Some questions about intel HLS RTL design.

Hi,

1. HLS generates handshaking logic to interface with the rest of your system. In addition to the parameters you specify, it generates a component invocation interface containing the start/busy and done/stall signals.

2. You can use the hls_always_run_component attribute to disable the handshaking logic (Can check in RTL viewer):

hls_always_run_component
component float add_fp_tiger(float a, float b) {
    float p;
    p = a + b;
    return p;
}  // test the scalar addition within hard-FP

Note that with the handshaking logic disabled, you cannot use the co-simulation flow to validate your component (like Xilinx).
