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.
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.
syntax. Hook this support into existing $attribute
handling, and add number and void value types.
Add to the ivl_target API new functions for access
of complex attributes attached to gates.
I now generate the scopes and notice the parameters
in a separate pass over the pform. Once the scopes
are generated, I can process overrides and evalutate
paremeters before elaboration begins.
in structural contexts, Replace vector<PExpr*>
and list<PExpr*> with svector<PExpr*>, evaluate
constant expressions with parameters, handle
memories as lvalues.
Parse task declarations, integer types.
