If this assert fires, the "this" pointer we pass to it will be a
null pointer, so will cause a null pointer dereference. We've
tested it is not null earlier, so we don't need the assertion.
When using the latest mingw64 header files, rpcndr.h (which is indiretly
included by windows.h) defines a type named "byte" which collides with a
definition in cpp_type_traits.h (included indirectly by the STL). This is
only a problem if "using namespace std" is declared prior to including
windows.h.
For non-ANSI port declarations that have both a port declaration and
a corresponding variable declaration, the signed attribute may be
attached to either the port declaration or the variable declaration,
or both declarations.
This also ensures the same genvar cannot be used in two nested loops
(issue #533), because the implicit localparam with the same name
shadows the genvar declaration.
This requires us to make a copy of the typedefs map when adding it to
a NetScope object, because the pform data is deleted before we are
finished with it.
The IEEE standard specifies that the numbering of generate blocks
restarts at 1 in each new scope, and that the 'else' part of an 'if'
construct is part of the same constuct, so has the same number.
This eliminates some indeterminism in the error messages, which was
causing occasional failures in CI. We don't expect this list to be
very large, so the O(n) insertion time should not be a problem.
A module port list may contain unnamed entries, e.g.
module dut(a,);
When performing a wildcard connection, these entries should be skipped,
as there is no name to match.
The old implementation connected all inputs to the same vvp_net_t port,
on the basis that we don't care about the data values or what port they
arrived on. But if one or more of the inputs fans out to multiple nets,
the chains get tangled, which either results in connections being lost
or inappropriate connections being made, depending on the order that
the inputs are linked.
This could have been fixed by using a standard wide functor. But as we
don't care about the data values, that would be unnecessary overhead.
We just need separate vvp_net_t objects to handle the input connectivity
and can keep using a single shared functor.
This is needed for the waveform dumpers now that vpi_iterate(vpiModule, NULL)
has been ficed to only return modules.
This includes recognising vpiProgram and vpiInterface, although the compiler
and vvp currently incorrectly classify them as modules.
(replacing assertions)
The IEEE standard either requires out-of-bounds bits to be ignored on
write, returned as 1'bx on read, or requires a compile-time error message.
The latter is easier to implement.
If we have a bit/part select that is selecting one or more sub-arrays, e.g.
wire [3:0][3:0] foo;
assign foo[1] = 4'd1;
we need to take into account the bit width of the sub-array when calculating
the bit width of the select.
The code assumed all handles stored in vpip_root_table were modules. This
is true for traditional Verilog, but not so for SystemVerilog.
Whilst here, also add support for iterating over packages.
To correctly restore the file name and line number after including a
file or expanding a macro, the preprocessor needs to be aware of the
changes introduced by `line directives. The `line directive still
needs to be passed on to the main compiler so it can track the
changes too.
To avoid duplicate error messages, the preprocessor silently ignores
invalid `line directives, relying on the main compiler to report the
errors.
