view pointing to the contents of ../gds/ so that when the assembled
chip's GDS is generated with "cif *hier write disable", the POR
will continue to have the GDS with the proper hierarchical processing.
to resolve the problem with the typo that caused the propagated
GPIO serial load, reset, and clock signals to get scrambled on the
user2 side. Caravel is now LVS clean again (Caravan needs layout
work).
Fixed rstb_h, which was being input to low-voltage blocks. (2)
Fixed flash_csb_ieb_core and flash_clk_ieb_core, which were not
output from housekeeping as they should be; the solution was
to tie the INP_DIS lines low at the pad by connecting them to
the TIE_LO_ESD line. This should probably be addressed in
housekeeping but would change the current pinout.
got removed from its net by a chang in the LEF view of an I/O pad, and
a lack of declaration of an array to attach to pwr_ctrl_out in the
verilog, which is valid verilog but netgen can't know the bus size
without the no-connect net being declared. The remaining issue has to
do with separation of ground domains in the mgmt_protect block.
so that it contains a valid layout after processing by Openlane (since the
verilog module is named gpio_defaults_block). Corrected the orientation of
the defaults block layouts on the right side of Caravel and erased the
incorrect routing there. Reinstated the copyright, user ID text, open source
logo, and Caravel logo. Revised the gen_gpio_defaults.py script to handle
the first five GPIOs in the same way as the others, although as fixed entries
which cannot be modified by the user project designer.
