Description

"opt_design" can fail with error messages similar to the following:

opt_design failed
ERROR: [Chipscope 16-119] Implementing debug core dbg_hub failed.
ERROR: An unknown error has occurred while implementing debug cores in this design.

OR

ERROR: [IP_Flow 19-3805] Failed to generate and synthesize debug IP "xilinx.com:ip:xsdbm:1.0".

Solution

When generating the Debug Cores during Phase 1, the following messages are shown:

Phase 1 Generate And Synthesize Debug Cores
INFO: [IP_Flow 19-234] Refreshing IP repositories
INFO: [IP_Flow 19-1704] No user IP repositories specified
INFO: [IP_Flow 19-2313] Loaded Vivado IP repository 'C:/Xilinx/Vivado/2014.2/data/ip'.
INFO: [IP_Flow 19-3826] Re-using generated and synthesized IP, "xilinx.com:ip:labtools_xsdb_master_lib:3.0", from Vivado Debug IP cache, "C:/Projects//project_1/project_1.cache/2aa2f6b8".

The Debug Hub in cache is out-of-sync and needs to be cleared with the following command:

Vivado 2014.x:

update_ip_catalog -clear_ip_cache

 

Vivado 2015.1 and newer:

check_ip_cache -clear_output_repo

 

When this issue occurs on a Windows machine, the root cause is often a failed generation of the Debug Hub due to a path length issue.

Windows only supports 260 characters in a path.

The Debug Hub is generated in a temporary folder and can violate this path length limitation.

The recommendation is to reduce path length and regenerate the Debug Hub
