Actual chips, not as far as I know.
There is a completely open source tool chain for a small FPGA, the icestorm project.
The VPR project by university of Toronto has several architechure models defined, but there is probably no way to turn these into a real chip.
FPGa vendors in general are extremely secretive about their designs.

- buildbot 10y agoAt least with VPR you can define /modify your own FPGA architecture file! They are written in xml and parsed by the tool when doing place and route.
