board naming convention should not use dashes

[tempest766]

The board naming convention of embedding dashes breaks the Xilinx Vitis platform build for FreeRTOS because the XSA propogates that name to Vitis, where it is made uppercase and embedded in the xparameters.h file as

#define PSA_BOARD_ZYBO-Z7-20

which is of course illegal in C since it contains dashes.

My assumption is that the board name json/xml fields are being used to create that macro.

I hit that also.

In the "board" tag of board.xml, the "name" field is what becomes the #define. You can just edit that file for the board you're interested in. That does break the links in an existing project though, maybe that's why the issue has been around so long.

Unfortunately I don't see a way to replace the board in vivado, I had to write_bd_tcl to save my block design, create a whole new project for the updated board file, and recreate everything.
