    - New: In buildCoriolis, add a Debian packaging method.
    - Change: In coriolis2.spec, the build/install procedure now makes uses of
        the top-level Makefile.
    - Change: In FindBoostrap, detection of the distribution type. Finally not
        needed but kept here, just in case. Based on "lsb_release".

        site-package directory. No longer on-the-fly generate a python script.

2011-01-28 12:57:00 +00:00
Jean-Paul Chaput 17f3207d71 * ./kite:
- New: In NegociateWindow/RoutingEvent, adds a more comprehensive stage
        "Repair". Perform in three stage: first try to place with a relaxed
        constraint (one GCell on each side). Second try to minimize the faulty
        segment. Third perform another "repack perpandicular" but this time
        the faulty segment is re-inserted *before* any of it's perpandiculars.
    - New: In RoutingEvent::cacheAxisHint(), when a segment has a parent, that
        is comes for a "moveUp()", uses the parent axis hint as it's own.
    - New: In State::slackenTopology(), in the global FSM, adds a special
        operation when reaching MaximumSlack: forceOverLocals(), try to insert
        the global on track containing only local segments. Should tend to
        concentrate locals on a small set of shared tracks. Most useful on the
        highest layers.
    - New: In State::slackenTopology(), in the "MoveUp" state, try to find the
        more appropriate segment to move up (Manipulator::desaturate()).
        Effectively move up the longest segment fully enclosing the one we are
        processing.
    - New: In State::slackenTopology(), add a check for fully blocked segments
        in the local segment FSM. Calls State::solveFullBlocked().
    - New: In KiteEngine::createGlobalGraph(), decrease the vertical capacity
        of one track inside the core. Helps smooth the vertical density.
    - Change: In Manipulator::insertInTrack(), when a track is freed for a
        to be inserted changes the priorities so that the segment is immediatly
        inserted. Parallels ripeds and theirs perpandiculars are replaced
        only *after*. This is the opposite of the previous behavior.
    - Change: In NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), account the costs
        of terminals only for deep depth layers (M1, M2 & M3).
    - Change: In RoutingEvent::insertInTrack(), expand the excluded interval
        by a half-pitch (2.5l) instead of one lambda.
    - Change: In State::State(), do not uses DiscardGlobal if the ripup count
        exceed 5. Case of the "Strap" segments that can be ripped a lot
        before changing state.
    - Change: In State::_processNegociate(), no longer lock into position
        (fixed) the local terminal segments as a last resort.
    - Change: In RoutingEvent::_processNegociate(), no longer ripup perpandiculars
        when a segment is inserted in a free space. Reduce the number of
        events whithout degrading the routing quality.
    - Change: In State::conflictSolve1_v1b(), if getLongestConflict() is nul,
        ignore the track, the conflict must occurs on another track.
    - Change: In TrackCost, add a flag support. First uses, a flags to prevent
        a local of the topmost layer to ripup a global which is in moveUp
        state.
    - Bug: In State::solveFullBlockage(), after have been freed, reset the
        segment state to "moveUp".
    - Bug: In manipulator::minimize(), the axisHint was miscalculated if the
        punctual span was empty.

Jean-Paul Chaput cbccf9e2a4 * ./katabatic:
- New: In LayerAssignement & GCell, perform layer assignment on whole net
        trunk, instead on a segment by segment basis.
    - New: In GCell, fragmentation analysis. When a layer change is requested,
        it allows to check if the additionnal perpandiculars created to
        maintain connexity will not over fragment the layer. This is particu-
        larly critical for M3->M5 which create M4 in perpandiculars, and M4
        may be subject to very dense configuration.
    - New: In AutoSegment & LoadGrByNet, adds a flags telling if the net's
        degree equal 2. Has not proven to be useful yet.
    - New: In AutoSegment, adds a flag telling if the segment is the perpan-
        dicular part of a dogleg. Has not proven useful yet.
2011-01-25 17:16:27 +00:00
Jean-Paul Chaput 10682d9c7c * ./crlcore:
- Change: In RoutingLayerGauge, no longer throw exception when the position
        requested it outside the track grid. Instead returns first/last track
        index.
2011-01-25 17:15:56 +00:00
Jean-Paul Chaput b8e42d2efc * ./hurricane/src/viewer:
- New: In ExceptionWidget, mimic more closely the behavior of a QDialog.
        Uses QTextEdit/QTextDocument for the trace. Static "all in one" methods,
        build from various exceptions/Errors & QString. Automatic window centering
        when the trace is displayed.

Jean-Paul Chaput 5273be039e * ./stratus:
- Bug: In doc/stratus, correct rendering of images under LaTeX & HTML. Latex2HTML
        requires the file extension (.png) to be present while latex don't want them.
        Build alternate sources with the \latexhtml macro so both are happy.

2011-01-09 18:28:00 +00:00
Jean-Paul Chaput c19429108e * ./kite:
- New: In RoutingEvent, while routing a full chip, transient full blockages
        may happens due to the initial position of some perpandiculars on theirs
        optimal positions. Check for it and perform a "ripupPerpandicular" with
        the perpandiculars re-routed first (on normal operation, this is the
        reverse).
    - Change: In NegociateWindow::NegociateOverlapCost(), do not account terminals
         if the layer is *above* METAL3 as it is unlikely that it's truly directly
         connected to a terminal (true at least for our designs).
    - Change: In RoutingEvent::State, add a "fullBlocked" flag to perform the
        full blockage direction while building the state object.
    - Change: In RoutingEvent::cacheAxisHint(), when the TrackSegment has parent,
        uses the parent current axis position and not it's axis hint.
    - Change: In Manipulator::insertInTrack(), when the overlapped segment is a
        Local and is completly enclosed (shrinkLeft & shrinkRight), no longer
        rip it up but force a shrink left/right instead. 
    - Bug: In RoutingEvent, the event sorting function was sorting in the *wrong*
        order! The less prioritary first! With the correct sort, we won an
        additionnal 30% in speed (total: 69%). From the "reference" time we have
        a 3.2 speed-up. And we can successfully process denser designs...
2011-01-09 18:08:57 +00:00
Jean-Paul Chaput 0df293655a * ./katabatic:
- New: In GCell, compute a "fragmentation" indice, the average free track
        length, the more fragmented, the smaller the indice.
    - New: In AutoSegment::canMoveUp(), when requested, not only check for free
        (parallel) track in the up layer but also check that the begin/end 
        local segments created to maintain layer connexity do not creates too
        much fragmentation. This fragment could prove critical in higly dense
        GCells.
    - Change: In LayerAssign, disable the ::rpDesaturate() steps, after optimization
        the router can handle 10 terminals per GCells in M2 without problem.
        And ::rpDesaturate() must uses GCell::stepNetDesaturate() and *not*
        directly ::stepDesaturate().
2011-01-09 18:08:31 +00:00
Jean-Paul Chaput e6ac57145f * ./mauka:
- Bug: In GraphicMaukaEngine::doQuadriPart(), performs a quadri-partition
        only if there is more than 4*instanceStopCriterions Cells (trans-
        hierarchically computeds).
2011-01-09 18:26:23 +00:00
Jean-Paul Chaput eb96663040 * ./nimbus:
- Bug: In Grid::Grid(), uses trans-hierarchical iterators to compute the
        sum of "instance width" instead of the "flat" ones.
    - Bug: In Grid::rectangularShape(), uses "minWith" parameter *only* if it's
        different from DbU::Max.

Jean-Paul Chaput 1b6b13cf28 * ./solstice:
- Change: In GraphicSolsticeEngine, uses the new darken mechanism.
2010-12-30 18:42:36 +00:00
Jean-Paul Chaput 3c9d064fd8 * ./Kite:
- New: In BuildPowerRails, special processing for the power ring segments.
        The "diagonal" of vias at each corner is causing a misbehavior of the
        routing algorithm (due to fully saturated GCells in one direction).
        As a temporary fix, extend the segments so they form a "square corner".
        (problem arise on "d_in_i(22)").
    - New: In RoutingEvent::_processNegociate, disable the "isForcedToHint()"
        feature. No noticeable loss of quality or speed.
    - New: In TrackElement/TrackSegment, wraps the AutoSegment parent's mechanism.
        Allows to gets the DataNegociate of either the segment or it's parent.
    - New: State::solveFullBlockages(), dedicated method to solves the case when
        all the allowed tracks of a segment are blocked, tries to moves up
        local segments and to break-up global ones.
    - New: RoutingEventLoop, a more sophisticated way to detect looping.
        Maintain a dynamic histogram of the last N (default 10) segments routeds,
        with the count of how many times they have occurred. If that count
        exeed 40, we *may* be facing a loop.
    - Change: In State::conflictSolve1, implement new policy. The global segments
        no more can be broken by local ones. The idea behind is that breaking
        a global on the request of a local will only produce more cluttering
        in the GCell. Globals must be keep straigth pass through, especially
        inside near-saturated GCells. Globals breaking however can occurs at
        another global's request.
    - Change: In TrackCost, implement the new policy about locals segments that
        cannot break globals segments. The sorting class now accept flags to
        modulate the sorting function. Two options avalaibles: IgnoreAxisWeigth
        (to uses for strap segments) and DiscardGlobals (to uses with locals).
    - Change: In TrackCost, the "distance to fixed" have now an upper bound of
        50 lambdas (no need to be greater because it means it's outside the
        begin & en GCells). Take account not only of fixed segment, but also
        of placed segments which makes bound.
    - Bug: In Track::_check(), while calling each individual TrackSegment check,
        uses it as the *first* argument of the "or", otherwise it may not be
        called.
    - Bug: In ProtectRoutingPad, loop over segment Collections while modificating
        it was producing non-deterministic results. The fact that a collection
        must be not modificated while beeing iterated is becoming a more and more
        painful problem.
2010-12-30 18:42:17 +00:00
Jean-Paul Chaput 8faade8bc6 * ./katabatic:
- New: In AutoSegment, adds a "_parent" attribute to keep track of the fragmentation
        processus. Currently used only for strap segments, points to the original
        segment in the appropriate direction (before the split).
    - New: In GCell & LayerAssign, new method of layer assignment. Move up
        the whole net trunk if only one of it's segment is inside an over-saturated
        GCell. AutoSegment are moved up only if there is at least 2 free tracks
        remaining on the upper level.
    - Change: In Session::_canonize(), uses the lowest segment Id as canonical.
        More reliable than geometricals criterions in the end. Assuming that the
        segments are being created in deterministic order, which *should* be the
        case consediring the way we are walking through the global routing.
    - Change: In AutoSegment, completly suppress the CompareCanonical(), replace
        it by the much simpler CompareId().
    - Change: In GCell::rpDesaturate(), stops desaturation when bottom density
        is under 0.5, otherwise we are causing a severe imbalance in M2/M4
        densities. All wires pushed up to M4...
    - Change: In ChipTools, for the Pad's RoutingPad, reslect the best component
        using the one in the lowest layer. To avoid problem when splitting
        AutoContact as we expect the base Contact to be on the lower layer.
    - Bug: In GCellConfiguration::_GCell_xG_xL1_xL3(), add H/V alignement constraints
        in fork case. This allow NE/SW contact to be splitted correctly later.
    - Bug: In AutoContact::split(), the connexity on the splitted contacts was
        not correctly restored, leading to canonization and parentage looping
        errors. This was concealed by the Kite Track::_check() bug (incomplete
        individual TrackSegment checking).

- Change: In RoutingPad, uses my C++ style. Normalize constructors calls.

        Currently: Biggest Area or Lowest Layer or Highest Layer.

  * ./hurricane/src/viewer:
    - New: In DisplayStyle, darkening is now expressed as a ratio over the HSV
        components of a color. Introduce a new DisplayStyle::HSVr type.
        Allow a more readable darkening effect. All object modicated accordingly.
    - Change: In NetlistWidget, the "Net" section now correctly dimension itself
        on the widest net name. Must suppress all the size Hints in the header
        & data models.
