@Vijayan Krishnan, @Matt Venn, my precheck fails with XOR check ("[WARNING] - {{XOR CHECK FAILED}} The GDS file has non-conforming geometries"). Attaching the log file. Could you please help? Here, is the link for my repo. https://github.com/Janavind/caravel_180 . Thanks in advance!

The XOR results are in the gds file

/opt/caravel_180/precheck_results/03_DEC_2022___09_10_14/outputs/user_project_wrapper.xor.gds

.

You’re also getting (non-fatal) SPDX errors for extraneous files in your repo. I suggest adding these files to

.gitignore

venv
dependencies
runs

@Mitch Bailey, thanks for the response! I see XOR differences with Metal 2 and Metal 3 layers. How do I correct them? Could you please suggest a way? Thanks

If this is an analog design and you manually routed the layers, make sure they match in the XOR region.

No, this is a digital design and I just hardened the macros. I haven't done any manual placements in my design. What could be a better way to resolve 900+ errors?

Looks like other people are getting the same errors. Someone involved with 180 will have to check that the golden wrapper pin placements match what openlane produces. @jeffdi who’s in charge of that?

Thank you@Mitch Bailey, I will wait until someone takes a look at this.

@Janani Aravind Is really your user_proj_example macro does need

set ::env(DIE_AREA) "0 0 2900 3000"

.? user_project_wrapper fixed size is

set ::env(DIE_AREA) "0 0 2980.2 2980.2"

. So please re-harden your user_proj_example macro less than wrapper size and place it. That's why you're getting

("[WARNING] - {{XOR CHECK FAILED}} The GDS file has non-conforming geometries").
