Chisel v3.4.3 has been released

[Jack Koenig]

Hello everyone,

We have released a new minor version of the various Chisel-related projects:

Chisel v3.4.3 - https://github.com/chipsalliance/chisel3/releases/tag/v3.4.3

ChiselTest v0.3.3 - https://github.com/ucb-bar/chisel-testers2/releases/tag/v0.3.3

FIRRTL v1.4.3 -

Treadle v1.3.3 - https://github.com/chipsalliance/treadle/releases/tag/v1.3.3

Chisel-Testers v1.5.3 - https://github.com/freechipsproject/chisel-testers/releases/tag/v1.5.3

DSPTools v1.4.3 - https://github.com/ucb-bar/dsptools/releases/tag/v1.4.3

Chisel and FIRRTL have the bulk (well all) of the changes this minor release, please check out the release notes.

I would like to highlight a few things I'm particularly excited about this release:

  * AutoCloneType2 is a huge performance and usability improvement in Chisel

  * That plus 2 other fixes to long-running performance bugs gives this release a ~20% compilation speedup for many large designs

  * Large improvements to the website (https://www.chisel-lang.org/) including a more obvious link (top-right) to the Chisel docs (where the bulk of the improvements are)

  * Great contributions from a new contributor (https://twitter.com/carlosedp) adding support for preloading memories on FPGAs!

As always, if you have any trouble, feel free to ask questions in this mailing list or come hang out on Gitter: https://gitter.im/freechipsproject/chisel3

Should chisel3-plugin be part of this release?

[Jack Koenig]

Chisel3-plugin is part of the release. It's part of the Chisel v3.4.3 release notes, but I'll make sure to call it out explicitly in future announcements.
