If a signal has been cast to a different type, synthesis needs to
reflect the expression type, not the base signal type.
If a part select selects the entire signal, unless otherwise cast,
the expression is unsigned, regardless of the base signal type.
This fixes the additional issues reported in issue #1099.
When there is only one operand, we elide the concatenation during
expression synthesis. But if that operand is signed, we need to
insert an intermediate local signel to cast it to unsigned.
This fixes issue #1099.
Currently replication in a concatenation is implemented by simply
concatenating the input signals multiple times by the replication amount.
Replace this to use NetReplicate on the concatenation instead. In case
there is only one input vector to the concatenation the replication will directly
connect to the input vector.
This is slightly more efficient in vvp since the replication functor has
only one input while the concatenation has multiple inputs connected to the
same wire. When an update of the input occurs the replication functor will
only receive a single update, while the concatenation will receive multiple
update events, one for each replication.

Most places in the code use a std::vector for array dimensions.
The only exception is the constructor of NetNet, which uses
a `std::list` to pass the unpacked dimensions. But to store the
unpacked dimensions it also uses a `std::vector`.
There does not seem to be a good reason why the constructor
has to take a `std::list`, so switch it also to `std::vector`.
This allows to simplify the code and remove some special handling
for `std::list<netrange_t>`.

SystemVerilog allows to use assignment patterns to assign values to an
array. E.g. `int a[4] = '{1, 2, 3, 4}`.
Each value is evaluated in the context of the element type of the array.
Nested assignment patterns are supported. E.g. `int a[2][2] = '{'{1, 2},
'{1, 2}};`
Add initial support for array assignment patterns for both continuous as
well as procedural assignments.
For continuous assignments the assignment pattern is synthesized into an
array of nets. Each pin is connected to one of the assignment pattern
values and then the whole net array is connected to target array.
For procedural assignments it is unrolled in the vvp backend. E.g
effectively turning `a = '{1, 2};` into `a[0] = 1; a[1] = 2;`.
Not yet supported are indexed initializers or `default`.
E.g. `int a[10] = '{1:10, default: 20};`

`ivl_assert()` is similar to `assert()` except that it will also include
source file and line information about the expression for which the assert
was triggered.
Use `ivl_assert()` instead of `assert()` where the line information is
available. This will generate better bug reports and make it easier to
diagnose why an assert is triggered.

The signed version of the power operation in vvp should only be used
if the exponent is signed. Both signed and unsigned versions will
produce the correct result regardless of the type of the base operand,
provided it has been appropriately extended to the result size.
This generates an EQZ LPM device that carries the case-z-ness to
the code generator.
Also add to the vvp code generator support for the EQZ device so
that the synthesis results can be simulated.
Account for the wildcard devices in the sizer.
This required keeping for-loops as actual things through the
netlist form so that the synthesizer can get at and understand
the parts of the for-loop. This may improve vvp code generation
in the future, but for now continue to present to the vvp code
generation the block-while form.
Some types, i.e. vector types with parameterized dimensions,
may have different elaboration results in different scopes.
Handle those cases in the elaboration caches.
This patch adds support for implicit casts to the elaborate_rval_expr()
function. This will handle the majority of cases where an implicit cast
can occur.
The compiler doesn't currently check that the width of an indexed
part select is non-zero. If code contains this erroneous case, the
compiler can crash (with an assertion failure). This patch causes
the compiler to output a suitable error message and recover. It
also fixes a potential crash if an illegal expresson is encountered.
Icarus uses 'i' in the net expressions for a cast to integer. Replacing
it with 'v' would free the character 'i' that can be used for increment
operators. This changes cast operators to become 'v', '2', and 'r'.

This patch adds code that allows the targets to determine if a logical
gate came from a continuous assignment. This helps some of the targets
generate code that more closely matches the input.
It also reworks/simplifies the synthesis of && and || since the
compiler has already converted the two operands to single bit form
and fixes a mismatched delete from a previous patch.
This patch fixes a bunch of objects to have the correct file/line
information. It also adds support for getting file/line information
for events (named events have a definition line).
This patch covers more than it should. It removes many of the -Wextra
warnings in the main ivl directory. It also makes some minor code
improvements, adds support for constant logicals in eval_tree (&&/||),
adds support for correctly sign extending === and !==, it starts to
standardize the eval_tree debug messages and fixes a strength bug
in the target interface (found with -Wextra). The rest of the warnings
and eval_tree() rework will need to come as a second patch.
BOOL values have a specific cast from LOGIC, this node takes care
of it. Also arrange for the elaboration to insert them in the right
planes and for the code generator to generate them.
A real delay must be scaled and rounded using the local precision
before it is finally scaled to the simulation time units. This
patch fixes the compiler to do this correctly or generate the
correct code for run time calculated delays. Delays in a CA
already worked correctly. The run time was also fixed to scale
modpath (SDF back annotation) delays correctly.
Some new shadow issues have crept in. This patch fixes these new
issues and adds -Wshadow to the normal warning flags to keep any
new occurrences from happening.
When passing an argument to a user function in a continuous assignment
we need to sign extend the value if it is signed and too short. We need
to crop an argument if it is too long.
The Cygwin compiler is a bit picky. This patch adds some casts
to remove compilation warnings. In the past I have had warnings
off because of problems with the STL, but for this directory we
mas as well remove the warnings we can. It also does not
recognize that an assert(0) or assert(false) ends a routine so
it complains about no return at end of function or variables
not being defined.
Minor fixes and code reorganization to remove a few more issues
that cppcheck is complaining about. It has a few false warnings
and some issues that need more investigation.
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.
(cherry picked from commit 2c0b105de7)
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.
