1.5i XC4000X* Map/PAR - ERROR:x4kpl:368 - RPM "l***" contains a partial carry logic chain. This is not supported in the current release.


Record #5146

Product Family: Software

Product Line: FPGA Implementation

Product Part: par

Product Version: 1.5i

Problem Title:

1.5i XC4000X* Map/PAR - ERROR:x4kpl:368 - RPM "l***" contains a partial carry logic chain. This is not supported in the current release.



Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description:
  The following error in par is a result from map removing portions of the carry chain.
ERROR:x4kpl:368 - RPM "linear_keyer_mult4_multiplier/hset" contains a partial
    carry logic chain. This is not supported in the current release. Carry
    logic chains must either be fully contained in the RPM or not in an RPM at
    all. The carry logic chain is broken at CLB "logo_insert_chroma_y2<2>" and
    is driven by CLB "logo_insert_chroma_y2<0>" which is not contained in this
    RPM.
    Please fix this problem before continuing.

Solution 1:

This problem is related to the fact that Express does not RLOC carry chains
for 4K devices. A fix to Express is expected to fix this.
