Why is there an unconstrained clock, altera_dual_boot: dual_boot_0|alt_dual_boot_avmm: alt_dual_boot_avmm_comp|alt_dual_boot: alt_dual_boot|ru_clk?

Description

Due to a problem in the Quartus® Prime Standard Edition Software version 15.1, you may see this warning message in the TimeQuest Timing Analyzer when using the Altera Dual Configuration IP. This problem is seen in design targetting MAX® 10 devices.

Resolution

To work around this problem, apply the following constraint in the sdc file

             create_generated_clock -name {ru_clk} -source [get_ports {clk}] -divide_by 2 -master_clock {clk} [get_registers {*ru_clk}]

This problem is fixed starting with the Intel® Quartus® Prime Standard Edition Software version 16.0.
