Nothing to do with tab width! Eliminates useless
trailing spaces and tabs, and nearly all <space><tab>
pairings. No change to derived files (e.g., .vvp),
non-master files (e.g., lxt2_write.c) or the new tgt-vhdl
directory.
Low priority, simple entropy reduction. Please apply
unless it deletes some steganographic content you want
to keep.
The right shift of vvp_vector2_t needs to
account for and mask off shifted bits. Otherwise
there will be unexpected results after
a vvp_vector2_t::trim method.
Assume that anything that is strength aware already handles a
recv_vec8_pv and make the default function convert the bits
to a vec4 and then call recv_vec4_pv with this new value.
This patch adds support for vpiScaledRealTime and vpiSuppressTime
to VPI callbacks. It also fixes a bug where the callback data
object was not being copied correctly and adds support for
vpiSuppressVal. This requires adding vpiSuppressVal to a few
other routines. It adds the ability for a callback to return
more than vpiScalarVal (all values supported by the
vpip_vec4_get_value() procedure). It also fixes a bug where
vpip_vec4_get_value() would incorrectly return vpiZ for a BIT4_X
scalar value. It also comments the potentially dangerous
vpiScalarVal calculation in the vvp_fun_signal::get_value()
procedure.
This patch causes a thread that is created to evaluate a function
to be executed immediately. The parent thread is resumed when the
function thread terminates.
When multiply is done in native words, the conversion to words from the
vp_vector4_t vectors must be done signed. This only matters if the
input operands are different sizes (and themselves signed) but will
not hurt even if we want an unsigned result.
Logical (in)equality needs to look at all the bits of both operands,
and cannot short circuit the test unless defined bits differ. If there
are undefined bits, the equality is undefined at that point, but return
x only if there are not other bits that make the results clearly
unequal.
The double to vvp_vector4_t constructor was not using the correct
declaration for the bit words. This worked as long as unsigned and
unsigned long were the same size (usually).
The new real to int conversion was incorrectly setting the
bits for minus infinity to all ones. This is incorrect in a
two's complement encoding where the largest negative number
would be a leading 1 followed by an infinite number of zeros.
This patch updates the %cvt/vr command to use the new double to vector
constructor. This allows the resulting bit pattern to be larger than
a long. The old method was producing incorrect results without a
warning for large bit values.
This patch makes .part/pv strength aware, resolv vec8_pv
aware. vvp_net_fun_t adds vec8_pv as a virtual function
with an appropriate error default. vvp_fun_signal should
full support vec8_pv (not tested and may not be needed).
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.
This patch changes the base oct to string converter to correctly
pad the top digit. x or xx should display as a single lower case
x when they are located in the top bits. Before these were being
interpreted as 00x or 0xx and displayed X. Also modified the hex
conversion to use this same scheme instead of a loop.
First, handle the trivial (but possibly common) resolution cases in
inlined code, and only call the complete function for the complicated
cases. Then clean up the complex function for readability, and account
for the constraints that the front-end function established.
Arrays of vvp_vector4_t values redundantly store some fields in every
word. Create a special type that stores vvp_vector4_t values in a form
that does not duplicate the width of all the items. This can save a lot
of space when big memories are simulated.
The schedule_assign_plucked_vector is a better way to implement the
schedule_assign_vector, or at least no worse, so remove the now
redundent schedule_assign_vector.
It is legal (though worthy of a warning, I think) for the part select
of an l-value to me out of bounds, so replace the error message with
a warning, and generate the appropriate code. In the process, clean
up some of the code for signal l-values to divide out the various kinds
of processing that can be done. This cleans things up a bit.
The load-and-add for vectors %load/vp0/s can be combined with the
load-and-add for array words, and the %load/avp0/s added to round
out the combinations. This can make for fewer instructions when
words are padded in arithmetic expressions.
The functor_ref_lookup() function fills its argument in with the
vvp_net_t* pointer that matches the var name, so there is no need
to create the vvp_net_t object before then.
The vpiIndex is really just a different view into the same object,
so implement the trickery needed to support a vpiIndex with the
absolute minimum memory cost.
The %load/vp0 instruction adds a signed value to the signal value being
loaded, but it doesn't allow for a signed source vector. Add the
%load/vp0/s instruction that pads the loaded vector, and add the code
generator details to properly use it.
The vvp_net_fun_t objects, and derived objects, are small, and are
created in large quantities. Tightly pack them into permanently
allocated space in order to save on system allocation overhead, and
thus save overall on memory.
The part select of a vector is converted by the compiler during
elaboration to a 0-based canonical address. But since it is legal
to address bits below the LSB, the canonical address can be negative.
So make the part select base for selecting from signals work with
signed arithmetic and make the code generator generate negative
indices when needed.
Scheduler cells are small objects that come and go in great quantities.
Even though they are allocated and deallocated a lot, they tend to a
steady state quantity, so put together a heap that is unique for each
cell type.
This heap actually saves memory overall because cells are allocated in
chunks, thus eliminating allocator overhead, and they are pulled/pushed
from/to a heap very quickly so that what overhead remains is slight and
bounded.
The vvp_net_t objects are never deleted, so overload the new operator
to do a more space efficient permanent allocation.
The %assign/v instruction copied the vvp_vector4_t object needlessly
on its way to the scheduler. Eliminate that duplication.(cherry picked from commit d0f303463d)
The vvp_vector8_t constructor and destructor involve memory allocation
so it is best to pass these objects by reference as much as possible.
Also have the islands take more care not to perform resolution if the
inputs aren't really different.
NOTE: This is a port of commit 2f4e5bf5b6
from the "performance" branch, without the resolver scheduling changes.
This was causing test suite variances with pr1820472.v. It looks like
there might be a race in that program anyhow, but for now leave out the
resolver scheduling changes so that the rest of this commit can go in.
The __vpiPV objects express themselves as vpiPartSelect objects.
Add support for value change callbacks by attaching the callback
to the signal that we part select from.
The %load/v instruction was doing some spurious resizes of the vector
that comes from the signal. Eliminate those resizes that can be
removed, and optimize some that remain.
This is not a solution to all the problems, but is a better catch-all
then what is currently there. Allow the index field to be a T<> that
accesses the thread to get the address index.
Note that the lexor.lex currently returns the T<> as a T_SYMBOL, and the
users of T_SYMBOL objects need to interpret the meaning. This is
probably not the best idea, in light of all the other *<> formats that
now exist.
If a memory word was accessed before it was defined the
code was returning a zero width vector result. Now it
returns an appropriately sized vector of 'x'.
The memory opcodes %assign/mv, %load/mv and %set/mv
were removed by a previous patch. This one removes
the documentation from opcodes.txt. It also removes
the documentation for the .mem* statements for the
same reason.
Recursive branch resolution was scanning every branch end, even though
many branch ends share ports and need not be repeatedly scanned. Handle
marks and flags to cut off recursion where it is not needed so as to
save much run time.
Conflicts:
tgt-vvp/vvp_scope.c
Note that the draw_net_input.c takes in a lot of the codes that used
to be in vvp_scope.c, so some changes may have been lost.
This patch cleans up the dump routines and adds file and
line number information for errors. It also adds some of
the missing MemoryWord properties so they can now be
dumped and monitored correctly.
This patch adds $simparam and $simparam$str from Verilog-A.
The analog simulator parameters return 0.0 or N/A. The
vvp_cpu_wordsize system function has been moved into the
$simparam call and is now named CPUWordSize.
This patch also starts the factoring of common code in the
vpi directory. Some routines were renamed.
The priv.c file was renamed to sys_priv.c to match the
include file.
System functions can now have strings put to their output.
Fold the bi-directional part select into the pass switch (tran) support
so that it can be really bi-directional. This involves adding a new
tranvp device that does part select in tran islands, and reworking the
tran island resolution to handle non-identical nodes. This will be needed
for resistive tran devices anyhow.
The vvp_island classes are added, as well as support for tranif nodes
that use this concept. The result is a working implementation for
tranif0 and tranif1.
In the process, the symbol table functions were cleaned up and made
into templates for better type safety, and the vvp_net_ptr_t was
generalized so that it can be used by the branches in the island
implementation.
Also fix up the array handling to use the better symbol table support,
and to remember to clear its own table when linking is done.
The multiply runs does not need to do all the combinations of digit
products, because the higher ones cannot add into the result. Fix the
iteration to limit the scan.
