@* was only expanding to input nets. nex_input() for blocks was removing
any output net that was also an input. There was also a bug in how output
nets were removed. Only outputs currently defined were removed from the
input list.
always @(*) begin
y = a;
z = y;
end
would report "a" as an input. While
always @(*) begin
z = y;
y = a;
end
would report both "a" and "y" as inputs.
To fix this all nex_inputs now take a flag that when true (the default)
correctly removes any output from the input list. Both the above cases
will now return "a". If the flag is false outputs which are also inputs
will be included in the input list. This is what the @* elaboration code
uses to get the correct sensitivity list.
more general concept of arrays. The NetMemory and NetEMemory
classes are removed from the ivl core program, and the IVL_LPM_RAM
lpm type is removed from the ivl_target API.
