Summary
NVDLA partition_c-sky130hd does not finish — global placement plateaus and never converges. This is a pre-existing non-closure (did not finish on the old tools either); the 2026-06 upgrade does not change it.
Detail
asap7 partition_c (−183 ps, flagged) and nangate45 partition_c (+0.8 ns) finish on the new tools; only sky130hd partition_c is stuck at GP.
Scope
Needs GP/floorplan work — out of scope for the flow-knob upgrade. See designs/src/NVDLA/DECISIONS.md. Part of PR #195.
