This includes support at the parser (pform) through enaboration
and the netlist format for the break and continue statements.
Elaboration actually already worked for for-loops, but since the code
generators need more information, this is a rewire of that support to
be explicit about for-loops. This means they are not rewritten as fancy
while loops. The code generators will have to handle that.
Given the elaboration of for-loops now work, write the vvp code generator
support needed to implement it.
Now that for-loops are presented as for-loops to the code generator, the
vlog95 code generator doesn't need to infer them anymore. Generate the code
more directly.
Also update the tests list so that the vlog95_reg tests all pass.
SystemVerilog allows to use the `super` keyword to access properties and
methods of a base class. This is useful if there is for example an
identifier with the same name in the current class as in the base class and
the code wants to access the base class identifier.
To support this a bit of refactoring is required. Currently properties are
internally referenced by name, this does not work if there are multiple
properties of the same. Instead reference properties always by index.
In addition when looking up an identifier that resolves to an object return
both the type and the object itself. This is necessary since both `this`
and `super` resolve to the same object, but each with a different type.

The compiler normally optimises away the enclosing block statement
if a block only contains one statement. But this is not valid for
a fork/join_none block.
A `return` statement in a function gets translated into a vvp `%disable`
instruction. This works fine as long as no recursion is involved. The
`%disable` instruction will stop execution of all active threads of a
particular scope. For recursive functions this means as soon as the inner
most function returns all containing outer function calls get disabled as
well. This results in incorrect behavior.
To make recursive functions using the `return` statement work use the new
vvp `%disable/parent` instruction. This instruction will only disable the
closest thread in the thread hierarchy that matches the target scope.

In the rare cases where DARRAY signals are in the network, handle
them by creating the proper ivl_nexus_t node. This also implements
the receive of vvp_object_t objects bu vvp_fun_anyedge_sa. This
together makes it possible for IVL_VT_DQUEUE objects to be in
wait lists.
This fixes#412
The unique, unique0, and priority keywords can decorate case statements
to tell the run time (or synthesis) to do extra tests (or make extra
assumptions). These tests are not implemented in the vvp run time, but
now the decorations make it to the code generators.
This allows for syntax like a.b.c where a is a class with member
b, which is a class with member c, and so on. The handling is mostly
for the support of compound objects like classes.
This gets nested l-values to (but just short of) the ivl_target API.
Now the elaborator can process nested l-values, but I haven't figured
out how to present that at the ivl_target.h API.
This provides the ivl_target.h interface for class definitions
and expressions, the vvp code generator support for class objects
and properties, and the vvp run time support. Trivial class objects
now seem to work.
Add properties to the classes, and elaborate expressions that
have class properties. Describe class object property references
all the way down to the stub target.
This patch adds some preliminary module port information to the ivl
interface. This may change as I investigate exactly what is needed.
It also fixes a few minor bugs (a missed local variable and spacing)
This patch modifies the compiler and the ivl interface to pass the
type of indexed part select that is being represented (up/down) in
a procedural L-value or R-value. This is needed by any back end that
wants to correctly denormalize the (zero based) base expression.
This patch adds/fixes the following:
Adds file/line information to a UDP definition.
Prints an error message if a UDP is passed signals wider than 1 bit.
A UDP should supports a range, but the compiler currently does not.
Add scope information for constants.
Fix the Icarus extension UDP table entry element 'h' to use h.
The ivl_udp_init() value is a char not unsigned.
Add FILE_NAME() for a bunch more of the ivl interface objects.
It was documented that ivl_scope_port(s)() could be used with tasks,
but the code did not support this. This patch adds that functionality
as documented. It also removes the documentation for ivl_lval_mem()
since that function no longer exists.
In ivl_alloc.h we redefine malloc(), realloc() and calloc() to have
standard error checking. We don't want to do this for anything that
comes from the standard headers. This specifically doesn't work if
a C++ header files does std::malloc, etc.
Also change to -W instead of -Wextra since that is more portable. I
plan to add a check from -Wextra and use it when available since it
is more descriptive.
This patch adds the ability to call a system function as a task for
the SystemVerilog generation (-g2009). The return value is really
calculated, but it is ignored.
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.
This patch adds support for 64 bit non-blocking delays in procedural
code. We fixed the procedural delay operator (blocking delays) earlier.
This patch mostly mimics what was done there. The continuous assignment
delay operator still needs to be fixed.
Put together the infrastructure for elaborating analog statements,
including create the NetAnalogTop objects that hold analog statements
and are in turn held by the design.
While doing this, clean up the various unique initial/always enumerations
to use the ivl_process_type_t type.
Continue cleaning up shadowed variables, flagged by turning on -Wshadow.
No intended change in functionality. Patch looks right, and is tested
to compile and run on my machine. No regressions in test suite.
This patch pushes the non-blocking event control information to
the code generator. It adds the %evctl statements that are used
to put the event control information into the special thread
event control registers. The signed version (%evctl/s) required
the implementation of %ix/getv/s to load a signed value into
an index register. It then adds %assign/wr/e event control based
non-blocking assignment for real values. It also fixes the other
non-blocking real assignments to use Transport instead of inertial
delays.
Detect function call expressions that turn out to be calls to the
access function of a nature. Elaborate the access function and stub
the emit code. This gets the access function just short of the code
generator.
Variable word addresses are not to be adjusted by the bit select
of the vector direction. That is a holdover from when arrays were
stored as bit vectors.

more general concept of arrays. The NetMemory and NetEMemory
classes are removed from the ivl core program, and the IVL_LPM_RAM
lpm type is removed from the ivl_target API.
