Kintex-7 B210 Vivado build

This directory recreates the clone's Vivado project from the canonical source files stored in Git. The generated .xpr, .srcs, .runs, .gen, IP output products, reports, and bitstreams live under build/ and are disposable.

Historical baseline

At the clone-vivado-2024.1 point in history, sources.tcl intentionally matches the original Vivado 2024.1 project source set exactly. In particular it contains:

lib/sim/fifo/axi_fifo_2clk_sim.v

as a synthesis source because that is what the original clone project used. Do not "clean up" that line in the historical baseline commit. The FIFO repair should be a later Git commit that replaces it with the hardware FIFO/XPM implementation, making the bug and fix visible in history.

Files

• project_config.tcl -- part, top, expected Vivado version, default jobs.
• sources.tcl -- explicit source manifest; no recursive globs.
• create_project.tcl -- creates a disposable Project-Mode Vivado project.
• build.tcl -- full OOC-IP/synthesis/implementation/bitstream build.
• reports.tcl -- timing, route, bus-skew, CDC, methodology, utilization, power, and operating-condition reports.
• ip/b200_clk_gen/b200_clk_gen.xci -- version-controlled clock-wizard customization. It is imported into the generated project so the canonical XCI is never modified by a build.

Check the manifest

Before starting Vivado:

cd vivado/b210_k7
make check

For the reconstructed 2024.1 baseline this should report 99 entries and zero missing files. The count is expected to change in later commits when the FIFO/XPM sources are added.

Build

For the historical baseline, use Vivado 2024.1:

cd vivado/b210_k7
make build JOBS=8

Equivalent direct command:

B210_JOBS=8 vivado -mode batch -source vivado/b210_k7/build.tcl

Build products are written to:

build/images/usrp_b210_fpga.bit
build/images/usrp_b210_fpga.bin
build/reports/*.rpt
build/vivado/B210_Project_Firmwire/...

The .bin file is the raw image suitable for UHD's usrp_b210_fpga.bin.

Intentional Vivado migration

project_config.tcl rejects a different Vivado version by default. During an explicit migration you can temporarily run:

B210_ALLOW_VIVADO_MISMATCH=1 vivado -mode batch     -source vivado/b210_k7/create_project.tcl

Once the migration is validated, change B210_EXPECTED_VIVADO in project_config.tcl in the migration commit (for example from 2024.1 to 2026.1).

Source-control rule

Edit files under lib/, top/, and vivado/b210_k7/. Never edit a copy under build/. If deleting build/ prevents a clean rebuild from a fresh checkout, then a required source is missing from Git or from sources.tcl.
