The -gno-specify flag should only control the delay and timing checks.
It should not also remove the specparams since they can be used outside
of a specify block.
The IEEE standard states that the port expressions used for arrays
of primitive gates must be the exact width required, but is silent
about the requirements for single instances. The consensus among
other simulators is that for input ports of single instances, the
expression is silently truncated to a single bit.
This patch also fixes a compiler crash if an error is found when
elaborating a primitive gate port expression.
Keep the entity/component/module port declarations in the module port
list of the generated code. This clarifies the generated code and
fixes a couple bugs for more complicated types.
R-value expressions are more general then L-value expressions, in that
the expression type may be a bit more complex. If the R-value expression
is part of an assignment, then elaborate with the constrained type from
the L-value. In other cases, where the expression type is not as obvious,
use expression type probes to figure out the type of the expression and
elaborate using that calculated type.
This patch adds code to properly calculate the type and width of a
specparam when it is used in an expression.
This patch also fixes a compiler crash when an unknown identifier is
used in a delay expression.
Icarus is not actually fast enough to run into this issue in a
reasonable amount of time. I discovered this by thinking about
the algorithm and verified the fix with custom code.
If a relative path name is passed to the Windows LoadModule function,
it is applied in turn to each path in the DLL search path. For the
ivl_dlopen function, we actually want to mimic the Unix behaviour,
where a relative path is relative to the current working directory.
On systems where the KB2264107 security fix has been applied, the
CWD is excluded from the DLL search path, so we no longer get the
required behaviour. This patch reworks the ivl_dlopen function to
give the correct behaviour under Windows.
This patch also adds a flush of the stderr stream after reporting
VPI call errors. This fixes a race between the stdout and stderr
streams when running the regression tests in a MinGW shell.
VHDL doesn't have a direct way to express "always @(posedge...)"
statements, but we do want to detect common paradigms that naturally
translate. This makes for a better translation.
Entity output ports may be used as l-values in a process within
the bound architecture. Detect that case during elaboration and
adjust the signal declaration so that it works in the Verilog pass.
Infrastructure for debug and emit of sequential statements in processes.
This does not properly handle the actual semantics of the behavioral
code, but it provides an infrastructure where we can handle all the
tricky elaboration to come.
Get to the point where our sample program parses completely, and
the sequential statements generate SequentialStmt objects and a
process object in the architecture.
Also add a few missing expression types.
The code should be able to correctly parse any command string and
assign the appropriate values from the file to a structure that will
be used to add the information to the table structure.
snprintf() copies at most N characters, but the string may not be
terminated correctly. This patch uses sizeof() so that the snprintf()
call matches the size of the buffer and adds code to insert a NULL as
the last character of the string.
Added an explicit option prefix="yy" to files that were generated
without an explicit -P.
This makes the lex-generated symbol names self contained without any
help from from build system.
The const fixes for lxt_write.c were never pushed to GTKWave so
they were lost in a later sync with GTKWave. These changes have
now been pushed to GTKWave.
If there are attributes attached to a module port declaration them
pform_bind_attribute() which is called from pform_module_define_port()
will delete the attribute list. They do not need to be deleted locally.
To get the correct definition for _FILE_OFFSET_SIZE we must include
the header that loads this before calling the other system headers.
This patch also fixes a minor spacing issues.
After some more thought I believe it is better for $q_full to return
'bx instead of 2 when $q_full is given an invalid id. This will make
the typical full/not full checks both return false. We still return
an error code in the status variable.
This patch adds preliminary support for implementing the $table_model()
function for Verilog-A. It is not currently functional, but the VPI
interface routines and data file parsing are mostly complete. The big
things left are building the data structures and adding the interpolation
and extrapolation routines.
We also need to fix vvp to identify constant strings/parameters in a
structural context.
This patch adds the ability to print a constant string in a
structural context. It also fixes the argument order for
structural function calls and makes a few improvements in
nexus identification.
This patch adds code to the compiler so that a constant string
in a structural context can maintain the string property. This
is needed but not currently implemented in vvp (it's still
converted to a number). A pending patch for the vlog95 target
does use this new information.
This patch adds support for calculating the average queue wait
time. This is accomplished by keeping two 64 bit values that
represent the high and low total wait time for all previous
queue elements. The current wait time for any elements still
in the queue are added to this total. The wait time total is
then divided by the total number of items added to the queue.
Significant rework of scope management to unify the handling of
types in the ieee library and types/constants/components in packages.
This involved adjusting the parser rules to manage a stack of scopes
and rewriting the IEEE library support to not use global maps for
the loaded types.
If the right hand operand of a shift is a signed vector value, it
is coerced to an unsigned value. This needs to be allowed for when
estimating the width expansion caused by a shift in a lossless
expression.
The power operator defines 2**-1 and -2**-1 to be zero. This patch fixes
both the procedural and continuous assignments to work correctly. It also
fixes a problem in the compiler power code so that the one constant value
always has at least two bits.
This patch adds support for calculating the queue mean inter-arrival
time. This is just the latest add time minus the first add time
divided by the number of intervals (the number of adds minus one).
This patch adds full support for the stochastic tasks/functions except
the mean inter-arrival and average wait statistics are not currently
available. These will be added in a later patch. This implementation
goes a bit beyond the standard and supports the following:
1. The job and inform arguments support 32 bit four state values.
2. The id for all routines, the job and inform arguments for $q_add(),
the statistic code for $q_exam() along with the queue type and
maximum length arguments for $q_initialize() can be less than or
equal to 32 bits. The argument will be sign extended if needed to
fill the internal 32 bit value.
3. The job and inform arguments to $q_remove() and the status argument
for all the routines must be 32 bits, but do not have to be an
integer variable (e.g. a 32 bit register or part select is OK).
4. An undefined bit in the id argument for any of the routines will
return a status of 2 (undefined queue id). Undefined bits are not
automatically converted to zero.
5. Undefined bits in the $q_initialize() queue type and maximum
length arguments or the $q_exam() statistic code argument are also
flagged as an error (are not converted to zero).
6. The $q_full() function returns 2 on error, the other routines that
return a value $q_remove() job/inform arguments and the $q_exam()
statistic value argument will usually return x on error.
7. An invalid statistic code will set the $q_exam() status to 8.
8. The $q_exam() statistic value argument can be 32 bits or larger.
This allows returning large statistical time values.
9. All time values are internally saved in simulation time units.
They will be converted to the calling module's time unit (with
rounding) before they are returned.
10. If a $q_exam() statistical value is too large to fit into the
variable the maximum positive value will be returned and the
status code will be set to 9 (value is too large).
11. If a statistical value is currently undefined $q_exam() will
return 10 (no statistical information) (e.g. using code 5 on an
empty queue).
