We need to print a message and fail if the two \\ characters are not found
in the executable path.
Also update the generation warning to include -g2005-sv.
Presumably, the user will want the ability to explicitly set the
working library location, so create a +vhdl-work+ plusarg setting
for exactly that purpose.
It was a poor choice to only add -g2009 for 1800-2009 and ignore the
previous version of System Verilog 1800-2005. This patch adds a
generation for 1800-2005 and also adds `begin_keywords support for
1800-2005. The previous SystemVerilog keywords have been put under
the 1800-2005 generation and the new one from 1800-2009 have also
been added.
The compiler currently performs parameter expression elaboration before
performing parameter overrides. This means that the information needed
to correctly determine the expression type and width may not be available
at the time elaboration is performed. This patch reworks the code to
delay elaboration until after all overrides have been performed. It
also provides a new -g option that controls how the width of parameter
expressions is calculated when the parameter itself is unsized.
In ivl_alloc.h we redefine malloc(), realloc() and calloc() to have
standard error checking. We don't want to do this for anything that
comes from the standard headers. This specifically doesn't work if
a C++ header files does std::malloc, etc.
Also change to -W instead of -Wextra since that is more portable. I
plan to add a check from -Wextra and use it when available since it
is more descriptive.
Add code to print a warning if the user tries to use the -S flag.
We need this warning since synthesis is not currently being actively
maintained or supported in any branch after V0.8.
This patch cleans up some style issues: no need to check that a value
is defined before freeing or deleting it, use C++ style casts, make
sure to NULL terminate strncpy(), empty() is faster than size() for
size == 0 or size >= 0 checks, re-scope some variables, etc.
Added generation flag -g2009 which enables support for 1800-2009
constructs. Added related support such as "1800-2009" in the
`begin_keywords directive.
Keeps 2005 as the default generation for now.
Removed the -gsytem-verilog flag and folded the 1800-2005 stuff into
1800-2009. The rationale behind this is we have so little of
1800-2005 actually implemented that it does not make sense to
distinguish between 1800-2005 and 1800-2009 SystemVerilog extensions,
so we just count them all as the new 1800-2009 Verilog language.
The MinGW executable should be able to support a path with mixed
separators, but to make things consistent all the path in the main
driver program (driver/main.c) now always use a '\' or convert a
path to use '\' (e.g. getenv() returns a path with a '/').
This patch adds support for spaces in the path to the temporary files.
Adds support for spaces in output files and in library paths.
A space in the installation path is only supported under MinGW
(windows) at this time.
This patch converts a few sprintf statements to snprintf
to protect against buffer overflow.
It also converts a few sizeof calls from sizeof(x) to
sizeof x like other places in the code.
This patch adds support for spaces in the install path on MinGW.
It does this by converting the Long version of the iverilog path
into a Short version that does not have spaces in it. If we don't
do this then we can not add support for other arguments with
spaces in the path or filename. It also modifies the driver-vpi
program to support spaces in the saved ivl path. This is done by
just enclosing the include and library path argument in double
quotes.
The issue on MinGW is that if you put the executable argument to
system in double quotes to escape embedded spaces then you can
not put the arguments in double quotes as well. If you convert
to a Short name then the spaces are removed and we can in the
future escape the arguments as needed.
Try to put all the version stamps into common version_base.h
and version_stamp.h header files. All the source programs then
get their version from these header files.
Also handle the version stamps in the man pages by using the
version_*.h header file contents to edit the version strings
in the man page title bar markers.
This patch modifies the iverilog -M command line option to allow
the user to specify an optional output mode that controls which
files get added to the dependency list. This allows the user to
either get a list of all files that contribute to the design,
or a list of the include files, or a list of the module files.
This patch adds two new warning classes that can be enabled or
disabled via the -W command line option. The first controls
whether a warning is generated if a part select within an
always @* statement causes the entire vector to be added to
the implicit sensitivity list. The second controls whether a
warning is generated if a word select within an always @*
statement causes the entire array to be added to the implicit
sensitivity list. The first class is not automatically enabled
by -Wall, the second class is.
This patch adds support for a -Wselect-range warning class to the
driver and ivl programs. This is part of -Wall. The actual checks
will be added in a later patch.
This patch is based on one from "bruce <bruce1914@gmail.com>".
I've applied all but the elaboration code, which I rewrote to
properly work with the elaboration work queue. I also constrained
the implementation so that the parameter name must have exactly
two components: the root scope name and the parameter name. This
is necessary to keep the defparm processing sane. The comments
from bruce's original patch are as follows:
--
This patch would provide function to define parameter from command
line. This serves the same functionality as 'defparam' in Verilog
source code, but provide much more ease for using. Parameter
definition can be write in command file, with following syntax:
+parameter+<scope>.<parameter>=<val>
*Do not apply any space between them*
The scope name should be full hierachical name with root name at
the begining. The following example would override test.T1 with
new value 2'b01:
+parameter+test.T1=2'b01
'test' here is the root module name. The parameter value here
should be constant. Parameter definition can also be write in
the command line:
iverilog -Ptest.T1=2'b01
This serves the same functionality with the previous example.
If we define the same parameter in command file and command line,
the one in command line would over-write all others.
This patch adds -g2001-noconfig command line flag. The compiler
already supported this with `begin_keywords. Document this in
the manual page and fix a few other issues.
Fix endgenerate to be a 2001 keyword and add a few missing
keywords at the appropriate standard level e.g.(unsigned).
Add uwire and deprecate wone. wone used to just convert without
a warning to a wire. uwire will display a warning that it is
being converted to a wire without a check. wone is converted to
a uwire with a warning and then prints the uwire message. The
uwire message will be replaced with a real check fairly soon.
These are not leaks in the true sense of the word, but it is
memory that is not being freed before the program finishes
so valgrind will complain about this.
The dependency file may be written by ivlpp as it loads its own
dependencies. Make sure this doesn't mess up the dependencies that
are already written by the main program. This requires that ivl,
ivlpp and iverilog (driver) cooperate on the opening of the
dependency file.
In the past we automatically added the local directory to
the beginning of the include search path. This was found to
conflict with what other tools do so this functionality is
now only available when the -grelative-include option is
given to iverilog.
Functions that appear in continuous assignment expressions and that
have hidden dependencies or side effects need to be re-evaluated
whenever any input to the expression changes. This patch adds support
in the compiler and vvp runtime to enable this. This is currently
activated for any system function call that has no arguments. The
user may also force it to be used for any user function by passing
the option -gstrict-ca-eval to the compiler driver.
This patch also removes the -dautomatic option which was used for
gaining confidence in the code that supports automatic tasks and
functions. It is believed that the testsuite provides reasonable
fault coverage, and further tests can be added if bugs are found.
Continue cleaning up shadowed variables, flagged by turning on -Wshadow.
No intended change in functionality. Patch looks right, and is tested
to compile and run on my machine. No regressions in test suite.
This patch set covers C code, with the notable exception of
vpi/lxt_write{,2}.c.
We were not checking the return of the two system calls used
to get the version information from ivlpp and ivl. This patch
adds checks and prints an appropriate message if they fail.
This patch updates the GNU address in the -V output, adds the
VERSION_TAG info to the tgt-vvp back end and adds the whole -V
hook to the tgt-vhdl back end.
There was a memory leak in the preprocess_only code (cmd was not
being freed when the command completed successfully. Valgrind
was also marking the temporary file names as still reachable, so
they are not memory leaks, but freeing them makes valgrind happier.
When the -V flag is passed to the iverilog command, we can easily
print the version information for the driver itself, but it is also
valuable to probe all the components that would have been used for
a real compile. So the driver executes the preprocessor and the ivl
core to have them print version information.
The ivl core program also tries to load the target code generator
and get version information to print. For this to work, create a new
optional entry point "target_query" that takes a query key string as
an argument and returns a const string as the result. Use this with
the key "version" to get version information out of the target.
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.
This patch adds the constant system functions for Verilog-2005
and Verilog-AMS. These are evaluated at compile time. $abs(),
$min() and $max() support their polymorphic behavior in the
compiler where it really matters. They are always evaluated
as reals in the run time and the result/argument(s) will be
converted as needed.
The Verilog-2005 functions are available if using the 2005
generation (default) and if either the icarus-misc (also on
by default) or verilog-ams flags are set.
The Verilog-AMS functions are available if either the
icarus-misc or verilog-ams flags are set.
