Discrete integrator again fails to convert to Verilog due to delay balancing failure

I'm trying to convert a discrete integrator block to Verilog and I'm getting the following error. I’m new to FPGA and don’t yet understand the numerous settings very well, but I’d like to figure out what’s going on. I managed to set discrete time everywhere, but I haven’t figured out this error yet. Please tell me.

fpconfig = hdlcoder.createFloatingPointTargetConfig('NATIVEFLOATINGPOINT');
hdlset_param('integrator', 'FloatingPointTargetConfiguration', fpconfig);
hdlset_param('integrator', 'GenerateValidationModel', 'on');
hdlset_param('integrator', 'HDLSubsystem', 'integrator/Integrator');
% adjust the OS value based on the ratio of data rate and clock rate;
% % for this model a minimum latency of 11 based on latency of the double
% precision math in the feedback loop.
hdlset_param('integrator', 'Oversampling', 11); % <===========
% enable clock rate pipelining on the model
hdlset_param('integrator', 'ClockRatePipelining', 'on') % <===========
hdlset_param('integrator', 'PackagePostfix', '_pac');
hdlset_param('integrator', 'ProjectFolder', 'hdl_prj');
hdlset_param('integrator', 'ResetInputPort', 'reset_x');
hdlset_param('integrator', 'TargetDirectory', 'hdl_prj\hdlsrc');
hdlset_param('integrator', 'TargetLanguage', 'Verilog');
hdlset_param('integrator', 'UseFloatingPoint', 'on');
hdlset_param('integrator/Integrator/Discrete-Time Integrator', 'LatencyStrategy', 'Max');
With CRP option on and with the right OS value you should be able to generate code.

in R2024a if you don't set the sufficient Oversampling factor you should see this message...
>> hdlset_param('integrator', 'Oversampling', 10); % intentionally set this too low than latency requested/required in a feedback loop...
>> makehdl('integrator/Integrator')
Delay balancing unsuccessful. Cause:
Clock-rate pipelining found at least one feedback loop using optimizations that exceeds the
allowed latency budget(s). Consider either setting the oversampling factor to '11' to provide
sufficient latency budget or decreasing the latency by reducing optimization requests
in R2024a if you disabled CRP option you should see this guidance message...
>> hdlset_param('integrator', 'ClockRatePipelining', 'off') % intentionally turn CRP off for a model that requires latency in a feedback loop...
>> makehdl('integrator/Integrator')
For the block 'integrator/Integrator/Discrete-Time Integrator'
Delay balancing unsuccessful. Cause:
An extra 10 cycles of latency introduced by optimizations in the feedback loop cannot be offset
using design delays for the loop latency budget. If you are modeling at data rate (high-level
description of algorithm without hardware implementation details), refer to the clock-rate
pipelining report for more details. If you are modeling at clock rate, consider increasing the
latency budget by adding more design delays in the feedback loop. Refer to the delay balancing
report for more details. Offending block: integrator/Integrator/Discrete-Time Integrator
The messages and links should help you get to a working model.
