nimhHi Yura, I just got started too.  Do you have any of the devel boards?09:39
nimhah - missed them...09:40
bl0x_Question: what's the general status/interest of supporting older xilinx devices such as Spartan 6 with the open toolchain? Symbiotic EDA mentions experimental support in their web page, but no details. 11:21
bl0x_Is there a project similar to prjxray that is not easily discoverable?11:22
marzoulbl0x_ : it should be relatively straightforward to add spartan6, given that the first spartan7 chip was just added recently. You could look into the commit and try adapting it to spartan6 perhaps11:58
marzoulexcept... is spartan6 sill supported by vivado2017.2 ? Because the DB generation scripts are locked to that version for technical reasons11:59
nimhwhen I'm trying to create model.xml and pb_type.xml is this the right thing to do:12:00
nimh<pb_type name="DSP48E1" blif_model=".subckt DSP48E1_VPR" num_pb="1">12:00
nimh  <model name="DSP48E1_VPR">12:01
cr1901Spartan 6 is mostly ISE12:01
nimhthe pb_type .subckt is the model name in model.xml?12:01
cr1901bl0x_: Spartan 3 and 6 are being done by someone (not me). It's not a public project, but I know someone is working on it12:01
cr1901Sorry that my source is "just trust me" :P12:01
tntmostly ? It's only ISE AFAIK.12:02
cr1901There's some weird Windows 10-only version of Vivado for S6 devices12:04
cr1901And _only_ S6 devices ._.12:04
tnt?!? Got a link to that, I've never seen it.12:06
cr1901Oh... it doesn't exist. Because it's ISE... whoops :D https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/sw_manuals/xilinx14_7/ug1227-spartan6-vm-windows10.pdf12:07
nimhalso, I see there are fasm_params, and they look like they map to synthesis attributes, but where do I find which fasm_params exist?12:13

bl0x_cr1901: thanks, that means any effort spent on it would be doubled at the moment. Is there a chance the project will be made public in the future? I take it there are commercial reasons to keep it closed for now?15:09
