* Change: In unicorn/python/unicornInit.py, when iterating over all the
loaded modules, now we have "namespace" that have a __file__
attribute which is set to None. Skip them.
* Change: In stratus1/st_net.py, "is" must be replaced by "==" when
doing string comparison.
* Change: In stratus1/st_parser.py, open file in "rb" mode instead
of "r" (so we get a bytestream as now required by Python).
The CMake version set was so old that obsolete policies were being
enabled and breaking FindPython. 2.8 should still be old enough not to
cause problems for any current users.

* New: Python/C++ API level:
* Write a new C++/template wrapper to get rid of boost::python
* The int & long Python type are now merged. So a C/C++ level,
it became "PyLong_X" (remove "PyInt_X") and at Python code
level, it became "int" (remove "long").
* Change: VLSISAPD finally defunct.
* Configuration is now integrated as a Hurricane component,
makes use of the new C++/template wrapper.
* vlsisapd is now defunct. Keep it in the source for now as
some remaining non essential code may have to be ported in
the future.
* Note: Python code (copy of the migration howto):
* New print function syntax print().
* Changed "dict.has_key(k)" for "k" in dict.
* Changed "except Exception, e" for "except Exception as e".
* The division "/" is now the floating point division, even if
both operand are integers. So 3/2 now gives 1.5 and no longer 1.
The integer division is now "//" : 1 = 3//2. So have to carefully
review the code to update. Most of the time we want to use "//".
We must never change to float for long that, in fact, represents
DbU (exposed as Python int type).
* execfile() must be replaced by exec(open("file").read()).
* iter().__next__() becomes iter(x).__next__().
* __getslice__() has been removed, integrated to __getitem__().
* The formating used for str(type(o)) has changed, so In Stratus,
have to update them ("<class 'MyClass'>" instead of "MyClass").
* the "types" module no longer supply values for default types
like str (types.StringType) or list (types.StringType).
Must use "isinstance()" where they were occuring.
* Remove the 'L' to indicate "long integer" (like "12L"), now
all Python integer are long.
* Change in bootstrap:
* Ported Coriolis builder (ccb) to Python3.
* Ported Coriolis socInstaller.py to Python3.
* Note: In PyQt4+Python3, QVariant no longer exists. Use None or
directly convert using the python syntax: bool(x), int(x), ...
By default, it is a string (str).
* Note: PyQt4 bindings & Python3 under SL7.
* In order to compile user's must upgrade to my own rebuild of
PyQt 4 & 5 bindings 4.19.21-1.el7.soc.
* Bug: In cumulus/plugins.block.htree.HTree.splitNet(), set the root
buffer of the H-Tree to the original signal (mainly: top clock).
Strangely, it was only done when working in full chip mode.
* Change: In documentation/build.py, more PEP8 & Python 3 future compliance.
Correct copy of the tools HTML docs on my laptop, to have a full
offline copy of the doc.
* New: In documentation/contents/pages/check-toolkit, duplicate the doc
from alliance-check-toolkit README. Seems it has been inadvertently
removed at some point (?). Have to be careful to maintain in synch
with the toolkit.
* Change: <tool>/doc/*/SoC.css, use Roboto fonts when availables.
* Update: Commit the whole pre-generated docs (Doxygen, Pelican).
* Change: In documentation, now generate the overall documentation using
Pelican instead of Sphinx. This allows to have an unified approach
between the coriolis.lip6.fr website and the local documentation.
So we keep using "only" two doc generators: doxygen & Pelican.
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.
* New: In bootstrap/coriolisEnv.py, add the "etc" directory to the
PYTHONPATH as initialization are now Python modules.
* New: In Hurricane/analogic, first groundwork for the integration of
PIP/MIM/MOM multi-capacitors. Add C++ and Python interface for the
allocation matrix and the list of capacities values.
* Change: In Hurricane::RegularLayer, add a layer parameter to the
constructor so the association between the RegularLayer and it's
BasicLayer can readily be done.
* Change: In Hurricane::Layer, add a new getCut() accessor to get the
cut layer in ViaLayer.
* Change: In Hurricane::DataBase::get(), the Python wrapper should no
longer consider an error if the data-base has not been created yet.
Just return None.
* Bug: In Isobar::PyLayer::getEnclosure() wrapper, if the overall
enclosure is requested, pass the right parameter to the C++ function.
* Change: In AllianceFramework, make public _bindLibraries() and export
it to the Python interface.
* Change: In AllianceFramework::create(), do not longer call bindLibraries().
This now must be done explicitely and afterwards.
* Change: In AllianceFramework::createLibrary() and
Environement::addSYSTEM_LIBRARY(), minor bug corrections that I don't
recall.
* Change: In SearchPath::prepend(), set the selected index to zero and
return it.
* Change: In CRL::System CTOR, add "etc" to the PYTHONPATH as the
configuration files are now organized as Python modules.
* New: In PyCRL, export the CRL::System singleton, it's creation is no
longer triggered by the one of AllianceFramework.
* New: In CRL/etc/, convert most of the configuration files into the
Python module format. For now, keep the old ".conf", but that are no
longer used.
For the real technologies, we cannot keep the directory name as
"180" or "45" as it not allowed by Python syntax, so we create "node180"
or "node45" instead.
Most of the helpers and coriolisInit.py are no longer used now.
To be removed in future commits after being sure that everything
works...
* Bug: In AutoSegment::makeDogleg(AutoContact*), the layer of the contacts
where badly computed when one end of the original segment was attached
to a non-preferred direction segment (mostly on terminal contacts).
Now use the new AutoContact::updateLayer() method.
* Bug: In Dijkstra::load(), limit symetric search area only if the net
is a symmetric one !
* Change: In Katana/python/katanaInit.py, comply with the new initialisation
scheme.
* Change: In Unicorn/cgt.py, comply to the new inititalization scheme.
* Change: In cumulus various Python scripts remove the call to
helpers.staticInitialization() as they are not needed now (we run in
only *one* interpreter, so we correctly share all init).
In plugins/__init__.py, read the new NDA directory variable.
* Bug: In cumulus/plugins/Chip.doCoronafloorplan(), self.railsNb was not
correctly managed when there was no clock.
* Change: In cumulus/plugins/Configuration.coronaContactArray(), compute
the viaPitch from the technology instead of the hard-coded 4.0 lambdas.
In Configuration.loadConfiguration(), read the "ioring.py" from
the new user's settings module.
* Bug: In stratus.dpgen_ADSB2F, gives coordinates translated into DbU to
the XY functions.
In st_model.Save(), use the VstUseConcat flag to get correct VST files.
In st_net.hur_net(), when a net is POWER/GROUND or CLOCK also make it
global.
* Change: In Oroshi/python/WIP_Transistor.py, encapsulate the generator
inside a try/except block to get prettier error (and stop at the first).
* New: In Isobar::PyCell, export the isRouted() and setRouted() to the
Python interface.
* Bug: In CRL::Entity::parseEntity(), check that the closing parenthesis
is the last character of the net name. Issue a more relevant error
message.
* In Anabatic::NetBuilder::_do_xG() and all other unimplemented methods,
throw an error if called from a derived classes instead of just
issuing a message in the debug stream. Avoid later core dumps...
* In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV, implement the builders for GCells with
one pin. Needed to support chip/corona routing.
* Bug: In Cumulus/plugins/Chip.py, check that coronaCk exists before
using it.
* New: In Cumulus/plugins/PadsCorona/Side._placePad(), when routing
a design with symbolic pads, export the chip external "pad"
connectors to be able to perform a lvx (otherwise cougar do not
create external nets).
In Corona._createCoreWire(), set the minimal gap between the pads
and the corona to 6 pitches. Empirical value to avoid DRC errors
with symbolic pads (pxlib).
When successufully done, mark the Corona cell as routed.
* Bug: In Cumulus/plugins/Core2Chip.IoNet, the regex for vectorizet net
was wrong, it was allowing only one digit in the index.
* Bug: In Cumulus/plugins/Core2Chip.cmos, correct management of
pad & corona clock nets. Correct connexion between vdde/vddi.
* Bug: In Unicorn/cgt.py, forgot to execute scripts when in text mode.
* Bug: In stratus1, all coordinates given to the functions are now
assumed to be in DbU instead of lambda. Designer must convert
himself his coordinates from the unit of his choice into DbU.
See helpers.l(), or helpers.m().
* Change: In all tools supplying documentation, as we use some specific
software to create the doc, they may not be available, or worse, be
and incompatible version. So, by default, we install the files shipped
with the git repository. To force a full doc rebuild, use the "--doc"
flag of ccb.py.
* Change: In Hurricane::Polygon, store the points so they are always
ordered in the counter-clockwise (trigonometric) direction. This
simplicificate internal computations.
* New: In Hurricane::Polygon, added getSubPolygons() methods, that
split horizontally the polygon in sub-polygons of about 1000
vertexes. This is mainly to be used by the GDSII driver to abide
to the XY 4000 points limitation.
* New: In Hurricane::Isobar, export support for Point collections so
the various contour Polygon methods can be created in the Python
interface.
* New: In CRL::GdsDriver, split the Polygons into set of sub-polygons
of less than 1000 vertexes. Use the getSubPolygons() method.
* Change: In stratus1.dpgen_RF2, makes more explicit error messages
about placement by displaying the faulty vs. expected coordinates.
* 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.
* Change: In all top CMakeLists.txt, force the use of Python 2.7 as
we do not compile against 3.x flavors. Do not use the "EXACT"
flags as it will not recognize 2.7.x versions.
* Change: In Katana::RoutingEvent::Key::Compare(), preliminary
experiments shows that the best sorting order is:
- Lower layer first (i.e. M2 -> M3 -> M4 -> ... )
- Longer segments first.
The later seems to be counter-intuitive. Guess is that placing
the small ones first generate a more important fragmentation of
the big ones. They are placed too early and are difficult to move
afterwards.
Another feature to test is *not* inserting pushed left/right
segments if they are not *already* routed.
* Change: In PyKatanaEngine.runNegociate() now takes a flag argument,
provided through the new PyKatanaFlags exported object.
(doChip.py must be changed accordingly)
* Bug: In CRL.python.coriolisInit(), when it's not set, the stratus1.mappingName
configuration variable is equal to "" and *not* "not_set".
* Bug: In Etesian::EtesianEngine::toColoquinte(), followup of the previous
bug, bad FIXED/PLACED test when the AB is set.
* Bug: In CRL::ToolBox::attachPlugOrPin(), simply returns when there is
no plugs/pins to connect instead of doing an assert().
* Change: In Hurricane, more informative trace information for Python
ProxyProperty managment.
* Bug: In Stratus, when merging nets with the "<=" operator some table
of lookup of Hurricane Net are not updated correctly. As I don't
understand well enough the Stratus code **is is not corrected**.
* Bug: In Cumulus & Stratus, now that creation of Hurricane objects must be
enclosed in UpdateSession, has to adds them into Python code.
* Bug: In Anabatic & Katana, in the global routing stage suspend the timed
bewteen ripup steps instead of resetting it.
* Change: In Stratus, in dpgen_RAM, the cell height was fixed to 50l.
Now read the prech[0] to set up the cell height (useful for MOSIS
cells).
* New: In Stratus, in buildModel(), the stand alone generator caller
now support a className, a modelName and a set of parameters to
pass on to the model. This is very useful when the module name
(the file), the class name and the model name are not the same.
* Change: In Knik, in Vertex, add a "blocked" flag to signal disabled
vertexes in the grid (must not be used by the global router).
Modificate the Graph::getVertex() method so that when a vertex
is geometrically queried, if is a blocked one, return a non-blocked
neighbor. This mechanism is introduced to, at last, prevent the
global router to go *under* the pad in case of a commplete chip.
* New: In Katabatic, in AutoSegment, a new state has been added: "reduced".
A reduced segment is in the same layer as it's perpandiculars.
To be reduced, a segments has to be connected on source & target to
AutoContactTurn, both of the perpandiculars must be of the same layer
(below or above) and it's length must not exceed one pitch in the
perpandicular direction.
To reduce an AutoSegment, call ::reduce() and to revert the state,
call ::raise(). Two associated predicates are associated:
::canReduce() and ::mustRaise().
Note: No two adjacent segments can be reduced at the same time.
* Bug: In Katabatic, in GCellTopology, add a new method ::doRp_AccessPad()
to connect to the pads. Create wiring, fixed and non managed by
Katabatic, to connect the pad connector layer to the lowest routing
layers (depth 1 & 2). The former implementation was sometimes leading
to gaps (sheared contact) that *must not* occurs during the building
stage.
Remark: This bug did put under the light the fact that the initial
wiring must be created without gaps. Gaps are closed by making doglegs
on contacts. But this mechanism could only work when the database if
fully initialised (the cache is up to date). Otherwise various problems
arise, in the canonization process for example.
* New: In Katabatic, in AutoContactTerminal::getNativeConstraintBox(),
when anchored on a RoutingPad, now take account the potential rotation
of the Path's transformation. Here again, for the chip's pads.
* New: In Kite, support for reduced AutoSegment. TrackSegment associateds
to reduced AutoSegment are *not* inserted into track to become
effectively invisibles. When a segment becomes reduced, a TrackEvent
is generated to remove it. Conversely when it is raised a RoutingEvent
is created/rescheduled to insert it. All this is mostly managed inside
the Session::revalidate() method.
* New: In Kite, in KiteEngine::createGlobalGraph(), in case of a chip,
mark all global routing vertexes (Knik) that are under a pad, as blockeds.
* Bug: In Cumulus, in PadsCorona.Side.getAxis(), inversion between X and
Y coordinate of the chip size. Did not show until a non-square chip
was routed (i.e. our MIPS R3000).
* Change: In Stratus1, in st_placement.py add the ClockBuffer class for
backward compatibility with the MIPS32 bench. Have to review this
functionnality coming from the deprecated placeAndroute.py.
In st_instance.py, no longer creates the Plug ring of a Net.
In my opinion it just clutter the display until the P&R is called.
Can re-enable later as an option (in Unicorn).
* Change: In Unicorn, in cgt.py, more reliable way of loading then running
user supplied scripts. Borrowed from alliance-checker-toolkit doChip.py .
* New: In Bootstrap, in ccb.py, check if cmake is installed and issue
a warning, if not.
* New: In Hurricane, added Cell::getDeepNet() to search for a deepnet
given a path and a leaf net. This method is slow and must not be
used too often. Introduced for Kite::BuildPowerRails().
* Change: In CRL Core, in cmos/alliance.conf, modify the clock name
pattern to match the sub-clock signals in the datapath operators.
* Bug: In Etesian, do not blindly reset the top cell abutment-box.
Do it only if it's empty, otherwise keep it.
* Bug: In Kite, in buildPowerRails(), in getRootNet() the management
of clock nets was incomplete. The case of unrouted clock nets
that where not connected to the top core clock net, like the
one in the datapath registers was faulty. They were partly
recognized as unrouteds and partly as blockage generating a
routing deadlock: routage impossible due to blockage generated
from itself...
* New: In Stratus1, add a buildModel() utility function to automate
the model generation and allow a call by the model name (string).
* Change: In Unicorn, in cgt.py, display the Alliance environement.
* New: In all to CMakeLists.txt, disable the warning about deprecated
WIN32 under cygwin.
* New: In boostrap, in ccb.py, coriolisEnv.py and builder/Configuration.py
add recognition in uname for the values returned under Windows/Cygwin.
* New: In Documenation, in UsersGuide.rst add some informations about
Cygwin and a section for the devel branch.
* Change: In Isobar, the Python interface was not exactly mirroring the
C++ one, now it is the case. The Python code should look likes almost
exactly like the C++ one, the only differences remaining being due
to the languages respective syntaxes. Note that in the case of
constructor functions, it leads to a slightly longer notation in
Python that it could have been (mimic the ".create()" static
member). Main modifications:
1. Mirror the static constructor syntax with create():
Cell( ... ) ==> Cell.create( ... )
2. Correct hierarchy for constants in Instance, Net, Pin
& Transformation. For example:
Hurricane.PlacementStatusFIXED
==> Hurricane.Instance.PlacementStatus.FIXED
Hurricane.OrientationID
==> Hurricane.Transformation.Orientation.ID
Hurricane.TypeLOGICAL ==> Hurricane.Net.Type.LOGICAL
Hurricane.DirectionIN ==> Hurricane.Net.Direction.IN
* Change: In CRL Core, correction to match the improved Python API
in the configutation helpers.
* Change: In Cumulus, correction to match the improved Python API.
* Change: In Stratus, correction to match the improved Python API.
* Change: In Documenation, update for the new Python interface
(both user's guide & examples).
* Note: We must port those changes into Chams for it to continue
to run.
* Change: In Documenation, update the Python script support part.
When upgrading from doxygen 1.5.x to 1.8.5 the way the documentation
is generated has underwent many changes, particularly in the headers.
* Change: In <header.html>, must include the javascripts <jquery.js>
and <dynsections.js>.
* In <CMakeLists.txt>, as the header is customized, doxygen seems not
copy some files like the javascripts and some images (open.png,
closed.png). So we copy them from doxygen installation and make
the CMakeLists.txt install them. I hope they will not change too
much in the future.
* In <doxyfile>, disable markdown support as it do not interpret
correctly the formating we already adopted (with a left margin
to put command into). Use HTML_EXTRA_STYLESHEET instead of
HTML_STYLESHEET. Enable the index (DISABLE_INDEX=NO), for the
top header. Enable dot for inheritance diagram. Set the
EXAMPLE_PATH=. to include the synthetic hierarchy.
Correct the tag inclusion (faulty path in some places).
* In <SoC.css>, create style for the new header generated by doxygen.
* In the documentation, move the synthetic hierarchy into a module.
Details:
* New: in <bootstrap>: add support for devtoolset-2 in ccb. Run the
cmake commands through 'scl', set shell environment variables
BOOST_INCLUDEDIR & BOOST_LIBRARYDIR and disable the default
system path search.
* Change: In various flex scanners add the %nounput to suppress
compiler warnings.
* Change: Little cleanup for g++ 4.8.1 as it's more strict.
* Change: In various top CMakeLists.txt, suppress extraneous '/'
after DESTDIR.
Project hierarchy reorganisation:
* With svn, we were doing a tool by tool checkout, suppressing the
whole repository hierarchy level.
* The tools were also grouped, inside one repository, into multiple
projects (<bootstrap>, <vlsisapd>, <coriolis>).
* We do not want to split up each tool into a separate repository,
given their tight integration (except for vlsisapd).
* We choose to simplify, and consider all tools in a svn repository
one project. Due to the way Git clone repositories, the directory
containing the project is now to be seen under "src/".
CMake modifications:
* Now that the <vlsisapd> and <bootstrap> projects are merged into
coriolis, modificate the top CMakeLists.txt of each tool to uses
only Coriolis (and bootstrap hard wired).
CCB compile script modifications:
* Uses the new source tree hierarchy, with the project directory
inserted.
* Remove (comment) all parts relateds to svn managment.
* Git is sufficiently simple so that we do not want to integrate
command shortcut into the script.
SVN cleanup:
* Remove the obsolete <chamsin> tool, that has become the full fledged
<chams> project long time ago.
