* 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: 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).
* New: In Katana::SegmentFsm, the object is now able to handle two events
at the same time. The master and it's symmetric. When there is no
symmetric, the corresponing data is just left blank. This makes a
bigger object, but as there is only one when running, it is not an
issue.
Candidates tracks are now an vector of array<2> (pairs), the
TrackCost::Compare() functor has to be wrapped through CompareCostArray.
The compined TrackCost of the two tracks is accumulated into the first
element.
Everything related to events gets duplicated: _event is now _event1
and _event2, and so on.
As there can be now two Manipulator actions done with SegmentFsm,
this class now completly hide the Manipulator level from the
RoutingEvent processing.
New function ::bindToTrack() to perform the track insertion.
* New: In Katana::TrackCost, add a new ::merge() function.
* New: In Katana::TrackElement and Katana::TrackSegment, add symmetric
management. Allows to know if a TrackElement has a symmetric and to
access it.
* New: In Katana::DataSymmetric, add new overload for ::getSymmetrical()
to handle DbU::Unit and intervals.
* Change: In Katana::RoutingEvent, remove all direct uses of Manipulator
objects. Now any change to the event associated segment must go through
call to Segment Fsm.
* Change: In Katana, adjust the debug level so internal informations are
put below level 156.
* New: In Hurricane::DbU, in ::getValueString(), special display when the
value is Min or Max (more helpful than a gigantic number).
* Change: In Hurricane::BaseFlags, store flags in uint64_t instead of
unsigned int because we start to need more than 32 different flags
in some tools.
* New: In ::getString() & ::getRecord() templates, add support for
std::array<>.
* Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for timer (time & memory
measurements) displaced from Katabatic. This way all ToolEngine
can use this feature. The _postCreate() method display the
memory just after ToolEngine allocation.
* Change: In Etesian::EtesianEngine, make use of the ToolEngine
builtin timer (remove the local one). Forgot to call the base
class _postCreate() and _preDestroy().
* Change: In Anabatic::AnabaticEngine, make use of the ToolEngine
builtin timer (remove the local one).
* New: In Anabatic, new AutoSegments_Connecteds() collection. This
Collection allows a deterministic walkthough *all* the AutoSegments
connected either to source or target of one AutoSegment.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoContactTerminal::isEndPoint() to check if an
AutoContactTerminal is the *only one* anchored on a RoutingPad,
thus being a true "end point" and not a kind of feed-through.
* New: In Katana::KatanaEngine, added support for symmetric nets.
Created new class DataSymmetric to store symmetric information
of a net (mainly the paired AutoSegments).
Added KatanaEngine::runSymmetricRouter(), for now only build
the DataSymmetric informations. More to come...
* Change: In Katana::GraphicKatanaEngine::_runTest(), now perform
symmetric information building the non-symmetric routing.
