vpi_handle_by_name() was assuming it was always given a valid scope
object. In the context of vpi_chk_error() this is not required and
some users use/abuse the interface by calling the function with invalid
objects expecting a 0 return value. This patch adds an explicit check
for the supported types vpiScope and as an extension vpiModule.
Anything else should be flagged as an error once we have vpi_chk_error()
implemented, but for now it just returns 0.
Remove dependencies on vvp_bit4_encoding outside of the vvp_net
core types. The table_functor_s class was the worst offfender and
was barely used, so it is now removed completely. There are a few
opcodes in vhtread.cc that also make vvvp_bit4_t encoding
assumptions (and used casts) and those have been fixed. There
were also various VPI interface functions that are fixed.
vpi_put_value can mimic force and release with vpiForceFlag and
vpiReleaseFlag flags to the vpi_put_value call. With this patch,
the infrastructure is added to allow the flags argument to be passed
to the dispatched put_value function, and for signals handle those
flags as force/release of a net.
tgt-vvp/eval_expr.c uninitialized variables
vpi/sys_display.c uninitialized variables
vvp/vpi_priv.cc deprecated string constant usage
vvp/vpi_vthr_vector.cc deprecated string constant usage
the last entry invokes vpip_name_string() and uses const char *
in the same way as the other 9 callers in vvp/*.cc, the only
difference is that the argument is static instead of computed.
This patch fixes/enhances the array part select code. It also
verifies that any lval array index in a continuous assignment
is a constant value. Also, %set/av now uses index register 1 as
described in the documentation (as a bit offset).
This patch adds ivl_scope_time_precision() to the compiler which can
be used to extract the local scope precision. tgt-stub and tgt-vvp
have been modified to use this new function and output a value that
is appropriate. The vvp runtime has been altered to use this new
data which is accessed with the vpip_time_precision_from_handle()
function. vpiTimePrecision uses this function to return the correct
precision.
Add support for accessing the modpath nodes via PLI,
and add support for the vpi_set_delays and vpi_put_delays
functions to set the delays on those paths.

Modified the code that deals with real variables to accept an integer
value when using vpi_put_value(). Also added some type of diagnostic
message for all switch defaults that have an assert(0) to indicate an
error condition, removed CVS comments and removed a small section of
unreachable code.
It appears that other simulators allow the second argument to
vpi_handle_by_name to be either a scope or a module. Allowing
a module in addition to a scope significantly increases the
usability of this function.
vpi_get_str() can now return a reasonable value for most of the
types used in vvp. I'm not certain I got all of them, but they
are easy to add if any are missing. I also fixed a couple of
typos that I found while looking for all the different types.
The argument passed to $finish and $stop is not currently used, but it
is now passed down to the functions that may someday do something
useful with it (schedule_finish() and schedule_stop() in vvp/schedule.cc).
as well as a user specified log file, set log
file to buffer lines.
Add vpi_flush function, and clear up some cunfused
return codes from other vpi functions.
Adjust $display and vcd/lxt messages to use the
standard output/log file.
scaled to the local units. Change the internal
implementation of vpiSystemTime the $time functions
to properly account for this. Also add $simtime
to get the simulation time.
