I could move them in a separate dtso to be loaded before the main Well... who instantiates them? If they are in top-level, then CLK_OF_DECLARE which is not called at your point? You must instantiate clocks different way, since they are not part of "rp1".

Thanks for the heads up. I don't care if you do not run static analyzers if you produce good code. But if you produce bugs which could have been easily spotted with sparser, than it is different thing.

Again, judging by number of reports from checkers that is a big deal, because it is your task to run the tools. Best regards, Krzysztof
