__CYGWIN32__ is not defined when building with the 64-bit Cygwin
toolchain. According to the Cygwin FAQ, __CYGWIN__ has been defined
since 1998, so this should still work for users on 32-bit systems.
The unique, unique0, and priority keywords can decorate case statements
to tell the run time (or synthesis) to do extra tests (or make extra
assumptions). These tests are not implemented in the vvp run time, but
now the decorations make it to the code generators.
The signed version of the power operation in vvp should only be used
if the exponent is signed. Both signed and unsigned versions will
produce the correct result regardless of the type of the base operand,
provided it has been appropriately extended to the result size.
The .scope needs to be aware of return types so that the %call/vec4
function knows how to intialize the return value. We also need to
extend the %ret/vec4 to support writing parts of the return value.
Changes so "Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2015 RC Web" could build it without a bunch of runtime errors and crashes during regression testing. When declaring an bitfield variable of type enum in a struct, the enum has to have an underlying integer type for MSVC++ when compiling a C++ file, and for these cases, it had to be unsigned integer for everything to work okay during regression testing.
When for example assigning to foo[<x>] within a contitional, and
doing synthesis, we need to create a NetSubstitute device to manage
the l-value bit selects.
This generates an EQZ LPM device that carries the case-z-ness to
the code generator.
Also add to the vvp code generator support for the EQZ device so
that the synthesis results can be simulated.
Account for the wildcard devices in the sizer.
This allows for syntax like a.b.c where a is a class with member
b, which is a class with member c, and so on. The handling is mostly
for the support of compound objects like classes.
Emit the elaborated class methods. Also generate root scopes to
represent the classes in order to hold the methods. These scopes
can also in the future be used to implement static properties.
This provides the ivl_target.h interface for class definitions
and expressions, the vvp code generator support for class objects
and properties, and the vvp run time support. Trivial class objects
now seem to work.
Add properties to the classes, and elaborate expressions that
have class properties. Describe class object property references
all the way down to the stub target.
Added: basic vpiPort VPI Objects for vpiModulkes
vpiDirection, vpiPortIndex, vpiName, vpiSize attributes
Since ports do not exist as net-like entities (nets either side
module instance boundaries are in effect connect directly in
the language front-ends internal representation) the port information
is effectively just meta-data passed through t-dll interface and
output as a additional annotation of module scopes in vvp.
Added: vpiLocalParam attribute for vpiParameter VPI objects
Added: support build for 32-bit target on 64-bit host (--with-m32
option to configure.in and minor tweaks to Makefiles and systemc-vpi).
