Problem: so far, these names have not been conveyed.
But after the net IDs changed in the LVS DB (renumbering),
the names should be retained. Otherwise it is difficult to
relate log level entries or Spice netlists to them.
* First step for solution:
Problem was: the ambiguity resolver was making decisions which later resulted in
a name conflict. Later on, another branch of the backtracking algorithm came
across the same situation but decided based on names, creating an conflict.
First part of the solution is to establish the backtracking information
during ambiguity resolution and using that rather than an alternative branch
later on. This avoids this conflict, but does not favor names as mandated
by the "use_names" flag. This will be the second step of the solution.
* Bugfixed solution (partially)
* Introducing third pass in netlist compare
The second pass is "ambiguity resolution by name" and
is skipped if "consider_net_names" is false. The third
pass then is ignoring the names.
* Bugfix
* Comment fixed, test updates
* Added tests
* Added test data variant for CentOS 8
