3.3.4.2. Warm Reset

Registers in the clock manager control how the clock manager responds to warm reset. Typically, software places the clock manager into a safe state in order to generate a known set of clocks for the ROM code to boot the system. The behavior of the system on warm reset as a whole, including how the FPGA fabric, boot code, and debug systems are configured to behave, must be carefully considered when choosing how the clock manager responds to warm reset.

The reset manager can request that the clock manager go into safe mode as part of the reset manager’s warm reset sequence. Before asserting safe mode to the clock manager, the reset manager ensures that the reset signal is asserted to all modules that receive warm reset.
