final_report.tcl calls gui::show in batch mode

[alokkumardalei-wq]

Subject

[Flow] for any util, flow Makefile, or flow script issues.

Describe the bug

if { [ord::openroad_gui_compiled] } {
  gui::show "source $::env(SCRIPTS_DIR)/save_images.tcl" false
}
This is too broad for batch runs. A GUI-enabled OpenROAD build does not guarantee that GUI Tcl commands are available in the current session.

As a result, a normal ORFS flow can fail in the finish stage with:
```text
Error: final_report.tcl, 72 invalid command name "gui::show"

Expected Behavior

final_report.tcl should only call GUI commands when the GUI is actually available in the current run, or it should skip image generation in batch mode.

To Reproduce

To reproduce the bug

From OpenROAD-flow-scripts/flow:

make DESIGN_CONFIG=./designs/sky130hd/gcd/config.mk OPENROAD_EXE=../tools/OpenROAD/build/bin/openroad clean_finish finish

The flow reaches final_report.tcl and then fails with:

Error: final_report.tcl, 72 invalid command name "gui::show"

I also generated an ORFS issue reproducer archive with:

make DESIGN_CONFIG=./designs/sky130hd/gcd/config.mk OPENROAD_EXE=../tools/OpenROAD/build/bin/openroad ISSUE_TAG=gui-show-batch final_report_issue

Attached generated tar file:
final_report_gui-show-batch.tar.gz
Note: I used OPENROAD_EXE=../tools/OpenROAD/build/bin/openroad because this local checkout uses a locally built OpenROAD binary rather than an installed openroad at the default ORFS path.

Hello @maliberty and other maintainers could you please have a look on this issue when you have time and please let me know about your thoughts on this. I’d be happy to work on a fix if this is confirmed.

Thank you !

[maliberty]

It doesn't fail in the CI nor have I observed this failure. @alokkumardalei-wq can you reproduce it?

[alokkumardalei-wq]

Yes, I can reproduce it locally.
In my setup I used a local OPENROAD_EXE, but the failure is consistent and I attached a final_report_issue reproducer archive so it can be tested independently of my local path.
The flow reaches final_report.tcl and fails with Error: final_report.tcl, 72 invalid command name "gui::show".
The archive is

final_report_gui-show-batch.tar.gz

How can ord::openroad_gui_compiled be true and gui::show not exist? It seems contradictory. @alokkumardalei-wq you are welcome to figure it out

[alokkumardalei-wq]

Yes @maliberty that’s fair, and I agree it looks contradictory.

In my local batch run, ord::openroad_gui_compiled is 1, but gui::enabled is 0 and gui::show is not present in the Tcl command set. That suggests there may be a local build/runtime mismatch behind what I’m seeing, not just an ORFS-side guard issue.

We'll investigate that part more closely and report back with a clearer root cause.
Thank you !
