The syn.vivado
commands configure
the Vivado synthesis and implementation runs used to derive
resource utilization and timing estimates. These settings generally do not affect
the RTL created for the HLS component, but can affect the example hardware design
used for estimates.
- vivado.clock
-
Override the HLS clock constraint used in the Vivado out-of-context run for determination of timing analysis. This does not affect the output IP or XO files.
vivado.clock=37
- vivado.flow
-
Run the Vivado flow for synthesis only (
syn
), or for implementation (impl
). Running synthesis will be faster than running implementation, but will lack some of details of the implementation run. The default setting isimpl
.vivado.flow=syn
Tip: This is different from theflow_target
option that defines the target as being either the Vitis kernel flow or the Vivado IP flow. - vivado.impl_strategy
-
Specify a Vivado synthesis or implementation strategy. Strategy names can be found in Defining Implementation Strategies in the Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Implementation (UG904). This is used for resource usage and timing analysis and will not affect the output files.
vivado.impl_strategy=Performance_Explore
- vivado.max_timing_paths
-
Specify the max number of timing paths to report when the timing is not met in the Vivado synthesis or implementation.
vivado.max_timing_paths=12
- vivado.optimization_level
-
Vivado optimization level, sets other
vivado_*
options. This will not apply to IP/XO output. The choices are 0, 1, 2, 3. This only applies for report generation and will not apply to the exported IP. The default setting is 0.vivado.optimization_level=2
- vivado.pblock
-
Specify a Pblock range to use during implementation for reporting purposes.
vivado.pblock={SLICE_X8Y105:SLICE_X23Y149}
- vivado.phys_opt
-
Run Vivado physical optimization at the specified implementation stage. The choices are no optimization (
none
), placement optimization (place
), routing optimization (route
), or both placement and routing (all
). This option only applies to the implementation run used to generate resource and timing estimates.vivado.phys_opt=route
- vivado.report_level
-
Specify the report level for Vivado synthesis and implementation run. The valid values and the associated reports are:
- 0: Post-synthesis utilization. Post-implementation utilization and timing.
- 1: Post-synthesis utilization, timing, and analysis. Post-implementation utilization, timing, and analysis.
- 2: Post-synthesis utilization, timing, analysis, and failfast. Post-implementation utilization, timing, and failfast. This is the default setting.
vivado.report_level=1
- vivado.rtl
-
Specifies RTL language (
verilog
/vhdl
) to select in Vivado flow.vivado.rtl=vhdl
- vivado.synth_design_args
-
Specifies arguments for the Vivado
synth_design
command. Availablesynth_design
arguments can be found in the Vivado Design Suite Tcl Command Reference Guide (UG835).vivado.synth_design_args=arg1 arg2
- vivado.synth_strategy
-
Specifies a Vivado synthesis strategy to use when generating the example design to use for resource and timing estimates. Specific synthesis strategies can be found in Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Synthesis (UG901).
