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.
Internally, treat the "$" as a special expression type that takes
as an argument the signal that is being indexed. In the vvp target,
use the $last system function to implement this.
When for example assigning to foo[<x>] within a contitional, and
doing synthesis, we need to create a NetSubstitute device to manage
the l-value bit selects.
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 gets the enumeration type through to the ivl_target API so
that code generators can do something with it. Generate stub
output with tgt-stub, and generate the proper vvp run time to
make simple enumerations work from end to end.
This patch covers more than it should. It removes many of the -Wextra
warnings in the main ivl directory. It also makes some minor code
improvements, adds support for constant logicals in eval_tree (&&/||),
adds support for correctly sign extending === and !==, it starts to
standardize the eval_tree debug messages and fixes a strength bug
in the target interface (found with -Wextra). The rest of the warnings
and eval_tree() rework will need to come as a second patch.
BOOL values have a specific cast from LOGIC, this node takes care
of it. Also arrange for the elaboration to insert them in the right
planes and for the code generator to generate them.
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.
This patch adds .cast/int and updates .cast/real to act as a local
(temporary) net and to support either a signed or unsigned input.
The vvp_vector4_t class not can convert an arbitrarily sized double
to a vector value. This removes the restriction of lround().
Also document the new statements.
This handles the general case of a non-real operand to a real-valued
division. This can turn up if only 1 operand of a divide is real. In
this case the division as a whole is real and the other operand must
be cast to real.
This method creates an extra node, but it should be a very compact
node and this node does no evaluation tricks so in the run time should
be no more expensive then folding the cast into the .arith/div.r itself.
The tran devices include tran, rtran, tranif0/1 and rtranif0/1. These
are all elaborated as options on a NetTran device. It is still not
clear the best way to present tran devices via the ivl_target.h API.
In continuous assign expressions, the abs() operator can't easily be
burried in generic unary handling, so add the IVL_LPM_ABS type and
generate it as needed.
Rework the handling of file names to use a perm_string heap to hold
the file names, instead of the custom file name heap in the lexor.
Also rename the get_line to get_fileline to reflect its real duties.
This latter chage touched a lot of files.
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.
including assing, cassign and force.
Generate NetConcat devices for gate outputs that feed into a
vector results. Use this to hande gate arrays. Also let gate
arrays handle vectors of gates when the outputs allow for it.
