I noticed that for Spartan 3 the DCM status does not define bit 2 any more. In Virtex II it meant that the DFS was stopped. Does this mean the DFS never stops? I want to use DFS mode (no CLKFB). How do I know if I need to reset the DCM?
Thanks,

STATUS[2] is still the "CLKFX or CLKFX180 Output Stopped Indicator", as shown in XAPP462.

I see, however, that it's missing from the latest data sheet! I'll file a bug report.
