* generic: Refactor for faster performancegatecat2021-12-301-14/+21
| | | | | | | | This won't affect Python-built arches significantly; but will be useful for the future 'viaduct' functionality where generic routing graphs can be built on the C++ side; too. Signed-off-by: gatecat <gatecat@ds0.me>

* archapi: Use arbitrary rather than actual placement in predictDelaygatecat2021-12-192-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | This makes predictDelay be based on an arbitrary belpin pair rather than a arc of a net based on cell placement. This way 'what-if' decisions can be evaluated without actually changing placement; potentially useful for parallel placement. A new helper predictArcDelay behaves like the old predictDelay to minimise the impact on existing passes; only arches need be updated. Signed-off-by: gatecat <gatecat@ds0.me>

* Add "checkPipAvailForNet" to Arch API.Keith Rothman2021-03-221-0/+7
| | | | | | | | This is important for distiguishing valid pseudo pips in the FPGA interchange arch. This also avoids a double or triple lookup of pip->net map. Signed-off-by: Keith Rothman <537074+litghost@users.noreply.github.com>

* Replace DelayInfo with DelayPair/DelayQuadgatecat2021-02-191-20/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the arch-specific DelayInfo structure with new DelayPair (min/max only) and DelayQuad (min/max for both rise and fall) structures that form part of common code. This further reduces the amount of arch-specific code; and also provides useful data structures for timing analysis which will need to delay with pairs/quads of delays as it is improved. While there may be a small performance cost to arches that didn't separate the rise/fall cases (arches that aren't currently separating the min/max cases just need to be fixed...) in DelayInfo, my expectation is that inlining will mean this doesn't make much difference.

* Remove isValidBelForCellgatecat2021-02-162-13/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This Arch API dates from when we were first working out how to implement placement validity checking, and in practice is little used by the core parts of placer1/HeAP and the Arch implementation involves a lot of duplication with isBelLocationValid. In the short term; placement validity checking is better served by the combination of checkBelAvail and isValidBelForCellType before placement; followed by isBelLocationValid after placement (potentially after moving/swapping multiple cells). Longer term, removing this API makes things a bit cleaner for a new validity checking API. Signed-off-by: gatecat <gatecat@ds0.me>

| * Add getBelPinsForCellPin to Arch APIgatecat2021-02-101-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a basic implementation, without considering "M of N" arrangements (e.g. for LUT permuation where you only want to route to 1 out of 4/6 sinks) or using a type other than IdString to identify bel pins. But this is also enough to start working out where in nextpnr will break due to removing the 1:1 cell:bel pin cardinality, as a next step. Signed-off-by: gatecat <gatecat@ds0.me>
