* Bug: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, Anabatic::AutoContact and derived
classes, the recursive invalidation mechanism did have cross-call
troubles.
- The various AutoContact::_invalidate() now take the flag into
account instead of resetting it. This is for Flags::Topology
to be passed along from segments to contacts.
- In AutoSegment::invalidate(), do not invalidate S/T contacts
already invalidateds. In the same way, do not invalidate
aligned segments already invalidateds (save some recursion).
- In AutoSegment::_changeDepth(), call invalidate with
Flags::Topology (to force contact update) and Flags::NoCheckLayer
to avoid disgraceful warnings.
* New: Anabatic::NetBuilder::_do_xG_1M1() with (x >= 2) new set of
optimized topologies when there is multiple globals but only one
terminal. The default one was making two connections to the same
RoutingPad, which was making clutter.
* Change: In Anabatic::AutoContactTerminal::getNativeConstraintBox(),
when the anchor is a RoutingPad (which must be always the case),
perform the true computation of it's position based on the
segment occurrence. It is a important change, previously the
area was in fact the "center line" of the connector while now
it is really an area (mandatory for "half-offgrid" terminals of
real technologies).
The change is not complete yet, the area should be shrinked
by the half size of a VIA, because the area applies to the center
coordinate of the VIA (to be done quickly).
* Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTurn::updateTopology(), when a dogleg
is created (restore connexity after a layer change) the layer of
the VIA, based on the segments it connects to must be re-computed
*after* the dogleg has been made.
* Change: In all files of Anabatic, when comparing two layers, no longer
use the Layer pointer itself, but the layer mask. This allow a
transparent management of both real and symbolic layers (which
do share the same mask). Real metal layers (not VIAs) will be
BasicLayer and symbolic metal layers will be RegularLayer.
* New: Anabatic::Configuration::selectRpComponent(), select the best
RoutingPad component for metal1 terminals. Look for the metal1
component with the biggest accessibility on-grid.
RoutingPad using other metals are left untoucheds.
* New: New function Anabatic::Vertex::getNeighbor(Edge*) to get the
neighbor Vertex through an Edge*. This method allows to write
clearer code as we no longer need to access the neighbor through
the underlying GCell.
Also add proxies for GCell methods in Vertex.
* Bug: In Anabatic::Dijkstra::_toSources(), in the ripup stage, when
a component with multiples vertexes is reached *and* two of it's
vertexes are reached *at the same time* (one from which we backtrack
and one still in the queue) extraneous edges may be created by
_materialize(). Case occurs on snx/c35b4, "abc_5360_n903_1".
To solve this, Dijkstra::_toSource() is modificated, the "from"
edges of the newly reacheds vertexes are reset to NULL, *except*
for the one we will be backtracking from. That is, the one given
in the source argument.
* Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilder class, put the various Hooks and
RoutingPad sorting functions as class ones.
* Bug: In AutoSegment::setLayer(), raise the SegInvalidatedFayer flag.
This unset flag was causing AutoContactTurn::updateTopology()
to not work as expected and making gaps, this was the cause of
the last remaining warnings about layer connexity.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoContact and the derived classes, manages wide
wires. The contact self dimension itself according to the segments
it is connected to. Special case for the AutoContactTerminal which
also read the size of the component it is anchored upon.
New refresh method "updateSize()" and flag CntInvalidatedWidth.
to compute the size.
In AutoContactTerminal, compute the constraint box according to
the width of the segment.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, flags are now implemented as "static const"
attributes of the class. The flags are stored into a uint64_t as
they are more than 32.
Added new flag "SegWide" and associated predicates.
* Change: In GCellTopology::_doHChannel() and GCellTopology::_doVChannel(),
uses the simpler overload of AutoSegment::create() in order to detect
the wire width automatically.
* New: In Katana::Manipulator, split insertToTrack() and forceToTrack()
into a one-track method and a segment level method that iterate over
the track span of the segment.
* New: In Katana::SegmentFsm, for each cost in the table, now allow access
to a specific track. So the base functions have now two parameters:
"icost" and "itrack" (has a cost can have multiple tracks in the case
of wide segments).
* Change: In Katana::TrackElement, remove the index of the element inside
it's track, as for a wide segment it will not be meaningful for the
non-base track. This means that we have to use the Track::find()
method each time instead.
Remove the wide flag, as it is a duplicate of the one in AutoSegment.
Added a getTrackCount() method to tell the number of track the
segment is inserted into. Needed in the Track destroy step to delete
a segment only when the last track that refers it is destroyed.
Added getSymmetricAxis() to correct the computation of the symmetric
base track in case of wide segment as the base track is not centered
but the the leftmost one.
* Change: In Track::insert() insert wide segments in their whole track span.
* Change: In TrackCost, create an array of costs according to the segment
track span.
* Change: In TrackSegment::create(), now activate the factory and create
wide segments.
* Bug: In Katana::AutoSegments_Perpandicular, correct the debug indentation
problem (ever shifting to the right).
* Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegments collections, change the type of all
the flags that where in "unsigned int" (32 bits) to Flags (uint64_t)
as there is now more than 32 flags for functions.
* New: In Ababatic::Constants, added new flag Flags::WithPerpands, which
makes the number of flags tip over 32 bits, thus making mandatory
to uses Flags and not unsigned int.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegments_Perpandiculars, manage a new flag
Flags::WithDoglegs to allow to propagate through global segments that
are connecteds via doglegs on local segments. Meaning that there is
a good chance that they could be aligned.
Slighly change the way we propagate on aligned segments: no longer
check for VTee or HTee, but only for same direction and layer as
master.
* New: In Anabatic & Katana, replace all the "int", "long" and their
variants by the less implementation ambiguous "int32_t", "int64_t"
(and variant). This should help to better detect bit trucation in
flags.
Use the type to give a hint about the flags kind:
- Type "Flags", for flags shared among Anabatic & Katana
functions/methods (may also appear in some objects states).
- Type "uint32_t" for flags belonging to an object internal
state of from Hurricane functions flags (those should be
grouped in a Flag subclass in a perfect world).
