Marking a cell as a partition requires an HD.PARTITION cell property. Setting HD.PARTITION does these things.

  • Sets DONT_TOUCH on the specified cell to prevent illegal optimization across and on the HD boundary
  • Triggers HD-specific DRCs
  • Enables special code in read_checkpoint -cell to clean up PartPins and remove redundant Pblocks
