Before this, the types of parameters were always logic, only the
width and signed-ness could be controlled. A parameter may take
on implicit real values if the expression were real.
With this patch, the type for the parameter can be explicitly set
to logic or real. This also means that the parameter real valued
expressions need to be more crefully treated, possibly with casting
integral expressions to real values, or real expressions to integral
values.
Handle parameter value ranges as far as the pform. The +-inf expressions
are not handled yet, nor is the single value exclude, but the other
cases are handled.
Pform parse enough of the natures that they can be mapped and the
disciplines can bind to them. Since Verilog-AMS expects natures to
be declared before use, we can do the binding early.
Parse discipline declarations, net discipline declarations, and
analog contribution statements. Don't yet do anything useful with
these, just give a sorry message where they are encountered.
This patch adds file and line information for parameters and
local parameters. It also adds file/line stubs for signals in
the tgt-* files. It adds the pform code needed to eventually
do genvar checks and passing of genvar file/line information.
It verifies that a genvar does not have the same name as a
parameter/local parameter.
Move the storage of wires (signals) out of the Module class into
the PScope base class, and instead of putting the PWires all into
the Module object, distribute them into the various lexical scopes
(derived from PScope) so that the wire names do not need to carry
scope information.
This required some rewiring of elaboration of signals, and rewriting
of lexical scope handling.
All the pform objects that represent lexical scope now are derived
from the PScope class, and are kept in a lexical_scope table so that
the scope can be managed.
Generate case is a complex generate scheme where the items are
sub-schemes of the case generate itself. The parser handles them
something like nested generate statements, but storing the case
guards as the test expression. Then the elaborator notes the
case scheme and reaches into the case item schemes inside to make
up tests, select the generate item, and elaborate.
This patch is rather large and fixes a couple of problems. The major
change is that instead of keeping all the range specifications in
a list that is later processed the information is now kept as
individual entries for the port and net definitions. This allows
easier checking for multiple definitions (pr1660028), more
detailed error messages and the ability to pass the now deprecated
style of a scalar I/O definition used with a vectored net definition.
These changes did require extra code to prevent a single definition
from setting the range values in more than on place.
When using the new ANSI-C style of port declarations (1364-2001 12.3.4
list_of_port_declarations) the compiler ensures that you do not
redeclare the port in the body (it is already completely defined).
This caught a few errors in the test suite (pr859 and sqrt32*).
The flag to disable the normal port checking and allow the deprecated
port syntax is -gno-io-range-error. This will print a warning for the
case of a scalar port with a vectored definition in the body. All
other cases are still considered an error.
This patch adds better checking for a missing endmodule or an attempt
to nest modules. A more descriptive message is printed and the location
of the original module definition is printed.
syntax. Hook this support into existing $attribute
handling, and add number and void value types.
Add to the ivl_target API new functions for access
of complex attributes attached to gates.
