* Bug: In Katana::Track::expandFreeInterval(), the OutsideElement case was
not handled correctly, the end index must be increased in that case.
As a result, this function was returning too short an interval.
This was affecting the computation of perpandicular free interval
in DataNegociate::update() for perpandicular fixed but not in a track.
* New: In Anabatic::NetBuilder and NetBuilderVH, now manage GCells with
one Pin, and up to three globals. Used to put terminals at the
edge of a block.
* New: In EtesianEngine, now manage placed Pins.
(done through extractInstanceName())
* Change: In CRL::RoutingGauge::getHorizontalGauge() no longer skip PinOnly
gauges to find the reference one (same goes for vertical).
* New: Anabatic::AutoContact::setLayerAndWidth() to set both layer and
VIA width/side according to the RoutingGauge. If the delta in zero,
use the metal gauge, and the VIA gauge otherwise.
* Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactTerminal, Anabatic::AutoContactTurn,
Anabatic::AutoContactHTee & Anabatic::AutoContactVTee, in the
updateTopology() method, set both the layer and the VIA with when
there is a change of layer. Note that this default size may be
overriden later by updateSeize() in the case of non-default width
segments.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, new overload setLayer(size_t) to set
both layer and segment with according to the routing gauge.
* Bug: In Anabatic::AutoHorizontal and Anabatic::AutoVertical, in method
_makeDogleg(), make use of the new setLayer() to correctly set up
the wire width.
Idem for Anabatic::AutoSegment::changeDepth() and ::makeDogleg(),
and in Anabatic::LayerAssign.
* 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.
* New: In Commons, inspector support for std::pair<T,U>.
* New: In Hurricane::Layer, ContactLayer & ViaLayer, support for non
square VIAs. The hole (cut) remains square, but the various metal
extensions can now be different in X and Y. The ::getEnclosure()
method now takes a flag EnclosureH / EnclosureV.
* New: In Hurricane::DbU, inspector support for:
std::pair<DbU::Unit,DbU::Unit>
std::array<DbU::Unit,3>
Must be defined here as DbU do not exists yet in Commons.h
* Bug: In Hurricane::Interval::getSize(), when the interval is "full span",
do not return the difference between min and max, but directly DbU::Max.
(the previous result was -1 !)
* New: In CRL Core Python/Technology.py, support for non square VIAs in
the configuration files. Applied to FreePDK 45.
* New: In CRL::RoutingGauge, added a "symbolic" flag to tell if a gauge
is for symbolic layout or not. Exported to Python.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoHorizontal::updatePosition(), differentiated
computation for soure or target taking account of the VIA extension
in the right segment metal (due to non-square VIAs).
* Change: In Anabatic::AutoHorizontal::_makeDogleg(), the dogleg is
UP for HV gauges and DOWN for VH.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::_initialize(), create a cache of the
various extension length for each layer (viaToTop, viaToBottom,
viaToSame).
New implementation of getExtensionCap() using the previous cached
extension table. See updatePositions().
New static functions to access the extension cache in the header:
getViaTotopCap() ...
* Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, in various update methods, updateOrient()
must always be called *before* updatePositions() as extensions are
dependant on source/target.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::getEndAxes() compute the position of the
first source and last target position (center/axes) on an *aligned*
set of segments.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, add a new state flag SegAxisFixed to
signal segments that can be put on only one track. Specific case
to VH gauge for a M1 vertical terminal with a M2 vertical segment.
The M2 is effectively bound to the M1 axis position.
* Bug: In Anabatic::NetBuilderVH::_do_xG_xM1_xM3(), in case of E/W global
and only one RoutingPad the connexion to the RoutingPad was duplicated.
It was valid, but totally stupid.
* Bug: In Anabatic::Session::_canonize(), for an aligned segment set,
intersect the user constraints from all segments instead of only
considering the canonical one.
Issue a warning about too tight constraints only for symbolic
gauges. It may be correct for the real ones.
* New: In Katata::DataNegociate::update(), more accurate computation
of the perpandicular free interval. Use segment extension cap
calculation. Create a special case for fixed axis segments allowing
them to find alternative free interval, try under source and under
target as they are likely to be draggable segments.
* Change: In Katana::Manipulator::relax(), use the extension cap value
to compute the axis of the perpandicular segemnts.
* Change: In Katana::Manipulator::moveUp(), now move up the whole set
of aligned segments instead of just the canonical one.
* Change: In Katana::NegociateWindow::loadRoutingPads(), more accurate
TrackMarkers insertions for fixed terminals.
* New: In Katana::RoutingEvent::Key::Compare::operator(), segments with
fixed axis are processed prior to any others.
* New: In Katana::RoutingEventLoop, store segment pointers instead of
ids to generate more accurate error messages.
* Change: In Katana::RoutingPlane::create(), perform local track
assignment only for HV gauges.
* Change: In Katana::SegmentFsm::_slackenLocal(), add a "dragMinimize"
step in the automaton. Mutliple states transitions can occurs in
a row if an action fails.
* New: In Katana::Session::_toIntervalAxis(), normalize interval
bounds so they are on track positions (by shrinking the interval).
* Bug: In Katana::TrackMarker CTOR, the weigh computation was wrong.
* 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).
* Bug: In Anabatic::GCell, new functions getConstraintUMax() to return the
correct bounding box for the last north/east GCell. The GCells do not
own their north/east edges, except for the last ones. Thoses functions
must distinct from getUMax() because for them, the shrink is always
applied. getConstraintBox() uses the "getConstraintUMax()" functions.
* Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact, initialize the constraint box from the
new GCell::getConstraintUMax(), to manage correctly the boundaries
of the nothernmost & easternmost GCells. The problem was showing for
pins on the north/east side of a circuit, the constraint
* Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactHTee, Anabatic::AutoContactVTee and
Anabatic::AutoContactTerminal forgot to call the _preCreate() function
in the various create().
* Bug: In Matrix::getUnder(), if on the N/E boundary, decrease by one to
be enclosed in it.
