PS: отпишитесь кто попробовал - есть знаковые улучшения рантайма/QoR по сравнению с 2018.3 ?

Пока непонятно, но после конвертации проекта с Block Design из 2018.2 в 2019.1 он не собрался, начали лезть ошибки в xml-файлах ядер (BOM).

Пока основная гипотеза, что ему проблема в десятичных разделителях и ему для работы нужен LC_NUMERIC =en_US.UTF-8

После export LC_NUMERIC =en_US.UTF-8 && vivado дело пошло.

По ощущениям работает быстрее, (минимальный проект: синтез дольше/имплементация быстрее) хотя вылеты остались старые (не апдейтил хэдэры, моделирование осталось больным). Всё делаю в интерфейсе.

@makc Вы под Линуксом работаете? Заголовки подписывали?

Да, Debian 9.9 (stretch)

Какие заголовки Вы имеете в виду?

    • Enabled for all UltraScale and UltraScale+ devices.
    • Property-based mechanism available for custom busses and interfaces.
  • Faster physical optimization of high-fanout nets during placement.
  • Automatic SLR crossing register usage is enabled to boost performance and reduce QoR variation
  • Report Methodology runs up to 2 times faster for designs with many timing exceptions.
  • opt_design adds an SRL remap option to convert between SRL shift register primitives and register chains. Allows balancing utilization and performance.
     

• Constraints and Analysis

  • Soft Pblocks: Pblock boundaries can be made soft to allow cells to move as needed to improve performance.
  • SLR Pblocks: Pblock ranges can now be specified using SLRs for much simpler definition.
  • The report_methodology command adds new timing-related methodology checks.
  • Suggestions from report_qor_suggestions (RQS) are now object-based and are automatically applied by implementation flow commands.
  • The report_ram_utilization command is rebuilt to provide more meaningful statistics on sparseness and timing criticality.

  • IBERT GTM: GTM transceivers line rates of 9.8 Gb/s up to 58 Gb/s using PAM4 and NRZ modulations are now supported in IBERT design for GTM and Serial I/O Analyzer. Forward Error Correction (FEC) mode with PAM4 signaling is provided in 160-bit data width mode and internal PRBS patterns (no FEC support for NRZ). In addition,new plotting features are offered for eye slicers, histograms, and signal-to-noise ratio information of different links.
  • Busplot Viewer: Logic Analyzer now offers the Busplot Viewer capability for debugging DSP & RF applications. This allows users to plot different graphs based on the probe values vs. time or samples as well as other probes data. The Viewer lets user to select any signal to use as data for X and Y axis as well as plotting multiple graphs on the same plot.
  • HBM Monitor: New memory debug capability for monitoring HBM design status and performance. Similar to memory calibration debug, the HBM Monitor dashboard will show calibration status and static temperature of HBM memory modules along with various throughput information and monitor activity on different channels.
  • RF Analyzer: The RF Analyzer tool for debugging ZU+ RFSoC devices is now available. The tool is primarily used on user boards to help understand the performance of the board in high frequency applications. The RF Analyzer uses the same basic GUI as the RFSoC Evaluation Tool. While offering many similar features, RF Analyzer is board-independent. Without using specific board implementations information, RF Analyzer relies on BRAM buffers instead ofDDR RAM, requires users to configure an external PLL if the board requires so, and communicates via JTAG between the host PC and the target board.

Quote from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xilinx_Vivado

Vivado HLS testbench error with GCC

Vivado requires an older version of glibc (2.26 as of vivado 2018.1).

The solution proposed in this thread from Xilinx forums suggests to update the fixed headers shipped by Xilinx.

For vivado 2017 and newer, run:

# /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2018.1/lnx64/tools/gcc/libexec/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.6.3/install-tools/mkheaders /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2018.1/lnx64/tools/gcc

 

[makc 192]

Я внутренним симулятором Vivado не пользуюсь, так что ничего определенного на этот счет сказать не могу. Но команда эта (mkheaders) успешно отработала.

[Doka 1]

может подскажет кто:  а где почитать про

• Soft Pblocks: Pblock boundaries can be made soft to allow cells to move as needed to improve performance.

документ по properties пока не обновлён

[rloc 43]

Добавили софт ядра Cortex-M1 и Cortex-M3, подаренные ARM'ом. В качестве компилятора/отладчика можно использовать Keil.

Добрый вечер всем, а скачать с "альтернативного" сайта какого-нибудь можно? Может кто выкладывал уже?

[makc 192]

Уже выложили на местный FTP, можно качать.
