Problem Title:
M1.4 Map - 5200: Map is not trimming global reset signals
Problem Description:
For the Synopsys Verilog flow, the current methodology for Verilog design creation is to connect all
register reset/preset signals to both the registers and STARTUP block so that functional simulation
of the reset may be performed. Upon implementation, Map should trim this signal connected to the S
TARTUP block however is not. This redundant routing is obviously not desired.
For more details see CR_README in the data directory.
Solution 1:
A fix for this problem is included in the current M1.4 Core
