TMC-20204: Setup-Failing Path Endpoints with Retiming Restrictions

Violations of this rule identify endpoints of setup failing paths with retiming restrictions. A setup failing path might not be fully optimized by the retimer if either of the endpoints have a retiming restriction.

Recommendation

Consider removing these retiming restrictions to allow retiming optimizations to improve performance. See Retiming Restrictions and Workarounds - Section 5 for more information. Also see the Fast Forward Timing Closure Recommendations report for step-by-step suggestions for RTL changes and estimated performance.

Parameters

maximum_setup_slack: A violation is reported for timing paths that have a setup slack below the value of this parameter.
