This was incorrectly using the expression sign not checking if
the two sub-expressions are both signed. This likely used to
work, but in the context of $signed which sets the expression
to signed so we can have a signed expression without both
sub-expressions being signed.
These methods are type specific, but the code that invokes them
get at them from pointers to filter objects, so it makes sense to
make them abstract methods of the vvp_net_fil_t class.
An implicit sensitivity list that has selects (bit, part, indexed
part or array) will include more than the user expects so print a
warning to let them know what will happen. Other simulators have
the same behavior, but I believe this is incorrect and needs to
be fixed to only include the appropriate parts. The warnings can
go when we fix this functionality, but we need them now to warn
the user that they may not be getting what they expect. One other
simulator warns for array selects.
This patch also adds the array index to the sensitivity list.
This patch fixes a number of bugs related to real variable and net
arrays. Specifically the following:
1. When iterating over (scanning) a net array start at base index 0
not index 1.
2. Don't fail when iterating over (scanning) a real variable array.
3. Run the array_word_change() routine when a real variable array
word is changed. This allows array ports and value change
callbacks to work correctly.
4. Update the array_word_change() routine to work with real variable
arrays.
5. Update the array port code to support real variable arrays.
6. find_name() needs to also iterate over net array words just like
memory array words.
7. Initialize all real array words to 0.0 when the array is created.
This patch removes some of the unneeded differences in the
various dumper routines. This is the start of a complete
refactoring, but the first task is to make them as common
as possible and this is the start of that.
When processing procedural real expressions we need to evaluate
non-real sub-expressions as bit based expressions and then
convert the result to a real value. This is particularly import
for integer division.
This patch changes the initial buffer size when displaying results
to 512 from 256. This initial buffer is used as the default for the
floating point results and failed when %f is given a large, but
valid value. To make this even more safe we add the precision to
the size to make sure we do not overflow the buffer.
This patch cleans up some unneeded code. Releases some allocated
memory before the compiler quits and fixes a couple minor memory
leaks in the compiler and vvp code generator.
Added support for the -N option, which causes $stop and ^C to behave
like $finish with an exit code of 1.
While I was at it, I noticed that the summary line in the man page for
vvp was missing a couple of options, so I fixed that.
The fd table used to be statically allocated with only 32 entries.
Three of these were preallocated for stdin, stdout and stderr
leaving only 29 for the user. This patch makes the allocation of
this table dynamic with a hard limit at 1024 total fds. The table
is increased in 32 bit chunks.
Someone got a bit too creative in reducing the original equations
I wrote to handle this. This patch reverts the previous code and
uses my original equations. This passes for both wide and narrow
vectors. The equations are slightly more complicated, but the old
z2x conversion had some overhead. I would expect the time to be
about the same, but you now get the correct results.
This patch adds code to parse and ignore the following timing checks:
$nochange 1364-1995
$skew 1364-1995
$fullskew 1364-2001
$removal 1364-2001
$timeskew 1364-2001
The other checks were already supported. These have not been tested,
but they use the same basic terms as the other checks. We can fully
test these when we actually implement them.
This patch adds -g2001-noconfig command line flag. The compiler
already supported this with `begin_keywords. Document this in
the manual page and fix a few other issues.
Fix endgenerate to be a 2001 keyword and add a few missing
keywords at the appropriate standard level e.g.(unsigned).
Add uwire and deprecate wone. wone used to just convert without
a warning to a wire. uwire will display a warning that it is
being converted to a wire without a check. wone is converted to
a uwire with a warning and then prints the uwire message. The
uwire message will be replaced with a real check fairly soon.
During macro expansion (with arguments), there is one global buffer
(exp_buf) that keeps getting reallocated to fit all the macro's text
that's currently being expanded. The problem with this scheme is that if
a macro with arguments needs to be expanded from the macro text of another
macro with arguments, it may happen that the second expansion forces
the above exp_buf buffer to be reallocated. Which is fine until the
previous macro processing resumes where (struct include_stack_t *)->str
now points to uninitialised memory. Basically, the code that can trigger
such behaviour is as follows:
`define FOO(a) (a+3)
`define BAR(b) (`FOO(b)+2)
`BAR(x)
Ofcourse, you need to get lucky to get the exp_buf to be realloced at the
right point, but it's possible.
I don't see the advantage in keeping all the expanding macro's text
together, so my solution is to simply allocate a new buffer and pass it
as (struct include_stack_t *)->str to the flex parsing function and free
it at the end.
Icarus has recognized this directive, but it did not do anything
with the information. This patch adds the functionality for most
common cases. It adds this by changing the input net type from
wire/tri to tri1 or tri0 depending on the pull. The issue is that
if the input net is not a wire or tri this is not safe and should
really be done as an external pull gate connected to the input.
We will need to handle this is it ever comes up. For now a sorry
message is printed.
Previously Icarus only supported a default net type of wire or none.
This patch adds the rest of the supported net types (all except
uwire and trireg) to the `default_nettype directive. It also fixes
make_implicit_net_() to use the default_nettype instead of always
using implicit (the same as wire).
This patch reworks the `timescale directive to do a better
job of parsing the line, it refactors some of the code and
should produce better error messages. It also tightens up
parsing the numeric constant, etc. to better match the
Verilog standard.
The parsing of `line has been enhanced to only allow 0, 1 or
2 for the level and a single line comment at the end of the
line is ignored.
The vvp_fun_force node converts its input to a call to the
force method of the target node. This eliminates the need for
linking a net to a force input of a signal.
The vvp_net_t port 2 was used to implement force behavior, but that
is no longer how we plan to implement force, so remove it from the
implementation of signal nodes. This currently breaks much of the
force/release functionality, but we'll get it back by other means.
This patch adds support for the `resetall directive.
It also changes `celldefine, `endcelldefine and `resetall
to no longer grab text following them. These directives do
not take an argument so they should not be grabbing any
text and silently discarding it.
The `timescale processing was reworked to handle being
reset and hooks were added to easily change the default
time units and precision when we add that feature request.
This patch adds real functionality for `celldefine and pushes this
property to the run time which can access this with vpiCellInstance.
This is technically only available for a module, but all scopes
have the property and only modules should return true when the
'endmodule' is between a `celldefine and `endcelldefine directive.
These are not leaks in the true sense of the word, but it is
memory that is not being freed before the program finishes
so valgrind will complain about this.
It looks pretty stupid and non-c++-y, but it does remove two compiler warnings
vvp/stop.cc: In function 'void stop_handler(int)':
vvp/stop.cc:492: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*'
vvp/stop.cc:493: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*'
The wire base class cannot carry all the overhead for handling all
the different net types, so split it out into derived classes. This
will also move me closer to splitting wires away from variables.
This patch modifies the real parameter get_value routine to use
the standard vpip_real_get_value() routine. This routine has
support for an integer and a decimal string value.
The standard allows an output declared as "output reg" to be
given an initialization assignment in the output declaration.
this patch adds that functionality. Specifically:
output reg out = 1'b0;
works as expected.
Icarus support returning a string version of a macro ``<MACRO>.
The problem was that it did not escape '\' or '"' so if the
macro to be escaped had either of these it would create an
invalid string. This patch fixes this by translating these two
codes to their octal equivalent when the macro is converted.
This patch fixes the three %assign/v0/x1 operators to correctly
notice that the select has fallen off the start of the vector
for the case that the negative offset equaled the width.
