Most vvp functors need to support recv_vec4_pv. Any that are strength-aware
also need to support recv_vec8_pv. Note the simplifying assumption that is
documented in the base class recv_vec4_pv_ implementation.
Flip-flops are generally modelled in behavioural code using non-blocking
assignments. This change makes the synthesised code behave the same as
the behavioural code. It's a more realistic model of a real flip-flop
too, which will always have some clock-to-output delay.
The functions (malloc, free, etc.) that used to be provided in
malloc.h are now provided in cstdlib for C++ files and stdlib.h for
C files. Since we require a C99 compliant compiler it makes sense
that malloc.h is no longer needed.
This patch also modifies all the C++ files to use the <c...>
version of the standard C header files (e.g. <cstdlib> vs
<stdlib.h>). Some of the files used the C++ version and others did
not. There are still a few other header changes that could be done,
but this takes care of much of it.
The first input through a net needs to be propagated, since this
is used as an initialization for the net. This patch also cleans
up wires to not need the width_ member, instead inferring the
width from the saved bit value.
The out pointer of a vvp_net_t object is going to be a bit more
sophisticated when we redo the handling of net signals. Take a step
towards this rework by making the pointer private and implementing
methods needed to access it.
This patch splits any VVP net functor that needs to access both
statically and automatically allocated state into two sub-classes,
one for handling operations on statically allocated state, the
other for handling operations on automatically allocated state.
This undoes the increase in run-time memory use introduced when
automatic task/function support was first introduced.
This patch also fixes various issues with event handling in automatic
scopes. Event expressions in automatic scopes may now reference either
statically or automatically allocated variables or arrays, or part
selects or word selects thereof. More complex expressions (e.g.
containing arithmetic or logical operators, function calls, etc.) are
not currently supported.
This patch introduces some error checking for language constructs
that may not reference automatically allocated variables. Further
error checking will follow in a subsequent patch.
