Apparently, there are some global signals which aren't yet supported. You could probably try to modify unisim to remove them.

If you have a reproducer (not using unisim, which is not open source), I could try to add support for it.

[aniketabhiraj2004]

Can you suggest some open source reproducer.

Can you suggest some open source reproducer.

Can you suggest some open source reproducer.

That's what's being asked of you. For the issue to be fixed, there needs to be a design that reproduces the issue without using proprietary libraries - you're in the best position to create such a design, since you just need to modify your existing reproducer to not use unisim.

If I remember correctly, the GSR/GTS signals are only necessary for simulation and where generated like shown here.

Did you include GLBL_VHD.vhd?

[aniketabhiraj2004]

Is signal in package is allowed in vhdl.

[tgingold]

Yes, signal declarations are allowed in package according to the VHDL LRM.
But I fear they aren't in the synthesizable subset.
