Known Issues in v1.1
- The dates in the Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop User Guide are incorrect. They should read "2006" instead of "2005".
- Memory collisions occur during speed switch in the demonstration testbench. For more information on these errors, see (Xilinx Answer 22665).
- Verilog timing simulation causes timing errors at the beginning of the simulation. For more information on these errors, see (Xilinx Answer 22666).
- Setup/hold errors in the DCM_STANDBY macro are occasionally reported in timing simulation. For more information on these timing violations, see (Xilinx Answer 22667).
- The ucf constraint for the refclk_init period is generated with the wrong period for the Virtex-4 1/2G Core. For more information on correcting this, see (Xilinx Answer 22789).
-The example design currently uses the Virtex-4 v1.2.1 calibration block for CES2/3. To get the latest calibration block v1.2.2 for CES2/3, or to migrate to the v1.4.1 calibration block (CES4 requirement), see (Xilinx Answer 22477).
