Description

Before we go too much further, I think it is worth considering whether we should switch to naming the ports in chip_mocha_genesys2.sv and pins_genesys2.xdc after the corresponding net name on the Genesys2 schematic rather than the current mixed approach (for which I'm partly to blame).

Research direction

Compare the port names in chip_mocha_genesys2.sv and pins_genesys2.xdc with the corresponding net names on the Genesys2 schematic. Determine the complete naming convention and update both files so each port and pin uses its matching schematic net name; done means the mappings are consistent.
