Description

https://github.com/chipsalliance/rocket-chip/blob/b503f8ac28a497b2463ffbac84bfe66533ace0bb/src/main/scala/devices/debug/Periphery.scala#L115

This references a workaround for a chisel issue closed by https://github.com/chipsalliance/chisel3/pull/1660

My guess is this naming bug workaround can probably be removed now? I'll look into it later but documenting it for now as a low priority update.

Research direction

Start at src/main/scala/devices/debug/Periphery.scala around line 115 and review the referenced Chisel pull request #1660. Determine whether the NoPrefix workaround is still required, then run the relevant Rocket Chip or debug-generation tests to confirm naming remains correct after any removal.
