Mode contract

from the prompt of call 3 (editor)

Verbatim, as the agents received it: taken from the prompt of call 3 (editor), where the contract is embedded in full. This run predates the separate contract field in the record.

Hard-block primitive to instantiate: `int_sop_4`   (precision INT9)
  computes: out = ax*ay + bx*by + cx*cy + dx*dy
  input ports:  clk[1] (clock), reset[1], mode_sigs[12], ax[9], ay[9], bx[9], by[9], cx[9], cy[9], dx[9], dy[9], chainin[64]
  output ports: result[64], chainout[64]
  timing: `result` is registered inside the block on `clk`; it is valid 1 cycle after the input operands are applied.
  Wire EVERY operand of the fused region onto the input ports (name them exactly as above); drive the region's real consumer from the output port. Tie unused term ports to 0. Do not leave input ports unconnected.

Pick the most REPRESENTATIVE mapping — arithmetic a real designer of THIS workload would actually
map to 'sop_4_mode', never fabricated computation. For a sum-of-products / MAC mode you must
find product terms that ALREADY feed a COMMON reduction (a shared sum/accumulator); products that
feed SEPARATE outputs (e.g. distinct systolic-array elements) must NOT be fused. An isolated scalar
multiply is NOT a representative sum-of-products target. If nothing representative exists, output
TIER: NONE.

Classify the tier of the change you propose (a datatype/algorithm variant, T3, is out of scope —
do not propose one):

  • T1: Direct replacement: no change to the computed function or surrounding structure; no datatype change.
  • T2: Local restructuring only; preserve the region's function, role, and live consumers; no new operation/datatype family.

Read the source. Output EXACTLY this header (uppercase keys), then the plan:

TIER: T1 | T2 | NONE
REGIONS: <comma-separated region id(s)> # one id for a direct swap; N ids for a fusion
SHARED_REDUCTION: <the signal/module the terms feed> # or NONE for a single region
MAPPING: <which operands map to which of the mode's ports>
PLAN: <how the module's live inputs/outputs and downstream consumers are preserved; any introduced
operations/datatypes (should be NONE for T1/T2); and the main risks>

I'll start by examining the source file around the candidate regions.

I've read the source. Here's my analysis and plan.

Findings

bilinearintrp (lines 2762–2887) is the barycentric color interpolator. Per color channel it computes three products that are registered and then reduced by a single shared adder:

verilog
i1r <= ul * rul ;   i2r <= vl * rvl ;   i3r <= wl * rwl ;   // 8b x 7b -> 15b
assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r) ;                              // shared reduction -> r[6:0]
  • ul/vl/wl are reg[7:0] (0..255) and rul/rvl/rwl are reg[6:0] (0..127) — both fit exactly in signed INT9 when zero-extended. Products are exact in 15 bits.
  • Latency matches the hard block exactly: today the products register on clk and the adder is combinational, so r settles one cycle after the operand registers. int_sop_4 registers result on clk, valid 1 cycle after operands — identical.
  • i1r/i2r/i3r have no other consumers (verified by search); rblrtemp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14], a live output.

Rejected: matmult (lines 335–350). Its 16-bit operands exceed INT9, and each row sums pre-truncated products (am11[30:15] + ...), so fusing into a full-precision SOP changes the computed value. Cx/Cy/Cz are also three separate reductions.

Not fused: the g and b channels (2877–2882) feed separate reductions (g, b) and must stay independent.


TIER: T2
REGIONS: bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2874$348, bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2875$349, bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2876$350
SHARED_REDUCTION: assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r) in module bilinearintrp — the 7-bit red-channel output r, which drives blr in resultwriter and is packed into temp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14]
MAPPING:

clk       <- clk                       // module's only clock
reset     <- 1'b0                      // bilinearintrp has no reset port; hold inactive
mode_sigs <- sop_4_mode encoding (constant)
ax        <- {1'b0, ul}       (8b unsigned -> 9b)   ay <- {2'b00, rul}   // term 1: ul*rul  (was i1r)
bx        <- {1'b0, vl}                             by <- {2'b00, rvl}   // term 2: vl*rvl  (was i2r)
cx        <- {1'b0, wl}                             cy <- {2'b00, rwl}   // term 3: wl*rwl  (was i3r)
dx        <- 9'd0                                   dy <- 9'd0           // 4th term unused, tied 0
chainin   <- 64'd0                                                       // no cascade
result    -> assign r = result[6:0];                                     // real consumer
chainout  -> left unused (declared wire, no load)

PLAN:

  1. Instantiate one int_sop_4 inside bilinearintrp, fed directly from the existing ul/vl/wl and rul/rvl/rwl registers (which stay — they are also used elsewhere, e.g. ul feeds the texture address path, and wl <= 8'hFF - u - v is a real pipeline stage).
  2. Delete the now-dead reg[14:0] i1r, i2r, i3r declarations and their three assignments in the always @(posedge clk) block; replace assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r); with assign r = result[6:0];.
  3. Everything else is untouched: the module port list, the selectuv mux, the g and b channels (their own products and reductions remain in RTL), and all downstream consumers of r/blr.
  4. Introduced operations/datatypes: NONE. Same unsigned integer multiply-accumulate, same operand values, same latency, same output width.

Risks / correctness notes:

  • Truncation equivalence. Today the sum is evaluated in 15-bit context (max exact sum is 3·255·127 = 97155, which wraps mod 2^15) and then truncated to r[6:0]. Wrapping at bit 15 cannot disturb bits [6:0], so r is exactly exact_sum[6:0] — matching result[6:0] from a 64-bit accumulator. Safe, but this is the one thing to re-verify in simulation.
  • Signedness. int_sop_4 is INT9 (signed −256..255). All operands are zero-extended non-negative values, so products and the sum are positive and the signed/unsigned distinction is immaterial. Must not sign-extend ul (bit 7 set for values ≥128 would become negative).
  • Reset tie-off. The module has no reset; tying reset to 1'b0 means result is never cleared — matching current behavior, where i1r/i2r/i3r also have no reset. If the block's reset is active-low, invert this tie-off.
  • Utilization asymmetry. Only 3 of 4 term slots are used (d* tied to 0), so one multiplier in the block is idle. The g and b channels cannot legally fill it — they are distinct reductions. If more coverage is wanted, instantiate two more blocks (one per channel) rather than merging channels.
  • Lint. Removing i1r/i2r/i3r may leave unused-signal warnings if any testbench or waveform script references them by name.

Want me to hand this plan to the reviewer subagent before any implementation?

1 paragraph break restored by the export, where the recorder joined text blocks with no separator.

You are an INDEPENDENT, fair Reviewer. You did not write this plan. Judge it on merit.
Target mode: sop_4_mode Tier: T2 Rule: Local restructuring only; preserve the region's function, role, and live consumers; no new operation/datatype family.
Region: bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2874$348 (op 'sop', datatype int8, consumers ['bilinearintrp']).
APPROVE the plan if it is correct and representative — a legitimate adaptation does not need to
be perfect, only sound. Do NOT demand rewrites for style, minor wording, or hypothetical concerns.
REVISE ONLY for a CONCRETE, specific violation you can name: (a) it changes the computed function
when the tier forbids it; (b) it introduces an operation/datatype absent from the design and not
admitted by the tier; (c) it fabricates terms to match a mode's n_terms (products that did not
exist / do not share a reduction); (d) it wires the mode to constants or a dead sink (mode island).
If none of these apply, APPROVE.
Your FIRST line must be exactly 'APPROVE' or 'REVISE', nothing else. If REVISE, the next lines
must name the specific violation (a/b/c/d) and what to change.

--- PLAN ---
I'll start by examining the source file around the candidate regions.

I've read the source. Here's my analysis and plan.

Findings

bilinearintrp (lines 2762–2887) is the barycentric color interpolator. Per color channel it computes three products that are registered and then reduced by a single shared adder:

verilog
i1r <= ul * rul ;   i2r <= vl * rvl ;   i3r <= wl * rwl ;   // 8b x 7b -> 15b
assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r) ;                              // shared reduction -> r[6:0]
  • ul/vl/wl are reg[7:0] (0..255) and rul/rvl/rwl are reg[6:0] (0..127) — both fit exactly in signed INT9 when zero-extended. Products are exact in 15 bits.
  • Latency matches the hard block exactly: today the products register on clk and the adder is combinational, so r settles one cycle after the operand registers. int_sop_4 registers result on clk, valid 1 cycle after operands — identical.
  • i1r/i2r/i3r have no other consumers (verified by search); rblrtemp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14], a live output.

Rejected: matmult (lines 335–350). Its 16-bit operands exceed INT9, and each row sums pre-truncated products (am11[30:15] + ...), so fusing into a full-precision SOP changes the computed value. Cx/Cy/Cz are also three separate reductions.

Not fused: the g and b channels (2877–2882) feed separate reductions (g, b) and must stay independent.


TIER: T2
REGIONS: bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2874$348, bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2875$349, bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2876$350
SHARED_REDUCTION: assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r) in module bilinearintrp — the 7-bit red-channel output r, which drives blr in resultwriter and is packed into temp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14]

clk       <- clk                       // module's only clock
reset     <- 1'b0                      // bilinearintrp has no reset port; hold inactive
mode_sigs <- sop_4_mode encoding (constant)
ax        <- {1'b0, ul}       (8b unsigned -> 9b)   ay <- {2'b00, rul}   // term 1: ul*rul  (was i1r)
bx        <- {1'b0, vl}                             by <- {2'b00, rvl}   // term 2: vl*rvl  (was i2r)
cx        <- {1'b0, wl}                             cy <- {2'b00, rwl}   // term 3: wl*rwl  (was i3r)
dx        <- 9'd0                                   dy <- 9'd0           // 4th term unused, tied 0
chainin   <- 64'd0                                                       // no cascade
result    -> assign r = result[6:0];                                     // real consumer
chainout  -> left unused (declared wire, no load)

PLAN:

  1. Instantiate one int_sop_4 inside bilinearintrp, fed directly from the existing ul/vl/wl and rul/rvl/rwl registers (which stay — they are also used elsewhere, e.g. ul feeds the texture address path, and wl <= 8'hFF - u - v is a real pipeline stage).
  2. Delete the now-dead reg[14:0] i1r, i2r, i3r declarations and their three assignments in the always @(posedge clk) block; replace assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r); with assign r = result[6:0];.
  3. Everything else is untouched: the module port list, the selectuv mux, the g and b channels (their own products and reductions remain in RTL), and all downstream consumers of r/blr.
  4. Introduced operations/datatypes: NONE. Same unsigned integer multiply-accumulate, same operand values, same latency, same output width.

Risks / correctness notes:

  • Truncation equivalence. Today the sum is evaluated in 15-bit context (max exact sum is 3·255·127 = 97155, which wraps mod 2^15) and then truncated to r[6:0]. Wrapping at bit 15 cannot disturb bits [6:0], so r is exactly exact_sum[6:0] — matching result[6:0] from a 64-bit accumulator. Safe, but this is the one thing to re-verify in simulation.
  • Signedness. int_sop_4 is INT9 (signed −256..255). All operands are zero-extended non-negative values, so products and the sum are positive and the signed/unsigned distinction is immaterial. Must not sign-extend ul (bit 7 set for values ≥128 would become negative).
  • Reset tie-off. The module has no reset; tying reset to 1'b0 means result is never cleared — matching current behavior, where i1r/i2r/i3r also have no reset. If the block's reset is active-low, invert this tie-off.
  • Utilization asymmetry. Only 3 of 4 term slots are used (d* tied to 0), so one multiplier in the block is idle. The g and b channels cannot legally fill it — they are distinct reductions. If more coverage is wanted, instantiate two more blocks (one per channel) rather than merging channels.
  • Lint. Removing i1r/i2r/i3r may leave unused-signal warnings if any testbench or waveform script references them by name.

Want me to hand this plan to the reviewer subagent before any implementation?

APPROVE

Verified against raygentop.v:

  • Terms are real, not fabricated (c). Lines 2874–2876 are exactly i1r <= ul*rul; i2r <= vl*rvl; i3r <= wl*rwl;, and line 2884 assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r); is a genuine single shared reduction over those three products. Tying dx/dy to zero is the correct honest choice — no 4th product exists in that reduction, and the g/b products (2877–2882) legitimately belong to separate reductions, so the plan is right to leave them alone.
  • Not a mode island (d). rblr (instance at line 2012) → temp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14] at 2267/2425/2484. Live consumer, real driven output.
  • Function preserved (a). Expression width of i1r+i2r+i3r is 15 bits, so the current value is exact_sum mod 2^15 truncated to r[6:0]; wrap at bit 15 cannot perturb bits [6:0], so r == exact_sum[6:0] == result[6:0]. Latency also matches: today products register on clk with a combinational adder; int_sop_4 registers result — one cycle either way.
  • No new op/datatype (b). ul/vl/wl are reg[7:0] (≤255) and rul/rvl/rwl are reg[6:0] (≤127); zero-extension to INT9 keeps every operand and product non-negative and exact. The plan explicitly flags the must-not-sign-extend hazard, which is the right call.
  • i1r/i2r/i3r have no other readers (only 2805–2807 decls, 2874–2876 writes, 2884 read), so deleting them is safe.

Minor, non-blocking: the claim that ul "feeds the texture address path" is wrong — that addr <= start + ul[6:2]... is a different module's local ul. The registers must still be kept anyway because the g/b channels consume them, so the conclusion stands. The matmult rejection (16-bit operands exceed INT9; per-row sums are of pre-truncated products, so fusing would change the value) is also correct reasoning.

prompt

1 paragraph break restored by the export, where the recorder joined text blocks with no separator.

Edit raygentop.v in this directory. Local restructuring: re-express the region (e.g. a multiply array + adder tree as a fused sum-of-products) to reach the mode; preserve the region's function and role, keep the rest of the design unchanged, wire the mode's real consumers.

Goal: rewrite the RTL so the hard-block mode 'sop_4_mode' is exercised in the packed netlist,
doing real work, while preserving the design's behaviour and role.
Tier: T2

Hard-block primitive to instantiate: int_sop_4 (precision INT9)
computes: out = ax*ay + bx*by + cx*cy + dx*dy
input ports: clk[1] (clock), reset[1], mode_sigs[12], ax[9], ay[9], bx[9], by[9], cx[9], cy[9], dx[9], dy[9], chainin[64]
output ports: result[64], chainout[64]
timing: result is registered inside the block on clk; it is valid 1 cycle after the input operands are applied.
Wire EVERY operand of the fused region onto the input ports (name them exactly as above); drive the region's real consumer from the output port. Tie unused term ports to 0. Do not leave input ports unconnected.

This is a MULTI-REGION fusion: aggregate these 4 product regions — bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2874$348, bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2875$349, bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2876$350 — which already feed the common reduction 'assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r) in module bilinearintrp — the 7-bit red-channel output r, which drives blr in resultwriter and is packed into temp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14]', into one 4-term 'sop_4_mode' instance. Fuse only these existing terms; do not invent new ones.
Rules: edit Verilog source only; preserve the module's live inputs/outputs and its downstream
consumers; do not introduce operations or datatypes absent from the design unless this tier
admits a variant; keep the surrounding design unchanged for T1/T2. Do not fabricate terms merely
to match a mode's n_terms — that is not representative.

Follow this approved plan:
I'll start by examining the source file around the candidate regions.

I've read the source. Here's my analysis and plan.

Findings

bilinearintrp (lines 2762–2887) is the barycentric color interpolator. Per color channel it computes three products that are registered and then reduced by a single shared adder:

verilog
i1r <= ul * rul ;   i2r <= vl * rvl ;   i3r <= wl * rwl ;   // 8b x 7b -> 15b
assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r) ;                              // shared reduction -> r[6:0]
  • ul/vl/wl are reg[7:0] (0..255) and rul/rvl/rwl are reg[6:0] (0..127) — both fit exactly in signed INT9 when zero-extended. Products are exact in 15 bits.
  • Latency matches the hard block exactly: today the products register on clk and the adder is combinational, so r settles one cycle after the operand registers. int_sop_4 registers result on clk, valid 1 cycle after operands — identical.
  • i1r/i2r/i3r have no other consumers (verified by search); rblrtemp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14], a live output.

Rejected: matmult (lines 335–350). Its 16-bit operands exceed INT9, and each row sums pre-truncated products (am11[30:15] + ...), so fusing into a full-precision SOP changes the computed value. Cx/Cy/Cz are also three separate reductions.

Not fused: the g and b channels (2877–2882) feed separate reductions (g, b) and must stay independent.


TIER: T2
REGIONS: bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2874$348, bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2875$349, bilinearintrp.$mul$raygentop.v:2876$350
SHARED_REDUCTION: assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r) in module bilinearintrp — the 7-bit red-channel output r, which drives blr in resultwriter and is packed into temp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14]
MAPPING:

clk       <- clk                       // module's only clock
reset     <- 1'b0                      // bilinearintrp has no reset port; hold inactive
mode_sigs <- sop_4_mode encoding (constant)
ax        <- {1'b0, ul}       (8b unsigned -> 9b)   ay <- {2'b00, rul}   // term 1: ul*rul  (was i1r)
bx        <- {1'b0, vl}                             by <- {2'b00, rvl}   // term 2: vl*rvl  (was i2r)
cx        <- {1'b0, wl}                             cy <- {2'b00, rwl}   // term 3: wl*rwl  (was i3r)
dx        <- 9'd0                                   dy <- 9'd0           // 4th term unused, tied 0
chainin   <- 64'd0                                                       // no cascade
result    -> assign r = result[6:0];                                     // real consumer
chainout  -> left unused (declared wire, no load)

PLAN:

  1. Instantiate one int_sop_4 inside bilinearintrp, fed directly from the existing ul/vl/wl and rul/rvl/rwl registers (which stay — they are also used elsewhere, e.g. ul feeds the texture address path, and wl <= 8'hFF - u - v is a real pipeline stage).
  2. Delete the now-dead reg[14:0] i1r, i2r, i3r declarations and their three assignments in the always @(posedge clk) block; replace assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r); with assign r = result[6:0];.
  3. Everything else is untouched: the module port list, the selectuv mux, the g and b channels (their own products and reductions remain in RTL), and all downstream consumers of r/blr.
  4. Introduced operations/datatypes: NONE. Same unsigned integer multiply-accumulate, same operand values, same latency, same output width.

Risks / correctness notes:

  • Truncation equivalence. Today the sum is evaluated in 15-bit context (max exact sum is 3·255·127 = 97155, which wraps mod 2^15) and then truncated to r[6:0]. Wrapping at bit 15 cannot disturb bits [6:0], so r is exactly exact_sum[6:0] — matching result[6:0] from a 64-bit accumulator. Safe, but this is the one thing to re-verify in simulation.
  • Signedness. int_sop_4 is INT9 (signed −256..255). All operands are zero-extended non-negative values, so products and the sum are positive and the signed/unsigned distinction is immaterial. Must not sign-extend ul (bit 7 set for values ≥128 would become negative).
  • Reset tie-off. The module has no reset; tying reset to 1'b0 means result is never cleared — matching current behavior, where i1r/i2r/i3r also have no reset. If the block's reset is active-low, invert this tie-off.
  • Utilization asymmetry. Only 3 of 4 term slots are used (d* tied to 0), so one multiplier in the block is idle. The g and b channels cannot legally fill it — they are distinct reductions. If more coverage is wanted, instantiate two more blocks (one per channel) rather than merging channels.
  • Lint. Removing i1r/i2r/i3r may leave unused-signal warnings if any testbench or waveform script references them by name.

Want me to hand this plan to the reviewer subagent before any implementation?

Work iteratively IN THIS SESSION: after each edit, run bash check.sh raygentop.v and read its output; if it does not synthesize, fix the RTL and check again. Do NOT run place-and-route or any VTR/vpr command — that is verified separately. Stop when check.sh reports it synthesizes cleanly with the intended arithmetic.

response

5 paragraph breaks restored by the export, where the recorder joined text blocks with no separator.

I'll start by examining the region in the source file.

Prior accepted run confirms the approach and that no blackbox stub is needed. Let me implement the plan.

Now the three edits:

Synthesizes. Let me verify the arithmetic census directly (the check script's \s grep printed nothing, so I want to confirm what's actually there).int_sop_4 is instantiated and in the hierarchy. Let me confirm the delta against the pristine source:

Delta is exactly right. Let me verify the diff is confined to the intended region:

Done. check.sh reports clean synthesis and the arithmetic census confirms the intended fusion.

What I changed

A single localized rewrite inside bilinearintrp (raygentop.v ~2802–2897), exactly per the plan:

  1. Removed reg[14:0] i1r, i2r, i3r and their three assignments in the always @(posedge clk) block.
  2. Instantiated one int_sop_4 fed directly from the existing ul/vl/wl and rul/rvl/rwl pipeline registers, with all 14 input ports driven (unused 4th term dx/dy and chainin tied to 0, reset tied to 1'b0 since the module has no reset).
  3. Rewired the real consumer: assign r = sop_result_r[6:0];r still drives blr in resultwriter into temp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14].

The g and b channels, the selectuv mux, the port list, and every other module are byte-identical — the diff touches only those three hunks.

Verification

Cell census vs. the pristine source shows the delta is precisely the fused region and nothing else:

cellbeforeafter
$mul1815 (−3 red products)
$add2725 (−2 adders of the 3-input reduction)
$dff3835 (−3 product registers)
int_sop_41

All other cell counts unchanged. bilinearintrp remains in the hierarchy, and no dangling references to the removed regs survive.

Correctness notes worth flagging
  • Bit-exactness holds. The original sum was evaluated in 15-bit context (max exact value 3·255·127 = 97155 wraps mod 2¹⁵) then truncated to r[6:0]. Since 2¹⁵ ≡ 0 (mod 2⁷), the wrap cannot disturb bits [6:0], so r is identical to result[6:0] from the block's 64-bit accumulator.
  • Signedness is safe because I zero-extended: ul≤255 → 9'b011111111 is still positive in signed INT9, and rul≤127 likewise. Sign-extending ul would have been a real bug for values ≥128.
  • Latency is preserved — products registered + combinational adder (1 cycle) maps onto the block's registered result (1 cycle).
  • One idle lane: only 3 of 4 term slots are used. The g/b channels can't legally fill it since they are distinct reductions; more coverage would need two additional blocks.
  • Untested assumption: reset is tied 1'b0 assuming active-high. If the block's reset is active-low, this holds it permanently in reset and must be inverted — the arch XML's port semantics are worth confirming.

Note I did not run place-and-route, per your instruction. Would you like me to hand this to the reviewer subagent?

# Adaptation report — raygentop → sop_4_mode  [ACCEPTED]

- **Tier:** T2
- **Outcome:** ACCEPTED [accepted] (1 iteration(s)) — accepted (T2) — reviewer agent confirmed
- **Target mode present in packed .net:** True
- **Modes used after:** sop_4_mode

## Region witness (before)
- role: `bilinearintrp`   operation: `sop`   datatype: `int8`
- regions: `['bilinearintrp.$mul$/home/samu/dev/llm-hardblocks/vtr-verilog-to-routing/vtr_flow/benchmarks/verilog/raygentop.v:2874$348', 'bilinearintrp.$mul$/home/samu/dev/llm-hardblocks/vtr-verilog-to-routing/vtr_flow/benchmarks/verilog/raygentop.v:2875$349', 'bilinearintrp.$mul$/home/samu/dev/llm-hardblocks/vtr-verilog-to-routing/vtr_flow/benchmarks/verilog/raygentop.v:2876$350']`
- shared reduction: `bilinearintrp signal r = i1r + i2r + i3r`   n_terms: 4
- downstream consumers: `['bilinearintrp']`

## Rewrite manifest (after)
- intended consumers: `['bilinearintrp']`
- introduced operations: `none`
- introduced datatypes: `none`

## Deterministic gates
- structural / provenance / per-tier: **PASSED**
- evidence floor (T3): no variant introduced (T1/T2)

## Independent reviewer agent (gate of record)
ACCEPT

The `bilinearintrp` role is preserved. The mode maps the three genuine red-channel products from regions `$2874$348`, `$2875$349`, and `$2876$350` onto the original reduction `i1r + i2r + i3r`; the fourth SOP lane is zero padding, not a fabricated operand. `sop_result[6:0]` drives the original `r` output consumed by `bilinearintrp`. No T3 sibling evidence is required because this is T2 with no variant introduced.

You are an INDEPENDENT ACCEPTANCE REVIEWER — the gate of record for whether an adapted design is
a LEGITIMATE member of its benchmark suite. You did NOT plan or write this edit. Judge only what
is in front of you. Your verdict is final and fully automated; there is no human backstop, so err
toward rejecting anything you cannot positively ground.

FRAMING — refute by default. Your job is to find why this adaptation is NOT a legitimate suite
member. Assume it is contrived until the evidence shows otherwise. A rewrite that merely "makes
the mode appear in the netlist" is NOT sufficient — the mode must do real work the original
workload actually implied.

This case has already passed the deterministic structural, provenance, and (for T3) evidence
gates — do not re-litigate those mechanically. Your judgement is the legitimacy call they
cannot make: would a real designer of THIS workload ship this, or is it a mode-island / fabricated
dot-product / gratuitous variant dressed up to pass?

REJECT if any of these hold:

  • (a) FABRICATED TERMS — a fused N-term product/sum aggregates operands that did not genuinely
    share a reduction in the original; the "dot product" is manufactured to fill the mode's arity.
  • (b) MODE ISLAND / DEAD WORK — the mode's result does not flow to the design's real outputs, or
    is wired to constants / a sink that the rest of the design ignores.
  • (c) ROLE BREAK — the adapted region no longer plays the workload role the witness recorded
    (e.g. a control-path multiply repurposed as a fake datapath MAC).
  • (d) UNGROUNDED VARIANT (T3) — the precision/algorithm variant is not the one the cited sibling
    design evidences; the adaptation drifts to a workload character the suite does not contain.

ACCEPT if the adaptation is sound: the mapped arithmetic genuinely existed, the fused terms really
shared a reduction, the mode's output drives the original consumers, and the workload role is
preserved. Legitimate adaptation need not be optimal — only real.

You MUST ground your verdict: cite the specific preserved role (from the witness), the real
region(s)/reduction the mode maps onto, and — for T3 — the sibling evidence axis. A verdict you
cannot ground is a REJECT.

Your FIRST line must be exactly 'ACCEPT' or 'REJECT'. Then, on the following lines, state the
grounding (role preserved / real region mapped / sibling evidence) or the specific violation
(a/b/c/d) and what makes it illegitimate.

I'll examine the actual file before judging.

ACCEPT

Role preserved (witness → code). The witness records role bilinearintrp, operation sop, int8. Lines 2762–2900 are still the barycentric color-interpolation module: u/v are selected by selectuv, wl <= 8'hFF - u - v forms the third barycentric weight, and the red vertex attributes ru/rv/rw are still registered into rul/rvl/rwl (lines 2864–2866) and fed to the block. The adapted region is doing exactly the same datapath job — weighted interpolation of a per-vertex color — not a control-path multiply dressed up as a MAC. No (c).

Real reduction, not a fabricated dot product. The pristine code was i1r <= ul*rul; i2r <= vl*rvl; i3r <= wl*rwl; followed by assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r); — three products that genuinely shared one adder in the original source. The fused instance maps exactly those three (x,y) pairs onto ax/ay, bx/by, cx/cy. Critically, the 4th slot is tied off (dx=dy=9'b0, chainin=64'b0) rather than filled by dragging in an unrelated product (e.g. a green/blue term that never shared this reduction). That is the honest use of an over-arity block. No (a).

Output reaches real design outputs. r → port r of bilinearintrpblr at the bilinearimp instantiation (line 2012) → temp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14] (lines 2267, 2425, 2484) → shadedataa <= temp_shadedataa (line 2048) → bit-sliced onto the module's outputs (lines 2053+). Exactly the consumer chain the witness recorded. Not a mode island. No (b).

T2 — no variant introduced, so (d) is not applicable; the manifest correctly declares empty introduced ops/datatypes.

Independent checks I ran:

  • No orphaned i1r/i2r/i3r remain (only a comment reference); the removed regs left no dangling logic.
  • Operand extension is value-correct: ul/vl/wl are 8b unsigned → {1'b0,ul} is a non-negative INT9; rul/rvl/rwl are 7b → {2'b0,rul}. Products and sum are unchanged.
  • Truncation matches the original: r is 7 bits, so the pristine i1r+i2r+i3r was already truncated to its low 7 bits; sop_result_r[6:0] reproduces this bit-exactly.
  • Latency claim in the comment holds: with nonblocking updates, the pristine i1r at N+1 was ul(N)*rul(N), and a clk-registered SOP result at N+1 is the same — one operand-to-r stage either way.
  • Elaboration: iverilog with a stubbed int_sop_4 elaborates the whole top cleanly; the only unresolved module is single_port_ram, expected for the _no_mem variant.

Non-blocking observation (not grounds for rejection): only the red channel is hardened; g and b keep their soft i1g+i2g+i3g / i1b+i2b+i3b adders. A production designer would likely map all three identical channels. But the witness scoped the region to the red-channel reduction only, and asymmetric/partial hardening is suboptimal rather than contrived — it does not manufacture terms, break the role, or orphan the result.

Checks on the final editor attempt

Stage results follow from the outcome code (the record stores the code and the failure reasons, not a per-check list). The deterministic gate evaluates every check and records every failure, so any check not named in a failure reason passed.

**Role preserved (witness → code).** The witness records role `bilinearintrp`, operation `sop`, int8. Lines 2762–2900 are still the barycentric color-interpolation module: `u`/`v` are selected by `selectuv`, `wl <= 8'hFF - u - v` forms the third barycentric weight, and the red vertex attributes `ru/rv/rw` are still registered into `rul/rvl/rwl` (lines 2864–2866) and fed to the block. The adapted region is doing exactly the same datapath job — weighted interpolation of a per-vertex color — not a control-path multiply dressed up as a MAC. No (c).

**Real reduction, not a fabricated dot product.** The pristine code was `i1r <= ul*rul; i2r <= vl*rvl; i3r <= wl*rwl;` followed by `assign r = (i1r + i2r + i3r);` — three products that genuinely shared one adder in the original source. The fused instance maps exactly those three (x,y) pairs onto `ax/ay`, `bx/by`, `cx/cy`. Critically, the 4th slot is **tied off** (`dx=dy=9'b0`, `chainin=64'b0`) rather than filled by dragging in an unrelated product (e.g. a green/blue term that never shared this reduction). That is the honest use of an over-arity block. No (a).

**Output reaches real design outputs.** `r` → port `r` of `bilinearintrp` → `blr` at the `bilinearimp` instantiation (line 2012) → `temp_shadedata{a,b,c}[20:14]` (lines 2267, 2425, 2484) → `shadedataa <= temp_shadedataa` (line 2048) → bit-sliced onto the module's outputs (lines 2053+). Exactly the consumer chain the witness recorded. Not a mode island. No (b).

**T2 — no variant introduced**, so (d) is not applicable; the manifest correctly declares empty introduced ops/datatypes.

**Independent checks I ran:**
- No orphaned `i1r/i2r/i3r` remain (only a comment reference); the removed regs left no dangling logic.
- Operand extension is value-correct: `ul/vl/wl` are 8b unsigned → `{1'b0,ul}` is a non-negative INT9; `rul/rvl/rwl` are 7b → `{2'b0,rul}`. Products and sum are unchanged.
- Truncation matches the original: `r` is 7 bits, so the pristine `i1r+i2r+i3r` was already truncated to its low 7 bits; `sop_result_r[6:0]` reproduces this bit-exactly.
- Latency claim in the comment holds: with nonblocking updates, the pristine `i1r` at N+1 was `ul(N)*rul(N)`, and a clk-registered SOP result at N+1 is the same — one operand-to-`r` stage either way.
- Elaboration: `iverilog` with a stubbed `int_sop_4` elaborates the whole top cleanly; the only unresolved module is `single_port_ram`, expected for the `_no_mem` variant.

**Non-blocking observation (not grounds for rejection):** only the red channel is hardened; `g` and `b` keep their soft `i1g+i2g+i3g` / `i1b+i2b+i3b` adders. A production designer would likely map all three identical channels. But the witness scoped the region to the red-channel reduction only, and asymmetric/partial hardening is suboptimal rather than contrived — it does not manufacture terms, break the role, or orphan the result.

Baseline: the unmodified raygentop through the same flow under the legacy settings regime (channel width minimum-width search, device auto, seed 1, grid 24 x 24 (auto), routed at width 88); measured, 2026-09-12 18:35:39 -0700, from configs/baselines/complexDSP.yaml. This run predates the VPR-arguments record, so its regime is inferred as legacy (VPR defaults), which every run before 2026-09-12 used. A lower delta is better on every row.

Read from the VPR log of the accepted attempt when the run finished (outcome.json ppa). Runs before 2026-09-12 recorded PPA only on acceptance.
