* Bug: In CRL/etc/symbolic/cmos/plugins.conf, rails dimensions are no
longer expressed directly in lambda. Must be created using helper.l().
* Change: In CRL::ApParser, slightly more smart management of Pin width.
Must normalize Pin behavior between Alliance & Hurricane as in
Alliance they have only one dimension.
* Change: In CRL::LefImport, if a net name end with "!", assume it's a
global one. Have to check this naming convention.
* Change: In Anabatic::NetBuilderHV::_do_1G_1PinM3() & _do_1G_1PinM2()
now implemented. Needed for the corona routing support.
* Change: In AnabaticEngine::setupPreRouted(), exclude segments outside
the abutment box.
* Change: In KatanaEngine::PowerRails, remove the I/O pad support as now
we route only inside the Corona. So only one vdd/vss/ck are supported.
* New: In cumulus/plugins/ChipPlugin.py, complete rewrite of the chip
support:
* Uncouple pad I/O ring whith real cells (foundry) from a symbolic
core. A new intermediate level "corona" is introduced to handle
the real/symbolic transition.
* Ability to explicitly setup position of the pads on the chip side
in case of uneven distribution.
* Enable clock tree to be build with 3 metal only (M2 to M4) instead
of (M2 to M5).
* New: Hurricane::DataBase::getCell() method to search a cell through
all the libraries of *all* the frameworks, not just Alliance.
Also exported in Python interface.
* Bug: In Technology::getNthMetal() the function was not returning the
right metal, there was an offset of one. And when the offset was
0, no metal was even returned. Same fix goes for getNthCut().
The fault was in Mask<>::nthbit().
* Change: In Hurricane::CellWidget, the initial window size is too tiny.
Increase the size from 250 to 500 pixels.
