Even open nets have a driver for HiZ. The BUFZ is needed as something
to hang .net objects. This is another step closer to not needing the
"create_constant_node" hack in vvp/words.cc.
In the olden days, the .alias was necessary to create a net name
that is an alias to an existing net in the netlist. But now that
the .net no longer creates a node in the netlist, ALL .net objects
are aliases of a sort, so this (mis)feature gets in the way.
This patch adds cleanup code that cleans up the memory that is
allocated by the of_EXEC_UFUNC command. This knocks a few more
files off the valgrind list.
The constant $clog2() was returning a value that had an integer
width, but it did not have the sign bit set. This could result
in incorrect math expressions. This patch sets the sign bit for
the constant $clog2() result.
In the MinGW version of iverilog-vpi (C version located in driver-vpi)
we must only look at the first word of the IVERILOG_VPI_CC definition.
A recent change to the configuration process made this equal to
"gcc -std=gnu99" which will not be found when looking for the
gcc executable. We nee to look for "<path>\\bin\\gcc.exe". This
patch modifies the driver to only use the first word when looking for
the compiler, but uses the full value when compiling.
The tranif input pins are normally nothing special, but sometimes
they are fed back from the switch body. In this case, the control
needs to see the current *output* from the fed back port, in order
to get the results that people expect.
Control inputs (i.e. the control input to tranif switches)
are not driven in any way by the island, so use .import records
instead of .port records to bring them into the island. Properly
handle the now potentially different bindings within the island
and outside the island. This means the draw_net_input_x function
is a little more sophisticated, and the node data more complex.
When AC_PROG_CC_C99 was added recently we created an implicit
requirement for autoconf version 2.60. This patch makes that
implicit requirement and explicit requirement.
This is needed to get vvp to compile under MacOS 10.6 and possibly other
64 bit systems that define uint64_t as unsigned long long vs unsigned
long (both are 64 bits).
It turns out that it is possible for an otherwise constant net
mux to be non-constant if there is a force that can drive the
net. This can be detected as an l-value reference to an otherwise
constant selector.
Add a configuration check that says we would like to use C99 if the
compiler supports it. Also change the lround(), nan(), fmin() and
fmax() checks to look in the default libraries as well as the math
library.
Update the iverilog-vpi sh script to correctly quote CC since it
may now have two words (gcc -std=gnu99).
Add a missing int for main in draw_tt.c.
Local nets that have no (zero) drivers are dead weight. Since
they have no drivers, they are not being used anywhere. Since
they are local, they are not force-able.
This doesn't have any significant runtime consequence other then
to create a functor that is otherwise stable. But this does connect
to .net nodes more naturally, and gets me a step closer to banning
Cx<> labels as arguments to .net records.
Nets that are created after being put off for later processing to
allow the vvp_net to be created, need to be more carefully placed
in the correct scope.
Under some situation the optimized repeat expression can get out
of sync while it is being processed this causes the code to
reference freed memory. This happens when the repeat expression
is converted to an unsigned integer, but the repeat expression
is used in a different path. It was easier to just remove the
optimization then track down the convoluted call sequence that
was causing this and then figure out what needed to be fixed.
The repeat expression must be constant, so is likely not too
complicated so this optimization is very minor and should not
be missed.
When releasing a net, the release method must force that the
filter propagate the released value to the output. Use the
needs_init_ flag to do that force.
The vpi_callback base class is parent of the filter object of nets,
and not the functor. The good news is the clear_all_callbacks method
can now be got at without casts.
If the part select is too wide in both the top and bottom ends,
this patch fixes the calculation of the top pad. The compiler
was generating too much pad if the select also extended below
the expression.

this patch fixes the calculation of the top pad. The compiler
was generating too much pad if the select also extended below
the expression.
If a signed signal is driving a part select in a CA and the width
is less than 32 bits. the value will be zero extended and will
not work for negative values. This patch adds a warning that this
could happen. This will be fixed in development.
This patch adds an optimization when a constant indexed part
select covers the entire L-value. It also fixes a few issues
in the code generator related to part selects.
When reading from thread space only read the first 32 bits
(sizeof int) for the part select base. This matches the other
parts of the PV_get_base() code.
