This patch adds a trace command to the interactive prompt that can be
used to control statement tracing when the code is instrumented (has
%file_line opcodes).
In ivl_alloc.h we redefine malloc(), realloc() and calloc() to have
standard error checking. We don't want to do this for anything that
comes from the standard headers. This specifically doesn't work if
a C++ header files does std::malloc, etc.
Also change to -W instead of -Wextra since that is more portable. I
plan to add a check from -Wextra and use it when available since it
is more descriptive.
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.
This patch adds two new opcodes and the infrastructure needed to call
system functions as tasks. The normal %vpi_call will generate an error
if a system function is called as a task. %vpi_call/w will generate a
warning and will ignore any value returned by the function. %vpi_call/i
will ignore the system function return value and will not print a
message. Adding this is a feature request and is supported in
SystemVerilog. Next I need to add flags to control this depending on
the compiler generation and possibly other flags.
I may leave the cast to void (%vpi_call/i) functionality unimplemented
for now.
The functions (malloc, free, etc.) that used to be provided in
malloc.h are now provided in cstdlib for C++ files and stdlib.h for
C files. Since we require a C99 compliant compiler it makes sense
that malloc.h is no longer needed.
This patch also modifies all the C++ files to use the <c...>
version of the standard C header files (e.g. <cstdlib> vs
<stdlib.h>). Some of the files used the C++ version and others did
not. There are still a few other header changes that could be done,
but this takes care of much of it.
Added support for the -N option, which causes $stop and ^C to behave
like $finish with an exit code of 1.
While I was at it, I noticed that the summary line in the man page for
vvp was missing a couple of options, so I fixed that.
It looks pretty stupid and non-c++-y, but it does remove two compiler warnings
vvp/stop.cc: In function 'void stop_handler(int)':
vvp/stop.cc:492: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*'
vvp/stop.cc:493: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*'
This patch adds code to automatically dump the output stream
including any dump file when entering interactive mode. When
the user typed ^C or $stop was executed.
This patch adds interactive support for $stop and $finish.
$stop displays a message that the simulator is already stopped.
$finish acts exactly like (calls) the interactive "finish"
command. Having $stop do nothing and $finish not finish until
you exit interactive mode is not very intuitive.
When adding history (add_history) use both the existence of the
library and the header file to determine if history can be
supported. Add a new USE_HISTORY that is the and of these two.
To get the correct print format for a 64 bit value it is much
better to use <inttypes.h> (when available) than building our
own value. This allows MinGW to use the non-standard I64.
(cherry picked from commit d237e35076)
This patch adds a new flag to vvp "-n" that can be used to make
$stop and hence <Control-C> act like $finish. This may be desired
when using vvp in a non-interactive environment.
Add the vpiFile and vpiLineNo properties to system functions.
Most other objects have stubs that return "N/A"/0. Interactive
functions (called from the debugger) use <interactive> for the
file name.
Use the new array VPI functionality (vpiIndex, vpiParent, vpiArray)
to dynamically generate array word names. The old patch to implement
was mostly reverted.
