Automatic RTL coding correction Linting tool for critical issues

摘要

This paper posits an automatic handling to some of the most common RTL critical issues in the verification process. In this paper, we propose an automatic linting tool to handle some causes of intentional latches generated in the synthesis process and clock gating timing violation. Therefore, no need to waste verification time to dive through long codes to handle them manually. The proposed tool has been implemented using python to speed up the linting process with easy GUI. Finally, it has been tested on OpenCore certificated projects source codes.
