Description
Create one or more user-defined QoR rule decks which are used for grouping QoR checks
use when running report_qor_suggestions or
report_qor_assessment.
A QoR rule deck object is a vehicle to create a group of QoR rule checks. The rule
decks only contain QoR checks with the same TYPE property. When
grouped for convenience, it allows a single point of reference for multiple checks.
The tool provides a set of factory predefined rule decks.
Use the get_qor_ruledecks command to return a list of the currently
defined rule decks. If the rule decks created by this command are empty and does not
contain any checks, add QoR checks to the rule deck using the
add_qor_checks command.
For any mistake, you can delete the existing rule deck using
delete_qor_ruledeck command. You cannot remove QoR checks from
a ruledeck. To get a list of design rule checks that are available to include in the
ruledeck, use the get_qor_checks command. In a rule deck, use the
following command to generate the suggestions and assessments:
report_qor_suggestions -ruledecks [list <suggestion_rule_deck_name>]
report_qor_assessment -ruledecks [list <assessment_rule_deck_name>]Arguments
<ruledecks> - Specifies a list containing the names of the rule
decks to create.
-type - (Optional) Specifies the type of ruledecks to create. Valid
values are either "suggestion" or "assessment." The default value is "suggestion",
and the command only returns rule decks of the suggestion type.
-type assessment switch.Examples
The following shows an example of registering a new suggestion called
RQS_NETLIST_AMD-1. It takes proc called
unroll_srl_to_input which is inside file
unroll_srl_to_input.tcl. It sets the applicable for value to
opt_design, adds a description, and a summary and adds the
suggestion to the Netlist category.
source unroll_srl_to_input.tcl
set af [list opt_design]
set cat Netlist
set desc "Unroll SRL inputs when driving by a LUT"
create_qor_check -name RQS_NETLIST_AMD-1 -rule_body unroll_srl_to_input -property_values [list APPLICABLE_FOR $af CATEGORY $cat DESCRIPTION $desc]The following example shows that with check created, it is ready to add to the rule
deck. First a rule deck named AMD_Netlist_OptDesign is created,
then the check named RQS_NETLIST_AMD-1 is added.
create_qor_ruledeck -type suggestion AMD_Netlist_OptDesign
add_qor_check -ruledeck AMD_Netlist_OptDesign RQS_NETLIST_AMD-1The following example verifies the inclusion of the check in the rule deck:
get_qor_checks -of [get_qor_ruledecks AMD_Netlist_OptDesign]
