e.g., caravel_pico).
to housekeeping and the management core wrapper to separate the
wb_cyc_i signal and connect to new signal hk_cyc_o on the
management core. Also: Fixed a dangling input (user_clock) on
the housekeeping (minor error caused by the earlier refactoring
and unnoticed because there is no testbench covering that
function).
