Critical Issue
Description
The Quartus compilation reports an error in the fitter for SerialLite III IP core simplex source design configured with ECC enabled. You will encounter the following error message:
Error: Argument <clk_object> is an object filter that matches no objects. Specify one matches only one object.
while executing
"get_clock_info -period *seriallite_iii_a10_0|source_clock_gen*user_clock_inst|altera_iopll_inst|outclk0"

(file "sl3_source_ac/seriallite_iii_a10_160/synth/seriallite_iii_streaming.sdc" line 73)
This is due to the following seriallite_iii_streaming.sdc constraints that can only be applied for a duplex design.
if { [get_collection_size [get_clocks -nowarn user_clock_tx]] eq 0 } {
set wclk_period [get_clock_info -period *seriallite_iii_a10_0|source_clock_gen*user_clock_inst|altera_iopll_inst|outclk0]
}
if { [get_collection_size [get_clocks -nowarn *seriallite_iii_a10_0|source_clock_gen*user_clock_inst|altera_iopll_inst|outclk0]] eq 0 } {
set wclk_period [get_clock_info -period user_clock_tx]
}
Resolution
Change "user_clock_tx" to "user_clock". Replace the existing constraints to the following example:
if { [get_collection_size [get_clocks -nowarn user_clock_tx]] eq 1 } {
set wclk_period [get_clock_info -period user_clock_tx]
}
if { [get_collection_size [get_clocks -nowarn *seriallite_iii_a10_0|source_clock_gen*user_clock_inst|altera_iopll_inst|outclk0]] eq 1 } {
set wclk_period [get_clock_info -period *seriallite_iii_a10_0|source_clock_gen*user_clock_inst|altera_iopll_inst|outclk0]
}
if { [get_collection_size [get_clocks -nowarn user_clock]] eq 1 } {
set wclk_period [get_clock_info -period user_clock]
}
This issue will be fixed in a future release.
