Bumping specific tools .. HINT::
====================== Sometimes it may be preferable to get the latest versions of the tools before the pinned versions in this repository
are updated.
Sometimes it may be preferable to get the latest versions of the tools even before the full Toolchain is validated and upgraded. Latest versions *are not guaranteered to be bug free*, but they enable users to take advantage of fixes.

Updating Yosys SystemVerilog plugin
-----------------------------------
.. Warning::
The expected usage of the plugin by using the ``read_systemverilog`` command (used by default in F4PGA flow) should work.
When using the plugin by calling ``read_uhdm`` command, take additional care to use the same Surelog and UHDM version for creating and reading the UHDM file - updating only the plugin can create a mismatch in this case.
Make sure ``curl``, ``jq``, ``tar`` and ``wget`` are installed (used to automatically download newest version):
.. code-block:: bash
:name: get-utils
apt install curl jq tar wget
Activate the conda repository for the correct family:
.. code-block:: bash
:name: activate-xc7
conda activate xc7
Obtain the latest release of the plugin from `here <https://github.com/antmicro/yosys-uhdm-plugin-integration/releases>`_:
.. code-block:: bash
:name: get-plugin
curl https://api.github.com/repos/antmicro/yosys-uhdm-plugin-integration/releases/latest | jq .assets[1] | grep "browser_download_url" | grep -Eo 'https://[^\"]*' | xargs wget -O - | tar -xz
Install the plugin using provided installation script.
It will use the ``yosys-config`` from conda, so it will install into the conda environment.
.. code-block:: bash
:name: install-plugin
./install-plugin.sh
