Jerry,

flash generic interface (FLASH_GENERIC, FLASH_GENERIC_REGISTERED) are used
only for simulation purposes (for regressions in order to have generate long
and short ack which is only possible with generic flash and not with actual
XSV flash interface which always take same amount of time and therefore is
not suitable for regression). Both defines are used in simulation script
(defined depending which iteration of regression is run at the moment of
regression simulation).

So bottom line if you are implementing for XSV board, ignore flash generic.
This is accomplished simply by not having any defines for flash generic.
Basically the code you need to synthesize is in the second part of the file
after the 'else (line 231).
This section should synthesize w/o problem, at least Synplify Pro doesn't
have any problems.

regards,
Damjan
