dontTouch

object dontTouch

Marks that a signal should not be removed by Chisel and Firrtl optimization passes

Source
dontTouch.scala
Example: 

  1. class MyModule extends Module {
  val io = IO(new Bundle {
    val a = Input(UInt(32.W))
    val b = Output(UInt(32.W))
  })
  io.b := io.a
  val dead = io.a +% 1.U // normally dead would be pruned by DCE
  dontTouch(dead) // Marking it as such will preserve it
}
Note

Calling this on Data creates an annotation that Chisel emits to a separate annotations file. This file must be passed to FIRRTL independently of the .fir file. The execute methods in chisel3.Driver will pass the annotations to FIRRTL automatically.
