What are the reasons/motivation for this change?
Not flattening gives faster execution time and lower memory usage in exchange for worse QoR. Probably more useful for debugging/exploring synthesis results than for actual use with an FPGA (not sure if the VPR P&R flow even accepts hierarchical netlists at all).
Explain how this is achieved.
Same way as for the other
synth_*
passes (exceptsynth_xilinx
which doesn't flatten by default).If applicable, please suggest to reviewers how they can test the change.
