Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Added support for 2-Metal block routing in Anabatic & Katana. * New: In AnabaticEngine::invalidateRoutingPads() this method is a temporary workaround for a Hurricane problems. When an instance is moved, the RoutingPads that use it must be moved accordingly, but they are not invalidated so they stay in the wrong QuadTree. New method ::_resizeMatrix() to be called when the associated Cell is resized. * Bug: In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints() and AutoVertical::getConstraints(), the *target* constraints where never merged. * Change: In AutoHorizontal::getCells() and AutoVertical::getGCells(), now return a boolean to tell if it was ok (must not encounter a NULL GCell while progessing from source to target). * New: In Anabatic::Configuration and Anabatic:Session, create new methods: - getDHorizontalLayer() - getDhorizontalDepth() - getDHorizontalWidth() - getDHorizontalPitch() And so on for Vertical and Contact. They supply depth-independant informations about the H/V layers to build the initial detailed routing. The AutoSegment::create() methods have been modificated accordingly. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add two new types "StdCellRow" and "ChannelRow" for implementing 2-Metal blocks. Rename the GCell::setXY() method in GCell::setSouthWestCorner(), move the contents of GCell::updateContactsPosition() into it and suppress it. WARNING: In case of a GCell shrink this may cause problems. But for now we only expand... New method GCell::getNetCount() to count the number of Net going though the GCell. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, add specific support for capacity of 2-Metal routing channels. * Change: In Anabatic::Dijsktra various methods, replace the "gcell->isMatrix()" calls by "not gcell->isAnalog()". Add more check so that the methods pertaining to the analog routing (GRData) are not called in digital mode. * New: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), add support for 2-Metal specific cases. That is, always break in case of vertical pass-through or U-turn. The global routing must always be broken in H-Channel. * New: In Anabatic::GCell & Anabatic::Edge, make use of the Session mechanism to ensure the revalidation. The "::revalidate()" method is then moved as "::materialize()" (overload of Go) and "::_invalidate()" becomes "::invalidate()" * Change: In LoadGlobalRouting, cosmetic rename of SortHkByX in SortHookByX. * New: In GCellTopology, added support for building 2-Metal topologies. * ForkStack is now an object attribute as many methods do need it. * To push segments/hook on the stack, a new method "push()" is available. Perform NULL and fromHook checking. Can also setup _southWestContact or _northEastContact if it is the "from" edge. * N/S/E/W edges are now vector as in digital channel mode there can be more than one. * Added build topological build methods: - doRp_2m_Access() RoutingPad stem access. - _do_2m_1G_1M1() North or south access. - _do_2m_2G_1M1() North AND south access. - _do_2m_xG() H-Channel routing. * New: In Anabatic::Matrix, new ::resize() function, as Cell can be resizeds. * New: In Anabatic::Vertex, new static method ::getValueString() for a friendly text rendering. * New: In Katana::DigitalDistance, support for channel routing. * Change: In KatanaEngine::digitalSetup() and KatanaEngine::runGlobalrouter(), for channel routing, calls to setupPowerRails() and protectRoutingPads() must be called after the core block has been fully dimensionned. ::runGlobalrouter() contains the code tasked with the grid creation and channel sizing. * New: In KatanaEngine: Added support for core block, for 2-Metal routing. May be expanded for over-the-cell routing in the future. Added methods : - isDigitalMode() - isAnalogMode() - isMixedMode() - isChannelMode() - getBlock() / addBlock() - setupChannelMode() - createChannel() * New: In Katana, new class Block to manage core blocks and perform channel routing. * New: In Katana::Session, new convenience method "isOpen()".

Support for density estimation for the global router. * Bug: In Anabatic::Edge::getDistance(), remove the additionnal 0.1 added to horizontal edges. This was for testing before the hScaling parameter was added (to the distance computation in GlobalRoute). * New: Anabatic::Path_Edges, collectio to walkthrough all the edges between two node. More complex than in Knik as we are no longer using a regular grid. We may request the north bound path or south bound path. Collection returned by AnabaticEngine::getEdgesUnderPath(). * New: In Anabatic::NetData, add a new flag GlobalEstimated to tell if the net RMST has been computed (using FLUTE). * New: In Anabatic::PriorityQueue, used to sort Vertexes by increasing distances, add a new criterion to be used in case of distance equality. The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

#include "flute.h"
Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

#include "etesian/BloatProperty.h"
Added support for 2-Metal block routing in Anabatic & Katana. * New: In AnabaticEngine::invalidateRoutingPads() this method is a temporary workaround for a Hurricane problems. When an instance is moved, the RoutingPads that use it must be moved accordingly, but they are not invalidated so they stay in the wrong QuadTree. New method ::_resizeMatrix() to be called when the associated Cell is resized. * Bug: In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints() and AutoVertical::getConstraints(), the *target* constraints where never merged. * Change: In AutoHorizontal::getCells() and AutoVertical::getGCells(), now return a boolean to tell if it was ok (must not encounter a NULL GCell while progessing from source to target). * New: In Anabatic::Configuration and Anabatic:Session, create new methods: - getDHorizontalLayer() - getDhorizontalDepth() - getDHorizontalWidth() - getDHorizontalPitch() And so on for Vertical and Contact. They supply depth-independant informations about the H/V layers to build the initial detailed routing. The AutoSegment::create() methods have been modificated accordingly. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add two new types "StdCellRow" and "ChannelRow" for implementing 2-Metal blocks. Rename the GCell::setXY() method in GCell::setSouthWestCorner(), move the contents of GCell::updateContactsPosition() into it and suppress it. WARNING: In case of a GCell shrink this may cause problems. But for now we only expand... New method GCell::getNetCount() to count the number of Net going though the GCell. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, add specific support for capacity of 2-Metal routing channels. * Change: In Anabatic::Dijsktra various methods, replace the "gcell->isMatrix()" calls by "not gcell->isAnalog()". Add more check so that the methods pertaining to the analog routing (GRData) are not called in digital mode. * New: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), add support for 2-Metal specific cases. That is, always break in case of vertical pass-through or U-turn. The global routing must always be broken in H-Channel. * New: In Anabatic::GCell & Anabatic::Edge, make use of the Session mechanism to ensure the revalidation. The "::revalidate()" method is then moved as "::materialize()" (overload of Go) and "::_invalidate()" becomes "::invalidate()" * Change: In LoadGlobalRouting, cosmetic rename of SortHkByX in SortHookByX. * New: In GCellTopology, added support for building 2-Metal topologies. * ForkStack is now an object attribute as many methods do need it. * To push segments/hook on the stack, a new method "push()" is available. Perform NULL and fromHook checking. Can also setup _southWestContact or _northEastContact if it is the "from" edge. * N/S/E/W edges are now vector as in digital channel mode there can be more than one. * Added build topological build methods: - doRp_2m_Access() RoutingPad stem access. - _do_2m_1G_1M1() North or south access. - _do_2m_2G_1M1() North AND south access. - _do_2m_xG() H-Channel routing. * New: In Anabatic::Matrix, new ::resize() function, as Cell can be resizeds. * New: In Anabatic::Vertex, new static method ::getValueString() for a friendly text rendering. * New: In Katana::DigitalDistance, support for channel routing. * Change: In KatanaEngine::digitalSetup() and KatanaEngine::runGlobalrouter(), for channel routing, calls to setupPowerRails() and protectRoutingPads() must be called after the core block has been fully dimensionned. ::runGlobalrouter() contains the code tasked with the grid creation and channel sizing. * New: In KatanaEngine: Added support for core block, for 2-Metal routing. May be expanded for over-the-cell routing in the future. Added methods : - isDigitalMode() - isAnalogMode() - isMixedMode() - isChannelMode() - getBlock() / addBlock() - setupChannelMode() - createChannel() * New: In Katana, new class Block to manage core blocks and perform channel routing. * New: In Katana::Session, new convenience method "isOpen()".

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Support for density estimation for the global router. * Bug: In Anabatic::Edge::getDistance(), remove the additionnal 0.1 added to horizontal edges. This was for testing before the hScaling parameter was added (to the distance computation in GlobalRoute). * New: Anabatic::Path_Edges, collectio to walkthrough all the edges between two node. More complex than in Knik as we are no longer using a regular grid. We may request the north bound path or south bound path. Collection returned by AnabaticEngine::getEdgesUnderPath(). * New: In Anabatic::NetData, add a new flag GlobalEstimated to tell if the net RMST has been computed (using FLUTE). * New: In Anabatic::PriorityQueue, used to sort Vertexes by increasing distances, add a new criterion to be used in case of distance equality. The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

Forgot to perform Track re-order after removing zero-length segments. * Change: In Anabatic::Autocontact, replace getMinDepth() and getMaxDepth() by getDepthSpan(). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::canMoveUp(), add an optional check of low up density (Flags::CheckLowUpDensity). Allows to move up a segment if the up density is (very) low, and in this case it's more efficient than breaking it to fit in the lower layer. canMoveUp() is now able to perform the same work as canPivotUp() if *not* supplied the flag Flags::IgnoreContacts. * New: In Katana, in GlobalRouting::DigitalDistance() now take into account the cost of a VIA (currently set to 2.5). Need to known the Net currently routed in the DigitalDistance object itself. * Change: In Katana::Track::Element::canPivotUp(), now also takes a flag parameter. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator, new flag IgnoreContacts to mirror the one of Anabatic. * Change: In Katana::SegmentFsm, allocate once a Manipulator object instead of many times on the fly. In SegmentFsm::_slackenGlobal(), in the slacken state, if the up density is (very) low, bypass to move up instead of slackening. This solve better the routing of the control part of the register file. The register file having a pathological case of terminal placement: many punctual terminals aligneds in METAL2 *and* a grid of METAL2 and METAL3 blockages near below... * Bug: In Katana::Session::_revalidate(), after removing the zero-length segments, forgot to re-order the track, leading to many stranges effects as the indexes where no longer coherent in the Track.

public:
Corrections in the Dijkstra global routing (ripup) mechanism. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra, the degree of a vertex (the number of neighbors belonging to the same net) was miscalculated. This was leading, in the materialize step to some feed-through vertexes not being broken. Leading in turn to incomplete transformation of the detailed routing. Also in _trackback(), the degree of the first vertex we were backtracking from was not incremented. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), systematically use GCell::breakGoThrough() on both source and target. This is needed when we are in the ripup phase as both source and target can be go-through. This was also leading to incomplete detailed routing transformation. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), ripup one third of the segments instead of thoses exeeding the global length threshold. This way we are sure to desaturate an edge. Needs to be further calibrated. * Change: In Aanabatic::GCell::breakGoThrough(), no longer return NULL. Return existing gcontact if any. Break if it is a go-through and create a new gcontact in last resort. Maybe rename this function. * New: In Anabatic::Configuration, new parameters: - anabatic.edgeHScaling, to adjust the length of the horizontal edges relative to the vertical ones (this is a ratio). - anabatic.globalIterations, set the maximum number of ripup passes of the global router. * New: In CRL/etc/*/kite.conf, added new parameters anabatic.edgeHScaling and anabatic.globalIterations. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, take into account the new edgeHScaling factor. Must be used when the capacity of V-edges differs greatly for H-edges (case of AMS 350nm c35b4 for instance). * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, the historic cost is computed for an edge length of "1". Must be multiplicated by the current edge length to have any measurable effect. This bug is finally explaining why the ripup was producing the same solutions over and over, the historical cost was negligible!

Forgot to perform Track re-order after removing zero-length segments. * Change: In Anabatic::Autocontact, replace getMinDepth() and getMaxDepth() by getDepthSpan(). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::canMoveUp(), add an optional check of low up density (Flags::CheckLowUpDensity). Allows to move up a segment if the up density is (very) low, and in this case it's more efficient than breaking it to fit in the lower layer. canMoveUp() is now able to perform the same work as canPivotUp() if *not* supplied the flag Flags::IgnoreContacts. * New: In Katana, in GlobalRouting::DigitalDistance() now take into account the cost of a VIA (currently set to 2.5). Need to known the Net currently routed in the DigitalDistance object itself. * Change: In Katana::Track::Element::canPivotUp(), now also takes a flag parameter. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator, new flag IgnoreContacts to mirror the one of Anabatic. * Change: In Katana::SegmentFsm, allocate once a Manipulator object instead of many times on the fly. In SegmentFsm::_slackenGlobal(), in the slacken state, if the up density is (very) low, bypass to move up instead of slackening. This solve better the routing of the control part of the register file. The register file having a pathological case of terminal placement: many punctual terminals aligneds in METAL2 *and* a grid of METAL2 and METAL3 blockages near below... * Bug: In Katana::Session::_revalidate(), after removing the zero-length segments, forgot to re-order the track, leading to many stranges effects as the indexes where no longer coherent in the Track.

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside.

This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type...

Upgrade of Katana detailed router to support Arlet 6502. * Change: In Hurricane::SharedName, replace the incremental Id by a hash key. This is to ensure better deterministic properties. Between use cases, additional strings may have to be allocated, shitfing the ids. Even if hash can be duplicated, we should be able to ensure that the absolute order in map table should be preserved. Supplemental strings are inserted in a way that keep the previous order. * Change: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/kite.conf, add "katabatic.routingGauge" default parameter value ("sxlib"). * Change: In CRL/etc/common/technology.conf, define minimal spacing for symbolic layers too (added for METAL4 only for now). * Change: In CRL::Histogram, extend support to dynamically sized histograms. Add a text pretty print with table and pseudo-curve. * Change: In Cumulus/plugins/ClockTreePlugin, create blockage under the block corona corners so the global router do not draw wire under them. This was creating deadlock for the detailed router. When the abutment has to be computed, directly use Etesian to do it instead of duplicating the computation in the Python plugin. * New: In Etesian, as Coloquinte seems reluctant to evenly spread the standard cells, we trick it by making them bigger during the placement stage. Furthermore, we do not not uniformely increase the size of the cells but create a "bloating profile" based on cell size, cell name or it's density of terminals. Currently only two profiles are defined, "disabled" which does nothing and "nsxlib" targeted on 4 metal layer technologies (aka AMS 350nm, c35b4). * Bug: In Knik::MatrixVertex, load the default routing gauge using the configuration parameter "katabatic.routingGauge" as the default one may not be the first registered one. * New: In AnabaticEngine::setupNetDatas(), build a dynamic historgram of the nets terminal numbers. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact::Invalidate(), always invalidate the contact cache when topology is invalidated. In case of multiple invalidations, if the first did not invalidate the cache, later one that may need it where not allowed to do so. The end result was correct nonetheless, but it did generate annoying error messages. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTurn::updateTopology(), bad computation of the contact's depth when delta == 2. * Bug: In Anabatic::Gcell::getCapacity(), was always returning the west edge capacity, even for the westermost GCell, should be the east edge in that case. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new measure "distance to terminal". This is the minimal number of segments separating the current one from the nearest RoutingPad. This replace the previous "strong terminal" and "weak terminal" flags. This distance is used by Katana to sort the events, we route the segments *from* the RoutingPads *outward*. The idea being that if we cannot event connect to the RoutingPad, there is no points continuing as thoses segments are the more constraineds. This gives an order close to the simple ascending metals but with better results. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new flag "Unbreakable", disable dogleg making on those segments. mainly intended for local segments directly connecteds to RoutingPads (distance == 0). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, more aggressive reducing of segments. Now the only case where a segment cannot be reduced is when it is one horizontal branch in a HTee or a vertical on a VTee. Check if, when not accounted the source & target VIAs are still connex, if so, allow reducing. * New: In Anabatic::AutoContact, new state flags CntVDogleg & CntHDogleg mainly to prevent making doglegs twice on a turn contact. This is to limit over-fragmentation. If one dogleg doesn't solve the problem, making a second one will make things worse only... * Bug: In Anabatic::Configuration::selectRpcomponent(), we were choosing the component with the *smallest* span instead of the *bigger* one. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, introduce a new flag "GoStraight" to tell that no turn go be made inside those GCells. Mainly used underneath a block corona. * New: In AnabaticEngine::layerAssign(), new GCellRps & RpsInRow to manage GCells with too many terminals. Slacken at least one RoutingPad access when there is more than 8 RoutingPad in the GCell (slacken or change a vertical METAL2 (non-preferred) into a METAL3). * Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV, allow the use of terminal connection in non-preferred direction. That is, vertical METAL2 directly connected to the RoutingPad (then a horizontal METAL2). This alllows for short dogleg without clutering the METAL3 layer (critical for AMS c35b4). Done in NetBuilderHV::doRp_Access(), with a new UseNonPref flag. Perform some other tweaking on METAL1 access topologies, to also minimize METAL3 use. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeNetConstraints(), also compute the distance to RoutingPad for segments. Set the Unbreakable flag, based on the distance and segment length (local, short global or long global). New local function "propagateDistanceFromRp()". * Change: In AnabaticEngine.h, the sorting class for NetData, SparsityOrder, is modificated so net with a degree superior to 10 are sorted first, whatever their sparsity. This is to work in tandem with GlobalRouting. * New: In Katana::TrackSegmentNonPref, introduce a class to manage segment in non-preferred routing direction. Mostly intended for small METAL2 vertical directly connected to RoutingPad. Modifications to manage this new variant all through Katana. * Change: In Katana::GlobalRoute, DigitalDistance honor the GoStraight flag of the GCell. Do not make bend inside thoses GCells. * Change: In KatanaEngine::runGlobalRouter(), high degree nets (>= 10) are routed first and whitout the global routing estimation. There should be few of them so they wont create saturations and we want them as straight as possible. Detour are for long be-points. Set the saerch halo to one GCell in the initial routing stage (before ripup). * Bug: In KatanaEngine & NegociateWindow, call _computeCagedconstraints() inside NegociateWindow::run(), as segments are inserted into tracks only at that point so we cannot make the computation earlier. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator::repackPerpandiculars(), add a flag to select whether to replace the perpandiculars *after* or *before* the current segment. * Change: In Katana::NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), when the segment is fully enclosed inside a global, the longest overlap cost is set to the shortest global hoverhang (before or after). When the cost is for a global, set an infinite cost if the overlapping segment has a RP distance less or equal to 1 (this is an access segment). * Bug: In Katana::PowerRailsPlane::Rail::doLayout(), correct computation of the segments extension cap. * New: In Katana::QueryPowerRails::addToPowerRail(), add support for Pad. * Change: In Katana/PreProcess::protectCagedTerminals(), apply the contraints to any turn connected to the first segment of the RoutingPad so the perpandicular constraints got propagated to the perpandicular segment... * Change: In RoutingEvent, cache the "distance to RP" value. * Change: In RoutingEvent::Key::compare(), sort *first* on distance to RoutingPad, then layer depth. If both distance to RoutingPad is null, then sort on segment length. * Change: In RoutingEvent::_processRepair(), try a repack perpandicular with perpandiculars first (then with perpandicular last, then give up). * Change: In SegmentFsm::bindToTrack() and moveToTrack(), set an axis hint when creating the insertion event. * Change: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), add a step through slacken between minimize and maximum slack (wihch directly end up in unimplemented). * Change: In Session::_addInsertEvent(), add an axis parameter needed when the axis of the segment is not the one of the track (case of wide segments or non-preferred direction). * Bug: In Track::_preDestroy(), bad management of the TrackElement reference count. Destroy the segment only when reaching zero... * Bug: In Track::expandFreeIneterval(), forgotten to manage case when there is a set of overlaping segments at the "end" of the track, the EndIsTrackMax was not set. * Change: In TrackCost::Compare, increase the cost when an overlaping segment is at it's ripup limit. We should try *not* to rip it up if we can. Add a dedicated flag "AtRipupLimit". * Change: In TrackElement, add proxies for isUnbreakable(), new function updateTrackSpan(). * New: In TrackFixedSegment CTOR, when a supply wire of METAL2 or above is found, make the underlying GCells "GoStraight". * New: In TrackElement::canDogleg(GCell*), check for already done perpandicular dogleg on source/target (reject if so).

Added support for 2-Metal block routing in Anabatic & Katana. * New: In AnabaticEngine::invalidateRoutingPads() this method is a temporary workaround for a Hurricane problems. When an instance is moved, the RoutingPads that use it must be moved accordingly, but they are not invalidated so they stay in the wrong QuadTree. New method ::_resizeMatrix() to be called when the associated Cell is resized. * Bug: In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints() and AutoVertical::getConstraints(), the *target* constraints where never merged. * Change: In AutoHorizontal::getCells() and AutoVertical::getGCells(), now return a boolean to tell if it was ok (must not encounter a NULL GCell while progessing from source to target). * New: In Anabatic::Configuration and Anabatic:Session, create new methods: - getDHorizontalLayer() - getDhorizontalDepth() - getDHorizontalWidth() - getDHorizontalPitch() And so on for Vertical and Contact. They supply depth-independant informations about the H/V layers to build the initial detailed routing. The AutoSegment::create() methods have been modificated accordingly. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add two new types "StdCellRow" and "ChannelRow" for implementing 2-Metal blocks. Rename the GCell::setXY() method in GCell::setSouthWestCorner(), move the contents of GCell::updateContactsPosition() into it and suppress it. WARNING: In case of a GCell shrink this may cause problems. But for now we only expand... New method GCell::getNetCount() to count the number of Net going though the GCell. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, add specific support for capacity of 2-Metal routing channels. * Change: In Anabatic::Dijsktra various methods, replace the "gcell->isMatrix()" calls by "not gcell->isAnalog()". Add more check so that the methods pertaining to the analog routing (GRData) are not called in digital mode. * New: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), add support for 2-Metal specific cases. That is, always break in case of vertical pass-through or U-turn. The global routing must always be broken in H-Channel. * New: In Anabatic::GCell & Anabatic::Edge, make use of the Session mechanism to ensure the revalidation. The "::revalidate()" method is then moved as "::materialize()" (overload of Go) and "::_invalidate()" becomes "::invalidate()" * Change: In LoadGlobalRouting, cosmetic rename of SortHkByX in SortHookByX. * New: In GCellTopology, added support for building 2-Metal topologies. * ForkStack is now an object attribute as many methods do need it. * To push segments/hook on the stack, a new method "push()" is available. Perform NULL and fromHook checking. Can also setup _southWestContact or _northEastContact if it is the "from" edge. * N/S/E/W edges are now vector as in digital channel mode there can be more than one. * Added build topological build methods: - doRp_2m_Access() RoutingPad stem access. - _do_2m_1G_1M1() North or south access. - _do_2m_2G_1M1() North AND south access. - _do_2m_xG() H-Channel routing. * New: In Anabatic::Matrix, new ::resize() function, as Cell can be resizeds. * New: In Anabatic::Vertex, new static method ::getValueString() for a friendly text rendering. * New: In Katana::DigitalDistance, support for channel routing. * Change: In KatanaEngine::digitalSetup() and KatanaEngine::runGlobalrouter(), for channel routing, calls to setupPowerRails() and protectRoutingPads() must be called after the core block has been fully dimensionned. ::runGlobalrouter() contains the code tasked with the grid creation and channel sizing. * New: In KatanaEngine: Added support for core block, for 2-Metal routing. May be expanded for over-the-cell routing in the future. Added methods : - isDigitalMode() - isAnalogMode() - isMixedMode() - isChannelMode() - getBlock() / addBlock() - setupChannelMode() - createChannel() * New: In Katana, new class Block to manage core blocks and perform channel routing. * New: In Katana::Session, new convenience method "isOpen()".

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).
2016-08-15 09:30:13 -05:00
Upgrade of Katana detailed router to support Arlet 6502. * Change: In Hurricane::SharedName, replace the incremental Id by a hash key. This is to ensure better deterministic properties. Between use cases, additional strings may have to be allocated, shitfing the ids. Even if hash can be duplicated, we should be able to ensure that the absolute order in map table should be preserved. Supplemental strings are inserted in a way that keep the previous order. * Change: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/kite.conf, add "katabatic.routingGauge" default parameter value ("sxlib"). * Change: In CRL/etc/common/technology.conf, define minimal spacing for symbolic layers too (added for METAL4 only for now). * Change: In CRL::Histogram, extend support to dynamically sized histograms. Add a text pretty print with table and pseudo-curve. * Change: In Cumulus/plugins/ClockTreePlugin, create blockage under the block corona corners so the global router do not draw wire under them. This was creating deadlock for the detailed router. When the abutment has to be computed, directly use Etesian to do it instead of duplicating the computation in the Python plugin. * New: In Etesian, as Coloquinte seems reluctant to evenly spread the standard cells, we trick it by making them bigger during the placement stage. Furthermore, we do not not uniformely increase the size of the cells but create a "bloating profile" based on cell size, cell name or it's density of terminals. Currently only two profiles are defined, "disabled" which does nothing and "nsxlib" targeted on 4 metal layer technologies (aka AMS 350nm, c35b4). * Bug: In Knik::MatrixVertex, load the default routing gauge using the configuration parameter "katabatic.routingGauge" as the default one may not be the first registered one. * New: In AnabaticEngine::setupNetDatas(), build a dynamic historgram of the nets terminal numbers. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact::Invalidate(), always invalidate the contact cache when topology is invalidated. In case of multiple invalidations, if the first did not invalidate the cache, later one that may need it where not allowed to do so. The end result was correct nonetheless, but it did generate annoying error messages. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTurn::updateTopology(), bad computation of the contact's depth when delta == 2. * Bug: In Anabatic::Gcell::getCapacity(), was always returning the west edge capacity, even for the westermost GCell, should be the east edge in that case. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new measure "distance to terminal". This is the minimal number of segments separating the current one from the nearest RoutingPad. This replace the previous "strong terminal" and "weak terminal" flags. This distance is used by Katana to sort the events, we route the segments *from* the RoutingPads *outward*. The idea being that if we cannot event connect to the RoutingPad, there is no points continuing as thoses segments are the more constraineds. This gives an order close to the simple ascending metals but with better results. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new flag "Unbreakable", disable dogleg making on those segments. mainly intended for local segments directly connecteds to RoutingPads (distance == 0). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, more aggressive reducing of segments. Now the only case where a segment cannot be reduced is when it is one horizontal branch in a HTee or a vertical on a VTee. Check if, when not accounted the source & target VIAs are still connex, if so, allow reducing. * New: In Anabatic::AutoContact, new state flags CntVDogleg & CntHDogleg mainly to prevent making doglegs twice on a turn contact. This is to limit over-fragmentation. If one dogleg doesn't solve the problem, making a second one will make things worse only... * Bug: In Anabatic::Configuration::selectRpcomponent(), we were choosing the component with the *smallest* span instead of the *bigger* one. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, introduce a new flag "GoStraight" to tell that no turn go be made inside those GCells. Mainly used underneath a block corona. * New: In AnabaticEngine::layerAssign(), new GCellRps & RpsInRow to manage GCells with too many terminals. Slacken at least one RoutingPad access when there is more than 8 RoutingPad in the GCell (slacken or change a vertical METAL2 (non-preferred) into a METAL3). * Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV, allow the use of terminal connection in non-preferred direction. That is, vertical METAL2 directly connected to the RoutingPad (then a horizontal METAL2). This alllows for short dogleg without clutering the METAL3 layer (critical for AMS c35b4). Done in NetBuilderHV::doRp_Access(), with a new UseNonPref flag. Perform some other tweaking on METAL1 access topologies, to also minimize METAL3 use. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeNetConstraints(), also compute the distance to RoutingPad for segments. Set the Unbreakable flag, based on the distance and segment length (local, short global or long global). New local function "propagateDistanceFromRp()". * Change: In AnabaticEngine.h, the sorting class for NetData, SparsityOrder, is modificated so net with a degree superior to 10 are sorted first, whatever their sparsity. This is to work in tandem with GlobalRouting. * New: In Katana::TrackSegmentNonPref, introduce a class to manage segment in non-preferred routing direction. Mostly intended for small METAL2 vertical directly connected to RoutingPad. Modifications to manage this new variant all through Katana. * Change: In Katana::GlobalRoute, DigitalDistance honor the GoStraight flag of the GCell. Do not make bend inside thoses GCells. * Change: In KatanaEngine::runGlobalRouter(), high degree nets (>= 10) are routed first and whitout the global routing estimation. There should be few of them so they wont create saturations and we want them as straight as possible. Detour are for long be-points. Set the saerch halo to one GCell in the initial routing stage (before ripup). * Bug: In KatanaEngine & NegociateWindow, call _computeCagedconstraints() inside NegociateWindow::run(), as segments are inserted into tracks only at that point so we cannot make the computation earlier. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator::repackPerpandiculars(), add a flag to select whether to replace the perpandiculars *after* or *before* the current segment. * Change: In Katana::NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), when the segment is fully enclosed inside a global, the longest overlap cost is set to the shortest global hoverhang (before or after). When the cost is for a global, set an infinite cost if the overlapping segment has a RP distance less or equal to 1 (this is an access segment). * Bug: In Katana::PowerRailsPlane::Rail::doLayout(), correct computation of the segments extension cap. * New: In Katana::QueryPowerRails::addToPowerRail(), add support for Pad. * Change: In Katana/PreProcess::protectCagedTerminals(), apply the contraints to any turn connected to the first segment of the RoutingPad so the perpandicular constraints got propagated to the perpandicular segment... * Change: In RoutingEvent, cache the "distance to RP" value. * Change: In RoutingEvent::Key::compare(), sort *first* on distance to RoutingPad, then layer depth. If both distance to RoutingPad is null, then sort on segment length. * Change: In RoutingEvent::_processRepair(), try a repack perpandicular with perpandiculars first (then with perpandicular last, then give up). * Change: In SegmentFsm::bindToTrack() and moveToTrack(), set an axis hint when creating the insertion event. * Change: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), add a step through slacken between minimize and maximum slack (wihch directly end up in unimplemented). * Change: In Session::_addInsertEvent(), add an axis parameter needed when the axis of the segment is not the one of the track (case of wide segments or non-preferred direction). * Bug: In Track::_preDestroy(), bad management of the TrackElement reference count. Destroy the segment only when reaching zero... * Bug: In Track::expandFreeIneterval(), forgotten to manage case when there is a set of overlaping segments at the "end" of the track, the EndIsTrackMax was not set. * Change: In TrackCost::Compare, increase the cost when an overlaping segment is at it's ripup limit. We should try *not* to rip it up if we can. Add a dedicated flag "AtRipupLimit". * Change: In TrackElement, add proxies for isUnbreakable(), new function updateTrackSpan(). * New: In TrackFixedSegment CTOR, when a supply wire of METAL2 or above is found, make the underlying GCells "GoStraight". * New: In TrackElement::canDogleg(GCell*), check for already done perpandicular dogleg on source/target (reject if so).

return Vertex::unreachable;
Validating channel routing mode (two metals) on SNX. * New: In Hurricane::Entity, add an id counter limit and a memory size limit. The two limits are checked only when a new Entity object is created. This should help avoiding massive memory links. * New: In CRL Core, add a "crlcore.groundName" and a "crlcore.powerName" parameter to specify the name of the ground/power signals to be created if they are missing in a Cell. For Alliance libraries it would be "vss" & "vdd" (default values), but for real technologies, it is often "gnd!" & "vdd!". The Blif parser is modificated to make use of it. * Bug: In AnabaticEngine::unify(), set the resulting unified segment in the center of the GCells common side. Gcells under a segment are found by using the edge that cover the segment axis. When we have a "bend" GCell stack and the axis is wrong, they could be ommited. This was causing deleted segments to be not removed from some Edges, then core dump. * Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::create(), smarter choosing of the reference contact, select the fixed or terminal one instead of always the source one. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::isEnding(), new function to check if a segment going through an Edge is starting/ending in either source or target GCell of the edge (active only when running in channel mode). * New: In Anabatic::Edge::add(), a segment takes part in the occupancy only if it is not ending in either source or target (channel mode only). The occupancy due to terminal is pre-computed in Katana. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), in channel mode, never ripup a segment which is ending in either source or target (we *have* to access this edge to connect to the terminal). * Bug: In Anabatic::GCell::hcut() and vcut(), force the update of the Edge which is on the side that will get splitted by the cut. It's capacity will be reduced to it must be updated. * Change: In Anabatic::GCell::updateGContacts() add a flag to conditionnally update horizontals or verticals only. We may require only a partial update when resizing the GCell in only one direction. This, again, related to the fact that we compute the GCells under a segment thanks to it's axis position, so we need to be very careful when modificating axis. * Change: In Katana::Block::resizeChannels(), only update GContact vertical position. Do not disturb X positions of segments. * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, in channel mode, some Edges can have a zero capacity, but still be reachable if the net has a terminal in either source or target. Look for this case and return a distance of zero instead of "unreachable". This was causing the global routing not to complete in channel mode. For computing the edge distance, makes the vertical edges much more long (10 times) than the horizontal ones as the vertical capacity is very limited. Hard coded for now, should make it a parameter in the future. * Change: In KatanaEngine::annotateGlobalGraph(), decrease the capacity of edges with reserveCapacity for each terminal inside a GCell. Both north and south edges are decreased as we a terminal will block both north and south edges. As a counterpart, the Edge capacity is not decreased when the global router connect to a terminal. * Change: In Katana::RoutingEvent::revalidate(), when in repair stage, do not expand the slack for horizontal segments in channel mode. So they may not overlap the standard cell row. * Bug: In Stratus documentation, do not use the french option in babel, the documentation is in english! * New: In Documentation, added Hurricane/Python tutorial, part for drawing layout.

Added support for 2-Metal block routing in Anabatic & Katana. * New: In AnabaticEngine::invalidateRoutingPads() this method is a temporary workaround for a Hurricane problems. When an instance is moved, the RoutingPads that use it must be moved accordingly, but they are not invalidated so they stay in the wrong QuadTree. New method ::_resizeMatrix() to be called when the associated Cell is resized. * Bug: In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints() and AutoVertical::getConstraints(), the *target* constraints where never merged. * Change: In AutoHorizontal::getCells() and AutoVertical::getGCells(), now return a boolean to tell if it was ok (must not encounter a NULL GCell while progessing from source to target). * New: In Anabatic::Configuration and Anabatic:Session, create new methods: - getDHorizontalLayer() - getDhorizontalDepth() - getDHorizontalWidth() - getDHorizontalPitch() And so on for Vertical and Contact. They supply depth-independant informations about the H/V layers to build the initial detailed routing. The AutoSegment::create() methods have been modificated accordingly. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add two new types "StdCellRow" and "ChannelRow" for implementing 2-Metal blocks. Rename the GCell::setXY() method in GCell::setSouthWestCorner(), move the contents of GCell::updateContactsPosition() into it and suppress it. WARNING: In case of a GCell shrink this may cause problems. But for now we only expand... New method GCell::getNetCount() to count the number of Net going though the GCell. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, add specific support for capacity of 2-Metal routing channels. * Change: In Anabatic::Dijsktra various methods, replace the "gcell->isMatrix()" calls by "not gcell->isAnalog()". Add more check so that the methods pertaining to the analog routing (GRData) are not called in digital mode. * New: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), add support for 2-Metal specific cases.

Perform NULL and fromHook checking. Can also setup _southWestContact or _northEastContact if it is the "from" edge. * N/S/E/W edges are now vector as in digital channel mode there can be more than one. * Added build topological build methods: - doRp_2m_Access() RoutingPad stem access. - _do_2m_1G_1M1() North or south access. - _do_2m_2G_1M1() North AND south access. - _do_2m_xG() H-Channel routing. * New: In Anabatic::Matrix, new ::resize() function, as Cell can be resizeds. * New: In Anabatic::Vertex, new static method ::getValueString() for a friendly text rendering. * New: In Katana::DigitalDistance, support for channel routing. * Change: In KatanaEngine::digitalSetup() and KatanaEngine::runGlobalrouter(), for channel routing, calls to setupPowerRails() and protectRoutingPads() must be called after the core block has been fully dimensionned. ::runGlobalrouter() contains the code tasked with the grid creation and channel sizing. * New: In KatanaEngine: Added support for core block, for 2-Metal routing. May be expanded for over-the-cell routing in the future. Added methods : - isDigitalMode() - isAnalogMode() - isMixedMode() - isChannelMode() - getBlock() / addBlock() - setupChannelMode() - createChannel() * New: In Katana, new class Block to manage core blocks and perform channel routing. * New: In Katana::Session, new convenience method "isOpen()".

float congestionCost = 1.0;
Support for density estimation for the global router. * Bug: In Anabatic::Edge::getDistance(), remove the additionnal 0.1 added to horizontal edges. This was for testing before the hScaling parameter was added (to the distance computation in GlobalRoute). * New: Anabatic::Path_Edges, collectio to walkthrough all the edges between two node. More complex than in Knik as we are no longer using a regular grid. We may request the north bound path or south bound path. Collection returned by AnabaticEngine::getEdgesUnderPath(). * New: In Anabatic::NetData, add a new flag GlobalEstimated to tell if the net RMST has been computed (using FLUTE). * New: In Anabatic::PriorityQueue, used to sort Vertexes by increasing distances, add a new criterion to be used in case of distance equality. The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

Forgot to perform Track re-order after removing zero-length segments. * Change: In Anabatic::Autocontact, replace getMinDepth() and getMaxDepth() by getDepthSpan(). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::canMoveUp(), add an optional check of low up density (Flags::CheckLowUpDensity). Allows to move up a segment if the up density is (very) low, and in this case it's more efficient than breaking it to fit in the lower layer. canMoveUp() is now able to perform the same work as canPivotUp() if *not* supplied the flag Flags::IgnoreContacts. * New: In Katana, in GlobalRouting::DigitalDistance() now take into account the cost of a VIA (currently set to 2.5). Need to known the Net currently routed in the DigitalDistance object itself. * Change: In Katana::Track::Element::canPivotUp(), now also takes a flag parameter. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator, new flag IgnoreContacts to mirror the one of Anabatic. * Change: In Katana::SegmentFsm, allocate once a Manipulator object instead of many times on the fly. In SegmentFsm::_slackenGlobal(), in the slacken state, if the up density is (very) low, bypass to move up instead of slackening. This solve better the routing of the control part of the register file. The register file having a pathological case of terminal placement: many punctual terminals aligneds in METAL2 *and* a grid of METAL2 and METAL3 blockages near below... * Bug: In Katana::Session::_revalidate(), after removing the zero-length segments, forgot to re-order the track, leading to many stranges effects as the indexes where no longer coherent in the Track.

The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

Validating channel routing mode (two metals) on SNX. * New: In Hurricane::Entity, add an id counter limit and a memory size limit. The two limits are checked only when a new Entity object is created. This should help avoiding massive memory links. * New: In CRL Core, add a "crlcore.groundName" and a "crlcore.powerName" parameter to specify the name of the ground/power signals to be created if they are missing in a Cell. For Alliance libraries it would be "vss" & "vdd" (default values), but for real technologies, it is often "gnd!" & "vdd!". The Blif parser is modificated to make use of it. * Bug: In AnabaticEngine::unify(), set the resulting unified segment in the center of the GCells common side. Gcells under a segment are found by using the edge that cover the segment axis. When we have a "bend" GCell stack and the axis is wrong, they could be ommited. This was causing deleted segments to be not removed from some Edges, then core dump. * Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::create(), smarter choosing of the reference contact, select the fixed or terminal one instead of always the source one. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::isEnding(), new function to check if a segment going through an Edge is starting/ending in either source or target GCell of the edge (active only when running in channel mode). * New: In Anabatic::Edge::add(), a segment takes part in the occupancy only if it is not ending in either source or target (channel mode only). The occupancy due to terminal is pre-computed in Katana. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), in channel mode, never ripup a segment which is ending in either source or target (we *have* to access this edge to connect to the terminal). * Bug: In Anabatic::GCell::hcut() and vcut(), force the update of the Edge which is on the side that will get splitted by the cut. It's capacity will be reduced to it must be updated. * Change: In Anabatic::GCell::updateGContacts() add a flag to conditionnally update horizontals or verticals only. We may require only a partial update when resizing the GCell in only one direction. This, again, related to the fact that we compute the GCells under a segment thanks to it's axis position, so we need to be very careful when modificating axis. * Change: In Katana::Block::resizeChannels(), only update GContact vertical position. Do not disturb X positions of segments. * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, in channel mode, some Edges can have a zero capacity, but still be reachable if the net has a terminal in either source or target. Look for this case and return a distance of zero instead of "unreachable". This was causing the global routing not to complete in channel mode. For computing the edge distance, makes the vertical edges much more long (10 times) than the horizontal ones as the vertical capacity is very limited. Hard coded for now, should make it a parameter in the future. * Change: In KatanaEngine::annotateGlobalGraph(), decrease the capacity of edges with reserveCapacity for each terminal inside a GCell. Both north and south edges are decreased as we a terminal will block both north and south edges. As a counterpart, the Edge capacity is not decreased when the global router connect to a terminal. * Change: In Katana::RoutingEvent::revalidate(), when in repair stage, do not expand the slack for horizontal segments in channel mode. So they may not overlap the standard cell row. * Bug: In Stratus documentation, do not use the french option in babel, the documentation is in english! * New: In Documentation, added Hurricane/Python tutorial, part for drawing layout.

Corrections in the Dijkstra global routing (ripup) mechanism. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra, the degree of a vertex (the number of neighbors belonging to the same net) was miscalculated. This was leading, in the materialize step to some feed-through vertexes not being broken. Leading in turn to incomplete transformation of the detailed routing. Also in _trackback(), the degree of the first vertex we were backtracking from was not incremented. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), systematically use GCell::breakGoThrough() on both source and target. This is needed when we are in the ripup phase as both source and target can be go-through. This was also leading to incomplete detailed routing transformation. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), ripup one third of the segments instead of thoses exeeding the global length threshold. This way we are sure to desaturate an edge. Needs to be further calibrated. * Change: In Aanabatic::GCell::breakGoThrough(), no longer return NULL. Return existing gcontact if any. Break if it is a go-through and create a new gcontact in last resort. Maybe rename this function. * New: In Anabatic::Configuration, new parameters: - anabatic.edgeHScaling, to adjust the length of the horizontal edges relative to the vertical ones (this is a ratio). - anabatic.globalIterations, set the maximum number of ripup passes of the global router. * New: In CRL/etc/*/kite.conf, added new parameters anabatic.edgeHScaling and anabatic.globalIterations. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, take into account the new edgeHScaling factor. Must be used when the capacity of V-edges differs greatly for H-edges (case of AMS 350nm c35b4 for instance). * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, the historic cost is computed for an edge length of "1". Must be multiplicated by the current edge length to have any measurable effect. This bug is finally explaining why the ripup was producing the same solutions over and over, the historical cost was negligible!

Upgrade of Katana detailed router to support Arlet 6502. * Change: In Hurricane::SharedName, replace the incremental Id by a hash key. This is to ensure better deterministic properties. Between use cases, additional strings may have to be allocated, shitfing the ids. Even if hash can be duplicated, we should be able to ensure that the absolute order in map table should be preserved. Supplemental strings are inserted in a way that keep the previous order. * Change: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/kite.conf, add "katabatic.routingGauge" default parameter value ("sxlib"). * Change: In CRL/etc/common/technology.conf, define minimal spacing for symbolic layers too (added for METAL4 only for now). * Change: In CRL::Histogram, extend support to dynamically sized histograms. Add a text pretty print with table and pseudo-curve. * Change: In Cumulus/plugins/ClockTreePlugin, create blockage under the block corona corners so the global router do not draw wire under them. This was creating deadlock for the detailed router. When the abutment has to be computed, directly use Etesian to do it instead of duplicating the computation in the Python plugin. * New: In Etesian, as Coloquinte seems reluctant to evenly spread the standard cells, we trick it by making them bigger during the placement stage. Furthermore, we do not not uniformely increase the size of the cells but create a "bloating profile" based on cell size, cell name or it's density of terminals. Currently only two profiles are defined, "disabled" which does nothing and "nsxlib" targeted on 4 metal layer technologies (aka AMS 350nm, c35b4). * Bug: In Knik::MatrixVertex, load the default routing gauge using the configuration parameter "katabatic.routingGauge" as the default one may not be the first registered one. * New: In AnabaticEngine::setupNetDatas(), build a dynamic historgram of the nets terminal numbers. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact::Invalidate(), always invalidate the contact cache when topology is invalidated. In case of multiple invalidations, if the first did not invalidate the cache, later one that may need it where not allowed to do so. The end result was correct nonetheless, but it did generate annoying error messages. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTurn::updateTopology(), bad computation of the contact's depth when delta == 2. * Bug: In Anabatic::Gcell::getCapacity(), was always returning the west edge capacity, even for the westermost GCell, should be the east edge in that case. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new measure "distance to terminal". This is the minimal number of segments separating the current one from the nearest RoutingPad. This replace the previous "strong terminal" and "weak terminal" flags. This distance is used by Katana to sort the events, we route the segments *from* the RoutingPads *outward*. The idea being that if we cannot event connect to the RoutingPad, there is no points continuing as thoses segments are the more constraineds. This gives an order close to the simple ascending metals but with better results. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new flag "Unbreakable", disable dogleg making on those segments. mainly intended for local segments directly connecteds to RoutingPads (distance == 0). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, more aggressive reducing of segments. Now the only case where a segment cannot be reduced is when it is one horizontal branch in a HTee or a vertical on a VTee. Check if, when not accounted the source & target VIAs are still connex, if so, allow reducing. * New: In Anabatic::AutoContact, new state flags CntVDogleg & CntHDogleg mainly to prevent making doglegs twice on a turn contact. This is to limit over-fragmentation. If one dogleg doesn't solve the problem, making a second one will make things worse only... * Bug: In Anabatic::Configuration::selectRpcomponent(), we were choosing the component with the *smallest* span instead of the *bigger* one. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, introduce a new flag "GoStraight" to tell that no turn go be made inside those GCells. Mainly used underneath a block corona. * New: In AnabaticEngine::layerAssign(), new GCellRps & RpsInRow to manage GCells with too many terminals. Slacken at least one RoutingPad access when there is more than 8 RoutingPad in the GCell (slacken or change a vertical METAL2 (non-preferred) into a METAL3). * Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV, allow the use of terminal connection in non-preferred direction. That is, vertical METAL2 directly connected to the RoutingPad (then a horizontal METAL2). This alllows for short dogleg without clutering the METAL3 layer (critical for AMS c35b4). Done in NetBuilderHV::doRp_Access(), with a new UseNonPref flag. Perform some other tweaking on METAL1 access topologies, to also minimize METAL3 use. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeNetConstraints(), also compute the distance to RoutingPad for segments. Set the Unbreakable flag, based on the distance and segment length (local, short global or long global). New local function "propagateDistanceFromRp()". * Change: In AnabaticEngine.h, the sorting class for NetData, SparsityOrder, is modificated so net with a degree superior to 10 are sorted first, whatever their sparsity. This is to work in tandem with GlobalRouting. * New: In Katana::TrackSegmentNonPref, introduce a class to manage segment in non-preferred routing direction. Mostly intended for small METAL2 vertical directly connected to RoutingPad. Modifications to manage this new variant all through Katana. * Change: In Katana::GlobalRoute, DigitalDistance honor the GoStraight flag of the GCell. Do not make bend inside thoses GCells. * Change: In KatanaEngine::runGlobalRouter(), high degree nets (>= 10) are routed first and whitout the global routing estimation. There should be few of them so they wont create saturations and we want them as straight as possible. Detour are for long be-points. Set the saerch halo to one GCell in the initial routing stage (before ripup). * Bug: In KatanaEngine & NegociateWindow, call _computeCagedconstraints() inside NegociateWindow::run(), as segments are inserted into tracks only at that point so we cannot make the computation earlier. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator::repackPerpandiculars(), add a flag to select whether to replace the perpandiculars *after* or *before* the current segment. * Change: In Katana::NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), when the segment is fully enclosed inside a global, the longest overlap cost is set to the shortest global hoverhang (before or after). When the cost is for a global, set an infinite cost if the overlapping segment has a RP distance less or equal to 1 (this is an access segment). * Bug: In Katana::PowerRailsPlane::Rail::doLayout(), correct computation of the segments extension cap. * New: In Katana::QueryPowerRails::addToPowerRail(), add support for Pad. * Change: In Katana/PreProcess::protectCagedTerminals(), apply the contraints to any turn connected to the first segment of the RoutingPad so the perpandicular constraints got propagated to the perpandicular segment... * Change: In RoutingEvent, cache the "distance to RP" value. * Change: In RoutingEvent::Key::compare(), sort *first* on distance to RoutingPad, then layer depth. If both distance to RoutingPad is null, then sort on segment length. * Change: In RoutingEvent::_processRepair(), try a repack perpandicular with perpandiculars first (then with perpandicular last, then give up). * Change: In SegmentFsm::bindToTrack() and moveToTrack(), set an axis hint when creating the insertion event. * Change: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), add a step through slacken between minimize and maximum slack (wihch directly end up in unimplemented). * Change: In Session::_addInsertEvent(), add an axis parameter needed when the axis of the segment is not the one of the track (case of wide segments or non-preferred direction). * Bug: In Track::_preDestroy(), bad management of the TrackElement reference count. Destroy the segment only when reaching zero... * Bug: In Track::expandFreeIneterval(), forgotten to manage case when there is a set of overlaping segments at the "end" of the track, the EndIsTrackMax was not set. * Change: In TrackCost::Compare, increase the cost when an overlaping segment is at it's ripup limit. We should try *not* to rip it up if we can. Add a dedicated flag "AtRipupLimit". * Change: In TrackElement, add proxies for isUnbreakable(), new function updateTrackSpan(). * New: In TrackFixedSegment CTOR, when a supply wire of METAL2 or above is found, make the underlying GCells "GoStraight". * New: In TrackElement::canDogleg(GCell*), check for already done perpandicular dogleg on source/target (reject if so).

This was causing deleted segments to be not removed from some Edges, then core dump. * Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::create(), smarter choosing of the reference contact, select the fixed or terminal one instead of always the source one. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::isEnding(), new function to check if a segment going through an Edge is starting/ending in either source or target GCell of the edge (active only when running in channel mode). * New: In Anabatic::Edge::add(), a segment takes part in the occupancy only if it is not ending in either source or target (channel mode only). The occupancy due to terminal is pre-computed in Katana. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), in channel mode, never ripup a segment which is ending in either source or target (we *have* to access this edge to connect to the terminal). * Bug: In Anabatic::GCell::hcut() and vcut(), force the update of the Edge which is on the side that will get splitted by the cut. It's capacity will be reduced to it must be updated. * Change: In Anabatic::GCell::updateGContacts() add a flag to conditionnally update horizontals or verticals only. We may require only a partial update when resizing the GCell in only one direction. This, again, related to the fact that we compute the GCells under a segment thanks to it's axis position, so we need to be very careful when modificating axis. * Change: In Katana::Block::resizeChannels(), only update GContact vertical position. Do not disturb X positions of segments. * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, in channel mode, some Edges can have a zero capacity, but still be reachable if the net has a terminal in either source or target. Look for this case and return a distance of zero instead of "unreachable". This was causing the global routing not to complete in channel mode. For computing the edge distance, makes the vertical edges much more long (10 times) than the horizontal ones as the vertical capacity is very limited. Hard coded for now, should make it a parameter in the future. * Change: In KatanaEngine::annotateGlobalGraph(), decrease the capacity of edges with reserveCapacity for each terminal inside a GCell. Both north and south edges are decreased as we a terminal will block both north and south edges. As a counterpart, the Edge capacity is not decreased when the global router connect to a terminal. * Change: In Katana::RoutingEvent::revalidate(), when in repair stage, do not expand the slack for horizontal segments in channel mode. So they may not overlap the standard cell row. * Bug: In Stratus documentation, do not use the french option in babel, the documentation is in english! * New: In Documentation, added Hurricane/Python tutorial, part for drawing layout.

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Validating channel routing mode (two metals) on SNX. * New: In Hurricane::Entity, add an id counter limit and a memory size limit. The two limits are checked only when a new Entity object is created. This should help avoiding massive memory links. * New: In CRL Core, add a "crlcore.groundName" and a "crlcore.powerName" parameter to specify the name of the ground/power signals to be created if they are missing in a Cell.

Support for density estimation for the global router. * Bug: In Anabatic::Edge::getDistance(), remove the additionnal 0.1 added to horizontal edges. This was for testing before the hScaling parameter was added (to the distance computation in GlobalRoute). * New: Anabatic::Path_Edges, collectio to walkthrough all the edges between two node. More complex than in Knik as we are no longer using a regular grid. We may request the north bound path or south bound path. Collection returned by AnabaticEngine::getEdgesUnderPath(). * New: In Anabatic::NetData, add a new flag GlobalEstimated to tell if the net RMST has been computed (using FLUTE). * New: In Anabatic::PriorityQueue, used to sort Vertexes by increasing distances, add a new criterion to be used in case of distance equality. The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

Clarify semantic of flatten Collections (walkthrough). In the Cell/Instance hierarchy, the "terminal" and "leaf cell" concepts where not clearly defined and partially overlapping. Now, "Terminal" is the refer to the physical hierarchy (layout) and "TerminalNetlist" to the logical hierarchy (netlist). The logical hierarchy can be less deep than the physical one thanks to a Cell dedicated cell flags. Collections related to the physical hierarchy keep their old names, the one related to the logical hierarchy are renamed from "Leaf" to "TerminalNetlist". The name "Leaf" was too ambiguous (leaf for *what* hierarchy). * Change: In Hurricane::Device, set the "TerminalNetlist" flag once and for all. No need set it in all the derived classes again. * New: In Hurricane::MultiCapacitor, added new parameter "dummy" to create dummies around the capacity matrix. * Change: In Hurricane::Cell, remove "Leaf" related methods, replace them by "TerminalNetlist" one, especially Collections. Now we have two clear sets of Collections to walkthough the layout or the netlist. Change the "Terminal" flag into "TerminalNetlist". * Change: In Hurricane::CellCollections, rename "Leaf" into "TerminalNetlist" collections and apply the new semantic to the locators. * Change: In Hurricane::DataBase, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In Hurricane::DeepNet, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In Hurricane::HyperNet, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In Hurricane::Instance, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In Hurricane::Viewer::HierarchyInformations, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In CRL::AllianceFramework, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In CRL::Catalog, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In CRL::ApParser, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In EtesianEngine::AddFeeds, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Bug: In EtesianEngine::resetPlacement, move there the loop over non terminal netlist instances to flag fully placed sub-blocks as terminal for the netlist. Only then remove the feed cells from unplaced instances. Previously, the feed cells where stripped even from already placed instances. * Change: In Katana, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Bug: In Bora::PyDSlicingNode, allow the range parameter to be the Python None object when we do not want to pass one but need to have it as positional parameter. * Change: In Cumulus/clocktree/ClockTree.py, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Added support for 2-Metal block routing in Anabatic & Katana. * New: In AnabaticEngine::invalidateRoutingPads() this method is a temporary workaround for a Hurricane problems. When an instance is moved, the RoutingPads that use it must be moved accordingly, but they are not invalidated so they stay in the wrong QuadTree. New method ::_resizeMatrix() to be called when the associated Cell is resized. * Bug: In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints() and AutoVertical::getConstraints(), the *target* constraints where never merged. * Change: In AutoHorizontal::getCells() and AutoVertical::getGCells(), now return a boolean to tell if it was ok (must not encounter a NULL GCell while progessing from source to target). * New: In Anabatic::Configuration and Anabatic:Session, create new methods: - getDHorizontalLayer() - getDhorizontalDepth() - getDHorizontalWidth() - getDHorizontalPitch() And so on for Vertical and Contact. They supply depth-independant informations about the H/V layers to build the initial detailed routing. The AutoSegment::create() methods have been modificated accordingly. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add two new types "StdCellRow" and "ChannelRow" for implementing 2-Metal blocks. Rename the GCell::setXY() method in GCell::setSouthWestCorner(), move the contents of GCell::updateContactsPosition() into it and suppress it. WARNING: In case of a GCell shrink this may cause problems. But for now we only expand... New method GCell::getNetCount() to count the number of Net going though the GCell. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, add specific support for capacity of 2-Metal routing channels. * Change: In Anabatic::Dijsktra various methods, replace the "gcell->isMatrix()" calls by "not gcell->isAnalog()". Add more check so that the methods pertaining to the analog routing (GRData) are not called in digital mode. * New: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), add support for 2-Metal specific cases. That is, always break in case of vertical pass-through or U-turn. The global routing must always be broken in H-Channel. * New: In Anabatic::GCell & Anabatic::Edge, make use of the Session mechanism to ensure the revalidation. The "::revalidate()" method is then moved as "::materialize()" (overload of Go) and "::_invalidate()" becomes "::invalidate()" * Change: In LoadGlobalRouting, cosmetic rename of SortHkByX in SortHookByX. * New: In GCellTopology, added support for building 2-Metal topologies. * ForkStack is now an object attribute as many methods do need it. * To push segments/hook on the stack, a new method "push()" is available. Perform NULL and fromHook checking. Can also setup _southWestContact or _northEastContact if it is the "from" edge. * N/S/E/W edges are now vector as in digital channel mode there can be more than one. * Added build topological build methods: - doRp_2m_Access() RoutingPad stem access. - _do_2m_1G_1M1() North or south access. - _do_2m_2G_1M1() North AND south access. - _do_2m_xG() H-Channel routing. * New: In Anabatic::Matrix, new ::resize() function, as Cell can be resizeds. * New: In Anabatic::Vertex, new static method ::getValueString() for a friendly text rendering. * New: In Katana::DigitalDistance, support for channel routing. * Change: In KatanaEngine::digitalSetup() and KatanaEngine::runGlobalrouter(), for channel routing, calls to setupPowerRails() and protectRoutingPads() must be called after the core block has been fully dimensionned. ::runGlobalrouter() contains the code tasked with the grid creation and channel sizing. * New: In KatanaEngine: Added support for core block, for 2-Metal routing. May be expanded for over-the-cell routing in the future. Added methods : - isDigitalMode() - isAnalogMode() - isMixedMode() - isChannelMode() - getBlock() / addBlock() - setupChannelMode() - createChannel() * New: In Katana, new class Block to manage core blocks and perform channel routing. * New: In Katana::Session, new convenience method "isOpen()".

Support for density estimation for the global router. * Bug: In Anabatic::Edge::getDistance(), remove the additionnal 0.1 added to horizontal edges.

More complex than in Knik as we are no longer using a regular grid. We may request the north bound path or south bound path. Collection returned by AnabaticEngine::getEdgesUnderPath(). * New: In Anabatic::NetData, add a new flag GlobalEstimated to tell if the net RMST has been computed (using FLUTE). * New: In Anabatic::PriorityQueue, used to sort Vertexes by increasing distances, add a new criterion to be used in case of distance equality. The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Added support for 2-Metal block routing in Anabatic & Katana. * New: In AnabaticEngine::invalidateRoutingPads() this method is a temporary workaround for a Hurricane problems. When an instance is moved, the RoutingPads that use it must be moved accordingly, but they are not invalidated so they stay in the wrong QuadTree. New method ::_resizeMatrix() to be called when the associated Cell is resized. * Bug: In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints() and AutoVertical::getConstraints(), the *target* constraints where never merged. * Change: In AutoHorizontal::getCells() and AutoVertical::getGCells(), now return a boolean to tell if it was ok (must not encounter a NULL GCell while progessing from source to target). * New: In Anabatic::Configuration and Anabatic:Session, create new methods: - getDHorizontalLayer() - getDhorizontalDepth() - getDHorizontalWidth() - getDHorizontalPitch() And so on for Vertical and Contact. They supply depth-independant informations about the H/V layers to build the initial detailed routing. The AutoSegment::create() methods have been modificated accordingly. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add two new types "StdCellRow" and "ChannelRow" for implementing 2-Metal blocks. Rename the GCell::setXY() method in GCell::setSouthWestCorner(), move the contents of GCell::updateContactsPosition() into it and suppress it. WARNING: In case of a GCell shrink this may cause problems. But for now we only expand... New method GCell::getNetCount() to count the number of Net going though the GCell. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, add specific support for capacity of 2-Metal routing channels. * Change: In Anabatic::Dijsktra various methods, replace the "gcell->isMatrix()" calls by "not gcell->isAnalog()". Add more check so that the methods pertaining to the analog routing (GRData) are not called in digital mode. * New: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), add support for 2-Metal specific cases. That is, always break in case of vertical pass-through or U-turn. The global routing must always be broken in H-Channel. * New: In Anabatic::GCell & Anabatic::Edge, make use of the Session mechanism to ensure the revalidation. The "::revalidate()" method is then moved as "::materialize()" (overload of Go) and "::_invalidate()" becomes "::invalidate()" * Change: In LoadGlobalRouting, cosmetic rename of SortHkByX in SortHookByX. * New: In GCellTopology, added support for building 2-Metal topologies. * ForkStack is now an object attribute as many methods do need it. * To push segments/hook on the stack, a new method "push()" is available. Perform NULL and fromHook checking. Can also setup _southWestContact or _northEastContact if it is the "from" edge. * N/S/E/W edges are now vector as in digital channel mode there can be more than one. * Added build topological build methods: - doRp_2m_Access() RoutingPad stem access. - _do_2m_1G_1M1() North or south access. - _do_2m_2G_1M1() North AND south access. - _do_2m_xG() H-Channel routing. * New: In Anabatic::Matrix, new ::resize() function, as Cell can be resizeds. * New: In Anabatic::Vertex, new static method ::getValueString() for a friendly text rendering. * New: In Katana::DigitalDistance, support for channel routing. * Change: In KatanaEngine::digitalSetup() and KatanaEngine::runGlobalrouter(), for channel routing, calls to setupPowerRails() and protectRoutingPads() must be called after the core block has been fully dimensionned. ::runGlobalrouter() contains the code tasked with the grid creation and channel sizing. * New: In KatanaEngine: Added support for core block, for 2-Metal routing. May be expanded for over-the-cell routing in the future. Added methods : - isDigitalMode() - isAnalogMode() - isMixedMode() - isChannelMode() - getBlock() / addBlock() - setupChannelMode() - createChannel() * New: In Katana, new class Block to manage core blocks and perform channel routing. * New: In Katana::Session, new convenience method "isOpen()".

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management.

Added core2chip support for Phenitec80. This commit degrades the run success rate of ARMv2a to 87% (40 iters). * New: In CRLcore/etc/.../kite.conf, add configuration parameters: katana.termSatReservedlocal katana.termSatthreshold for the new edge capacity computation system. * New: In CRLcore/etc/symbolic/phenitec06/, add support for N. Shimizu small I/O pads (supplied in phlib80). Tune various parameters of Anabatic/Katana to increase routing success. * Change: In CRLcore/alliance/ap/ApParser, make Pin external components, so RoutingPad will be build upon in global routing. Do not complain when a I/O pad has a physical instance that did not exists in the netlist. Just create it (appeared in phlib80). When no netlist instance exists in a pad, the pad Cell is still considered as terminal. * New: In Etesian::BloatCells, new profile named "3metals" better suited for two routing metals technologies (i.e. Phenitec). * New: In Anabatic::RawGCellsUnder, new CTOR which take only source & target points instead of a segment. Needed to manage wide segment for which the axis to consider is not that of the segment (one axis for each track it intersect). * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add a RoutingPad count attribute, for Edge reservation computation. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeEdgeCapacities(), instead of decreasing all edges of a fixed amount (hTrackReservedLocal), guess the GCell cluttering from the number of RoutingPads that it contains. For non-saturated GCells, the four edges are decreased by the number of RoutingPads. We use the maximum from the two neigboring GCells. The hTrackReservedLocal parameter is now used only as a *maximum* that the edge reservation can reach. If a GCell is saturated (more than 8 RoutingPads, the saturation is propagated horizontally to 2 neigboring GCells). * Change: In AutoContactTerminal::getNativeConstraintBox(), use a more flexible gauge name matching for terminal vertical extensions correction. Namely, match all "msxlib*" kind of gauges. * Change: In AutoSegment::setAxis(), add the ability to force the axis position, even if it is a non-canonical segment. Maybe needed in the initialisation steo, before the first canonisation is performed. * New: In NetBuilder, added new methods _do_1G_1PinM1() and _do_2G_1PinM1(), to manage coronas for Phenitec designs. To avoid various side effects from segments being too close from the north / east side of the routing area, make those segments fixeds. * Change: In KatanaEngine::annotateGlobalGraph(), the management of wide wires was wrong. The axis to use to find the underlying GCells is the one of the track, not of the segment. This was creating bad edge capacity computation under the power ring of a block and subsequently routing failures. * New: In Kanata::Manipulator, added method reprocessParallels(), not used though, but keep it anyway, might be of use later... * New: In Kanata::Manipulator, added method avoidBlockage() for terminal METAL2 in non-preferred direction, restrict the terminal and turn constraint box at the current position of the perpandicular, so it doesn't create a deadlock in METAL2. * Change: In SegmentFsm::conflictSolveByPlaceds(), if we cannot break using the whole overlap, try the first atomic overlap. * New: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), manage conflict between a non-prefered segment and a blockage, this when to call avoidBlockage()... * New: In Katana::Configuration, management of the new edge computation parameters: katana.termSatReservedlocal katana.termSatthreshold * New: In Cumulus/plugins/Core2Chip, support for Phenitec I/O pads.

Added core2chip support for Phenitec80. This commit degrades the run success rate of ARMv2a to 87% (40 iters). * New: In CRLcore/etc/.../kite.conf, add configuration parameters: katana.termSatReservedlocal katana.termSatthreshold for the new edge capacity computation system. * New: In CRLcore/etc/symbolic/phenitec06/, add support for N. Shimizu small I/O pads (supplied in phlib80). Tune various parameters of Anabatic/Katana to increase routing success. * Change: In CRLcore/alliance/ap/ApParser, make Pin external components, so RoutingPad will be build upon in global routing. Do not complain when a I/O pad has a physical instance that did not exists in the netlist. Just create it (appeared in phlib80). When no netlist instance exists in a pad, the pad Cell is still considered as terminal. * New: In Etesian::BloatCells, new profile named "3metals" better suited for two routing metals technologies (i.e. Phenitec). * New: In Anabatic::RawGCellsUnder, new CTOR which take only source & target points instead of a segment. Needed to manage wide segment for which the axis to consider is not that of the segment (one axis for each track it intersect). * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add a RoutingPad count attribute, for Edge reservation computation. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeEdgeCapacities(), instead of decreasing all edges of a fixed amount (hTrackReservedLocal), guess the GCell cluttering from the number of RoutingPads that it contains. For non-saturated GCells, the four edges are decreased by the number of RoutingPads. We use the maximum from the two neigboring GCells. The hTrackReservedLocal parameter is now used only as a *maximum* that the edge reservation can reach. If a GCell is saturated (more than 8 RoutingPads, the saturation is propagated horizontally to 2 neigboring GCells). * Change: In AutoContactTerminal::getNativeConstraintBox(), use a more flexible gauge name matching for terminal vertical extensions correction. Namely, match all "msxlib*" kind of gauges. * Change: In AutoSegment::setAxis(), add the ability to force the axis position, even if it is a non-canonical segment. Maybe needed in the initialisation steo, before the first canonisation is performed. * New: In NetBuilder, added new methods _do_1G_1PinM1() and _do_2G_1PinM1(), to manage coronas for Phenitec designs. To avoid various side effects from segments being too close from the north / east side of the routing area, make those segments fixeds. * Change: In KatanaEngine::annotateGlobalGraph(), the management of wide wires was wrong. The axis to use to find the underlying GCells is the one of the track, not of the segment. This was creating bad edge capacity computation under the power ring of a block and subsequently routing failures. * New: In Kanata::Manipulator, added method reprocessParallels(), not used though, but keep it anyway, might be of use later... * New: In Kanata::Manipulator, added method avoidBlockage() for terminal METAL2 in non-preferred direction, restrict the terminal and turn constraint box at the current position of the perpandicular, so it doesn't create a deadlock in METAL2. * Change: In SegmentFsm::conflictSolveByPlaceds(), if we cannot break using the whole overlap, try the first atomic overlap. * New: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), manage conflict between a non-prefered segment and a blockage, this when to call avoidBlockage()... * New: In Katana::Configuration, management of the new edge computation parameters: katana.termSatReservedlocal katana.termSatthreshold * New: In Cumulus/plugins/Core2Chip, support for Phenitec I/O pads.

Capacity managment by layer in Edges & GCells (plus fixes). * New: In Anabatic::EdgeCapacity, dedicated object to manage the capacities of an edge by layer. This needed now because with real technologies layers capacities differs (unlike with symbolic technologies). This object is separated to be shared between Edges with identical characteristics (direction+interval). Deletion is automatic and done through refcounting. All the already allocateds EdgeCapacity are kept into a set in the AnabaticEngine (key is (direction,interval)). * New: In Anabatic::Edge, capacities are stored in a shared EdgeCapacity object. The total capacity can be annotated (i.e. decreased). EdgeCapacity attribute is created during the materialize() call. The capacities are computed at this time. The incCapacity() function is renamed in reserveCapacity(). * New: In Anabatic::AnabaticEngine, added attribute _edgeCapacitiesLut to store the shared EdgeCapacity. Lookup/Creation of an EdgeCapacity is done through _createCapacity(). * Change: In Anabatic::Constants, rename Flags::IllimitedCapacity into Flags::InfiniteCapacity. Add Flags::NullCapacity (both for Edges). * Change: In Anabatic::GCell, implement a by depth (for layer) getCapacity(). This modification did expose a bug in the density calculation : per depth density where divided by the complete density instead of the density's depth. This was leading to greatly underestimated densities. Thoses underestimations where preventing Dijkstra and layer assignement to manage congestion correctly (in fact, it was acting as if there never was congestion). Also avoid a divide by zero (thus -NAN showing in densities). * Change: In Anabatic::GCell, rename setEdgeOccupancy() into the more accurate forceEdgesCapacities(). Note for Eric: only the first Edge on each side has it's capacity forced. What if there's more than one Edge ?

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

More configuration parameters for P&R Conductor, for experimenting. * Change: In Hurricane::Viewer::ExceptionWidget & CRL/python/helpers/io.py, downscale icons for non-HiDPI screen. * Change: In CRL/etc/common/display.py, change the display threshold of METAL1 layer so it do not appear at high scaling. * New: In Etesian, activate the "setFixedAbHeight()" feature and export it to Python. Allows to increase the space margin at constant height. To be used by the P&R conductor. * Change: In Unicorn/cgt.py, when running a script, insert the current working directory at head of the sys.path, not at the end. So installed modules do not shadow local one. * New: In Anabatic::Edge, new accessor "getRawcapacity()" to know the full capacity of the edge, that is, the real maximum number of tracks that can go through the associated side. * Change: In Katana/BloatProfile/Slice::tagsOverloaded(), bloating policy change, now bloat all the instances under the GCell, not only the first one. * Change: In KatanaEngine::runGlobalRouter(), restore the search halo growth policy to expanding of 3 GCells every 3 iterations. New metrics displayed, the edge wire length length overload. * Change: In cumulus/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, now accepts the following configuration parameters: - "anabatic.globalIterationsEstimate", maximum number of global iterations during the bloating computation passes. - "conductor.useFixedAbHeight", tells wether the additionnal blank space must be added so the aspect ratio is kept or the height is kept (and the block become wider). Disable the display of "rubber" to unclutter a little the view.

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method).

This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable.

Corrections in the Dijkstra global routing (ripup) mechanism. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra, the degree of a vertex (the number of neighbors belonging to the same net) was miscalculated. This was leading, in the materialize step to some feed-through vertexes not being broken. Leading in turn to incomplete transformation of the detailed routing. Also in _trackback(), the degree of the first vertex we were backtracking from was not incremented. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), systematically use GCell::breakGoThrough() on both source and target. This is needed when we are in the ripup phase as both source and target can be go-through. This was also leading to incomplete detailed routing transformation. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), ripup one third of the segments instead of thoses exeeding the global length threshold. This way we are sure to desaturate an edge. Needs to be further calibrated. * Change: In Aanabatic::GCell::breakGoThrough(), no longer return NULL. Return existing gcontact if any. Break if it is a go-through and create a new gcontact in last resort. Maybe rename this function. * New: In Anabatic::Configuration, new parameters: - anabatic.edgeHScaling, to adjust the length of the horizontal edges relative to the vertical ones (this is a ratio). - anabatic.globalIterations, set the maximum number of ripup passes of the global router. * New: In CRL/etc/*/kite.conf, added new parameters anabatic.edgeHScaling and anabatic.globalIterations. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, take into account the new edgeHScaling factor. Must be used when the capacity of V-edges differs greatly for H-edges (case of AMS 350nm c35b4 for instance). * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, the historic cost is computed for an edge length of "1". Must be multiplicated by the current edge length to have any measurable effect. This bug is finally explaining why the ripup was producing the same solutions over and over, the historical cost was negligible!

Added support for 2-Metal block routing in Anabatic & Katana. * New: In AnabaticEngine::invalidateRoutingPads() this method is a temporary workaround for a Hurricane problems. When an instance is moved, the RoutingPads that use it must be moved accordingly, but they are not invalidated so they stay in the wrong QuadTree. New method ::_resizeMatrix() to be called when the associated Cell is resized. * Bug: In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints() and AutoVertical::getConstraints(), the *target* constraints where never merged. * Change: In AutoHorizontal::getCells() and AutoVertical::getGCells(), now return a boolean to tell if it was ok (must not encounter a NULL GCell while progessing from source to target). * New: In Anabatic::Configuration and Anabatic:Session, create new methods: - getDHorizontalLayer() - getDhorizontalDepth() - getDHorizontalWidth() - getDHorizontalPitch() And so on for Vertical and Contact. They supply depth-independant informations about the H/V layers to build the initial detailed routing. The AutoSegment::create() methods have been modificated accordingly. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add two new types "StdCellRow" and "ChannelRow" for implementing 2-Metal blocks. Rename the GCell::setXY() method in GCell::setSouthWestCorner(), move the contents of GCell::updateContactsPosition() into it and suppress it. WARNING: In case of a GCell shrink this may cause problems. But for now we only expand... New method GCell::getNetCount() to count the number of Net going though the GCell. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, add specific support for capacity of 2-Metal routing channels. * Change: In Anabatic::Dijsktra various methods, replace the "gcell->isMatrix()" calls by "not gcell->isAnalog()". Add more check so that the methods pertaining to the analog routing (GRData) are not called in digital mode. * New: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), add support for 2-Metal specific cases. That is, always break in case of vertical pass-through or U-turn. The global routing must always be broken in H-Channel. * New: In Anabatic::GCell & Anabatic::Edge, make use of the Session mechanism to ensure the revalidation. The "::revalidate()" method is then moved as "::materialize()" (overload of Go) and "::_invalidate()" becomes "::invalidate()" * Change: In LoadGlobalRouting, cosmetic rename of SortHkByX in SortHookByX. * New: In GCellTopology, added support for building 2-Metal topologies. * ForkStack is now an object attribute as many methods do need it. * To push segments/hook on the stack, a new method "push()" is available. Perform NULL and fromHook checking. Can also setup _southWestContact or _northEastContact if it is the "from" edge. * N/S/E/W edges are now vector as in digital channel mode there can be more than one. * Added build topological build methods: - doRp_2m_Access() RoutingPad stem access. - _do_2m_1G_1M1() North or south access. - _do_2m_2G_1M1() North AND south access. - _do_2m_xG() H-Channel routing. * New: In Anabatic::Matrix, new ::resize() function, as Cell can be resizeds. * New: In Anabatic::Vertex, new static method ::getValueString() for a friendly text rendering. * New: In Katana::DigitalDistance, support for channel routing. * Change: In KatanaEngine::digitalSetup() and KatanaEngine::runGlobalrouter(), for channel routing, calls to setupPowerRails() and protectRoutingPads() must be called after the core block has been fully dimensionned. ::runGlobalrouter() contains the code tasked with the grid creation and channel sizing. * New: In KatanaEngine: Added support for core block, for 2-Metal routing. May be expanded for over-the-cell routing in the future. Added methods : - isDigitalMode() - isAnalogMode() - isMixedMode() - isChannelMode() - getBlock() / addBlock() - setupChannelMode() - createChannel() * New: In Katana, new class Block to manage core blocks and perform channel routing. * New: In Katana::Session, new convenience method "isOpen()".

if (isChannelMode())
Validating channel routing mode (two metals) on SNX. * New: In Hurricane::Entity, add an id counter limit and a memory size limit. The two limits are checked only when a new Entity object is created. This should help avoiding massive memory links. * New: In CRL Core, add a "crlcore.groundName" and a "crlcore.powerName" parameter to specify the name of the ground/power signals to be created if they are missing in a Cell. For Alliance libraries it would be "vss" & "vdd" (default values), but for real technologies, it is often "gnd!" & "vdd!". The Blif parser is modificated to make use of it. * Bug: In AnabaticEngine::unify(), set the resulting unified segment in the center of the GCells common side. Gcells under a segment are found by using the edge that cover the segment axis. When we have a "bend" GCell stack and the axis is wrong, they could be ommited. This was causing deleted segments to be not removed from some Edges, then core dump. * Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::create(), smarter choosing of the reference contact, select the fixed or terminal one instead of always the source one. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::isEnding(), new function to check if a segment going through an Edge is starting/ending in either source or target GCell of the edge (active only when running in channel mode). * New: In Anabatic::Edge::add(), a segment takes part in the occupancy only if it is not ending in either source or target (channel mode only). The occupancy due to terminal is pre-computed in Katana. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), in channel mode, never ripup a segment which is ending in either source or target (we *have* to access this edge to connect to the terminal). * Bug: In Anabatic::GCell::hcut() and vcut(), force the update of the Edge which is on the side that will get splitted by the cut. It's capacity will be reduced to it must be updated. * Change: In Anabatic::GCell::updateGContacts() add a flag to conditionnally update horizontals or verticals only. We may require only a partial update when resizing the GCell in only one direction. This, again, related to the fact that we compute the GCells under a segment thanks to it's axis position, so we need to be very careful when modificating axis. * Change: In Katana::Block::resizeChannels(), only update GContact vertical position. Do not disturb X positions of segments. * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, in channel mode, some Edges can have a zero capacity, but still be reachable if the net has a terminal in either source or target. Look for this case and return a distance of zero instead of "unreachable". This was causing the global routing not to complete in channel mode. For computing the edge distance, makes the vertical edges much more long (10 times) than the horizontal ones as the vertical capacity is very limited. Hard coded for now, should make it a parameter in the future. * Change: In KatanaEngine::annotateGlobalGraph(), decrease the capacity of edges with reserveCapacity for each terminal inside a GCell. Both north and south edges are decreased as we a terminal will block both north and south edges. As a counterpart, the Edge capacity is not decreased when the global router connect to a terminal. * Change: In Katana::RoutingEvent::revalidate(), when in repair stage, do not expand the slack for horizontal segments in channel mode. So they may not overlap the standard cell row. * Bug: In Stratus documentation, do not use the french option in babel, the documentation is in english! * New: In Documentation, added Hurricane/Python tutorial, part for drawing layout.

dijkstra->setSearchAreaHalo( Session::getSliceHeight()*10 );
Upgrade of Katana detailed router to support Arlet 6502. * Change: In Hurricane::SharedName, replace the incremental Id by a hash key. This is to ensure better deterministic properties. Between use cases, additional strings may have to be allocated, shitfing the ids. Even if hash can be duplicated, we should be able to ensure that the absolute order in map table should be preserved. Supplemental strings are inserted in a way that keep the previous order. * Change: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/kite.conf, add "katabatic.routingGauge" default parameter value ("sxlib"). * Change: In CRL/etc/common/technology.conf, define minimal spacing for symbolic layers too (added for METAL4 only for now). * Change: In CRL::Histogram, extend support to dynamically sized histograms. Add a text pretty print with table and pseudo-curve. * Change: In Cumulus/plugins/ClockTreePlugin, create blockage under the block corona corners so the global router do not draw wire under them. This was creating deadlock for the detailed router. When the abutment has to be computed, directly use Etesian to do it instead of duplicating the computation in the Python plugin. * New: In Etesian, as Coloquinte seems reluctant to evenly spread the standard cells, we trick it by making them bigger during the placement stage. Furthermore, we do not not uniformely increase the size of the cells but create a "bloating profile" based on cell size, cell name or it's density of terminals. Currently only two profiles are defined, "disabled" which does nothing and "nsxlib" targeted on 4 metal layer technologies (aka AMS 350nm, c35b4). * Bug: In Knik::MatrixVertex, load the default routing gauge using the configuration parameter "katabatic.routingGauge" as the default one may not be the first registered one. * New: In AnabaticEngine::setupNetDatas(), build a dynamic historgram of the nets terminal numbers. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact::Invalidate(), always invalidate the contact cache when topology is invalidated. In case of multiple invalidations, if the first did not invalidate the cache, later one that may need it where not allowed to do so. The end result was correct nonetheless, but it did generate annoying error messages. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTurn::updateTopology(), bad computation of the contact's depth when delta == 2. * Bug: In Anabatic::Gcell::getCapacity(), was always returning the west edge capacity, even for the westermost GCell, should be the east edge in that case. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new measure "distance to terminal". This is the minimal number of segments separating the current one from the nearest RoutingPad. This replace the previous "strong terminal" and "weak terminal" flags. This distance is used by Katana to sort the events, we route the segments *from* the RoutingPads *outward*. The idea being that if we cannot event connect to the RoutingPad, there is no points continuing as thoses segments are the more constraineds. This gives an order close to the simple ascending metals but with better results. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new flag "Unbreakable", disable dogleg making on those segments. mainly intended for local segments directly connecteds to RoutingPads (distance == 0). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, more aggressive reducing of segments. Now the only case where a segment cannot be reduced is when it is one horizontal branch in a HTee or a vertical on a VTee. Check if, when not accounted the source & target VIAs are still connex, if so, allow reducing. * New: In Anabatic::AutoContact, new state flags CntVDogleg & CntHDogleg mainly to prevent making doglegs twice on a turn contact. This is to limit over-fragmentation. If one dogleg doesn't solve the problem, making a second one will make things worse only... * Bug: In Anabatic::Configuration::selectRpcomponent(), we were choosing the component with the *smallest* span instead of the *bigger* one. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, introduce a new flag "GoStraight" to tell that no turn go be made inside those GCells. Mainly used underneath a block corona. * New: In AnabaticEngine::layerAssign(), new GCellRps & RpsInRow to manage GCells with too many terminals. Slacken at least one RoutingPad access when there is more than 8 RoutingPad in the GCell (slacken or change a vertical METAL2 (non-preferred) into a METAL3). * Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV, allow the use of terminal connection in non-preferred direction. That is, vertical METAL2 directly connected to the RoutingPad (then a horizontal METAL2). This alllows for short dogleg without clutering the METAL3 layer (critical for AMS c35b4). Done in NetBuilderHV::doRp_Access(), with a new UseNonPref flag. Perform some other tweaking on METAL1 access topologies, to also minimize METAL3 use. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeNetConstraints(), also compute the distance to RoutingPad for segments. Set the Unbreakable flag, based on the distance and segment length (local, short global or long global). New local function "propagateDistanceFromRp()". * Change: In AnabaticEngine.h, the sorting class for NetData, SparsityOrder, is modificated so net with a degree superior to 10 are sorted first, whatever their sparsity. This is to work in tandem with GlobalRouting. * New: In Katana::TrackSegmentNonPref, introduce a class to manage segment in non-preferred routing direction. Mostly intended for small METAL2 vertical directly connected to RoutingPad. Modifications to manage this new variant all through Katana. * Change: In Katana::GlobalRoute, DigitalDistance honor the GoStraight flag of the GCell. Do not make bend inside thoses GCells. * Change: In KatanaEngine::runGlobalRouter(), high degree nets (>= 10) are routed first and whitout the global routing estimation. There should be few of them so they wont create saturations and we want them as straight as possible. Detour are for long be-points. Set the saerch halo to one GCell in the initial routing stage (before ripup). * Bug: In KatanaEngine & NegociateWindow, call _computeCagedconstraints() inside NegociateWindow::run(), as segments are inserted into tracks only at that point so we cannot make the computation earlier. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator::repackPerpandiculars(), add a flag to select whether to replace the perpandiculars *after* or *before* the current segment. * Change: In Katana::NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), when the segment is fully enclosed inside a global, the longest overlap cost is set to the shortest global hoverhang (before or after). When the cost is for a global, set an infinite cost if the overlapping segment has a RP distance less or equal to 1 (this is an access segment). * Bug: In Katana::PowerRailsPlane::Rail::doLayout(), correct computation of the segments extension cap. * New: In Katana::QueryPowerRails::addToPowerRail(), add support for Pad. * Change: In Katana/PreProcess::protectCagedTerminals(), apply the contraints to any turn connected to the first segment of the RoutingPad so the perpandicular constraints got propagated to the perpandicular segment... * Change: In RoutingEvent, cache the "distance to RP" value. * Change: In RoutingEvent::Key::compare(), sort *first* on distance to RoutingPad, then layer depth. If both distance to RoutingPad is null, then sort on segment length. * Change: In RoutingEvent::_processRepair(), try a repack perpandicular with perpandiculars first (then with perpandicular last, then give up). * Change: In SegmentFsm::bindToTrack() and moveToTrack(), set an axis hint when creating the insertion event. * Change: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), add a step through slacken between minimize and maximum slack (wihch directly end up in unimplemented). * Change: In Session::_addInsertEvent(), add an axis parameter needed when the axis of the segment is not the one of the track (case of wide segments or non-preferred direction). * Bug: In Track::_preDestroy(), bad management of the TrackElement reference count. Destroy the segment only when reaching zero... * Bug: In Track::expandFreeIneterval(), forgotten to manage case when there is a set of overlaping segments at the "end" of the track, the EndIsTrackMax was not set. * Change: In TrackCost::Compare, increase the cost when an overlaping segment is at it's ripup limit. We should try *not* to rip it up if we can. Add a dedicated flag "AtRipupLimit". * Change: In TrackElement, add proxies for isUnbreakable(), new function updateTrackSpan(). * New: In TrackFixedSegment CTOR, when a supply wire of METAL2 or above is found, make the underlying GCells "GoStraight". * New: In TrackElement::canDogleg(GCell*), check for already done perpandicular dogleg on source/target (reject if so).

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

dijkstra->setSearchAreaHalo( Session::getSliceHeight()*getSearchHalo() );
Added support for 2-Metal block routing in Anabatic & Katana. * New: In AnabaticEngine::invalidateRoutingPads() this method is a temporary workaround for a Hurricane problems. When an instance is moved, the RoutingPads that use it must be moved accordingly, but they are not invalidated so they stay in the wrong QuadTree. New method ::_resizeMatrix() to be called when the associated Cell is resized. * Bug: In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints() and AutoVertical::getConstraints(), the *target* constraints where never merged. * Change: In AutoHorizontal::getCells() and AutoVertical::getGCells(), now return a boolean to tell if it was ok (must not encounter a NULL GCell while progessing from source to target). * New: In Anabatic::Configuration and Anabatic:Session, create new methods: - getDHorizontalLayer() - getDhorizontalDepth() - getDHorizontalWidth() - getDHorizontalPitch() And so on for Vertical and Contact. They supply depth-independant informations about the H/V layers to build the initial detailed routing. The AutoSegment::create() methods have been modificated accordingly. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add two new types "StdCellRow" and "ChannelRow" for implementing 2-Metal blocks. Rename the GCell::setXY() method in GCell::setSouthWestCorner(), move the contents of GCell::updateContactsPosition() into it and suppress it. WARNING: In case of a GCell shrink this may cause problems. But for now we only expand... New method GCell::getNetCount() to count the number of Net going though the GCell. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, add specific support for capacity of 2-Metal routing channels. * Change: In Anabatic::Dijsktra various methods, replace the "gcell->isMatrix()" calls by "not gcell->isAnalog()". Add more check so that the methods pertaining to the analog routing (GRData) are not called in digital mode. * New: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), add support for 2-Metal specific cases. That is, always break in case of vertical pass-through or U-turn. The global routing must always be broken in H-Channel. * New: In Anabatic::GCell & Anabatic::Edge, make use of the Session mechanism to ensure the revalidation. The "::revalidate()" method is then moved as "::materialize()" (overload of Go) and "::_invalidate()" becomes "::invalidate()" * Change: In LoadGlobalRouting, cosmetic rename of SortHkByX in SortHookByX. * New: In GCellTopology, added support for building 2-Metal topologies. * ForkStack is now an object attribute as many methods do need it. * To push segments/hook on the stack, a new method "push()" is available. Perform NULL and fromHook checking. Can also setup _southWestContact or _northEastContact if it is the "from" edge. * N/S/E/W edges are now vector as in digital channel mode there can be more than one. * Added build topological build methods: - doRp_2m_Access() RoutingPad stem access. - _do_2m_1G_1M1() North or south access. - _do_2m_2G_1M1() North AND south access. - _do_2m_xG() H-Channel routing. * New: In Anabatic::Matrix, new ::resize() function, as Cell can be resizeds. * New: In Anabatic::Vertex, new static method ::getValueString() for a friendly text rendering. * New: In Katana::DigitalDistance, support for channel routing. * Change: In KatanaEngine::digitalSetup() and KatanaEngine::runGlobalrouter(), for channel routing, calls to setupPowerRails() and protectRoutingPads() must be called after the core block has been fully dimensionned. ::runGlobalrouter() contains the code tasked with the grid creation and channel sizing. * New: In KatanaEngine: Added support for core block, for 2-Metal routing. May be expanded for over-the-cell routing in the future. Added methods : - isDigitalMode() - isAnalogMode() - isMixedMode() - isChannelMode() - getBlock() / addBlock() - setupChannelMode() - createChannel() * New: In Katana, new class Block to manage core blocks and perform channel routing. * New: In Katana::Session, new convenience method "isOpen()".

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Support for density estimation for the global router. * Bug: In Anabatic::Edge::getDistance(), remove the additionnal 0.1 added to horizontal edges. This was for testing before the hScaling parameter was added (to the distance computation in GlobalRoute). * New: Anabatic::Path_Edges, collectio to walkthrough all the edges between two node.

Collection returned by AnabaticEngine::getEdgesUnderPath(). * New: In Anabatic::NetData, add a new flag GlobalEstimated to tell if the net RMST has been computed (using FLUTE). * New: In Anabatic::PriorityQueue, used to sort Vertexes by increasing distances, add a new criterion to be used in case of distance equality. The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

Upgrade of Katana detailed router to support Arlet 6502. * Change: In Hurricane::SharedName, replace the incremental Id by a hash key. This is to ensure better deterministic properties. Between use cases, additional strings may have to be allocated, shitfing the ids. Even if hash can be duplicated, we should be able to ensure that the absolute order in map table should be preserved. Supplemental strings are inserted in a way that keep the previous order. * Change: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/kite.conf, add "katabatic.routingGauge" default parameter value ("sxlib"). * Change: In CRL/etc/common/technology.conf, define minimal spacing for symbolic layers too (added for METAL4 only for now). * Change: In CRL::Histogram, extend support to dynamically sized histograms. Add a text pretty print with table and pseudo-curve. * Change: In Cumulus/plugins/ClockTreePlugin, create blockage under the block corona corners so the global router do not draw wire under them. This was creating deadlock for the detailed router. When the abutment has to be computed, directly use Etesian to do it instead of duplicating the computation in the Python plugin. * New: In Etesian, as Coloquinte seems reluctant to evenly spread the standard cells, we trick it by making them bigger during the placement stage. Furthermore, we do not not uniformely increase the size of the cells but create a "bloating profile" based on cell size, cell name or it's density of terminals. Currently only two profiles are defined, "disabled" which does nothing and "nsxlib" targeted on 4 metal layer technologies (aka AMS 350nm, c35b4). * Bug: In Knik::MatrixVertex, load the default routing gauge using the configuration parameter "katabatic.routingGauge" as the default one may not be the first registered one. * New: In AnabaticEngine::setupNetDatas(), build a dynamic historgram of the nets terminal numbers. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact::Invalidate(), always invalidate the contact cache when topology is invalidated. In case of multiple invalidations, if the first did not invalidate the cache, later one that may need it where not allowed to do so. The end result was correct nonetheless, but it did generate annoying error messages. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTurn::updateTopology(), bad computation of the contact's depth when delta == 2. * Bug: In Anabatic::Gcell::getCapacity(), was always returning the west edge capacity, even for the westermost GCell, should be the east edge in that case. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new measure "distance to terminal". This is the minimal number of segments separating the current one from the nearest RoutingPad. This replace the previous "strong terminal" and "weak terminal" flags. This distance is used by Katana to sort the events, we route the segments *from* the RoutingPads *outward*. The idea being that if we cannot event connect to the RoutingPad, there is no points continuing as thoses segments are the more constraineds. This gives an order close to the simple ascending metals but with better results. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new flag "Unbreakable", disable dogleg making on those segments. mainly intended for local segments directly connecteds to RoutingPads (distance == 0). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, more aggressive reducing of segments. Now the only case where a segment cannot be reduced is when it is one horizontal branch in a HTee or a vertical on a VTee. Check if, when not accounted the source & target VIAs are still connex, if so, allow reducing. * New: In Anabatic::AutoContact, new state flags CntVDogleg & CntHDogleg mainly to prevent making doglegs twice on a turn contact. This is to limit over-fragmentation. If one dogleg doesn't solve the problem, making a second one will make things worse only... * Bug: In Anabatic::Configuration::selectRpcomponent(), we were choosing the component with the *smallest* span instead of the *bigger* one. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, introduce a new flag "GoStraight" to tell that no turn go be made inside those GCells. Mainly used underneath a block corona. * New: In AnabaticEngine::layerAssign(), new GCellRps & RpsInRow to manage GCells with too many terminals. Slacken at least one RoutingPad access when there is more than 8 RoutingPad in the GCell (slacken or change a vertical METAL2 (non-preferred) into a METAL3). * Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV, allow the use of terminal connection in non-preferred direction. That is, vertical METAL2 directly connected to the RoutingPad (then a horizontal METAL2). This alllows for short dogleg without clutering the METAL3 layer (critical for AMS c35b4). Done in NetBuilderHV::doRp_Access(), with a new UseNonPref flag. Perform some other tweaking on METAL1 access topologies, to also minimize METAL3 use. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeNetConstraints(), also compute the distance to RoutingPad for segments. Set the Unbreakable flag, based on the distance and segment length (local, short global or long global). New local function "propagateDistanceFromRp()". * Change: In AnabaticEngine.h, the sorting class for NetData, SparsityOrder, is modificated so net with a degree superior to 10 are sorted first, whatever their sparsity. This is to work in tandem with GlobalRouting. * New: In Katana::TrackSegmentNonPref, introduce a class to manage segment in non-preferred routing direction. Mostly intended for small METAL2 vertical directly connected to RoutingPad. Modifications to manage this new variant all through Katana. * Change: In Katana::GlobalRoute, DigitalDistance honor the GoStraight flag of the GCell. Do not make bend inside thoses GCells. * Change: In KatanaEngine::runGlobalRouter(), high degree nets (>= 10) are routed first and whitout the global routing estimation. There should be few of them so they wont create saturations and we want them as straight as possible. Detour are for long be-points. Set the saerch halo to one GCell in the initial routing stage (before ripup). * Bug: In KatanaEngine & NegociateWindow, call _computeCagedconstraints() inside NegociateWindow::run(), as segments are inserted into tracks only at that point so we cannot make the computation earlier. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator::repackPerpandiculars(), add a flag to select whether to replace the perpandiculars *after* or *before* the current segment. * Change: In Katana::NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), when the segment is fully enclosed inside a global, the longest overlap cost is set to the shortest global hoverhang (before or after). When the cost is for a global, set an infinite cost if the overlapping segment has a RP distance less or equal to 1 (this is an access segment). * Bug: In Katana::PowerRailsPlane::Rail::doLayout(), correct computation of the segments extension cap. * New: In Katana::QueryPowerRails::addToPowerRail(), add support for Pad. * Change: In Katana/PreProcess::protectCagedTerminals(), apply the contraints to any turn connected to the first segment of the RoutingPad so the perpandicular constraints got propagated to the perpandicular segment... * Change: In RoutingEvent, cache the "distance to RP" value. * Change: In RoutingEvent::Key::compare(), sort *first* on distance to RoutingPad, then layer depth. If both distance to RoutingPad is null, then sort on segment length. * Change: In RoutingEvent::_processRepair(), try a repack perpandicular with perpandiculars first (then with perpandicular last, then give up). * Change: In SegmentFsm::bindToTrack() and moveToTrack(), set an axis hint when creating the insertion event. * Change: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), add a step through slacken between minimize and maximum slack (wihch directly end up in unimplemented). * Change: In Session::_addInsertEvent(), add an axis parameter needed when the axis of the segment is not the one of the track (case of wide segments or non-preferred direction). * Bug: In Track::_preDestroy(), bad management of the TrackElement reference count. Destroy the segment only when reaching zero... * Bug: In Track::expandFreeIneterval(), forgotten to manage case when there is a set of overlaping segments at the "end" of the track, the EndIsTrackMax was not set. * Change: In TrackCost::Compare, increase the cost when an overlaping segment is at it's ripup limit. We should try *not* to rip it up if we can. Add a dedicated flag "AtRipupLimit". * Change: In TrackElement, add proxies for isUnbreakable(), new function updateTrackSpan(). * New: In TrackFixedSegment CTOR, when a supply wire of METAL2 or above is found, make the underlying GCells "GoStraight". * New: In TrackElement::canDogleg(GCell*), check for already done perpandicular dogleg on source/target (reject if so).

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Upgrade of Katana detailed router to support Arlet 6502. * Change: In Hurricane::SharedName, replace the incremental Id by a hash key. This is to ensure better deterministic properties. Between use cases, additional strings may have to be allocated, shitfing the ids. Even if hash can be duplicated, we should be able to ensure that the absolute order in map table should be preserved. Supplemental strings are inserted in a way that keep the previous order. * Change: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/kite.conf, add "katabatic.routingGauge" default parameter value ("sxlib"). * Change: In CRL/etc/common/technology.conf, define minimal spacing for symbolic layers too (added for METAL4 only for now). * Change: In CRL::Histogram, extend support to dynamically sized histograms. Add a text pretty print with table and pseudo-curve. * Change: In Cumulus/plugins/ClockTreePlugin, create blockage under the block corona corners so the global router do not draw wire under them.

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

Add a dedicated flag "AtRipupLimit". * Change: In TrackElement, add proxies for isUnbreakable(), new function updateTrackSpan(). * New: In TrackFixedSegment CTOR, when a supply wire of METAL2 or above is found, make the underlying GCells "GoStraight". * New: In TrackElement::canDogleg(GCell*), check for already done perpandicular dogleg on source/target (reject if so).

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

Upgrade of Katana detailed router to support Arlet 6502. * Change: In Hurricane::SharedName, replace the incremental Id by a hash key. This is to ensure better deterministic properties. Between use cases, additional strings may have to be allocated, shitfing the ids. Even if hash can be duplicated, we should be able to ensure that the absolute order in map table should be preserved. Supplemental strings are inserted in a way that keep the previous order. * Change: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/kite.conf, add "katabatic.routingGauge" default parameter value ("sxlib"). * Change: In CRL/etc/common/technology.conf, define minimal spacing for symbolic layers too (added for METAL4 only for now). * Change: In CRL::Histogram, extend support to dynamically sized histograms. Add a text pretty print with table and pseudo-curve. * Change: In Cumulus/plugins/ClockTreePlugin, create blockage under the block corona corners so the global router do not draw wire under them. This was creating deadlock for the detailed router. When the abutment has to be computed, directly use Etesian to do it instead of duplicating the computation in the Python plugin. * New: In Etesian, as Coloquinte seems reluctant to evenly spread the standard cells, we trick it by making them bigger during the placement stage. Furthermore, we do not not uniformely increase the size of the cells but create a "bloating profile" based on cell size, cell name or it's density of terminals. Currently only two profiles are defined, "disabled" which does nothing and "nsxlib" targeted on 4 metal layer technologies (aka AMS 350nm, c35b4). * Bug: In Knik::MatrixVertex, load the default routing gauge using the configuration parameter "katabatic.routingGauge" as the default one may not be the first registered one. * New: In AnabaticEngine::setupNetDatas(), build a dynamic historgram of the nets terminal numbers. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact::Invalidate(), always invalidate the contact cache when topology is invalidated. In case of multiple invalidations, if the first did not invalidate the cache, later one that may need it where not allowed to do so. The end result was correct nonetheless, but it did generate annoying error messages. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTurn::updateTopology(), bad computation of the contact's depth when delta == 2. * Bug: In Anabatic::Gcell::getCapacity(), was always returning the west edge capacity, even for the westermost GCell, should be the east edge in that case. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new measure "distance to terminal". This is the minimal number of segments separating the current one from the nearest RoutingPad. This replace the previous "strong terminal" and "weak terminal" flags. This distance is used by Katana to sort the events, we route the segments *from* the RoutingPads *outward*. The idea being that if we cannot event connect to the RoutingPad, there is no points continuing as thoses segments are the more constraineds. This gives an order close to the simple ascending metals but with better results. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new flag "Unbreakable", disable dogleg making on those segments. mainly intended for local segments directly connecteds to RoutingPads (distance == 0). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, more aggressive reducing of segments. Now the only case where a segment cannot be reduced is when it is one horizontal branch in a HTee or a vertical on a VTee. Check if, when not accounted the source & target VIAs are still connex, if so, allow reducing. * New: In Anabatic::AutoContact, new state flags CntVDogleg & CntHDogleg mainly to prevent making doglegs twice on a turn contact. This is to limit over-fragmentation. If one dogleg doesn't solve the problem, making a second one will make things worse only... * Bug: In Anabatic::Configuration::selectRpcomponent(), we were choosing the component with the *smallest* span instead of the *bigger* one. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, introduce a new flag "GoStraight" to tell that no turn go be made inside those GCells. Mainly used underneath a block corona. * New: In AnabaticEngine::layerAssign(), new GCellRps & RpsInRow to manage GCells with too many terminals. Slacken at least one RoutingPad access when there is more than 8 RoutingPad in the GCell (slacken or change a vertical METAL2 (non-preferred) into a METAL3). * Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV, allow the use of terminal connection in non-preferred direction. That is, vertical METAL2 directly connected to the RoutingPad (then a horizontal METAL2). This alllows for short dogleg without clutering the METAL3 layer (critical for AMS c35b4). Done in NetBuilderHV::doRp_Access(), with a new UseNonPref flag. Perform some other tweaking on METAL1 access topologies, to also minimize METAL3 use. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeNetConstraints(), also compute the distance to RoutingPad for segments. Set the Unbreakable flag, based on the distance and segment length (local, short global or long global). New local function "propagateDistanceFromRp()". * Change: In AnabaticEngine.h, the sorting class for NetData, SparsityOrder, is modificated so net with a degree superior to 10 are sorted first, whatever their sparsity. This is to work in tandem with GlobalRouting. * New: In Katana::TrackSegmentNonPref, introduce a class to manage segment in non-preferred routing direction. Mostly intended for small METAL2 vertical directly connected to RoutingPad. Modifications to manage this new variant all through Katana. * Change: In Katana::GlobalRoute, DigitalDistance honor the GoStraight flag of the GCell. Do not make bend inside thoses GCells. * Change: In KatanaEngine::runGlobalRouter(), high degree nets (>= 10) are routed first and whitout the global routing estimation. There should be few of them so they wont create saturations and we want them as straight as possible. Detour are for long be-points. Set the saerch halo to one GCell in the initial routing stage (before ripup). * Bug: In KatanaEngine & NegociateWindow, call _computeCagedconstraints() inside NegociateWindow::run(), as segments are inserted into tracks only at that point so we cannot make the computation earlier. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator::repackPerpandiculars(), add a flag to select whether to replace the perpandiculars *after* or *before* the current segment. * Change: In Katana::NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), when the segment is fully enclosed inside a global, the longest overlap cost is set to the shortest global hoverhang (before or after). When the cost is for a global, set an infinite cost if the overlapping segment has a RP distance less or equal to 1 (this is an access segment). * Bug: In Katana::PowerRailsPlane::Rail::doLayout(), correct computation of the segments extension cap. * New: In Katana::QueryPowerRails::addToPowerRail(), add support for Pad. * Change: In Katana/PreProcess::protectCagedTerminals(), apply the contraints to any turn connected to the first segment of the RoutingPad so the perpandicular constraints got propagated to the perpandicular segment... * Change: In RoutingEvent, cache the "distance to RP" value. * Change: In RoutingEvent::Key::compare(), sort *first* on distance to RoutingPad, then layer depth. If both distance to RoutingPad is null, then sort on segment length. * Change: In RoutingEvent::_processRepair(), try a repack perpandicular with perpandiculars first (then with perpandicular last, then give up). * Change: In SegmentFsm::bindToTrack() and moveToTrack(), set an axis hint when creating the insertion event. * Change: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), add a step through slacken between minimize and maximum slack (wihch directly end up in unimplemented). * Change: In Session::_addInsertEvent(), add an axis parameter needed when the axis of the segment is not the one of the track (case of wide segments or non-preferred direction). * Bug: In Track::_preDestroy(), bad management of the TrackElement reference count. Destroy the segment only when reaching zero... * Bug: In Track::expandFreeIneterval(), forgotten to manage case when there is a set of overlaping segments at the "end" of the track, the EndIsTrackMax was not set. * Change: In TrackCost::Compare, increase the cost when an overlaping segment is at it's ripup limit. We should try *not* to rip it up if we can. Add a dedicated flag "AtRipupLimit". * Change: In TrackElement, add proxies for isUnbreakable(), new function updateTrackSpan(). * New: In TrackFixedSegment CTOR, when a supply wire of METAL2 or above is found, make the underlying GCells "GoStraight". * New: In TrackElement::canDogleg(GCell*), check for already done perpandicular dogleg on source/target (reject if so).

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Support for density estimation for the global router. * Bug: In Anabatic::Edge::getDistance(), remove the additionnal 0.1 added to horizontal edges. This was for testing before the hScaling parameter was added (to the distance computation in GlobalRoute). * New: Anabatic::Path_Edges, collectio to walkthrough all the edges between two node. More complex than in Knik as we are no longer using a regular grid. We may request the north bound path or south bound path. Collection returned by AnabaticEngine::getEdgesUnderPath(). * New: In Anabatic::NetData, add a new flag GlobalEstimated to tell if the net RMST has been computed (using FLUTE). * New: In Anabatic::PriorityQueue, used to sort Vertexes by increasing distances, add a new criterion to be used in case of distance equality. The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

cmess2 << " nWL:" << setw(7) << (wireLength /*+ viaCount*3*/);
cmess2 << " VIAs:" << setw(7) << viaCount;
Validating channel routing mode (two metals) on SNX. * New: In Hurricane::Entity, add an id counter limit and a memory size limit. The two limits are checked only when a new Entity object is created. This should help avoiding massive memory links. * New: In CRL Core, add a "crlcore.groundName" and a "crlcore.powerName" parameter to specify the name of the ground/power signals to be created if they are missing in a Cell. For Alliance libraries it would be "vss" & "vdd" (default values), but for real technologies, it is often "gnd!" & "vdd!". The Blif parser is modificated to make use of it. * Bug: In AnabaticEngine::unify(), set the resulting unified segment in the center of the GCells common side. Gcells under a segment are found by using the edge that cover the segment axis. When we have a "bend" GCell stack and the axis is wrong, they could be ommited. This was causing deleted segments to be not removed from some Edges, then core dump. * Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::create(), smarter choosing of the reference contact, select the fixed or terminal one instead of always the source one. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::isEnding(), new function to check if a segment going through an Edge is starting/ending in either source or target GCell of the edge (active only when running in channel mode). * New: In Anabatic::Edge::add(), a segment takes part in the occupancy only if it is not ending in either source or target (channel mode only). The occupancy due to terminal is pre-computed in Katana. * New: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), in channel mode, never ripup a segment which is ending in either source or target (we *have* to access this edge to connect to the terminal). * Bug: In Anabatic::GCell::hcut() and vcut(), force the update of the Edge which is on the side that will get splitted by the cut. It's capacity will be reduced to it must be updated. * Change: In Anabatic::GCell::updateGContacts() add a flag to conditionnally update horizontals or verticals only. We may require only a partial update when resizing the GCell in only one direction. This, again, related to the fact that we compute the GCells under a segment thanks to it's axis position, so we need to be very careful when modificating axis. * Change: In Katana::Block::resizeChannels(), only update GContact vertical position. Do not disturb X positions of segments. * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, in channel mode, some Edges can have a zero capacity, but still be reachable if the net has a terminal in either source or target. Look for this case and return a distance of zero instead of "unreachable". This was causing the global routing not to complete in channel mode. For computing the edge distance, makes the vertical edges much more long (10 times) than the horizontal ones as the vertical capacity is very limited. Hard coded for now, should make it a parameter in the future. * Change: In KatanaEngine::annotateGlobalGraph(), decrease the capacity of edges with reserveCapacity for each terminal inside a GCell. Both north and south edges are decreased as we a terminal will block both north and south edges. As a counterpart, the Edge capacity is not decreased when the global router connect to a terminal. * Change: In Katana::RoutingEvent::revalidate(), when in repair stage, do not expand the slack for horizontal segments in channel mode. So they may not overlap the standard cell row. * Bug: In Stratus documentation, do not use the french option in babel, the documentation is in english! * New: In Documentation, added Hurricane/Python tutorial, part for drawing layout.

Corrections in the Dijkstra global routing (ripup) mechanism. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra, the degree of a vertex (the number of neighbors belonging to the same net) was miscalculated. This was leading, in the materialize step to some feed-through vertexes not being broken. Leading in turn to incomplete transformation of the detailed routing. Also in _trackback(), the degree of the first vertex we were backtracking from was not incremented. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), systematically use GCell::breakGoThrough() on both source and target. This is needed when we are in the ripup phase as both source and target can be go-through. This was also leading to incomplete detailed routing transformation. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), ripup one third of the segments instead of thoses exeeding the global length threshold. This way we are sure to desaturate an edge. Needs to be further calibrated. * Change: In Aanabatic::GCell::breakGoThrough(), no longer return NULL. Return existing gcontact if any. Break if it is a go-through and create a new gcontact in last resort. Maybe rename this function. * New: In Anabatic::Configuration, new parameters: - anabatic.edgeHScaling, to adjust the length of the horizontal edges relative to the vertical ones (this is a ratio). - anabatic.globalIterations, set the maximum number of ripup passes of the global router. * New: In CRL/etc/*/kite.conf, added new parameters anabatic.edgeHScaling and anabatic.globalIterations. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, take into account the new edgeHScaling factor. Must be used when the capacity of V-edges differs greatly for H-edges (case of AMS 350nm c35b4 for instance). * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, the historic cost is computed for an edge length of "1". Must be multiplicated by the current edge length to have any measurable effect. This bug is finally explaining why the ripup was producing the same solutions over and over, the historical cost was negligible!

More configuration parameters for P&R Conductor, for experimenting. * Change: In Hurricane::Viewer::ExceptionWidget & CRL/python/helpers/io.py, downscale icons for non-HiDPI screen. * Change: In CRL/etc/common/display.py, change the display threshold of METAL1 layer so it do not appear at high scaling. * New: In Etesian, activate the "setFixedAbHeight()" feature and export it to Python.

Edge* edge = ovEdges[iEdge];
netCount += edge->ripup();
Corrections in the Dijkstra global routing (ripup) mechanism. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra, the degree of a vertex (the number of neighbors belonging to the same net) was miscalculated. This was leading, in the materialize step to some feed-through vertexes not being broken. Leading in turn to incomplete transformation of the detailed routing. Also in _trackback(), the degree of the first vertex we were backtracking from was not incremented. * Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), systematically use GCell::breakGoThrough() on both source and target. This is needed when we are in the ripup phase as both source and target can be go-through. This was also leading to incomplete detailed routing transformation. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge::ripup(), ripup one third of the segments instead of thoses exeeding the global length threshold. This way we are sure to desaturate an edge. Needs to be further calibrated. * Change: In Aanabatic::GCell::breakGoThrough(), no longer return NULL. Return existing gcontact if any. Break if it is a go-through and create a new gcontact in last resort. Maybe rename this function. * New: In Anabatic::Configuration, new parameters: - anabatic.edgeHScaling, to adjust the length of the horizontal edges relative to the vertical ones (this is a ratio). - anabatic.globalIterations, set the maximum number of ripup passes of the global router. * New: In CRL/etc/*/kite.conf, added new parameters anabatic.edgeHScaling and anabatic.globalIterations. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, take into account the new edgeHScaling factor. Must be used when the capacity of V-edges differs greatly for H-edges (case of AMS 350nm c35b4 for instance). * Bug: In Katana::GlobalRoute::DigitalDistance, the historic cost is computed for an edge length of "1". Must be multiplicated by the current edge length to have any measurable effect. This bug is finally explaining why the ripup was producing the same solutions over and over, the historical cost was negligible!

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

More complex than in Knik as we are no longer using a regular grid. We may request the north bound path or south bound path. Collection returned by AnabaticEngine::getEdgesUnderPath(). * New: In Anabatic::NetData, add a new flag GlobalEstimated to tell if the net RMST has been computed (using FLUTE). * New: In Anabatic::PriorityQueue, used to sort Vertexes by increasing distances, add a new criterion to be used in case of distance equality. The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector.

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison.

Upgrade of Katana detailed router to support Arlet 6502. * Change: In Hurricane::SharedName, replace the incremental Id by a hash key. This is to ensure better deterministic properties. Between use cases, additional strings may have to be allocated, shitfing the ids. Even if hash can be duplicated, we should be able to ensure that the absolute order in map table should be preserved. Supplemental strings are inserted in a way that keep the previous order. * Change: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/kite.conf, add "katabatic.routingGauge" default parameter value ("sxlib"). * Change: In CRL/etc/common/technology.conf, define minimal spacing for symbolic layers too (added for METAL4 only for now). * Change: In CRL::Histogram, extend support to dynamically sized histograms. Add a text pretty print with table and pseudo-curve. * Change: In Cumulus/plugins/ClockTreePlugin, create blockage under the block corona corners so the global router do not draw wire under them. This was creating deadlock for the detailed router. When the abutment has to be computed, directly use Etesian to do it instead of duplicating the computation in the Python plugin. * New: In Etesian, as Coloquinte seems reluctant to evenly spread the standard cells, we trick it by making them bigger during the placement stage. Furthermore, we do not not uniformely increase the size of the cells but create a "bloating profile" based on cell size, cell name or it's density of terminals. Currently only two profiles are defined, "disabled" which does nothing and "nsxlib" targeted on 4 metal layer technologies (aka AMS 350nm, c35b4). * Bug: In Knik::MatrixVertex, load the default routing gauge using the configuration parameter "katabatic.routingGauge" as the default one may not be the first registered one. * New: In AnabaticEngine::setupNetDatas(), build a dynamic historgram of the nets terminal numbers. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact::Invalidate(), always invalidate the contact cache when topology is invalidated. In case of multiple invalidations, if the first did not invalidate the cache, later one that may need it where not allowed to do so. The end result was correct nonetheless, but it did generate annoying error messages. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTurn::updateTopology(), bad computation of the contact's depth when delta == 2. * Bug: In Anabatic::Gcell::getCapacity(), was always returning the west edge capacity, even for the westermost GCell, should be the east edge in that case. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new measure "distance to terminal". This is the minimal number of segments separating the current one from the nearest RoutingPad. This replace the previous "strong terminal" and "weak terminal" flags. This distance is used by Katana to sort the events, we route the segments *from* the RoutingPads *outward*. The idea being that if we cannot event connect to the RoutingPad, there is no points continuing as thoses segments are the more constraineds. This gives an order close to the simple ascending metals but with better results. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new flag "Unbreakable", disable dogleg making on those segments. mainly intended for local segments directly connecteds to RoutingPads (distance == 0). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, more aggressive reducing of segments. Now the only case where a segment cannot be reduced is when it is one horizontal branch in a HTee or a vertical on a VTee. Check if, when not accounted the source & target VIAs are still connex, if so, allow reducing. * New: In Anabatic::AutoContact, new state flags CntVDogleg & CntHDogleg mainly to prevent making doglegs twice on a turn contact. This is to limit over-fragmentation. If one dogleg doesn't solve the problem, making a second one will make things worse only... * Bug: In Anabatic::Configuration::selectRpcomponent(), we were choosing the component with the *smallest* span instead of the *bigger* one. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, introduce a new flag "GoStraight" to tell that no turn go be made inside those GCells. Mainly used underneath a block corona. * New: In AnabaticEngine::layerAssign(), new GCellRps & RpsInRow to manage GCells with too many terminals. Slacken at least one RoutingPad access when there is more than 8 RoutingPad in the GCell (slacken or change a vertical METAL2 (non-preferred) into a METAL3). * Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV, allow the use of terminal connection in non-preferred direction. That is, vertical METAL2 directly connected to the RoutingPad (then a horizontal METAL2). This alllows for short dogleg without clutering the METAL3 layer (critical for AMS c35b4). Done in NetBuilderHV::doRp_Access(), with a new UseNonPref flag. Perform some other tweaking on METAL1 access topologies, to also minimize METAL3 use. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeNetConstraints(), also compute the distance to RoutingPad for segments. Set the Unbreakable flag, based on the distance and segment length (local, short global or long global). New local function "propagateDistanceFromRp()". * Change: In AnabaticEngine.h, the sorting class for NetData, SparsityOrder, is modificated so net with a degree superior to 10 are sorted first, whatever their sparsity. This is to work in tandem with GlobalRouting. * New: In Katana::TrackSegmentNonPref, introduce a class to manage segment in non-preferred routing direction. Mostly intended for small METAL2 vertical directly connected to RoutingPad. Modifications to manage this new variant all through Katana. * Change: In Katana::GlobalRoute, DigitalDistance honor the GoStraight flag of the GCell. Do not make bend inside thoses GCells. * Change: In KatanaEngine::runGlobalRouter(), high degree nets (>= 10) are routed first and whitout the global routing estimation. There should be few of them so they wont create saturations and we want them as straight as possible. Detour are for long be-points. Set the saerch halo to one GCell in the initial routing stage (before ripup). * Bug: In KatanaEngine & NegociateWindow, call _computeCagedconstraints() inside NegociateWindow::run(), as segments are inserted into tracks only at that point so we cannot make the computation earlier. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator::repackPerpandiculars(), add a flag to select whether to replace the perpandiculars *after* or *before* the current segment. * Change: In Katana::NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), when the segment is fully enclosed inside a global, the longest overlap cost is set to the shortest global hoverhang (before or after). When the cost is for a global, set an infinite cost if the overlapping segment has a RP distance less or equal to 1 (this is an access segment). * Bug: In Katana::PowerRailsPlane::Rail::doLayout(), correct computation of the segments extension cap. * New: In Katana::QueryPowerRails::addToPowerRail(), add support for Pad. * Change: In Katana/PreProcess::protectCagedTerminals(), apply the contraints to any turn connected to the first segment of the RoutingPad so the perpandicular constraints got propagated to the perpandicular segment... * Change: In RoutingEvent, cache the "distance to RP" value. * Change: In RoutingEvent::Key::compare(), sort *first* on distance to RoutingPad, then layer depth. If both distance to RoutingPad is null, then sort on segment length. * Change: In RoutingEvent::_processRepair(), try a repack perpandicular with perpandiculars first (then with perpandicular last, then give up). * Change: In SegmentFsm::bindToTrack() and moveToTrack(), set an axis hint when creating the insertion event. * Change: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), add a step through slacken between minimize and maximum slack (wihch directly end up in unimplemented). * Change: In Session::_addInsertEvent(), add an axis parameter needed when the axis of the segment is not the one of the track (case of wide segments or non-preferred direction). * Bug: In Track::_preDestroy(), bad management of the TrackElement reference count. Destroy the segment only when reaching zero... * Bug: In Track::expandFreeIneterval(), forgotten to manage case when there is a set of overlaping segments at the "end" of the track, the EndIsTrackMax was not set. * Change: In TrackCost::Compare, increase the cost when an overlaping segment is at it's ripup limit. We should try *not* to rip it up if we can. Add a dedicated flag "AtRipupLimit". * Change: In TrackElement, add proxies for isUnbreakable(), new function updateTrackSpan(). * New: In TrackFixedSegment CTOR, when a supply wire of METAL2 or above is found, make the underlying GCells "GoStraight". * New: In TrackElement::canDogleg(GCell*), check for already done perpandicular dogleg on source/target (reject if so).

Added support for 2-Metal block routing in Anabatic & Katana. * New: In AnabaticEngine::invalidateRoutingPads() this method is a temporary workaround for a Hurricane problems. When an instance is moved, the RoutingPads that use it must be moved accordingly, but they are not invalidated so they stay in the wrong QuadTree. New method ::_resizeMatrix() to be called when the associated Cell is resized. * Bug: In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints() and AutoVertical::getConstraints(), the *target* constraints where never merged. * Change: In AutoHorizontal::getCells() and AutoVertical::getGCells(), now return a boolean to tell if it was ok (must not encounter a NULL GCell while progessing from source to target). * New: In Anabatic::Configuration and Anabatic:Session, create new methods: - getDHorizontalLayer() - getDhorizontalDepth() - getDHorizontalWidth() - getDHorizontalPitch() And so on for Vertical and Contact. They supply depth-independant informations about the H/V layers to build the initial detailed routing. The AutoSegment::create() methods have been modificated accordingly. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, add two new types "StdCellRow" and "ChannelRow" for implementing 2-Metal blocks. Rename the GCell::setXY() method in GCell::setSouthWestCorner(), move the contents of GCell::updateContactsPosition() into it and suppress it. WARNING: In case of a GCell shrink this may cause problems. But for now we only expand... New method GCell::getNetCount() to count the number of Net going though the GCell. * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, add specific support for capacity of 2-Metal routing channels. * Change: In Anabatic::Dijsktra various methods, replace the "gcell->isMatrix()" calls by "not gcell->isAnalog()". Add more check so that the methods pertaining to the analog routing (GRData) are not called in digital mode. * New: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::materialize(), add support for 2-Metal specific cases. That is, always break in case of vertical pass-through or U-turn. The global routing must always be broken in H-Channel. * New: In Anabatic::GCell & Anabatic::Edge, make use of the Session mechanism to ensure the revalidation. The "::revalidate()" method is then moved as "::materialize()" (overload of Go) and "::_invalidate()" becomes "::invalidate()" * Change: In LoadGlobalRouting, cosmetic rename of SortHkByX in SortHookByX. * New: In GCellTopology, added support for building 2-Metal topologies. * ForkStack is now an object attribute as many methods do need it. * To push segments/hook on the stack, a new method "push()" is available. Perform NULL and fromHook checking. Can also setup _southWestContact or _northEastContact if it is the "from" edge. * N/S/E/W edges are now vector as in digital channel mode there can be more than one. * Added build topological build methods: - doRp_2m_Access() RoutingPad stem access. - _do_2m_1G_1M1() North or south access. - _do_2m_2G_1M1() North AND south access. - _do_2m_xG() H-Channel routing. * New: In Anabatic::Matrix, new ::resize() function, as Cell can be resizeds. * New: In Anabatic::Vertex, new static method ::getValueString() for a friendly text rendering. * New: In Katana::DigitalDistance, support for channel routing. * Change: In KatanaEngine::digitalSetup() and KatanaEngine::runGlobalrouter(), for channel routing, calls to setupPowerRails() and protectRoutingPads() must be called after the core block has been fully dimensionned. ::runGlobalrouter() contains the code tasked with the grid creation and channel sizing. * New: In KatanaEngine: Added support for core block, for 2-Metal routing. May be expanded for over-the-cell routing in the future. Added methods : - isDigitalMode() - isAnalogMode() - isMixedMode() - isChannelMode() - getBlock() / addBlock() - setupChannelMode() - createChannel() * New: In Katana, new class Block to manage core blocks and perform channel routing. * New: In Katana::Session, new convenience method "isOpen()".

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Groudwork for routing density driven placement. Compliance with clang 5.0.1. This commit contains two set of features that should have been commited separately. 1. Compliance with clang 5.0.1, tested with the RedHat collection llvm-toolset-7. This allow Coriolis to be compiled under Darwin (MacOS) with Xcode & macports. The bootstrap install system has been modificated accordingly. 2. The basic support for routing density driven placement. Related features are: * Bloat property. Each Occurrence of an Instance can be individually bloated. This property not attached to any tool to allow the placer and router to share it as wanted. Nevertheless, it is defined in Etesian. * BloatProfile in Katana, add individual Bloat properties to Instances occurrences based on the East & North overflowed edges of each GCell. * Support in ToolEngine for a "pass number" of a tool. This pass number is mainly used to make "per pass" measurements. The MeasureSet system is improved accordingly to support multiple values of a same measure. * Embryo of "P&R Conductor" to perform the place & route loop until the design is successfully placed. May be the first brick of a Silicon Compiler. * Change: In boostrap/FindBoostrap.cmake, in setup_boost(), added tag to the python component for macport (ex: python27). * Change: In boostrap/build.conf, put etesian before anabatic for instance occurrence BloatProperty dependency. Added option support for the "llvm-toolset-7" collection to build against clang 5.0.1. * Bug: In Hurricane::getRecord( const pair<T,U>& ), the getSlot<> templates for first & second arguments must be called with <const T> and <const U> as the pair itself is const (and not simply <T> & <U>). * Change: In Hurricane::getSlot() temlate, only use "string" arguments and not const string&, simpler for template argument deduction. * Bug: In Hurricane::AnalogCellExtension, the StandardPrivateProperty<> template has a static member "_name". Clang did show that the template for this static number has to be put inside the namespace where the template *is defined* (i.e. Hurricane) instead of the namespace where it is instanciated (i.e. Analog). * Bug: In Isobar, Matrix_FromListOfList(), PyInt_AsPlacementStatus() must be put outside the C linkage back in the Isobar C++ namespace (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::DBo::~DBo, and derived add a throw() specification (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::RegularLayer::getEnclosure() & setEnclosure(), change signature so it matches the one of the base class (clang). * Bug: In Hurricane::CellPrinter, use double brackets for initializer list (clang). * Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, reverse the meaning of the error level. Only error level *lesser or equal* than the stop level will be enabled. * Bug: In CRL/python/helpers/__init__.loadUserSettings(), must put the current working directory in the sys.path as in certain configuration it may not be included. * Bug: In CRL::ApDriver, DumpSegments(), no longer generate segments when encountering a RoutingPad on a top-level Pin Occurrence. The segment was generated in the wrong direction, creating DRC violations on the "mips_core_flat" example. * Change: In CRL::Measures, partial re-design of the measurements management. Now, each kind of measure can accept multiple values put in a vector. The index is intented to match a tool run number. * Change: In CRL::Histogram, add support for multiple sets of datas, indexeds with tool run number. * Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for multiple pass number, add addMeasure<> templates for the various data-types. * Change: In CRL::gdsDriver & CRL::gdsParser(), comment out unused GDS record name constants. * New: Etesian::BloatProperty, property to attach to Instance occurrences that contains the extra number of pitch to add to the cell width. * Bug: In AutoSegment::CompareByDepthLength, the segment length comparison was wrong, it was always returning true, which broke the "strick weak ordering" of the comparison. This was producing a core-dump in GCell::updateDensity() when sorting a vector<>. The end() iterator was being dereferenced, leading to the problem. * Bug: In Katana::DataSymmetric::checkPairing(), the test for segments whose axis is perpandicular to the symmetry axis was wrong ("!=" instead of "-"). * New: In Katana/GlobalRoute, new ::selectSegments(), selectOverloadedgcells() and selectBloatedInstances() to automatically select segments from overloaded edges, overloaded GCells and bloated cells. * Change: In KatanaEngine, return a more detailed success state, distinguish between global and detailed. Add support for multiple routing iterations. * New: In cumulus/python/plugins/ConductorPlugin.py, embryo of routing driven placement.

Clarify semantic of flatten Collections (walkthrough). In the Cell/Instance hierarchy, the "terminal" and "leaf cell" concepts where not clearly defined and partially overlapping. Now, "Terminal" is the refer to the physical hierarchy (layout) and "TerminalNetlist" to the logical hierarchy (netlist). The logical hierarchy can be less deep than the physical one thanks to a Cell dedicated cell flags. Collections related to the physical hierarchy keep their old names, the one related to the logical hierarchy are renamed from "Leaf" to "TerminalNetlist". The name "Leaf" was too ambiguous (leaf for *what* hierarchy). * Change: In Hurricane::Device, set the "TerminalNetlist" flag once and for all. No need set it in all the derived classes again. * New: In Hurricane::MultiCapacitor, added new parameter "dummy" to create dummies around the capacity matrix. * Change: In Hurricane::Cell, remove "Leaf" related methods, replace them by "TerminalNetlist" one, especially Collections. Now we have two clear sets of Collections to walkthough the layout or the netlist. Change the "Terminal" flag into "TerminalNetlist". * Change: In Hurricane::CellCollections, rename "Leaf" into "TerminalNetlist" collections and apply the new semantic to the locators. * Change: In Hurricane::DataBase, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In Hurricane::DeepNet, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In Hurricane::HyperNet, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In Hurricane::Instance, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In Hurricane::Viewer::HierarchyInformations, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In CRL::AllianceFramework, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In CRL::Catalog, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In CRL::ApParser, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Change: In EtesianEngine::AddFeeds, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Bug: In EtesianEngine::resetPlacement, move there the loop over non terminal netlist instances to flag fully placed sub-blocks as terminal for the netlist. Only then remove the feed cells from unplaced instances. Previously, the feed cells where stripped even from already placed instances. * Change: In Katana, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming. * Bug: In Bora::PyDSlicingNode, allow the range parameter to be the Python None object when we do not want to pass one but need to have it as positional parameter. * Change: In Cumulus/clocktree/ClockTree.py, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.

Anabatic transient commit 18. Port of Kite (Katana), Yeah, Baby! Yeah! * Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so the caller can be aware of the situation... * Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes). * Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp(). It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well. * Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north border. * Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one. * Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we are opening the right Session type. * Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the Flags::WithSelf is set. * Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps. Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking problems. A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches, have to replace them by if/else. * New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function. * Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with the reserved local capacity. * New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened "Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even slightly faster than Kite 8-).

Support for density estimation for the global router. * Bug: In Anabatic::Edge::getDistance(), remove the additionnal 0.1 added to horizontal edges. This was for testing before the hScaling parameter was added (to the distance computation in GlobalRoute). * New: Anabatic::Path_Edges, collectio to walkthrough all the edges between two node. More complex than in Knik as we are no longer using a regular grid. We may request the north bound path or south bound path. Collection returned by AnabaticEngine::getEdgesUnderPath(). * New: In Anabatic::NetData, add a new flag GlobalEstimated to tell if the net RMST has been computed (using FLUTE). * New: In Anabatic::PriorityQueue, used to sort Vertexes by increasing distances, add a new criterion to be used in case of distance equality. The attractor which should be the center of the search area. In case of equality, we choose the Vertex which is closest to the attractor. Give a small improvement, and more "dendritic" trees. For a more simple implementation of the comparison function it is made as a static member (so no two Dijkstra objects at the same time...). * Change: In Anabatic::Edge, make the estimate occupance a floating point number instead of an integer. * New: In Katana::GlobalRoute, finally implement the estimated congestion driven router. Net RMST estimated using FLUTE. Use the historic cost from Knik implementation and not the one given in Damien's thesis, which seems not be the same and a bit strange. * New: In KatanaEngine, add the ability to exclude nets from routing, and export it to Python.

Upgrade of Katana detailed router to support Arlet 6502. * Change: In Hurricane::SharedName, replace the incremental Id by a hash key. This is to ensure better deterministic properties. Between use cases, additional strings may have to be allocated, shitfing the ids. Even if hash can be duplicated, we should be able to ensure that the absolute order in map table should be preserved. Supplemental strings are inserted in a way that keep the previous order. * Change: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/kite.conf, add "katabatic.routingGauge" default parameter value ("sxlib"). * Change: In CRL/etc/common/technology.conf, define minimal spacing for symbolic layers too (added for METAL4 only for now). * Change: In CRL::Histogram, extend support to dynamically sized histograms. Add a text pretty print with table and pseudo-curve. * Change: In Cumulus/plugins/ClockTreePlugin, create blockage under the block corona corners so the global router do not draw wire under them. This was creating deadlock for the detailed router. When the abutment has to be computed, directly use Etesian to do it instead of duplicating the computation in the Python plugin. * New: In Etesian, as Coloquinte seems reluctant to evenly spread the standard cells, we trick it by making them bigger during the placement stage. Furthermore, we do not not uniformely increase the size of the cells but create a "bloating profile" based on cell size, cell name or it's density of terminals. Currently only two profiles are defined, "disabled" which does nothing and "nsxlib" targeted on 4 metal layer technologies (aka AMS 350nm, c35b4). * Bug: In Knik::MatrixVertex, load the default routing gauge using the configuration parameter "katabatic.routingGauge" as the default one may not be the first registered one. * New: In AnabaticEngine::setupNetDatas(), build a dynamic historgram of the nets terminal numbers. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact::Invalidate(), always invalidate the contact cache when topology is invalidated. In case of multiple invalidations, if the first did not invalidate the cache, later one that may need it where not allowed to do so. The end result was correct nonetheless, but it did generate annoying error messages. * Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTurn::updateTopology(), bad computation of the contact's depth when delta == 2. * Bug: In Anabatic::Gcell::getCapacity(), was always returning the west edge capacity, even for the westermost GCell, should be the east edge in that case. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new measure "distance to terminal". This is the minimal number of segments separating the current one from the nearest RoutingPad. This replace the previous "strong terminal" and "weak terminal" flags. This distance is used by Katana to sort the events, we route the segments *from* the RoutingPads *outward*. The idea being that if we cannot event connect to the RoutingPad, there is no points continuing as thoses segments are the more constraineds. This gives an order close to the simple ascending metals but with better results. * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a new flag "Unbreakable", disable dogleg making on those segments. mainly intended for local segments directly connecteds to RoutingPads (distance == 0). * New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, more aggressive reducing of segments. Now the only case where a segment cannot be reduced is when it is one horizontal branch in a HTee or a vertical on a VTee. Check if, when not accounted the source & target VIAs are still connex, if so, allow reducing. * New: In Anabatic::AutoContact, new state flags CntVDogleg & CntHDogleg mainly to prevent making doglegs twice on a turn contact. This is to limit over-fragmentation. If one dogleg doesn't solve the problem, making a second one will make things worse only... * Bug: In Anabatic::Configuration::selectRpcomponent(), we were choosing the component with the *smallest* span instead of the *bigger* one. * New: In Anabatic::GCell, introduce a new flag "GoStraight" to tell that no turn go be made inside those GCells. Mainly used underneath a block corona. * New: In AnabaticEngine::layerAssign(), new GCellRps & RpsInRow to manage GCells with too many terminals. Slacken at least one RoutingPad access when there is more than 8 RoutingPad in the GCell (slacken or change a vertical METAL2 (non-preferred) into a METAL3). * Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV, allow the use of terminal connection in non-preferred direction. That is, vertical METAL2 directly connected to the RoutingPad (then a horizontal METAL2). This alllows for short dogleg without clutering the METAL3 layer (critical for AMS c35b4). Done in NetBuilderHV::doRp_Access(), with a new UseNonPref flag. Perform some other tweaking on METAL1 access topologies, to also minimize METAL3 use. * New: In AnabaticEngine::computeNetConstraints(), also compute the distance to RoutingPad for segments. Set the Unbreakable flag, based on the distance and segment length (local, short global or long global). New local function "propagateDistanceFromRp()". * Change: In AnabaticEngine.h, the sorting class for NetData, SparsityOrder, is modificated so net with a degree superior to 10 are sorted first, whatever their sparsity. This is to work in tandem with GlobalRouting. * New: In Katana::TrackSegmentNonPref, introduce a class to manage segment in non-preferred routing direction. Mostly intended for small METAL2 vertical directly connected to RoutingPad. Modifications to manage this new variant all through Katana. * Change: In Katana::GlobalRoute, DigitalDistance honor the GoStraight flag of the GCell. Do not make bend inside thoses GCells. * Change: In KatanaEngine::runGlobalRouter(), high degree nets (>= 10) are routed first and whitout the global routing estimation. There should be few of them so they wont create saturations and we want them as straight as possible. Detour are for long be-points. Set the saerch halo to one GCell in the initial routing stage (before ripup). * Bug: In KatanaEngine & NegociateWindow, call _computeCagedconstraints() inside NegociateWindow::run(), as segments are inserted into tracks only at that point so we cannot make the computation earlier. * Change: In Katana::Manipulator::repackPerpandiculars(), add a flag to select whether to replace the perpandiculars *after* or *before* the current segment. * Change: In Katana::NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), when the segment is fully enclosed inside a global, the longest overlap cost is set to the shortest global hoverhang (before or after). When the cost is for a global, set an infinite cost if the overlapping segment has a RP distance less or equal to 1 (this is an access segment). * Bug: In Katana::PowerRailsPlane::Rail::doLayout(), correct computation of the segments extension cap. * New: In Katana::QueryPowerRails::addToPowerRail(), add support for Pad. * Change: In Katana/PreProcess::protectCagedTerminals(), apply the contraints to any turn connected to the first segment of the RoutingPad so the perpandicular constraints got propagated to the perpandicular segment... * Change: In RoutingEvent, cache the "distance to RP" value. * Change: In RoutingEvent::Key::compare(), sort *first* on distance to RoutingPad, then layer depth. If both distance to RoutingPad is null, then sort on segment length. * Change: In RoutingEvent::_processRepair(), try a repack perpandicular with perpandiculars first (then with perpandicular last, then give up). * Change: In SegmentFsm::bindToTrack() and moveToTrack(), set an axis hint when creating the insertion event. * Change: In SegmentFsm::_slackenStrap(), add a step through slacken between minimize and maximum slack (wihch directly end up in unimplemented). * Change: In Session::_addInsertEvent(), add an axis parameter needed when the axis of the segment is not the one of the track (case of wide segments or non-preferred direction). * Bug: In Track::_preDestroy(), bad management of the TrackElement reference count. Destroy the segment only when reaching zero... * Bug: In Track::expandFreeIneterval(), forgotten to manage case when there is a set of overlaping segments at the "end" of the track, the EndIsTrackMax was not set. * Change: In TrackCost::Compare, increase the cost when an overlaping segment is at it's ripup limit. We should try *not* to rip it up if we can. Add a dedicated flag "AtRipupLimit". * Change: In TrackElement, add proxies for isUnbreakable(), new function updateTrackSpan(). * New: In TrackFixedSegment CTOR, when a supply wire of METAL2 or above is found, make the underlying GCells "GoStraight". * New: In TrackElement::canDogleg(GCell*), check for already done perpandicular dogleg on source/target (reject if so).
