[partial-reconfig] PR for PLBv46 Compliant Peripherals



Hey,
 
I've gone through the Xilinx design labs for ML401 board OPB_hwicap. I have some questions related to lab 4.
 
1) What is the purpose of opb_socket_bridge and opb_prr cores?
2) At what part of the design phase do I have to use the bus macros?
 
Additionally, I plan on designing almost same kind of system but with PLBv46 compliant peripherals. A friend would design these cores using system generator. If anyone has performed partial reconfiguration of PLBv46 compliant peripherals using the xps_hwicap core then his/her guidance would be of great help and highly appreciated. And I know it's a lot to ask, but could anyone please give me (or guide me to design) the cores that work with this bus interface and perform the same functionality as the opb_prr and opb_socket_bridge cores did in lab 4? I understand that I'll have to use the plb2dcr_bridge in place of opb3dcr_bridge in my design.
 
Alternatively, if everything else fails, I plan to design opb compliant peripherals by appending the HDL code from the system generator in my cores. =(
 
Any guidance would make yours truly tearful with gratitude. =)
 
Regards,
M.Omer
