The `recv_vec{4,8}_pv()` functions are used to implement a partial write to
a vector. As parameters they take both the value and the width of the
value.
All callers of of these functions pass `val.size()` or a variation thereof
as the width of the value. And all implementations that do anything with
the data have an assert that `val.size() == wid`.
Remove the `wid` parameter from these functions and just use `val.size()`
directly where needed. This allows to simplify the interface and also
to remove the asserts.

The old implementation connected all inputs to the same vvp_net_t port,
on the basis that we don't care about the data values or what port they
arrived on. But if one or more of the inputs fans out to multiple nets,
the chains get tangled, which either results in connections being lost
or inappropriate connections being made, depending on the order that
the inputs are linked.
This could have been fixed by using a standard wide functor. But as we
don't care about the data values, that would be unnecessary overhead.
We just need separate vvp_net_t objects to handle the input connectivity
and can keep using a single shared functor.
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 clang compiler does not like mixing class and struct references. This
patch updates all the struct __vpiHandle, etc. to use class since that is
how they are now defined.
This patch adds -Wextra to the compilation flags for C++ files in
the vvp and vpi subdirectories. It also fixes all the problems
found while adding -Wextra. This mostly entailed removing some of
the unused arguments, removing the name for others and using the
correct number of initializers.
Currently, edge event functors declared in automatically allocated
scopes that are used to detect edges on signals declared in static
scopes are unable to correctly determine edge information for the
first signal delta they receive because they do not know the old
state of the signal. This patch causes the state of static signals
received by these event functors to be recorded as static state in
the functors, so the old state of the signals can be initialised
to the correct value when a new automatic context is created.
This patch adds code to free most of the memory when vvp
finishes. It also adds valgrind hooks to manage the various
memory pools. The functionality is enabled by passing
--with-valgrind to configure. It requires that the
valgrind/memcheck.h header from a recent version of
valgrind be available. It check for the existence of this
file, but not that it is new enough (version 3.1.3 is known
to not work and version 3.4.0 is known to work).
You can still use valgrind when this option is not given,
but you will have memory that is not released and the
memory pools show as a single block.
With this vvp is 100% clean for many of the tests in the
test suite. There are still a few things that need to be
cleaned up, but it should be much easier to find any real
leaks now.
Enabling this causes a negligible increase in run time and
memory. The memory could be a problem for very large
simulations. The increase in run time is only noticeable on
very short simulations where it should not matter.
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.
This patch adds non-blocking event control for array words.
It also fixes a problem where the word used to put the
calculated delay for a non-blocking array assignment was
not being released. It also fixes the non-blocking array
assignments to correctly handle off the end/beginning part
selects.
This patch adds full event control for vectors and parts of a
vector. It also fixes the other non-blocking part select code
to correctly handle a negative offset ([1:-2] of a [4:0] will
have an offset of -2).
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.
Add a vvp_event_anyedge class to handle the special
case of .event statements of edge type. This also
frees the posedge/negedge types to handle all 4 inputs.
Implement table functor recv_vec4 method to receive
and process vectors.
