Nothing to do with tab width! Eliminates useless
trailing spaces and tabs, and nearly all <space><tab>
pairings. No change to derived files (e.g., .vvp),
non-master files (e.g., lxt2_write.c) or the new tgt-vhdl
directory.
Low priority, simple entropy reduction. Please apply
unless it deletes some steganographic content you want
to keep.
Statements can have attributes attached to them. Handle a few cases in
the parser where attributes may be attached to statements, and get them
as far as the pform.
This patch adds blocking repeat event controls and also makes the
base repeat statement sign aware. If the argument to repeat is
negative (it must be a signed variable) then this is treated just
like an argument of 0 (there is no looping). Doing this allows us
to model the repeat event control as follows.
lhs = repeat(count) @(event) rhs;
is translated to:
begin
temp = rhs;
repeat (count) @(event);
lhs = temp;
end
This patch also pushes the non-blocking event control
information to the elaboration phase where it will report they
are not currently supported.
This patch pushes the automatic property for both tasks and
functions to the code generators. The vvp back end does not
currently support this so it will error out during code
generation. The VHDL back end should be able to use this
property and tgt-stub prints the property. Having this will
also make it easier when we do adding this to the runtime.
This patch adds the time and realtime properties for user
task and function arguments. It also make a common rule
for real and realtime since they are the same.
This patch fixes a bug where a local parameter with only a range
was incorrectly setting the default parameter type to IVL_VT_NO_TYPE.
This would create a compile time assert for any untyped
parameter/localparam immediately following it.
Contribution statements have an l-value and r-value. Parse those
expressions into pform so that elaboration has something to work with.
In this process, this patch also changes the PECallFunction class to
use the vector template instead of the svector template. The latter
doesn't add anything over the STL vector template, so this is a start
of working the svector out.
Verilog-2001 only allows a single generate item within a generate-
endgenerate region, but allowed one to collect generate schemes with
begin/end blocks. Verilog-2005 cleaned up that mess, and it is the
2005 syntax that Icarus Verilog implements. This patch detects the
anachronistic use of begin/end within the generate region, ignores
the begin/end words, and prints a warning that the user is using an
obsolete syntax.
This patch adds the time and realtime types to parameters
and local parameters. It also makes the width (range) of
an integer parameter match the variable "integer_width"
(normally 32 bits). It also converts a real value to
an integer when a range is implicitly or explicitly
given. This all matches what the standard specifies.
Fixed an error in converting -1 to a unsized verinum.
Parameter value ranges support the exclude of a point as well as
range, so add the syntax to support that case. Internally it is
handled as a degenerate range, but the parse and initial elaboration
need to know about it.
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.
The VAMS-2.2 LRM syntax does not include a semicolon after the nature/
discipline name, but the 2.3 LRM does. Effectively, that means that
the simicolon is option from now on.
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.
The VAMS-2.3 specification says that discipline and nature declarations
have a semi-colon after the identifier, but the disciplines.vams in
the appendix does not. Initial guess what that the disciplines.vams
is correct, but I've been told that the syntax is correct and the
disciplines.vams file is not.
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 is part of the standard disciplines header file, with enough
syntax to part the natures and disciplines included. Don't do anything
with the parse results yet.
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.
Implement in behavioral the abs/min/max operators for real values.
The parser treats these builtin functions as operators, unary or
binary, and elaborates them appropriately.
Also add enough code generator support to handle real valued expressions
in thread context.
Verilog-2005 defines the base-10 log function to be $log10. This makes
sense because in C the log() function is the natural log. So add the
$log10 function.
Since there may be legacy code that uses the $log function, leave it
defined, but we should consider at least printing a warning when the
$log function is used.
Verilog-AMS recommends that users use the system-function style
math functions, but supports traditional style math functions for
portability. Add the keywords and parse the traditional Verilog-A
functions, and handle them as calls to the equivilent system
function.
This patch does a better job of recovering from an error in a
task or function definition. This prevents the compiler from
printing many irrelevant error messages.
This patch adds the functionality to tasks/functions to handle the
declaration of multiple ports using a single ANSI declaration. It
also deletes the old range vector before it adds the new one. The
tasks and functions are different than modules so we need to copy
the range for them.
Update the rules for parsing user function definitions to allow
Verilog-2001 ANSI style port declarations. In the process, also
unify with the user task port declaration so that the types don't
diverge. The rules are the same for both, with the extra constraint
that function ports must all be input. This latter rule is checked
later, during elaboration, so that the task/function pform code
can be shared, and better error messages can be generated.
This patch fixes some allocation problems (mostly in the parser
and lexor relating to identifiers). It also fixes a couple places
where uninitialized variables were used. All found with valgrind.
There are still 100 tests that have problems. Many of these appear
to be related.
Case-generate alternatives create sub-scopes that need to be scanned
by the scope scanner in order to get function definitions etc. that
are defined lexically within generated scopes.
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.
Modules, functions and tasks are named scopes so derive them all
from the PScope base class. These items all take scoped items, so
the eventual plan is to move these items into PScope.
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.
Rework the handling of file names to use a perm_string heap to hold
the file names, instead of the custom file name heap in the lexor.
Also rename the get_line to get_fileline to reflect its real duties.
This latter chage touched a lot of files.
Using the parser supplied error token to get file and line number
information appears to give incorrect results at best and core dump
at worst. This patch uses the closest real token that makes sense
to alleviate this problem.
The min/typ/max default warning was not being produced in all
locations a min/typ/max expression could be used. This patch
adds the default warning code to all locations. It also
modifies the manual page to explicitly state that only the
first ten warnings are printed.
