False path exceptions can be added to timing paths to ignore slack computation on these paths. It is usually difficult to prove that a path does not need timing to be functional, even with simulation tools. Xilinx does not usually recommend using a false path unless the risk associated with it has been properly assessed and appear to be acceptable.
