The IP Packager and the Module Reference flow support a number of Attributes of the style X_[...] that can specify a certain behavior to replace and modify the standard interface inference heuristic. As a global rule, the parameters always take precedence over any project-wide or application-wide behavior. Furthermore, most attributes are attached to the ports (because VHDL or Verilog do not have any notion of an interface that this information could be attached to). If the attribute relates to interface-wide information (for example, X_INTERFACE_MODE), the attribute applies to the entire interface, and any constituent port can be chosen as representative for the whole interface.
