Rather then spread VERSION= defines throughout all the makefiles, put
the base version in version_base.in. Use that to generate a version.h
that includes the base version as well as the detailed version.
This reverts commit 31d67fcd3e.
The concensus has been that this causes too many build problems in
the general case and what is needed instead is a way to turn on the
extra warnings for developers only.
The code base is almost shadow-free now, so this won't add much noise to the compiles.
Problems I know about:
lxt{,2}_write.c: patch sent upstream
cflexor.c: exposes gray area of name space boundary
Continue cleaning up shadowed variables, flagged by turning on -Wshadow.
No intended change in functionality. Patch looks right, and is tested
to compile and run on my machine. No regressions in test suite.
This patch set covers C code, with the notable exception of
vpi/lxt_write{,2}.c.
This patch cleans up the Makefile.in files.
We only need to delete config.log in the lower directories.
We reference the *.in files at $(srcdir)/
We need to make distclean for the tgt-(fpga,pal,verilog) directories.
This is to cleanup the Makefile.
Add some missing "rm -r f dep"
Collapse all the configure checks to a single configure script in
the root of the source tree. This makes the configure process run
a lot faster, expecially on Windows systems that are slower in general.
Remove the #ident and $Log$ strings from all the header files and
almost all of the C/C++ source files. I think it is better to get
this done all at once, then to wait for each of the files to be
touched and edited in unrelated patches.
The disciplines are, from the perspective of the ivl target, collected
into the design. Add functions for the target to scan the disciplines
in the design.
In the process, also clean up the handlng of design constants.
This configure option causes the installed commands to have
a suffix string that makes them distinct from other versions
that also have a suffix string. This allows for multiple
installed versions of Icarus Verilog.
Also, move installed C/C++ header files into a subdirectory of
their own under the target include directory, to make clearer
the purpose and source of those files.
This includes enough API to get the branch nexus bits and signals
and show them in the dump. This also includes creating the reference
ground for branch access functions that use the implicit ground.
Signals may have VMA disciplines attached. Make the attached discipline
visible through the ivl_target.h API. Also, re-arrange the internal
handling of the discipline structure so that we can expose disciplines
through the ivl_target C API without creating new structures. The
t-dll-api implementations of the discipline access functions can look
at the elaborated discipline structure directly. This is possible since
the discipline parse and elaboration are very simple.
When a multiply expression is IVL_VT_REAL, then the default width is
the width of the operands, and not the sum of the operands. In fact, it
should turn out to be 1.
Also, the width of the multiply expression when we get to the ivl_target
API, need not be the sum of the widths of its arguments. In fact, if the
arguments are signed, that would be completely wrong. So adjust the
stub target to properly test this constraint.
Widths of real values are always 1. When paired with vectorable types
in expressions, the vectorable type is processed as losslessly self-
determined. ("unsized" in the test_width methods.)
Signals of a nexus must have types that exactly match, but the drivers
of a signal nexus have slightly more subtle rules for the case where
the signal is IVL_VT_LOGIC. Express those rules in the function
check_signal_drive_type, and use it to check the type of constants
driving a signal.
The true and false expression clauses must have compatible types,
which are not necesarily identical. In particular, VT_BOOL and
VT_LOGIC are compatible for the purposes of ternary arguments. The
test in NetETernary::synthesize was incorrect.
In the process, fix the type handling of NetConst objects to allow
for IVL_VT_BOOL constants. This is information that the downstream
may find useful, so should be handled correctly.
When the -V flag is passed to the iverilog command, we can easily
print the version information for the driver itself, but it is also
valuable to probe all the components that would have been used for
a real compile. So the driver executes the preprocessor and the ivl
core to have them print version information.
The ivl core program also tries to load the target code generator
and get version information to print. For this to work, create a new
optional entry point "target_query" that takes a query key string as
an argument and returns a const string as the result. Use this with
the key "version" to get version information out of the target.
Target selection is done by the DLL target code generator, so there
is no value having a layer of target selection ahead of it. Remove
all that redundant code and simplify the target config files to reflect
this.
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.
This patch pushes the automatic property for both tasks and
functions to the code generators. The vvp back end does not
currently support this so it will error out during code
generation. The VHDL back end should be able to use this
property and tgt-stub prints the property. Having this will
also make it easier when we do adding this to the runtime.
The NetBranch object is connected, but not like an object, so the
NetPins object base class is factored out from NetObj to handle the
connectivity, and the NetBranch class uses the NetPins to connect a
branch.
Also, account for the fact that nets with a discipline are by default
real-valued.
Detect function call expressions that turn out to be calls to the
access function of a nature. Elaborate the access function and stub
the emit code. This gets the access function just short of the code
generator.
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.
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 draw_net_input function is modified to account for nexus that is
a port of an island. Draw the ports (and the islands if necessary)
to the island and use the port output for the nexus instead of the
port input. This allows the bi-directional behavior of the port to
interpose itself in the data flow.
In this process of these changes, the draw_net_input function was
reorganized, and all the considerable amount of code for it was
moved to a file of its own. (vvp_scope.c is pretty unruly.)
This involves defining the API for switches and cleaning up the
elaborated form to match the defined ivl_target API. Also add t-dll
code to support the ivl_switch_t functions, and add stub code that
checks the results.
The MinGW system() implementation appears to return the straight
return value instead of the waitpid() like result that more
normal systems return. Because of this just return the system()
result without processing for MinGW compilations.
Older version of the MinGW runtime (pre 3.14) just used the
underlying vsnprintf(). Which has some problems. The 3.14 version
has some nice improvements, but it has a sever bug when processing
"%*.*f", -1, -1, <some_real_value>. Because of this we need to use
the underlying version without the enhancements for now.
snprintf prints %p differently than the other printf routines
so use _snprintf to get consistent results.
Only build the PDF files if both man and ps2pdf exist.
MinGW does not know about the z modifier for %d, %u, etc.
Add some missing Makefile check targets.
The elaborator improperly allowed user function call nodes to take on
the expression width requested of them. The result was that generated
code had junk pad bits in certain cases.
In continuous assign expressions, the abs() operator can't easily be
burried in generic unary handling, so add the IVL_LPM_ABS type and
generate it as needed.
This patch adds ifnone functionality. It does not produce an
error when both an ifnone and an unconditional simple module
path are given. For this case the ifnone delays are ignored.
Case-generate alternatives create sub-scopes that need to be scanned
by the scope scanner in order to get function definitions etc. that
are defined lexically within generated scopes.
When used in continuous assignments, user defined functions may have
delayed output. Handle that by generating the proper .delay node when
needed to delay the output of a .ufunc node.
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.
Delay paths need a scope. This helps the code generators bind the
modpaths to the correct scope. This patch doesn't actually make use
of the information, it just makes it available to code generators.

In expressions, user defined functions have a clearly defined
width and the test_width expression needs to express that. Note
that the $signed/$unsigned functions are special and magical.

Variable word addresses are not to be adjusted by the bit select
of the vector direction. That is a holdover from when arrays were
stored as bit vectors.

This patch adds ivl_scope_time_precision() to the compiler which can
be used to extract the local scope precision. tgt-stub and tgt-vvp
have been modified to use this new function and output a value that
is appropriate. The vvp runtime has been altered to use this new
data which is accessed with the vpip_time_precision_from_handle()
function. vpiTimePrecision uses this function to return the correct
precision.
Add code to handle all the primitives currently defined and
