Description

This command creates a NoC Interface. A manually created NoC interface is most commonly used on the module boundary of a DFX region. It is used to break a NoC connnection into two segments, one NoC connection inside the reconfigurable partition to the noc interface, and a second connection from the noc interface in the static region.

Arguments

-mode - Specifies NoC interface mode (NMU or NSU)

-type - (Optional) Specifies NoC interface type (default AXIMM)

-category - (Optional) Specifies NoC interface category (default PL)

<path> - Specifies NoC interface path

-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.
Note: Any errors encountered on the command-line, while launching the command, will be returned. Only errors occurring inside the command will be trapped.
-verbose - (Optional) Temporarily override any message limits and return all messages from this command.
Note: Message limits can be defined with the set_msg_config command.

Example

The following example creates a NoC interface on a reconfigurable module boundary. This command is usually contained in a constraint file that is scoped to the reconfigurable module. The path to the interface name can be at the top-level of the reconfigurable module.

create_noc_interface -mode vnsu my_interface_name

The following example creates a NoC interface in the static portion of a design on the boundary of a reconfigurable partition,also including the path to RM boundary.

create_noc_interface -mode vnsu /path_to_RM_boundary/my_interface_name
Note: For a NoC connection to successfully cross a reconfigutable partition, ensure that the interface name created in the RM and the interface name created in the static region matches.
