Martin Whitaker dad78d5258 Move details of non-standard behaviour from README to Documentation.
Some of this was duplicated in the documentation, some of it was only
in the README. Let's have it all in one place, linked to from the
README.

Martin Whitaker 05d4e3fc73 Add reminder about vvp extended argument usage to on-line documention.
Although the introductory paragraph seems clear enough, add a reminder
at the start of the section on extended arguments that they must appear
after the input file name.

ga 95810b2f61 Configure with --enable-libvvp builds a shared library containing
almost all of vvp that may be used by other programs.
The vvp program becomes a small client of libvvp.

Stephen Williams 71b9c551df Move tests pr2509349a/b to the new test format.
This removes the regress-msys2.list file, fixes the output from the
pr2509349a.v test to not be different on different systems, and
documents the $readmempath task.

Martin Whitaker deeac2edfe Fix broken example code (discussion #922)
'output' is a keyword, so can't be used as a signal name.

Stephen Williams 564304d20c ivtests: Add support for vlog95 tests
This adds the "normal-vlog95" test type, because we need to run a different
set of commands for this to work so a new test type makes sense. This also
moves a few of the existing tests to the new format in order to test the
new test rig.

Stephen Williams 50722494b9 ivtest: Add the dumpfile.v test
Add a regression test to show that the proper dumpfile is selected, by
noting in the output from the vvp command what file name it is creating.

To make this work, I also needed to add some capabilities to the vvp_reg.py
regression test rig.
2023-02-26 14:43:01 -08:00
Stephen Williams 29ac33493e Add support for a command line dumpfile option
The -dumpfile=<path> vvp extended argument sets the default nanme to use
for the various dumpers. If this flag is not given, the default is "dump".
The $dumpfile system task overrides the default or this command line flag.

This commit also factors out all the dumpfile selection code for the various
dumper implementations.

Stephen Williams 3085bd6845 ivtest: Move some tests to the revress-vvp list
Move some tests from the old structure to the new more descriptive
test suite. Remove them from the old lists.

Stephen Williams 4ea442b2d9 ivtest: Create the vvp_reg.py test script
This creates a new test suite driver and infrastructure for going
forward. This cleans up the descriptions for tests, and is more
extensible.

Include documentation for the new engine, so that new tests can go
here instead of the old test suite.

Stephen Williams a7c5eceeea ivtest: Document the ivest/regress-vNN.list file.
This is another bit that needs to be accounted for when changing versions.

Stephen Williams 06c819849f vvp: Document the vvp interactive debug mode
Vvp has an interactive debug mode that few seem to be aware of. Document
that mode.

Jevin Sweval 5a90b7857a Add -R option to print runtime paths (for now, includedir only)
This allows for, e.g., a Makefile to find the location of vpi_user.h in a portable manner. Similar to pkgconfig.

Stephen Williams 2f091c8f45 Start Icarus Verilog Documentation using Sphinx
Embed the Icarus Verilog documentation, and format it so that the
Sphinx tools can process it into html or other formats. This will
make the documentation easier to keep up to date with the actual
software.
