Description
The Partial Reconfiguration flow lets you create Partition Definitions (partitionDefs) from hierarchical cells in a design, and to specify reconfigurable modules (RMs) to be assigned to these partitionDefs to create a unique configurations of the design based on the combination of the core design and one or more RMs. The PR design flow requires the implementation of each PR configuration, resulting in partial bitstreams for the RMs, but complete bitstreams for each integrated configuration. Refer to the Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Dynamic Function eXchange (UG909) for more information.
The create_partition_def command defines a partitionDef object in a PR project from a specified hierarchical cell. The partitionDef defines a partition hierarchy that RMs can be assigned to for a specific PR configuration.
This command returns the name of the newly created partitionDef, or returns an error if the command fails.
Arguments
-name <arg> - (Required) The name to assign to the new partitionDef.
-module <arg> - (Required) The name of the hierarchical cell or module in the current project that defines the partitionDef. The hierarchical cell can be specified by name. The module specifies the hierarchical boundary of the partition definition. Reconfigurable modules (RMs) will be defined to fit within the hierarchical boundary of the partitionDef.
-library <arg> - (Optional) Specifies the library name to assign to the partitionDef. If no library is specified, the xil_defaultlib is used.
-quiet - (Optional) Execute the command quietly, returning no messages from the command. The command also returns TCL_OK regardless of any errors encountered during execution.
-verbose - (Optional) Temporarily override any message limits and return all messages from this command.
