Allow to hit the "Running" button to stop detailed routing

Open stefanottili opened this issue 7 months ago • 0 comments

Description

I ran detailed routing on https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenROAD/issues/5302 but it didn't finish overnight after > 10 hours of runtime. It was stuck in the 38th iteration with ~1000 errors left.

It would be very beneficial to be able to just hit the red "Running" button in the gui to stop detailed routing. By retaining the existing solution and error file, one can then debug where and what is causing this slow routing.

Suggested Solution

Put the detailed routing taks in a background process and allow it to be interrupted by the gui.
