Changing clock inverter buffer at the init stage

I need to change the clock inverters at init stage to a compatible inverter(ie, ports should be matched).
how??

this is because as per convention no clock buffers should be there in any critical path at init stage..
it should be present only after CTS ..


how could i do this??

one of r2r path look like this..


Path 1: VIOLATED Setup Check with Pin EXECUTE_INST/\p_reg[31] /state_remap/DFF/
CK
Endpoint: EXECUTE_INST/\p_reg[31] /state_remap/DFF/D (^) checked with
leading edge of 'm_tdsp_clk'
Beginpoint: EXECUTE_INST/\sel_op_b_reg[2] /state_remap/DFF/Q (^) triggered by
leading edge of 'm_tdsp_clk'
Path Groups: {reg2reg}

it includes CLKINVX8 and so on...
how could i remove this??

The question is not very clear. Do you mean to say you need to change the instance of the invertor so that you get better delay characteristics?

Click to expand...

yes..
i need to get better delay characterstics..
