Entity generics are easily implemented as module parameters, so make
it so. Give the parameters their default values from the generic declaration.
Array bounds may use values that cannot be evaluated right away, so
put off their evaluation.
Add an implementation for the enumeration name() method. This currently
only works if the context defines the return width (e.g. the result is
assigned to a variable). It does not work in a self-determined context
(e.g. as an argument to a system function or in a comparison). This is
a limitation in the compiler/code generator/run time not the method
implementation provided here. We may need full string support to make
this work 100%.
The standard defines how to calculate the name for an access function
or iterator if one is not given. It is supposed to be vpi followed by
the words in the name with each word capitalized. For the one to many
(iterator) interface from the enumeration typespec to the individual
constants this is vpiEnumConst not vpiMember.
Rework the actual next() and prev() methods to correctly process the
numeric count argument. Also rework the compiletf routine to give better
error messages and combine the call routine for the two methods.
Add a compiletf routine that checks the arguments and then report that
the name() method is not currently implemented.
We don't currently have the information needed to correctly provide the
base typespec, but in the next() and prev() methods I need to know if
the enumeration is two or four state. This patch sets the base typespec
for four state enumerations to vpiReg and to vpiBitVar for two state
enumerations. This provide enough information to get next() and prev()
working correctly.
This patch adds vpiEnumTypespec to the list so that vpi_get_str(vpiType, ...)
returns an appropriate string when an enum type is passed.
It also adds the initial hook to allow iteration (global) over the UDP
definitions. This along with table traversal will be needed to free the
memory allocated when the UDP definition is created. Ultimately this
will all the UDP test to be valgrind clean.
The PLI tf_getlongsimtime() function is a non-standard function provided
for compatibility with some commercial simulators. To match the behaviour
of those simulators, it should return the raw simulation time, not a
scaled time.
The vpiDecStrVal case for the get_numeric() function needs to use the
existing string width as the minimum result size. -1 can be represented as
a signed value with a width of 1. This gives a display width of -1 which
is too small for the -1 string value. This was creating valgrind issues.
In general the string value should be the minimum so this is a safe change.
If a constant is padded the original constant will be freed and replaced
with a new one. This results in the ce pointer pointing to freed memory.
In reality the second check only needs to be done if the first one is
false so avoid the whole issue by only performing the second check if
the first on is false.
If a wait statement has a constant argument then the mode must be defined
before test_width() is called since the current mode is used in the
PENumber test_width routine.
Add code to allow an enumeration method to be called as a function.
This is only the compiler support. The runtime support is still missing
so only an empty argument call will succeed (e.g. next(), etc.). For now
the rest get a warning message.
Update the line number for a couple cppcheck suppressions and add one for
the pool variable in the vvp directory.
Also move a check for null to the correct place.
This patch makes the code consistently use struct/class in the C++ files,
it removes a couple shadow warnings and where a class pointer is passed to
the C routines, it defines the pointer as a class for C++ and as struct for
C and it removes a namespace std duplication.
This patch updates the $scanf and $printtimescale routines to work with
two-state variables. It also updates the general is_numeric check to
recognize two-state variables as numeric.
Modify the $random code to allow the seed to be either an int, long or
bit that is 32 bits or longer. The 32 bit check is new and also applies
to reg/logic variables.
