When I have ChipScope Cores in my design, I see the Design Rule Errors with the CONTROL bus in FPGA Editor or Bitgen.

FPGA Editor
WARNING:PhysDesignRules:10 - The network <CONTROL<2>> is completely unrouted.

Bitgen
ERROR:PhysDesignRules:10 - The network <CONTROL<2>> is completely unrouted.

How do I work around this issue?

Solution

This is related to how XST handles the Bidirectional CONTROL bus. To work around this issue, use the following Implementation options:

XST
-keep_hierarchy No
-read_cores No

NGDBUILD
Remove the -insert_keep_hierarchy option.
