When replacing macro formal parameters, the preprocessor should not
replace matching strings that are not complete tokens. The test for
this was incorrect, and failed when a match was found at the start
of the replacement text.
Currently, when a variable expression is passed to a system task,
the expression value is stored in thread memory. Values stored
in thread memory cannot safely be passed to $strobe or $monitor,
because the thread memory may get reused or deallocated before
the $strobe or $monitor task actually executes. As a temporary
measure, we just trap this case and terminate with a "sorry"
message. A proper fix would require the expression value to be
calculated at the time the $strobe or $monitor executes, not at
the time it is called.
If a strength aware net has an unambiguous HiZ1 strength, VVP treats
it as a logic '1'. It should be treated as a logic 'z'. An ambiguous
HiZ1/HiZ0 strength should also be treated as a logic 'z'.
L-value bit selects were incorrectly converting an undefined index to 0.
L-value part selects were asserting if an undefined index was given.
This patch unifies how all these are handle (including indexed part selects).
The base is set to an undefined value and an appropriate width is used.
A warning message is always printed since this is not a simple out of
range issue. It is the responsibility of the code generator to skip the
assignment, but we always want to execute the R-value since it could have
a side effect.
When VVP compiles a .array statement for a net array, it does not
know the data type, so initialises the array signed_flag to false.
We need to set the signed_flag to the correct value once we know
the data type, to allow the VPI routines to correctly format the
data.
This patchs adds an implementation of recv_vec4_pv() to the vvp_fun_concat
class. This was already present in devel, so just needed to be backported
to v0.9.
Windows and hence mingw does not follow the standard regarding the return
value of vsnprintf(). The mingw code needs to iteratively search for a
buffer large enough to print the output.
The second call to vsnprintf() needs to have a copy of the argument list
so it can run correctly. On some system vsnprintf() destorys the original
argument list.
When sending a string to a system task/function allocate the space needed
to avoid truncating the string vs using a large fixed buffer.
In vvp allocate and use an exactly sized buffer for the MCD print routine if
the fixed buffer is not large enough. Using a fixed buffer keeps normal
printing fast.
When a new NetEBMult object is created, the compiler guesses the
expression width based on the sum of the operand widths. When we
duplicate an expression, we need to override this with the width
from the original expression.
When built with MinGW, pow() may not always generate an exact integer
result when supplied with integer operands. Converting the result to an
integer before we use it seems to be enough to work round this issue.
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.
(cherry picked from commit c4ff8300d3)
The parser does not distinguish between module and UDP instances, so
a UDP delay is handled by the rules used for parsing module parameter
overrides. Although these rules had been relaxed to accept the case of
a simple decimal value (e.g. #10), they did not allow a simple real
value (e.g. #0.1).
Currently, localparam declarations inside generate blocks are
elaborated after any nested generate constructs are elaborated.
This prevents the localparams being used by the nested constructs.
Reversing the elaboration order fixes this bug.
When vpi_put_value() is asked to delay the assignment any pointer data
needs to be duplicated so that the caller can clean up the locally
allocated memory without causing memory access problems.
Normal Verilog does not allow a function to be defined without at
least an input argument. This patch fixes a crash that was happening
when a function with no arguments was defined. It also adds checks
and prints a descriptive error message when calling a function without
an argument.
The development branch allows this in SV.
Not all the lex/yacc (flex/bison) targets were using a consistent syntax.
This patch fixes that and explicitly serializes the *.c/*.cc and *.h build.
Not doing this was causing problem when using make -j. The issue appears to
be that if two targets are specified for a rule (e.g. file.cc file.h: file.y)
make does not realize they are both built by the same call so the rule is
executed twice. Once for the .cc target and once for the .h target. This is
not a problem for a serial build. To work around this only use the .c/.cc
file in the main target and then make the .h file depend on the .c/.cc file
as a sub-target.
This same change was done in the vpi directory. This patch fixes the
issues in the libveriuser directory. This fixed a fail in the vpi
timescale test under MinGW.
The standard allows a parameter (or localparam) declaration of the
form "parameter signed my_param = ...". The parser currently rejects
this. A small adjustment is also required in the parameter evaluation
code to correctly apply the type.
The tran island rework included an optimisation that meant that an
island port would only be resolved once the initial value for the net
attached to that port had propagated to the port. However, v0.9 does
not propagate initial values in some cases, so this optimisation
cannot be used.
The compiler was incorrectly padding real arguments to tasks if they were
assigned to vectored arguments greater than 1 bit wide. This was asserting
for some cases and generating incorrect code for others.
An @* with no sensitivities should be treated as something that will
never trigger vs something that will run continuously. This patch makes
this change and adds a warning when an @* has no sensitivities since
this is almost certainly a coding bug.
It is legal for a named block to contain variable definitions and
no statements. This patch fixes this for both style of blocks. It
also organizes the block parsing code to be a bit more clear, adds
an error case for fork/join and changes on check for size() > 0 for
the more efficient ! empty().
If a wired and/or net has more than four connections all the other
resolution branches must also be wired and/or. All other nets can
just be tri since tri0/tri1 only needs the final resolution to be
an active pull up/down.
Since synthesis is not currently supported we do not support/generate
sync/async set or clear control inputs. This is further complicated by
the fact that the VVP DFF primitive is not fully implemented.
In a specify block a full connection is defined to only support a single
source and destination path. This patch adds an error message when this
is found, except we skip the error if all the paths are a single bit
wide. This exemption was added to match the functionality found in
NC-Verilog and presumably Verilog-XL.
A message was also added in place of an assert if the source signals was
not found in the current scope.
This patch uses the full_flag to verify that the input and output have the
same width for a parallel connection. Icarus always uses a full connection
so this is just a portability issue with other simulators.
The pform dump code was also modified to correctly display the polarity
and full/parallel connection type.
When scaling a time value we would often use the power operator to
create constants 10**-N that were then multiplied with the original
value. The problem with this is that there is some errors in the
representation of the fractional number. It is better to create a
integer value 10**N and then divide the original value by this
exact constant. You still have the calculation error, but the scale
value is now an exactly real value.
Add support for %m, suppression '*' and a maximum field width along with
a number of other fixes/enhancements. There is still no support for
%u, %v or %z.
The fix to get a C99 compliant strtod() in MinGW mistakenly set the
LDFLAGS value rather than appending to it. This meant that a LDFLAGS
supplied by the user on the configure command line would be ignored.

MinGW and Cygwin don't currently support weak function definitions.
For these platforms, make tf_getlongsimtime a strong symbol.
(cherry picked from commit 7f62579524)
MinGW has reverted to using the Microsoft msvcrt0 implementation
of the strtod() function. This implementation doesn't accept "INF"
"NaN". MinGW does provide a C99 compliant implementation of this
function called __strtod(). We need to force the linker to replace
all references to strtod() with references to __strtod().
(cherry picked from commit b6cb065404)
This patch adds error messages that forcing a word to/from a variable
array is not currently supported. This is because variable arrays no
longer are fully populated and don't have an access functor for each
word. Forcing a word from/to a net array does work as expected since
each word in a net array is created.
Technically forcing a variable array word is not supported in 1364-2005.
Reading from an array word, which is supported, will be fixed in
development once the expression rework is finished.
The error message printed when forcing a bit/part select l-value was
also improved.
Promote the unsigned values to long to get a good comparison and on a
machine where an unsigned is the same size as a long (32 bit) assert
that the unsigned values are constrained to fit into a long. It's unlikely
the values needed to create invalid results would ever happen, but this
patch makes sure it doesn't go undetected.
The VPI object data model diagrams show a one to many relationship
between the "mod path" and "path term" objects. This means that the
correct way to obtain handles to "path term" objects is to use the
vpi_iterate and vpi_scan functions.
Support for the old method of obtaining handles to "path term" objects
using the vpi_handle function is retained for backwards compatibility.
The PLI tf_getlongsimtime() function is a non-standard function provided
for compatibility with some commercial simulators. To match the behaviour
of those simulators, it should return the raw simulation time, not a
scaled time.
(cherry picked from commit a3813c006d)
The vpiDecStrVal case for the get_numeric() function needs to use the
existing string width as the minimum result size. -1 can be represented as
a signed value with a width of 1. This gives a display width of -1 which
is too small for the -1 string value. This was creating valgrind issues.
In general the string value should be the minimum so this is a safe change.
(cherry picked from commit 5a9e4aaec7)
This patch makes the code consistently use struct/class in the C++ files,
it removes a couple shadow warnings and where a class pointer is passed to
the C routines it defines the pointer as a class for C++ and as struct for C.
The compiler was handling bi-directional pass switches using the default
case for primitive gates, where the first port is treated as an output
and the remaining ports are treated as inputs. This patch adds a special
case for pass switches, so that the first two ports are treated as
bi-directional.
This patch also reworks the tran island code to allow it to handle cases
where tran primitives cross-connect different bits of the same vector.
The -gno-specify flag should only control the delay and timing checks.
It should not also remove the specparams since they can be used outside
of a specify block.
The IEEE standard states that the port expressions used for arrays
of primitive gates must be the exact width required, but is silent
about the requirements for single instances. The consensus among
other simulators is that for input ports of single instances, the
expression is silently truncated to a single bit.
This patch also fixes a compiler crash if an error is found when
elaborating a primitive gate port expression.
Icarus is not actually fast enough to run into this issue in a
reasonable amount of time. I discovered this by thinking about
the algorithm and verified the fix with custom code.
(cherry picked from commit 35488ac254)
If a relative path name is passed to the Windows LoadModule function,
it is applied in turn to each path in the DLL search path. For the
ivl_dlopen function, we actually want to mimic the Unix behaviour,
where a relative path is relative to the current working directory.
On systems where the KB2264107 security fix has been applied, the
CWD is excluded from the DLL search path, so we no longer get the
required behaviour. This patch reworks the ivl_dlopen function to
give the correct behaviour under Windows.
This patch also adds a flush of the stderr stream after reporting
VPI call errors. This fixes a race between the stdout and stderr
streams when running the regression tests in a MinGW shell.
(cherry picked from commit 767bb87ee2)
snprintf() copies at most N characters, but the string may not be
terminated correctly. This patch uses sizeof() so that the snprintf()
call matches the size of the buffer and adds code to insert a NULL as
the last character of the string.
After some more thought I believe it is better for $q_full to return
'bx instead of 2 when $q_full is given an invalid id. This will make
the typical full/not full checks both return false. We still return
an error code in the status variable.
(cherry picked from commit 10b2310c52)
The power operator defines 2**-1 and -2**-1 to be zero. This patch fixes
both the procedural and continuous assignments to work correctly. It also
fixes a problem in the compiler power code so that the one constant value
always has at least two bits.
This patch adds the vpiDefName for a module if it is different than
the vpiName. This will be used in a future version of GTKWave.

Currently the compiler coerces input ports to inout ports whenever
there is an internal driver connected to the internal port net.
This generates an error if the port is externally connected to
something other than a structural net. This patch modifies the
compiler to ensure port coercion only occurs in valid cases.
This patch ensures that the result of a shift is an undefined value
if the right operand is an undefined value. It also improves the
code generated for right shifts where the right operand is constant
(which fixes the compiler crash on pr3098439b in the test suite).
This patch removes the code that was deleting the signals in an L-value
concat if the concatenation failed to elaborate. This is incorrect since
the signal could be used in another context that is processed later. The
error message when an output/inout port fails to elaborate was also
improved to give the expression that is connected to the port.
When taking a variable part select of a parameter we need to
give file and line information to the select not the parameter.

In the standard a pull device can be given both a 1 and 0 strength.
Only the appropriate one is actually used. This patch adds support
for giving both pull strength to a pull device.
This patch fixes the following problem in the compiler:
An integer task argument should be marked as an integer port.
An implicit register can be converted to either a reg or an integer.
An old style task port should default to <no type> unless reg or some
other type is provided. ANSI style is always defined. For example:
input ri;
output ro;
inout rio;
real ri, ro, rio;
should define all three task ports to be of type real.
For diagnostics and to know what is really going on in the compiler
we need to keep any NULL that is in a verinum string or when
displayed as/converted to a string.
When padding a verinum string if the padding is in multiples of eight
then keep the string property.
(cherry picked from commit dc17190f4d)
This patch fixes a small bug found with the vlog95 back end. A root scope
should define is_cell instead of leaving it undefined. Normally I would
expect a root scope to not be a cell, but I don't think the standard
prohibits this from happening, so copy the value from the definition.
(cherry picked from commit 1a1b0d7551)
This patch doesn't completely fix the problem, but with it the problem
is at least manageable. The issues was that when the lexor_keyword.gperf
file is updated and you are building outside the source directory the
Makefile would create a local lexor_keyword.cc as expected. The problem
is that it always looked in the source directory for the file. This
patch adds a special vpath rule that says to look in the build directory
first and then in the source directory for lexor_keyword.cc.
This works as expected except for the first time the lexor_keyword.cc
file is generated locally. During the make invocation it compares the
source lexor_keyword.cc file to the gperf file and notices it is out of
date. It then generates a new file in the build directory, but the make
rule is still using the source file which didn't change so it doesn't
rebuild as needed. To get the new file to compile you need to run make
a second time to get the rule to execute using the local version of the
file. This extra make invocation is only needed when the local file is
first created since after that the rule always uses the local file.
I plan to look at resolving the remaining issue, but there is much
subtlety in this since you effectively need to break/rebuild the make
dependency tree to get this to build correctly in a single run.
(cherry picked from commit e67dcf5216)
When a verinum is displayed as a string we need to make sure that any
character that will be displayed as an octal constant must be converted
correctly. Also change to isprint() instead of isgraph() since it is the
same as isgraph() plus a space.
Cadence allows an ifnone with an edge-sensitive path. Until we understand
exactly what this is and how to implement it this patch adds a warning
that an ifnone with an edge-sensitive path is not supported.
Using reg real [1:0] var you can define a real variable with a

When back annotating from a SDF file we already ignore timing checks so
we may as well ignore the COND statement that can be used with them.
Also update a few other changes from development.
This patch back ports some fixes from development. It adds the ability
to do signed === and !== correctly, adds support for && and || of real
values in eval_tree and fixes an obscure bug in t-dll.cc.
An unsized signed constant that is smaller than integer_width needs
to be resized up to either the integer_width or the expression width
whichever is smaller.
Fix all the Icarus files that can be so that we do not have any
signed/unsigned compare warnings. It also removes const as a
return qualifier for two routines in discipline.h.
This patch mimics what was done for vectors, but is simpler since
arrays don't use the endian information. It also needs to address
the fact that .array/port assumes the expression is unsigned so
any signed expression must be padded to make it larger than the
maximum array word when it is converted to unsigned.
This patch modifies all the variable bit and indexed part selects
to use a common routine. This routine determines the minimum
width needed to calculate the result correctly, pads the expression
if needed and then converts the expression to signed if required to
make the calculation correct.
The Cygwin man command requires that you have a / in the path
if you want to avoid looking at the normal search path. This
patch addes ./ before the manual page file name. Which should
work on any system. It also makes the vvp generation create a
PS file like is done in the other Makefiles.
By default we generate normal manual pages. You can then
create PostScript version and from these you can generate a
PDF version.

While checking for an infinite loop in an always block I missed
the case where an if statement does not have a statement. This
was resulting in a segmentation fault.
The search for similar events, used to elide duplicates, was ignoring
the event edge sensitivity. This allowed events that should have been
triggered on different edges of the same signal to be merged.
When performing a translation we do not want to elide any module
ports. Dropping ports can result in port mismatch issues.
(cherry picked from commit b252dc0192)
If someone accidentally makes a parameter depend on itself
we need to report this not crash. This patch fixes the crash
and prints an appropriate string of messages to figure out
the loop. Icarus currently supports forward references of
parameters so more complicated loops can be created. These
are also caught.
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.
Added 'expr_wid' parameter to calls to 'eval_expr()' within

The search for similar events, used to elide duplicates, was easily
confounded by duplicate pins connected to a probe. This caused the

This patch splits the switch types out of the gates to allow
them to be defined to not take a strength specification.

These checks are not needed since we have already verified that
we have a 64 bit immediate value. This is likely old code that
should have been removed when the original functionality was
changed.
This patch modifies the real ternary operator code to support
unlimited tail recursion without overflowing the thread
registers. Head recursion is still limited by the available
registers.
It fixes the thread word checks to use a new define that has
the correct number of thread words (16). It adds a message
instead of just an assert if the thread words are exhausted.
And it also changes some of the error messages to use vvp.tgt
in the message to be consistent with the other messages.
We only need to set the width of a multiple if the width is greater
than zero and if the expression is vectorable. This matches what is
done for addition.
This patch modifies the vvp main code to cleanup if there was an
error compiling the input file. There are still a few issues, but
this takes care of most of them.
The error routines for task and function definitions were incorrectly
popping the scope. This should not be done since no scope was pushed.
Also assert that the current_task/function is 0 to catch that kind of
error like the other definition rules.
gcc on OpenBSD reported shadow warnings for variables, arguments named
log, time and exp. This patch renanes those variables to logic, timerec
and expr.
This patch caches the vpi_call error messages (task/function does
not exist, task being called as a function and function being
called as a task). This allows us to display the file name and line
number information for the invalid usage.
When pushing the current file path we need to get past any `define
expansions that have been pushed onto the stack to find the real
file path.
This patch is partially based on a patch submitted by Steve Tell.
(cherry picked from commit b2d479eaf6)
This patch avoids a crash when trying to use a parameter/localparam that

This patch combines a couple of things from the development patch.
It adds the -Wshadow flag and updates all the Makefile.in files to
support the gcc or SunPro compiler. It also fixes all the shadow
warnings. For the most part this is a copy of few patches from
development.
This patch adds escaped identifier support to the FST dumper and
cleans up the VCD and FST code a bit. Also a simple spelling fix.
(cherry picked from commit 3fe68c4c04)
The functions (malloc, free, etc.) that used to be provided in
malloc.h are now provided in cstdlib for C++ files and stdlib.h for
C files. Since we require a C99 compliant compiler it makes sense
that malloc.h is no longer needed.
This patch also modifies all the C++ files to use the <c...>
version of the standard C header files (e.g. <cstdlib> vs
<stdlib.h>). Some of the files used the C++ version and others did
not. There are still a few other header changes that could be done,
but this takes care of much of it.

We need a slightly different patch for V0.9 than development. The fst
patch already has this change and the lxt2 file in V0.9 also needs
this change. See the development patch for more information.
This patch adds fst dumper support just like was done for development.
These changes match the latest code for development except V0.9 does
not currently support returning a value from vpi_register_systf() and
it does not support vpip_make_systf_system_defined(). If these are
added sys_fst.c will need to be updated.

This patch fixes two places where Icarus under certain conditions
would try to free a NULL iterator value in $dumpvars(). $dumpvars()
can have a NULL argument to indicate that all variables should be
dumped. Under two error conditions the code was trying to free
this NULL argument reference.
The standard does not define if vpi_free_object() can support a
NULL reference. Icarus does not currently allow it (it asserts).
This patch adds support for converting bit based ports to real signals.
You can only do this for single instances. Arrayed instance would
create multiple instances driving the same real signal.
Any real port can be connected to a bit based signal. The only limitation
is that the signal width must be an integer multiple of the instance
count since all the real conversions must have the same width.
Also add an error message for an arrayed instance with real to real
output connections. Again multiple drivers.
This patch also adds errors for inout real and bit based inout ports
driving a real signal. There is no logical way to deal with the full
capabilities of inout and real ports/signals. So for now they are not
allowed.

This patch enhances elaboration to drop/ignore zero replication

dropping them is acceptable.

Icarus does not support interconnect delays so INTERCONNECT is

When using MinGW, routines registered via atexit() inside a
DLL are only called when the DLL is detached. If not detached
manually, DLLs are automatically detached *after* all remaining
open files are closed. This meant that by the time the LXT or
LXT2 close_dumpfile routine was called, the dump file handle
was no longer valid, so any remaining output was lost. This
patch fixes the problem by manually detaching the VPI modules.

This patch fixes an obscure memory leak and make the formatting

When handling the $signed/$unsigned system functions, the compiler
was applying the new signed/unsigned property to the NetExpr object
representing the input argument. This caused the input argument to
be evaluated incorrectly. This patch fixes this by applying the new
property to the NetExpr object created to pad the result to the
required size.
In testing this fix, it was also discovered that the width of the
input argument expression was not being calculated correctly. This
patch also fixes this issue.

After changing an array word, vvp propagates the change to every port
attached to the array. The code did not properly handle the case of
an array port declared in an automatic scope with an associated array
declared in a static scope.
This patch fixes a few bugs in constant bit/part selects and
adds optional warnings for out of bound or undefined selects.
(cherry picked from commit 5a0363ebd3)
The padding for a signal select was using the signal to determine
if the padding should be singed or not. In reality this should be
unsigned padding unless the select was enclosed in a $signed().
(cherry picked from commit 458258d554)
The compiler and vvp runtime don't correctly handle casts to reals
when the source value is more than 63 bits in magnitude. This is
fixed in devel, but can't be backported to v0.9 because it adds new
vvp instructions. This patch causes the compiler to output a warning
about potentiall incorrect results.
The vvp thread word storage had previously been changed to always store
64-bit values, but some instructions still only operate on native long
values. This patch ensures all instructions that modify thread words
support 64-bit values.
dlltool which is used by both MinGW and Cygwin to create dynamic
libraries must have the name of the executable it creates the
library/information from exactly match the installed executable
name. If we have a suffix then it must be used. This patch adds
that to the build process for vvp since it can be installed with
a suffix. It also modifies the check routines since you must run
vvp with a suffix if the library it links to was built for a
suffixed executable.
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.
When evaluating a function argument expression we need to use either
the expression width or the argument width which ever is larger. This
matches the way normal assignments work. We then only take the bits
needed at the end.
Newer versions of GHDL seem to be stricter when checking this than
older versions. ModelSim still accepts an incomplete with-select,
however.
This patch makes the output 'U' if none of the conditions match.

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 C directories
like this it makes sense to enable the warnings. 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.

The MinGW executable should be able to support a path with mixed

The fix for pr1830834 causes vvp to only delete a completed thread
when the simulation time next advances. If a procedural model is
being simulated which makes many task or function calls within a
single time step, this can lead to excessive memory use. This patch
modifies the behaviour so that thread deletion is only delayed if
that thread has caused a sync event to be placed in the event queue.
This should catch all cases where the thread private data can be
accessed after a thread has terminated.

(cherry picked from commit 2e60a181c0)
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.

This patch fixes a few more issues related to building
in a remote directory. The start of the problem was
that the version file was not getting built correctly.
This necessitated using vpath instead of VPATH to only
allow the %.cc files. After that a few other places
needed to have $(srcdir) added.
The distclean target was also enhance so that when
building from a remote directory (srcdir != .) we
remove all the extra files and directories.

(cherry picked from commit 711365521d)
If a function in a continuous assignment is passed an array word as
an argument, syntactically incorrect vvp code is generated. This is
because the code calls draw_net_input to generate the input labels
part way through writing out the .ufunc statement. If an input is
an array word, draw_net_input causes a .array/port statement to be
emitted, which gets written out in the middle of the .ufunc statement.
This patch fixes the problem by collecting the necessary input labels
prior to starting writing the .ufunc statement.
(cherry picked from commit 9950704735)
The $setuphold and $recrem timing checks can create delayed signals
that are needed to get a model to work correctly when negative timing
check values are used. Since we do not support timing checks and just
ignore them this can create simulation problems when a user tries to
use these delayed signals since they are not driven.
This patch adds a waring when the circuit is being compiled that these
delayed signals will not be driven. This will be needed until we get
time to add the real timing checks are mimic the delayed properties of
the timing check.

(cherry picked from commit c167b3a01f)
Use the time stamp file technique recommended by the autoconf manual
to prevent unneccesary rebuilds because of an unchanged config.h.
Uses the automake trick of generating the stamp files in the
_AC_AM_CONFIG_HEADER_HOOK macro instead of littering the source
directory with stamp-h.in files.
Add an extra ./config.status run after ./config.status --recheck
because with --recheck it doesn't actually try to remake the generated
files (and thus doesn't make the timestamp files). Thus without the
extra run, each stamp-*-h target would need to independently run
./config.status to make sure it wasn't changed by the configuration
change.
An orthogonal fix of how config.status is called in subdirectories.
When in a subdirectory and config.status is called with
../config.status and $(srcdir) is a relative path, config.status gets
confused. Fixed by replacing '../config.status --file=Makefile.in'
with 'cd ..; ./config.status --file=<dir>/Makefile.in'

This patch adds code to cleanup system functions driving a

of the nets and signals that were not cleaned up that is
pnly printed when running valgrind. They are not flagged
y valgrind since they are pool managed objects. There are
a few signals that need to be cleaned up and local nets
are missed so there are a lot of nets.

In the MinGW version of iverilog-vpi (C version located in driver-vpi)

Under some situation the optimized repeat expression can get out
of sync while it is being processed this causes the code to
reference freed memory. This happens when the repeat expression
is converted to an unsigned integer, but the repeat expression
is used in a different path. It was easier to just remove the
optimization then track down the convoluted call sequence that
was causing this and then figure out what needed to be fixed.
The repeat expression must be constant, so is likely not too
complicated so this optimization is very minor and should not
be missed.

When checking for name collisions, the compiler looks for genvar

(cherry picked from commit 2e166b7279)
This patch adds $ferror() support. This is enhanced over what the standard
says needs to be supported. All file I/O routines set/clear the errno flag,
This allows $ferror() to check when an invalid fd/MCD is passed to a
system task. The $ferror() fd is only checked if errno is not set since
all the other routines will set EBADF when they are called. This allows us
to test the output from $fopen() which sets the fd to zero (an invalid fd)
when it has a problem.
The following bugs (changes) are also fixed:
Fix $fdisplay*, $fwrite*, $fstrobe*, $fflush, $fclose to not accept 0 as
a valid MCD.
For the $fdisplay*, $fwrite* and $fstrobe tasks an invalid fd/MCD is now
a warning instead of an error like the other file I/O routines.
Modify $fputc() to be a function and return a value like $ungetc().
Modify $ungetc() to return a value like the standard dictates (-1 on
error else 0) and pass the value as a full int to get EOF as an error.
Remove some extra checks that could not happen in $fseek() and to
be safe convert the numeric codes to the system symbolic values.
Skip $fstrobe callback when the fd/MCD is closed. The standard says
we need to cancel the callback, but we currently do not have the
ability to do that so just skipping this will work for now.
Free the argument handle when $fscanf() is called with an invalid fd
(memory leak).
(cherry picked from commit ce89a68735)

Currently, edge event functors declared in automatically allocated
scopes that are used to detect edges on signals declared in static

the functors, so the old state of the signals can be initialised
to the correct value when a new automatic context is created.

It also fixes a minor glitch in the data type calculation code. This
was causing a problem if a zero width replication was the first
element in a concatenation/replication since the data type was hard
coded to the first element of the concatenation/replication. It now
uses the first defined element in the concatenation/replication to
determine the data type.
(cherry picked from commit b629d913d2)
This patch evaluates the whole concatenation expression and
makes the concatenation padding sign aware. This is needed
when $signed({...}) is passed as an argument.
A repetition is just N copies of the base expression not N
evaluations of the base expression. This is only a problem
when functions have side effects. It's also faster to copy.
The evaluation must also be done when the replication count
is zero (see 1364-2005).

The $fscanf() and $sscanf() functions are defined to return EOF when
the end of input is reached before any matches or match failures have
occurred.

When a C-style comment /* */ is being skipped because it is in a
skipped `ifdef, `ifndef, etc. directive then we need to output a
'\n' at any comment end of line.
(cherry picked from commit e932c41587)
Add code to the generic get_array_word_size() function to correctly
find the width of net arrays and use this routine in the _vthr_
code as needed.
(cherry picked from commit 212bd4134a)
Make the code smarter so it can keep fewer items in the lists.
Scopes and explicitly given variables are all that is kept.
Includes a few other refinements.
This patch adds support for dumping named events to the VCD
dumper only. The LXT and LXT2 will be added once this has
been tested more. It also reworks the $dumpvars routine
to be more consistent concerning warning messages for duplicate
signal dump requests and fixes some bugs.
For events you will get extra events at T0 and at $dumpon. I
plan to fix this, but that is much more involved.
For duplicate signal warnings. Implicit duplicates loaded
automatically from a scope will not display a warning. Only
an explicit signal request will print a warning if it was
already included. All other will be silently ignored. This
should limit the warning to only what the user cares about.
For example:
$dumpvars(0, var, scope_that_includes_var);
Will work without a warning message.
$dumpvars(0, scope_that_includes_var, var);
Will generate a warning since the var was already included
by the scope request.
Other enhancements include the start of including type
information in the output. For now integer is added, the
other type information will require changes to the code
generator and hence will only be done in development.
This was incorrectly using the expression sign not checking if
the two sub-expressions are both signed. This likely used to
work, but in the context of $signed which sets the expression
to signed so we can have a signed expression without both
sub-expressions being signed.
An implicit sensitivity list that has selects (bit, part, indexed
part or array) will include more than the user expects so print a
warning to let them know what will happen. Other simulators have
the same behavior, but I believe this is incorrect and needs to
be fixed to only include the appropriate parts. The warnings can
go when we fix this functionality, but we need them now to warn
the user that they may not be getting what they expect. One other
simulator warns for array selects.
This patch also adds the array index to the sensitivity list.
This patch fixes a number of bugs related to real variable and net
arrays. Specifically the following:
1. When iterating over (scanning) a net array start at base index 0
not index 1.
2. Don't fail when iterating over (scanning) a real variable array.
3. Run the array_word_change() routine when a real variable array
word is changed. This allows array ports and value change
callbacks to work correctly.
4. Update the array_word_change() routine to work with real variable
arrays.
5. Update the array port code to support real variable arrays.
6. find_name() needs to also iterate over net array words just like
memory array words.
7. Initialize all real array words to 0.0 when the array is created.
This patch removes some of the unneeded differences in the
various dumper routines. This is the start of a complete
refactoring, but the first task is to make them as common
as possible and this is the start of that.
When processing procedural real expressions we need to evaluate
non-real sub-expressions as bit based expressions and then
convert the result to a real value. This is particularly import
for integer division.
This patch changes the initial buffer size when displaying results
to 512 from 256. This initial buffer is used as the default for the
floating point results and failed when %f is given a large, but
valid value. To make this even more safe we add the precision to
the size to make sure we do not overflow the buffer.
This patch cleans up some unneeded code. Releases some allocated
memory before the compiler quits and fixes a couple minor memory
leaks in the compiler and vvp code generator.
The fd table used to be statically allocated with only 32 entries.
Three of these were preallocated for stdin, stdout and stderr
leaving only 29 for the user. This patch makes the allocation of
this table dynamic with a hard limit at 1024 total fds. The table
is increased in 32 bit chunks.
Someone got a bit too creative in reducing the original equations
I wrote to handle this. This patch reverts the previous code and
uses my original equations. This passes for both wide and narrow
vectors. The equations are slightly more complicated, but the old
z2x conversion had some overhead. I would expect the time to be
about the same, but you now get the correct results.
This patch adds code to parse and ignore the following timing checks:
$nochange 1364-1995
$skew 1364-1995
$fullskew 1364-2001
$removal 1364-2001
$timeskew 1364-2001
The other checks were already supported. These have not been tested,
but they use the same basic terms as the other checks. We can fully
test these when we actually implement them.
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.
During macro expansion (with arguments), there is one global buffer
(exp_buf) that keeps getting reallocated to fit all the macro's text
that's currently being expanded. The problem with this scheme is that if
a macro with arguments needs to be expanded from the macro text of another
macro with arguments, it may happen that the second expansion forces
the above exp_buf buffer to be reallocated. Which is fine until the
previous macro processing resumes where (struct include_stack_t *)->str
now points to uninitialised memory. Basically, the code that can trigger
such behaviour is as follows:
`define FOO(a) (a+3)
`define BAR(b) (`FOO(b)+2)
`BAR(x)
Ofcourse, you need to get lucky to get the exp_buf to be realloced at the
right point, but it's possible.
I don't see the advantage in keeping all the expanding macro's text
together, so my solution is to simply allocate a new buffer and pass it
as (struct include_stack_t *)->str to the flex parsing function and free
it at the end.
Icarus has recognized this directive, but it did not do anything
with the information. This patch adds the functionality for most
common cases. It adds this by changing the input net type from
wire/tri to tri1 or tri0 depending on the pull. The issue is that
if the input net is not a wire or tri this is not safe and should
really be done as an external pull gate connected to the input.
We will need to handle this is it ever comes up. For now a sorry
message is printed.
Previously Icarus only supported a default net type of wire or none.
This patch adds the rest of the supported net types (all except
uwire and trireg) to the `default_nettype directive. It also fixes
make_implicit_net_() to use the default_nettype instead of always
using implicit (the same as wire).
This patch reworks the `timescale directive to do a better
job of parsing the line, it refactors some of the code and
should produce better error messages. It also tightens up
parsing the numeric constant, etc. to better match the
Verilog standard.
The parsing of `line has been enhanced to only allow 0, 1 or
2 for the level and a single line comment at the end of the
line is ignored.
This patch adds support for the `resetall directive.
It also changes `celldefine, `endcelldefine and `resetall
to no longer grab text following them. These directives do
not take an argument so they should not be grabbing any
text and silently discarding it.
The `timescale processing was reworked to handle being
reset and hooks were added to easily change the default
time units and precision when we add that feature request.
This patch adds support to the compiler and stub backend for
`celldefine. This matches the compiler portion of the full
support that was added to 0.10.devel. This does not change
vvp or the vvp interface since changing the interface is not
allowed in a stable branch.
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.
It looks pretty stupid and non-c++-y, but it does remove two compiler warnings
vvp/stop.cc: In function 'void stop_handler(int)':
vvp/stop.cc:492: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*'
vvp/stop.cc:493: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*'
This patch modifies the real parameter get_value routine to use
the standard vpip_real_get_value() routine. This routine has
support for an integer and a decimal string value.
The standard allows an output declared as "output reg" to be
given an initialization assignment in the output declaration.
this patch adds that functionality. Specifically:
output reg out = 1'b0;
works as expected.
Icarus support returning a string version of a macro ``<MACRO>.
The problem was that it did not escape '\' or '"' so if the
macro to be escaped had either of these it would create an
invalid string. This patch fixes this by translating these two
codes to their octal equivalent when the macro is converted.
This patch fixes the three %assign/v0/x1 operators to correctly
notice that the select has fallen off the start of the vector
for the case that the negative offset equaled the width.
When dumping an array word the name is implicitly converted to
an escaped identifier. If this implicit name conflicts with an
explicitly created escaped identifier this patch will print a
warning message warning that the array word will conflict with
an escaped identifier.
This patch adds code to automatically dump the output stream
including any dump file when entering interactive mode. When
the user typed ^C or $stop was executed.
Dumping array words is an enhancement that we have added to Icarus.
The problem was that if you wanted to dump the whole array you would
like to use a for loop as follows:
for (lp = 0; lp < max ; lp = lp + 1) $dumpvars(0, array[lp]);
This used to work, but some of the VPI rework broke it because it
counted on the word select to be constant. This patch restores the
functionality by converting the variable word select into a constant
word select in the calltf routine. This is done without warning and
only for the $dumpvars() routine.
Adding this functionality necessitated adding support for vpiIndex
to the &A<> routines.
In 1364-2005 it is an explicit error to take the select of a scalar
or real value. We added the checks for real a while ago. This patch
adds the functionality for scalar values. In the future we may want
to push the scalar property to the run time.
This patch add code to print a warning message if it finds both a
default and `timescale based delays. The -Wall or more specifically
the -Wtimescale flag can be used to find the module with the missing
`timescale directive.
This patch adds interactive support for $stop and $finish.
$stop displays a message that the simulator is already stopped.
$finish acts exactly like (calls) the interactive "finish"
command. Having $stop do nothing and $finish not finish until
you exit interactive mode is not very intuitive.
This patch adds better error messages (compiletf) for the optional
system tasks and functions (Annex C 1364-2005). Doing this also
makes calling them fail more gracefully (it is no longer a RE).
This patch add a new system function $readmempath. It accepts
a ":" separated list of directories that $readmem{b,h} will
use when trying to open a given file. If the file given to
$readmem{b,h} starts with a '/' (an absolute path) the search
list will not be used. A new call to $readmempath will replace
the previous search list with the given list. The search list
elements are check to see if they exist and are directories.
If not a warning will be displayed and they will not be added
to the list.
This patch allows a macro expansion to have an argument which
itself has multiple arguments (handle nested ",").
(cherry picked from commit 047828ded0)
This patch adds support for recursive module loops if the
loop contains a generate block. The assumption is that the
user is doing the right thing in the generate block to make
the loop terminate. For this case there is also a check
that limits the number of loops (default 10). This prevents
the system from crashing when the user did not correctly
terminate the looping structure. The limit can be changed
by the user if needed.

Most conversion codes in the scanf routines are supposed to

(cherry picked from commit e987162cb9)
This patch fixes the code generator to correctly create three value
constant delays. It also fixes a bug in the compiler related to the
precalculation of the high-Z delay when only two delays are given.
Previously if was using a pointer not a value comparison to find
the minimum value.
Variable delays should work when one or three values are given.
For the two value case we need to do a comparison at run time and
that will require changing the compiler/run time interface so that
can only go into the V0.10 branch. This patch can be applied to
both development and V0.9. I have added a sorry message and an
assert for this case. I will add the variable two delay case at a
later time. We also do not support mixing constant and variable
delays on a single statement. That is a much bigger change and
can wait until someone asks for it.

This patch adds basic support for getting and putting values to
real array words. This will be finished during the VPI rework.
(cherry picked from commit 1dbc517164)
The previous code looked for more than one array word to determine
if the given signal was an array or not. The problem with this is
that a single word memory was considered a signal. This is fixed
here by looking for an array_dimension to be greater than zero.
(cherry picked from commit 3d449f60a2)
This patch fixes the following problems in the right shift code.
The >>> result is only signed if the l-arg is also signed.
The r-arg is always unsigned.
Only sign extend the l-arg when the >>> operator is used.
This relates to an optimization for certain constant shifts.
Removed some obsoleted/outdated code.

When the VAMS math functions were originally built we did a
straight copy of the log() function to $log(). This can
conflict with other Verilog-D definitions of $log. We
need to deprecate this function and remove it before the
next major release.
This patch adds the $fread() system function. Icarus does not
currently allow missing arguments in functions so the following
standard specified functionality is not supported:
res = $fread(mem, fd,,count);
It also fixes a memory leak in fopen related to the get_filename
refactoring I recently did.
This patch adds support for virtualized register arrays to the
tgt-stub back end.
Based Cary's patch, but with a slightly different style.
Both work fine.
To get the correct print format for a 64 bit value it is much
better to use <inttypes.h> (when available) than building our
own value. This allows MinGW to use the non-standard I64.

When a pin array is virtual, dll_target::signal() doesn't need
to make a corresponding set of stub nexa.
This patch includes new detection of oversized arrays, configurable
with the ARRAY_SIZE_LIMIT flag. This limit only applies to devirtualized
arrays; virtual arrays are only limited by your architecture's
unsigned int type.
The concept and earlier versions of this patch have been successfully
stress-tested by multiple people. This one causes no testsuite
regressions on my machine.

Reduces resource usage when compiling large memories.
Normal usage patterns still create large nexus arrays
in t-dll.cc:dll_target::signal().
This patch is extensively tested; it shouldn't break anything.
The existing debug "optimizer" flag is (ab)used to control
message printing when large (>1000 element) arrays are
devirtualized or nexus-ized.
The new global variable disable_virtual_pins is available
to force allocation of Pin arrays when they are declared,
but no user interface is provided.

Limit memory sizes to whatever fits in unsigned; crash if

This patch adds messages in various places to warn that constant
user functions are not supported. It uses a global variable to
indicate when we are in a constant context. This is a bit of a
kludge, but works well without needing to change a bunch of code.
It is interesting to note that ports are elaborated late enough
that if we had the constant function evaluation code they would
evaluate correctly. This also applies to the function return
range, the concatenation repeat, specparams and initial values.
Signal definitions are early enough that elaboration is what is
failing because the function body is not available (has not been
elaborated). The same thing applies to both parameters and
localparms.
This patch adds compiletf routines for the $sscanf/$fscanf
functions. It does not enhance the conversion routines it
only adds better error/warning messages.
It also removed the redundant IS_MCD in some of the fileio
calltf routines. This is already checked in vpi_get_file().
I also added the vpiNetArray type to allow us to distinguish
arrays of nets from other arrays (memories). Much more is
needed here, but this solved the problem of the day. The
problem was that we needed to make sure we could assign to
the word of a variable array, but not the word of a net array.
It's actually probably not needed since Icarus converts the
net array word reference to just the net, but I thought it
prudent to make sure things didn't slip by.
This patch adds compiletf routines for the mti random functions
and adds a common routine to check for extra arguments. It also
adds file and line information to the rest of the compiletf
routines that were missing them.
This patch adds compilef routines for the readmemb/h and
writememb/h system tasks. It also fixes some errors related
to arrays with negative range values. You can not specify a
negative address in the file, but arrays with negative range
values or negative start/finish argument to the tasks are
supported. It also generates an error when reading invalid
character from the input file.
A significant amount of the code is common between the two
styles of tasks so this has been grouped into common
routines.
It also adds a common routine for getting a string that will
be used as a file name. This routine is used by any task
that requires a file name value. If a filename has a
non-printable character it will be displayed as a \octal
constant to show what the character is.
Updates the dumping routines to match each other better,
improves some error messages and fixes a bug in the LXT2
dumper when dumping greater than 32 bit delays.
If the builder wants to build the package with an install suffix,
the %{suff} variable makes that easy. Just define that value as
needed, and there you go.
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.
This is mostly a minor definition change in the parsing of literal
numbers by the vvp lexor. Allow for 64bit numbers in the .delay
records, and have the code generator also able to cope with the
situation.
Icarus Verilog internally is not white-space clean. We need to make
sure the configured paths that cause the most trouble are clean and
usable. It is still possible to mess things up downstream, but at least
this should help.
Previously Icarus normalized the results so array [7:0] would
be the same as array [0:7]. This works just fine for
simulation, but the VPI calls can select the left or right
value and this was incorrect for the [7:0] case since it was
being normalized to [0:7]. This patch swaps the two values in
the a.out file and from this creates the previous first/last
values and a new flag that can be used to get the correct
left and right values for the VPI interface.
Allows iverilog to parse attribute like syntax that a common
simuator puts into automatically generated verilog code. This
syntax cannot be found in any of the IEEE standards.
Wires are not allowed as l-values of procedural assignments, even if
the wire is an array. Fix the checker to detect this case event when
the l-value is an array.
It is possible for an identifier to have multiple index expressions.
(For example, a part select of a memory word.) Make sure all the
index expressions are probed for width and type.
And also, note that the unary ! returns BOOL or LOGIC, not just
the type of its operand. It is slightly different from the other
unary operators in that way.
The test_width for repeat-concatenations is tricky because it
requires the evaluated value for the repeat expression. It should
be OK to call elab_and_eval on that expression even during the
test_width for the containing expression. We'll see.
This patch adds support for 64 bit non-blocking delays in procedural
code. We fixed the procedural delay operator (blocking delays) earlier.
This patch mostly mimics what was done there. The continuous assignment
delay operator still needs to be fixed.
This patch adds logical support for real values (!, && and ||). It
also prints an appropriate error message when a real value is
incorrectly given to an operator that does not allow real arguments
(bit-wise, reduction, shift and repeat/concatenation).
Two bugs:
(1) propagating values through the branch accidentally also
did a part select.
(2) Not all nodes of the branch nexus didn't receive a calculated
values, even though they were all marked as done.
In the process, I cleaned up the code a bit, and documented it for
better understanding.
This patch adds support for the other edges 01, 10, etc. These still
need to be verified in the context of IOPATHs, but they are ignored
in the timing checks and that's what was needed.
This patch updates the compiletf for $sdf_annotate() to better
check the arguments and to display the file and line location
when an error/warning does occur. It does the same for the
calltf messages. It also fixes a couple of subtle bugs.
First we need to look for a NULL string not a NULL value. The
result buffer should always be defined so will never be NULL.
Next if a scope has no modules we should return like the module
was not found (return 0) vs asserting.
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.
The code was using vpi_free_object() to free a vpiCallback
object and that was creating a memory leak since this is a
do nothing routine. You need to explicitly use delete.
The newer mkinstalldirs can handle paths that have spaces in them.
While I'm at it, I also updated the Makefiles so that installation
can also work to DESTDIR directories that have spaces.
When cleaning up the &A<> and &PV<> we need to check if the handle
argument is a nested call to another &A<> or &PV<> if it is then
we need to also delete that construct.
We also need to cleanup the vcd_info information list.
This patch adds code to generate process-local variables
for scopes of type IVL_SCT_BLOCK. This also handles using
the correct assignment operator (:=) for the local VHDL
variables.
This patch adds code to free most of the memory when vvp
finishes. It also adds valgrind hooks to manage the various
memory pools. The functionality is enabled by passing
--with-valgrind to configure. It requires that the
valgrind/memcheck.h header from a recent version of
valgrind be available. It check for the existence of this
file, but not that it is new enough (version 3.1.3 is known
to not work and version 3.4.0 is known to work).
You can still use valgrind when this option is not given,
but you will have memory that is not released and the
memory pools show as a single block.
With this vvp is 100% clean for many of the tests in the
test suite. There are still a few things that need to be
cleaned up, but it should be much easier to find any real
leaks now.
Enabling this causes a negligible increase in run time and
memory. The memory could be a problem for very large
simulations. The increase in run time is only noticeable on
very short simulations where it should not matter.

Probable behavior change. Passes testsuite.
This patch cleans up the V-2005 and V-analog math functions to
free their allocated memory at the end of simulation. It also
modifies the veriusertfs code to do the same thing.
It also closes the VCD file at EOS.
This avoids generating invalid VHDL signal names in the
following cases:
- The name begins or ends with an underscore
- The name contains two consecutive underscores
- The name is the same as a component declaration
- The name differs from another only in case
This fixes a bug where temporary variables could be declared
more than once.
It also takes out a debugging print statement I accidentally
left in the last patch.
I forgot to modify the LPM generating code with the
last patch. This *should* now always ensure a signal
is readable before code is generated to read from it.
This patch corrects several bugs with the generation of
VHDL `buffer' ports. The code generator should now
generate a buffer only if the port needs to be read inside
the architecture, otherwise it will stay `out'.
This also correct a bug where an output port is connected
directly to the output of an instantiated component. Generating
`buffer's would work here, but a more idiomatic VHDL approach is
to declare an intermediate signal which both outputs are connected
to. This is implemented in the patch (fixes the regression of
readout.v in the testsuite).
If an &A() operator contains a label for an array that has not
yet been declared, vvp fails with an assertion error. This
patch delays the calls to array_find() in the functions that
compile &A() operators, using the usual resolve list mechanism.
Noticed this as part of the test case for pr2516774b. Under some
circumstances the input arguments would be cast to the wrong type.
This patch ensures that all the arguments have the correct type.
This patch changes the output of VHDL unsigned bit strings
which are 4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 bits to use VHDL hex string
constants.
So the following:
"00000001"
Becomes
X"01"
Which is much easier to read
This is a fix for pr2527366 where draw_nexus would sometimes
generate code to drive an input from in an input (where they
should have been left unconnected)
The patch for pr2516774 exposed a bug which caused
always3.1.8A to fail. This patch corrects that.
The test to decide when to use a sensitivity list
rather than an explicit wait statement wasn't tight enough.
This patch is a fix for pr2516774.
The idea is to generate a local variable inside
a function whenever an argument is assigned to. The
variable has an initial value of the argument value
and is used in its place for the remainder of the
function. This patch also handles the case where the
argument is assigned to inside a while loop.
Previously the VHDL code generator managed memory for
the AST objects by requiring that each AST element be
responsible for deleting its children. The disadvantages
of this are that it's quite easy to accidentally leak
memory by forgetting to delete a child, and no AST pointers
may be shared by multiple parents (or we'd end up with
double-deletes) -- this results in unnecessary copies of
objects being made.
There's no real need for fine-grained memory management of
AST objects since once they're allocated they tend to
persist until the code generator is about to terminate, when
they should all be freed.
This patch provides a custom new/delete operator for
vhdl_element which logs the vhdl_element objects allocated
in a std::vector (after calling the default operator new).
Once the code generator is finished a single free_all_objects
call deletes all the AST objects in one go. The custom delete
operator is required so that we can still explicitly deallocate
vhdl_element objects before the code generator completes.
There are also some allocation statistics printed at the end
when -pdebug=1 is specified.
This patch fixes some issues in the previous patch. Specifically
I need to use vpi_mcd_printf and some trickery was needed to
prevent the compiler from complaining about the format string.
Most named objects should have a vpiModule handle to get a handle
to the enclosing module. This patch adds code to get this for all
the elements that I could find that needed it.
It also adds a three more names to vpi_get_str(vpiType, ...) and
fixes a problem in the vpiLeftRange for PV signals.
For most cases just using the value of a parameter is fine, but
a vpi call can access more than the value so we want to use a
parameter reference instead of the value for vpi calls.
Strings were working correctly, integer values need some minor
code generator changes and real values needed to be pushed from
elaboration to the code generators. I also changed the default
real value comment from %g to %#g so that it is more obvious
that the value is a real value.
This completes the transition to the new string based formatting.
All the tasks now use the string formatting routines. Better
compile time checking and better messages were also added.
Also a couple of types were added to vpi_get_str(vpiType, ...)
and the calculation for vpiConstantSelect was fixed for both
the &A<> and &PV<> constructs. If the value is a plain variable
or if it is calculated in thread space we assume it is not a
constant. This may not be true because of limitations/bugs in
the compiler (constant user functions are one known problem).
Certain paths through vpi_put_value cause a vpip_put_value_event to
be created with no path for deleting in. Add the capability in the
schedule_generic method, so that it can be delete as soon as it is
executed.
This patch modifies $strobe and $fstrobe to use the string
formatting routines. It also combines the $display/$write
and $fdisplay/$fwrite routines into one and removes the
old routines that are no longer needed.
This patch fixes vvp to use the standard static result buffer
when returning the vector value of a constant string. The
previous calloc method was creating a memory leak.
With this small patch, building succeeds with Debian's current gcc-snapshot,
gcc (Debian 20090107-1) 4.4.0 20090107 (experimental) [trunk revision 143170]
That build shows no regressions in the test suite. The patch does not
break building, or show test suite regressions, with gcc-4.3.
That new gcc version still emits a pile of new and arguably bogus warnings
"dereferencing pointer '<anonymous>' does break strict-aliasing rules" for
elaborate.cc:3422
StringHeap.h:31
vvp/vvp_net.h:687 (really vvp/vvp_net.h:825)
This patch fixes some more memory leaks in vvp. Mostly related
to UDP compilation and one in find_scope() that was found when
testing the VPI code. The leak in ivlpp was that the define
temporary buffer not being freed when the lexor was finished.
This patch fixes a bunch of memory leaks in vvp and converts the
T_STRING lexical token to be new based. There are still two
known leaks that I need to find a way to fix and likely some
unknown leaks that still need to be found and fixed.
When doing right shift of unsized expressions, pad the left operand
so that the right shift does not lose. This better accounts for the
lossless expectations of unsized arguments.
Seemingly does nothing, just refactors to create two new methods:
bool NetPins::is_linked(void)
void NetNet::initialize_value_and_dir(verinum::V init_value, Link::DIR dir)
and rearranges netlist.h.
This patch causes no regression in the testsuite.
It smooths the way for any attempt to address pr2023076.
This patch makes the $fdisplay() and $fwrite() family of task
use the string formatting code. It also adds a compiletf routine
for the tasks and a run time check that the FD or MCD is correct.
If not it fails instead of just dropping the output.
It also cleans up a couple of memory leaks and adds no argument
compiletf routines for the $monitoron/$monitoroff tasks.
Verireal had hooks for this, but had an assert(0). This patch
replaces the assert(0) with assert(gn_icarus_misc_flag) and
then used fmod() to calculate the modulus. It is the callers
responsibility to verify and report a message to the user
if the current state should not support real modulus.
The STRING lexical token was malloc based, but then was passed
to routines that are expecting a new based result. This patch
standardizes on a new/delete based approach.
This patch fixes some technically benign problems found by valgrind,
but we may as well give the values a default to make sure things
work correctly. I believe that the default I choose is the
appropriate value for the context.
The other problem is that real valued (local)parameters should be
printed as a real value like a real variable, etc. Trying to
do this as a decimal with the string formatting was causing a
memory problem. I could have fixed the routine to handle this,
but the better solution was to just display things the right way.
By not creating Nexus objects until necessary, we avoid creating a
lot of spurious objects. In fact, it is true that almost every
link that is created and connected to another link will create a
spurious Nexus object without this patch.
This patch generates VHDL sensitivity lists for sequential
as well as combinatorial processes which do not contain
a wait statement. Otherwise it falls back on the original
wait-on/until behaviour.
This should make the generated VHDL more acceptable to
synthesisers.
This patch generates a sensitivity list for combinatorial
VHDL processes if they don't contain a wait statement, and
a wait-on statement if they do contain another wait statement.
This should help synthesisers correctly identifier
level-sensitive latches.
In particular this improves the code generated for flip-flops
so the output can be synthesised with certain tools (e.g. Synopsis).
See the comments above draw_synthesisable_wait for more details.
This patch does a number of things.
It adds file and line number information to the strobe_cb_info
structure. This allows the $swrite and $sformat calls to reference
their location in warning/error messages.
Their compiletf and calltf routines also display file and line
number information in messages.
The $display routine was converted to use the string formatting
routine. This can be reverted by defining USE_OLD_DISPLAY. The
old code will be removed once there has been more testing.
A number of bugs were fixed that were discovered with the
$display code.
The output of some conversions, variables and system functions
were changed to match the original display code or to better
match expectation.
Leading zero support was added to the %b/%b, %o/%O, %h/%H, %x/%X,
%c/%C and %d/%D. The floating point conversions already supported
adding a leading zero.
This is the start of converting all the various display tasks to use
the string formatting code and a cleanup/update of the sys_display.c
file in general.
Rather then spread VERSION= defines throughout all the makefiles, put
the base version in version_base.in. Use that to generate a version.h
that includes the base version as well as the detailed version.
Part selects need to be fully defined. If not, then the resulting
expression is 'bx no matter what. The same for bit selects, when
the bit select expression is constant.
This reverts commit 31d67fcd3e.
The concensus has been that this causes too many build problems in
the general case and what is needed instead is a way to turn on the
extra warnings for developers only.
CFLAGS has the appropriate -W flags defined while CXXFLAGS is
just the default. The script iverilog-vpi uses CXXFLAGS because
it is defined in the Makefile to have the -W flags. This
directory is C based so does not define CXXFLAGS.
Add code to check for a plain delay statement (just a delay).
When one is found generate a null statement and do not add it
(the null statement) to result.
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.
The code base is almost shadow-free now, so this won't add much noise to the compiles.
Problems I know about:
lxt{,2}_write.c: patch sent upstream
cflexor.c: exposes gray area of name space boundary
Finish 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 the test suite.
This is the end of the simple, coordination-free patches.
The remaining shadows are special cases that will need extra attention.
When the parameter up index was being reworked someone mistakenly
used the pointer value instead of the actual value in the MSB/LSB
comparison. This obviously could give incorrect results.
This fixes up the elaboration of binary expressions found in
parameter expressions. Parameter expressions are special because
they elaborate early, before all the other parameters are necessarily
completed.
Having our users manually edit their .git/info/exclude is
tedious and this information belongs in the code repository.
So this patch creates a file .gitignore that contains the
appropriate information to exclude all the normal files
that should never be tracked in git..
The Makefile.in was incorrectly changed and this broke compilation
on MinGW. This patch basically reverts the previous changes and
uses a few more $(srcdir) paths.
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.
Previously only the X/Z state of the label expression was
considered to be a don't care. This patch adds that
functionality to the conditional expression as well.
This patch cleans up the Makefile.in files.
We only need to delete config.log in the lower directories.
We reference the *.in files at $(srcdir)/
We need to make distclean for the tgt-(fpga,pal,verilog) directories.
This is to cleanup the Makefile.
Add some missing "rm -r f dep"
I know we are not currently using this, but configure is building
the Makefile so it would be best if it didn't complain. This patch
adds a datarootdir target and fixes the Makefile and distclean
targets.
cadpli will not compile correctly unless it knows which DL
interface to use. This patch makes it include config.h to get
this definition. It also cleans up the Makefile.in.
This patch adds support for concatenation/repetition, signals and
part and bit select of signals for casez/x expression labels.
These along with the original constants can be mixed in almost any
order. Only constant selects are currently supported.
Specifying -pdepth=N only outputs entities that correspond
to Verilog modules found at depth < N in the hierarchy.
Setting -pdepth=0 (the default) outputs all entities.
This is for feature request 2391457
Collapse all the configure checks to a single configure script in
the root of the source tree. This makes the configure process run
a lot faster, expecially on Windows systems that are slower in general.
It is recommended that AC_CYGWIN not be used and under MinGW
the previous test was complaining about multiple calls to
AC_CANONICAL_HOST. The new test performs the same function
and also displays the MinGW status if we are compiling on
windows.
Also removed a AX_CCP_IDENT call in the vpi directory and
tgt-null is built by the top configure so there is no need
to try to run configure in that directory.
A native MinGW compile was not setting these to the correct
value. This patch makes them match what Cygwin uses. Adding
the -Wl,--enable-auto-image-base should make vvp load
slightly faster since it loads multiple DLL files.
This patch fixes the crash in MinGW make distclean. The problem
was that vpi/ and driver-vpi/ were being called twice and the
MinGW make was failing on the second call since the Makefile
was already removed.
Add a dependency on config.h and _pli_types.h in the make all
target. It is likely that only _pli_types.h was needed, but
this makes it clear that they need to be rebuilt if the .in
files change.
The lower directories that depend on the top level config.status
now have a target to rebuild the local Makefile file it the
corresponding Makefile.in changes.
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 optimises away straight line sequences like:
wait for 0 ns;
wait for X ns;
to:
wait for X ns;
This tidies up the output a bit.
It also has the effect of removing all code from initial
processes where the assignments have been extracted as
VHDL signal intialisers. (c.f. pr2391337)
This prints out an error message rather than crashing out with
an assertion failure when a function assigns to a non-local
variable, which cannot be done in VHDL.
This changes the assignment statement generator so that
each VHDL declaration "knows" which type of assignment
statement can/should be used on (i.e. signals must be
assigned with <=). This will help us catch cases when
we try to use, for example, := with signals. This occurs
in pr2362211 where we try to assign to a signal within
a function (where only := can be used).
If a module's input was connected to a nexus that contained
a constant driver. That constant would be incorrectly generated
as an assignment to the input *inside* the child module (instead
of an assignment inside the instantiating module).
Remove the #ident and $Log$ strings from all the header files and
almost all of the C/C++ source files. I think it is better to get
this done all at once, then to wait for each of the files to be
touched and edited in unrelated patches.
With this small patch, building succeeds with Debian's current gcc-snapshot,
gcc (Debian 20081130-1) 4.4.0 20081130 (experimental) [trunk revision 142292]
That gcc also warns about the remaining #idents in
vvp/concat.cc
vvp/dff.h
The resulting build shows some regressions in the test suite, that
I am still investigating. The patch does not break building, or show
test suite regressions, with gcc-4.3.
This patch fixes fully out of range constant indexed part selects
to just return 'bx. It also adds support for constant undefined
base values which also just return 'bx.
A bug in the bit width calculation when building an unsized, signed
negative integer value was also fixed (-3 needs 3 bits not 2, etc.)
This patch adds the function definitions for ivl_expr_branch and
ivl_expr_nature to the ivl.def file. This is needed to get Cygwin
and MinGW to compile correctly.
Probe the widths of the case statement expressions. The expressions
are self-determined in that context, but the probe is needed to
setup the expression types.
Tran islands are a kinds of island, so seperate the tran handling
from the core island concept. This will allow for creating new
kinds of islands. (Think analog.)
The expressions of a contribution statement are real valued by
definition, but we need to do the width probing anyhow in order
to resolve types and the widths of subexpressions.
The power (**) and shift operators are different from other binary
operators because their expression width calculations rely only on
their left operand, with their right operand self-determined. Get
the handling of these operators out of the PEBinary base class to
prevent confusion.
The power operator is different in that it uses the signed version
if either of it's arguments are signed. This patch fixes the code
generator to do this correctly.
This patch adds the procedural power function %pow/s for signed
values. This has bit based inputs and outputs, but uses the double
pow() function to calculate the value.
This test was way to picky about the widths of the arguments. In real
tests, the arguments may have different widths. This especially matter
when comparing unsized values.
Verilog generate schemes support a special case where conditional
generate schemes that contain only a nested conditional generate
scheme do not create a new scope. Instead, it relies on the nested
generate scheme to generate the scope.
unary expressions that have problems should not assert in the
test_width method. Instead, let the error propagate back and be
handled during expression elaboration. This found a few places
where expression widths/types weren't probed before elaboration.
Signals of width 1 are declared in VHDL as std_logic, as this
is the usual way to represent them. Unfortunately, we cannot
distinguish between
reg [0:0] a;
and
reg a;
This patch avoids trying to slice a std_logic so a[0] is equivalent to a.
This patch removes the CVS ident information from the Makefile.in
files it also puts in the current version 0.9.devel for the default
VERSION definition. This is normally passed down, but a local make
will use the value from the local Makefile. This will eventually be
replaced with a file based version to give us just one place to
reliably modify the version.
Move the header files from includedir/verilog to .../iverilog
because the verilog name is a little too generic. The iverilog-vpi
command should handle the changes.
This patch makes the code generator put the compiler version
information in the vvp output file. It also adds checks in vvp
to verify that this version is compatible with the run time.
I am assuming that a base release 0.9.0, etc. will have a
blank VERSION_TAG. Any change relative to the release will have
a VERSION_TAG.
The disciplines are, from the perspective of the ivl target, collected
into the design. Add functions for the target to scan the disciplines
in the design.
In the process, also clean up the handlng of design constants.
It is ot uncommon for the arguments to logical or to leave stuff
in bit registers 4-7. Allow the lor itself to take advantage of
that to save some %mov instructions.
When padding expressions, pre-allocate the target space and calculate
the sub-expression directly into the target. Then pad from there. This
saves a move into the result space.
This patch adds a -V flag to the runtime to print version information.
It also updates the manual page to document this and makes some minor
changes to the iverilog an iverilog-vpi manual pages.
Users expect that vpi_put_value() will keep a copy of the string
that is passed to it. This patch implements this buy copying the
string and then freeing it after the actual put_value call.
In some cases, it was possible for the NetEConcat expression to
lose track of the repeat expression, causing the output result to
have a broken concatenation expression.
This also adds some internal checks that the concatenation widths
add up properly.
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.
When padding a signal or when creating a local signal the file and
line information should be related to where the new object was
created not the signal value it is being created from.
This patch modifies the NetE* pad_to_width() routines to take a
LineInfo object to set the location to the correct value.
It fixes some set_line() calls to use the correct location.
It fixes ports to not set the file/line information if it is
already defined. Doing this was causing the definition of
signals to become the instantiation instead of the real
module declaration.
Named blocks create scopes, and generated named blocks' scopes can
have signals declared in them. So the elaborate_sig for the generate
scheme needs to call the elaborate_sig for the processes as well as
the obvious gates and tasks/functions.
Fix for pr2224949
The compiler generates a concatenation LPM to zero-pad ports when the
signal widths don't match up. However, when the VHDL generator generated
the input signals to this LPM it incorrectly sized them to be the width
of the result.
The VHDL converter erroneously treated a casez and casex exactly
the same. In reality a casez compares a 'x' value (it is not a
don't care). It also adds support for a full don't care case by
just returning True for the condition.
When the parser detects a signal type conflict, print a more useful
error message. In the process, be more careful with what line number
is actually attributed to the declaration.
In a procedural single bit non-negated reduction (&, | or ^)
we need to translate a 1'bz to a 1'bx. The easiest way to do
that is with two %inv opcodes. This patch modifies the code
generator to do this for this very special case.
This configure option causes the installed commands to have
a suffix string that makes them distinct from other versions
that also have a suffix string. This allows for multiple
installed versions of Icarus Verilog.
Also, move installed C/C++ header files into a subdirectory of
their own under the target include directory, to make clearer
the purpose and source of those files.
Eliminate three "warning: suggest parentheses around assignment used as truth value"
Obviously not needed, but it's easier to add the superfluous parentheses
than remember that these warnings are benign.
If one of the arguments of a comparison expression has a real value, then
the expression with is 1 no matter the width of the other argument. This
means that the arguments may have different widths in this special case.
Patch is from pr2251119, suggested by Martin Whitaker.
This patch moves the checks for automatic variables being passed to
the $monitor or $strobe system tasks from the calltf routine to a
new compiletf routine. It also adds the file name and line number
of an offending call to the error message.
VHDL can't select bits from arbitrary expression so sometimes
translating IVL_EX_SELECT would fail. This is easily fixed by
replacing the select with a shift in this instance (and the
resizing)
The VVP %join function was incorrectly treating the return from a
non-automatic function as a return from an automatic function in
the case that the non-automatic function result was being used as
a parameter to an automatic function. This patch fixes this error.
A simple typo in the rhs of an expression would crash the compiler.
Example:
module crash3;
reg clk;
integer cnt1=0;
always @(posedge clk) begin
cnt1 <= (cnt==81) ? 0 : (cnt1+1);
end
endmodule
This patch addresses a number of issues:
Rewrote the $test$plusargs and $value$plusargs routines to have
better error/warning messages, to support runtime strings, to
correctly load bit based values (truncating, padding, negative
value), added support for the real formats using strtod() and
added "x/X" as an alias for "h/H" to match the other part of
Icarus.
Rewrite the vpip_{bin,oct,hex}_str_to_vec4 routines to ignore
embedded "_" characters. Add support for a negative value and
set the entire value to 'bx if an invalid digit is found. A
warning is printed for this case.
Rewrite vpip_dec_str_to_vec4 to ignore embedded "_" characters,
to support a single "x" or "z" constant and to return 'bx if an
invalid digit is found. A warning is printed for this case.
It simplifies the system task/functions error/warning messages.
It removes the signed flag for the bin and dec string conversions.
This was not being used (was always false) and the new negative
value support makes this obsolete.
Add support for a real variable to handle Bin, Oct, Dec and Hex
strings. They are converted into a vvp_vector4_t which is then
converted to a real value.
Add support for setting a bit based value using a real value.
Removed an unneeded rfp signal in vpip_make_reg()
make_safe_name now makes sure a VHDL signal is never given a
name that conflicts with any reserved words. If it does, we
just prepend VL_.
(This code was already present, but the full list of reserved
words wasn't.)
In the vvp code generator, when zero/sign extending a sub-expression,
the sub-expression is first evaluated and stored in one location in
the thread vector store, then is copied and extended into a second
location. The storage used for the initial sub-expression evaluation
is never deallocated.
The NetEBAdd::eval_tree method is able to use the associative property
of addition to reduce some constants, but it is picky about widths.
Make it a little bit more resilient to expression widths.
Even though we cannot immediately give a width for a concatenation
that has a repeat expression (the expression must be evaluated first)
we still must scan the test_width of the arguments so that they can
resolve their types.
This patch adds a number of compile and run-time checks for illegal
uses of variables declared in automatic tasks and functions. It
also adds a check for event expressions in automatic tasks that use
features not yet supported in VVP.
In the ivl_target API, the IVL_EX_BACCESS expression type gets some meat,
specifically references to the branch it accesses and the the nature to
be accessed on that branch.
This includes enough API to get the branch nexus bits and signals
and show them in the dump. This also includes creating the reference
ground for branch access functions that use the implicit ground.
This patch fixes a number of problems related to the divide and
modulus operators.
The net version (CA) of modulus did not support a signed version.
Division or modulus of a value wider than the machine word did
not correctly check for division by zero and return 'bx.
Fixed a problem in procedural modulus. The sign of the result is
only dependent on the L-value.
Division or modulus of a signed value that was the same width as
the machine word was creating an incorrect sign mask.
Division of a signed value that would fit into a single machine
word was not checking for division by zero.
Division or modulus of a wide value was always being done as
unsigned.
Added a negative operator for vvp_vector2_t. This made
implementing the signed wide division and modulus easier.
This patch fixes a minor memory leak in ivlpp and releases all
dynamically allocated memory before the program exits. Other than
the dynamically allocated push state buffer in flex, ivlpp has no
valgrind memory errors or warnings.
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.
The natures of disciplines were already available, this just brings
the information forward to the ivl_target.h API and exposes them via
access functions.
The goal is to completely remove the svector class because the standard
vector class works perfectly well. This removes the uses in the Module.h
header file.
Signals may have VMA disciplines attached. Make the attached discipline
visible through the ivl_target.h API. Also, re-arrange the internal
handling of the discipline structure so that we can expose disciplines
through the ivl_target C API without creating new structures. The
t-dll-api implementations of the discipline access functions can look
at the elaborated discipline structure directly. This is possible since
the discipline parse and elaboration are very simple.
Support arrays of realtime variable arrays and net arrays. This
involved a simple fix to the ivl core parser, proper support in
the code generator, and rework the runtime support in vvp.
Continue cleaning up shadowed variables, flagged by turning on -Wshadow.
No intended change in functionality. This patch set covers the tgt-vhdl
directory, and was tested by Nick.
This patch fixes some problems found when trying to dump words
from a real wire array. There are still a few more things that
look suspicious and need testing.
This patch splits any VVP net functor that needs to access both
statically and automatically allocated state into two sub-classes,
one for handling operations on statically allocated state, the
other for handling operations on automatically allocated state.
This undoes the increase in run-time memory use introduced when
automatic task/function support was first introduced.
This patch also fixes various issues with event handling in automatic
scopes. Event expressions in automatic scopes may now reference either
statically or automatically allocated variables or arrays, or part
selects or word selects thereof. More complex expressions (e.g.
containing arithmetic or logical operators, function calls, etc.) are
not currently supported.
This patch introduces some error checking for language constructs
that may not reference automatically allocated variables. Further
error checking will follow in a subsequent patch.
The arguments of logical and/or are self determined, and the width is
fixed as 1 bit. Account for this special behavior by creating the
PEBLogic class.
The comparison operator operands are self determined, but are forced
to be the width of the wider operand. This means that the operands must
be evaluated with their widths truncated. In spite of all this, note
that comparisons expression results are 1 bit wide.
The operands of divide need to be at least the width of the expression
when calculating a constant divide. The only matters for the special
case where the result is x, because the verinum implementation of
divide will get the result width from the left expression width.
Now that NetNet objects in NetScopes are kept in a map, remove the
linked list for scanning them. This improves the lookup process from
an O(e**N) process to more like O(log(N)). This matters for very
large designs.
Get at least basic elaboration of analog processes and contribution
statements. Bring the statements and analog statements together and
net future elaboration work sort out which statements are valid in
a given context. This makes sense because there really is a lot of
syntactic overlap, and analog behavioral code is processed somewhat
sequentially.
Put together the infrastructure for elaborating analog statements,
including create the NetAnalogTop objects that hold analog statements
and are in turn held by the design.
While doing this, clean up the various unique initial/always enumerations
to use the ivl_process_type_t type.
The optimization that allowed a mux that had one input always
connected to high-Z produces code that is actually slower than
the original mux, so for now we are removing that optimization.

No intended change in functionality. Patch looks right, and is tested
to compile and run on my machine. No regressions in test suite.
The bufif devices do not correctly propagate the Z value as
required by the standard. The MOS devices do propagate a Z
value, but they do not correctly handle the case where both
inputs are Z and the select is undefined/Z. The standard
specifies that this should be X, but we produce Z. The full
MUX and %blend operator also function this way, so Icarus
may not match the standard, but it is consistent. I would
also argue that the standard is incorrect. If both inputs
are Z then the output should be Z no matter what select is.
The condition expression needs its width tested, even if the width
is not used. Also clean up some handling of widths/types for other
expression types.
This fixes the sign calculation for port padding. It also reports if
the padding will be signed or not in the warning message. The inout
calculation may not be correct. It requires both the signal and the
port to be signed, but inout is not currently padded anyway.
If a part select (either a constant or constant indexed part select)
of a L-value is fully outside the signal the part select will be
omitted after printing a warning. If a part select straddles the
upper portion of a signal a warning will be printed. The run time
will use only the appropriate part of the select. Straddling the
lower part of the signal is not currently supported and a message
is printed for this case.
The right-operand of shift expressions is self-determined, but we still
need to run a test_width to get the PExpr decorated with types and
expression widths.
A casex statement cannot be directly translated to a VHDL case
statement as VHDL does not treat the don't-care bit as special.
The solution here is to generate an if statement from the casex
which compares only the non-don't-care bit positions.
The l-value doesn't really constrain the size of unsized expressions
because there are possible sub-expressions that may pull high bits
down to the low bits. (Divide, for example.)
It is possible, via the use of the $signed() function, for concatenation
expressions to be signed. Make sure the evaluated constant had the
proper sign by checking explicitly.
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 modifies the code that finds and combines similar events
such that if similar events are found in both static and automatic
scopes, the retained event will be in a static scope. This is a
performance enhancement, as VVP has more run-time overhead when
handling events declared in an automatic scope.
This code was likely never checked properly since it makes no
sense to copy the expression from the new temporary system
function. You must copy the value from the current function.
Even on 64 bit machines immediate values should be limited to
32 bits so that the a.out file will run correctly on a 32 bit
machine. This patch fixes a number of places where the code
generator was not checking for/observing this.
The signedness of comparison expressions is typically unsigned, even if
the comparison to be performed is signed. The comparison (and particularly
the expr_synth of the comparison) needs to account for this explicitly.
If either of the operands of a ternary expression are unsigned, then
both are treated as unsigned. It works just like a binary expression
in that regard.
It is up to the elaborator to sign-extend the inputs if the multiply
is signed in the Verilog source. The run time always processes the
multiply as unsigned.
The results of comparisons are unsigned, but the arguments may be signed
and the calculation performed may be signed. Handle the padding properly
for comparisons so that the math is properly signed.
When doing lossless addition to an unsized constant, we make the size
be width of an integer, only to be consistent with other tools. In fact,
don't go overboard if we don't have to.
Later passes need the intermediate results for width and size so that
some special cases, were self-determined arguments occur, can be
processed properly during elaboration. This can be especially tricky
and interesting for ternary expressions.
Start 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. YMMV.
This patch fixes the expression width calculation for a multiply
operation with an unsized operation. The expression width needs
to be at least the minimum of the maximum multiply result width
and the width of an integer.
Currently, a bitwise boolean operator will cause the expression
width to be reduced to the size of the result. This can give
rise to incorrect results. This patch changes the behaviour to
take into account the required precision for calculating the
two operands.
This patch removes all the checks for constant expressions performed
during the parsing phase, as these checks are (mostly) repeated during
elaboration. It adds the missing check in the elaboration phase (the
RHS of a register initialisation), and improves the error reporting
and error recovery in other checks.
This patch fixes pr2132552, which was caused by a fault in the parser
constant expression checking.
Emitting a VHDL expression like Resize("01", 32) is ambiguous
between interpreting "01" as a Signed or an Unsigned. There's
no point actually outputting this as we can sign-extend the
constant value in the code generator, which is what this
patch does.
In assignments, the expression width may be defined by the width of
operands, and not that of the l-value. Choose whichever is creater and
set (or pad) the expression to that width.
Multiply of any expression with constant 0 will always return zero.
We can handle this early, during elaboration, and save a lot of code
downstream the trouble.
Also, while we are at it, fix up test_width to re-test the left
expression width if the right expression width is unsized. This allows
for the left expression code to adapt to the unsized-ness of the
expression context.
This patch pads inputs and output ports correctly when the port
and the port expression have different widths. It does not fix
inout ports.
It also sets the file and line number information in the unsigned
pad_to_width() routine.
This patch pushes the evaluation of constant system functions into
normal elaboration vs doing them in the preliminary parameter
elaboration.
It also fixes the compiler version of clog2 to return integer_width
vs a fixed 32 bits.
There are cases where the r-value doesn't pad itself to the width
that is requested by the call to elaborate_expr. This impacts the
elaboration of PGAssign. Pad/sign extend as appropreate.
The arguments to bitwise operators are padded if *either* of the operands
is unsigned. This is according to the sign/unsigned expression rules
of Verilog, and also matches the behavior of the "Big-3."
The addition of UINT_MAX in netlist.cc requires #include <climits> when compiling with gcc-4.3.2.
I also noticed that commit 8704e3e used c style includes in c++ sources contrary to the style used in the rest of the c++ code and fixed those.
In the transition to the new expression code we forgot how to
handle the logical not (!) of a real value. This patch adds a
more appropriate error message until we get this reimplemented.
MinGW uses the GetProcAddress() function to find the address of
the vlog_startup_routines() procedure in a .vpi file. This routine
requires that the leading underscore be omitted from the name even
though the underlying routine really has one.
alloc_instance for real values was just passing a new double
to be added to the context items. The new constructor does
not set the default value so we need to do that manually.
Simple error setting the expression width of the FALSE clause of a
ternary expression when the expression is short cuirted to false.
Fix a simple error where the type of a system function is not returned
through the test_width function.
The arguments to user defined functions are self-determined. And if
the result is real valued, we can call them lossless self-determined.
Treat these arguments like r-value elaboration for assignments.
Also clean up the binary divide elaboration a little bit.
Also, floating point literals are unsized with width==1.
When a multiply expression is IVL_VT_REAL, then the default width is
the width of the operands, and not the sum of the operands. In fact, it
should turn out to be 1.
Also, the width of the multiply expression when we get to the ivl_target
API, need not be the sum of the widths of its arguments. In fact, if the
arguments are signed, that would be completely wrong. So adjust the
stub target to properly test this constraint.
Widths of real values are always 1. When paired with vectorable types
in expressions, the vectorable type is processed as losslessly self-
determined. ("unsized" in the test_width methods.)
Don't force the expression with to be different from the l-value if the
l-value is the immediate destination. This saves the effort of handling
overly wide constant values in simple cases.
Also, in determined contexts, signed unary minus does not need to pad the
width of the expression.
the PGAssign elaborate method used the test_width to get the width
of the r-value expression. This should be completely sufficient to
get the width of the expression, so always use a defined width to
elaborate the expression.
When ternary expressions are self-determined, use the test_width
method to get a proper reading of the expression width. Also improve
the test_width method to handle unsized operands.
This patch adds non-blocking event control for array words.
It also fixes a problem where the word used to put the
calculated delay for a non-blocking array assignment was
not being released. It also fixes the non-blocking array
assignments to correctly handle off the end/beginning part
selects.
Currently, parameters and localparams declared in tasks, functions,
generate blocks, and named blocks are placed in the parent module
scope. Event declarations in these scopes are not permitted (a
syntax error is reported). This patch corrects this behaviour, so
that all the above declarations are accepted and are placed in the
scope in which they are declared.
Note that the IEEE standard does not permit parameter declarations
in generate blocks. This patch causes the parser to reject such
declarations.
Since some event control assignments can be skipped we need an
event control clear so that future %evctl statements do not fail
their assert. This patch adds %evctl/c and uses it in the compiler
as appropriate to keep the event control information in sync.
This patch adds full event control for vectors and parts of a
vector. It also fixes the other non-blocking part select code
to correctly handle a negative offset ([1:-2] of a [4:0] will
have an offset of -2).
When evaluating an expression into an index register bit 4 is used
to determine if the expression had any X/Z bits. In the case of a
constant immediate value this can not happen so make sure the bit
is cleared.
We need consistent pointer output (%p) and under MinGW we need to
us _snprintf instead of snprintf to get this. The recent event
control addition missed this. This has been reported to the MinGW
developers and they are working on a solution.
The previous patch (commit 8b0ca902a6)
dealing with the possibilities of (unsigned long) and (vvp_time64_t)
being either the same or different managed to redefine UL_AND_TIME64_DIFF
in the 64-bit case. This does, of course, trigger a compiler warning.
That warning is repeated on every .cc file with a #include "config.h",
which is to say, just about every file.
This patch inverts the sense of the preprocessor conditional, calling
it UL_AND_TIME64_SAME. No more warnings!
It takes a carefully crafted source file to cause elabortion to make
an arrayed multiple-output gate that is not vectorized into a single
wide gate. But that special case does need to be handled.
While the standard is not completely clear about this, we are making
it an error for a `timescale directive to be inside a (macro)module
definition. This means that all modules and any statements contained
within have a single well defined time unit and precision.
Logic gates usually have one output and several inputs, but a few
have multiple outputs and one input. Since the NetNode objects have
only a single output, handle the case by creating multiple NetNode
objects, one for each output.
A variable that is used to set the delay of a .delay statement
must be scaled to match the local units and for real values
rounded using the precision. This value is then converted to
the simulation precision.
Signals of a nexus must have types that exactly match, but the drivers
of a signal nexus have slightly more subtle rules for the case where
the signal is IVL_VT_LOGIC. Express those rules in the function
check_signal_drive_type, and use it to check the type of constants
driving a signal.
Remove redundant pointer to the containing NetPins object by keeping
the pointer only in the first Link (pin 0) of an array of links. In
this link, replace the pin number with the NetPins pointer, and set
a pins_zero_ flag to indicate that this has happened. This way, only
the first pin in a Link array will have the pointer to the NetPins
that contains the array, and the pointer takes up practically no space
at all.
This class was old, and its original design pulled literally from
the LPM reference. But of nine pins declared, only 4 were used.
Remove all the excess junk and clean up the designed dump handling
of the device.
The r-value expression takes on at least the width of the l-value. If
there is a sized width greater then the l-value width, take that on
instead. But if the r-value is unsized, there are unsized sub-expressions
that cause the expression as a whole to be unlimited width, so elaborate
and evalulate the r-value as lossless.
The true and false expression clauses must have compatible types,
which are not necesarily identical. In particular, VT_BOOL and
VT_LOGIC are compatible for the purposes of ternary arguments. The
test in NetETernary::synthesize was incorrect.
In the process, fix the type handling of NetConst objects to allow
for IVL_VT_BOOL constants. This is information that the downstream
may find useful, so should be handled correctly.
It's processed once by AC_OUTPUT in configure.in and then again
by AC_OUTPUT in tgt-vhdl/configure.in. This is a bug from when I
first started on the VHDL target, and was basing it on the tgt-vvp
code. The call to configure in the tgt-vhdl directory is not
actually necessary either, since it doesn't do any checks not
performed elsewhere, so that should proably be removed later.
This patch pushes the non-blocking event control information to
the code generator. It adds the %evctl statements that are used
to put the event control information into the special thread
event control registers. The signed version (%evctl/s) required
the implementation of %ix/getv/s to load a signed value into
an index register. It then adds %assign/wr/e event control based
non-blocking assignment for real values. It also fixes the other
non-blocking real assignments to use Transport instead of inertial
delays.
The exponentiation operator in VHDL is not defined for numeric_std
types. We can get around this by converting the operands to integers,
performing the operation, then converting the result back to the
original type. This will work OK in simulation but certainly will not
synthesise unless the operands are constant.
However, even this does not work quite correctly. The Integer type in
VHDL is signed and usually only 32 bits, therefore any result larger
than this will overflow and raise an exception. I can't see a way
around this at the moment.
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.
Target selection is done by the DLL target code generator, so there
is no value having a layer of target selection ahead of it. Remove
all that redundant code and simplify the target config files to reflect
this.
It is possible for signe-extend to have a delay attached to it. (Same
for repeat.) Handle it like other LPM devices, by stuffing a .delay
device into the output path of the device, if appropriate.
Generate scopes were previously ignored, and this would cause a segfault
later on. This patch gives an error whenever it encounters a generate
scope. This should be removed once generate statements are implemented.
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.
The generate block is a placeholder for the generate items, and it
is the items themselves that can specify the name of the generate
block that is created.
Add "include" to fix error with abort() in dup_expr.cc
Add "include" to AStatement.h so usage of struct PExpr works
Get rid of eval_tree.cc:577: warning: suggest parentheses around comparison in operand of ^
The right shift of vvp_vector2_t needs to
account for and mask off shifted bits. Otherwise
there will be unexpected results after
a vvp_vector2_t::trim method.
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.
If the argument to $clog2() is unsized constant, then trim it to the
smallest representation that doesn't lose the sign, then do the $clog2
on that.
Also, use integer_width instead of 32 for the minimum $clog2() result
for a negative value.
If the argument to $clog2() is unsized constant, then trim it to the
smallest representation that doesn't lose the sign, then do the $clog2
on that.
Also, use integer_width instead of 32 for the minimum $clog2() result
for a negative value.
This patch moves the always zero or possibly zero delay checks
to a point after the circuit is full elaborated. Before it
could try to check tasks that had not already been evaluated
resulting in a crash.
When looking for a delay_type() in a block stop when we have a
DEFINITE_DELAY. Doing this could reduce the number of statements
that need to be checked.
Previously only signedness was only corrected for the
result. This patch ensures the VHDL operands have the
same signedness as their Verilog counterparts.
This fixes a few of the signedX tests.
Assume that anything that is strength aware already handles a
recv_vec8_pv and make the default function convert the bits
to a vec4 and then call recv_vec4_pv with this new value.
It is legal for a task to have no definition. In that case, the
delay_type calculations (used to detect infinite loops) can assume
that an empty definition is a no-op and return NO_DELAY.
Be more sophisticated with the code generated for constant values.
When values are large, use an optimal mix of %movi and %mov
instructions to get the desired value, no matter what the content.
This splits up the monolithic and confusing vhdl_expr::cast function into
several smaller to_XXX functions which each generate code to cast an
expression to type XXX. This makes it much easier to understand and maintain.
In continuous assignment, the width of the expression needs to come
from the expression itself, and not just from the width of the l-value.
Use the PExpr::test_width method to get the width of the expression
to pass to the elaborate.
the sub_net_from function is used by the ::synthesize method of the
NetEUnary class to make the expression 0-N. By making that function
handle a real-valued net, the NetEUnary suddenly supports real-valued
nets, and this probably helps in other places as well.
When the condition expression of a ternary is constant 1 or 0, we can
short-circuit the elaboration by only processing the clause (true or
false) that we need. This saves compile time and execution time.
This patch adds an error message for the standard system
tasks and functions that are not currently implemented.
These are currently $fmonitor*, $ferror, $fread, the
queue and PLA tasks.
It is possible for the left operand of a left shift to be not known
early during elaborate expression. In that case, make a punt expression
and expect it to be resolved later.
GCC 4.3 has tightened up header dependencies so that
`strcmp' is no longer declared if <cstdlib> is included
(which it was in prior versions). This causes the changes
in 5e512e6570 to fail to
build with 4.3.
This patch includes <cstring> in the files that are failing.
The expr:::synthesize methods need not deal with saturating left or
right shifts if they are dealt with early, in elaborate_expr methods.
So the elaborate_expr for shift takes on much more responsibility.
Mostly this ensures that a recursive call to a function
is made with the correct types (this may involve generating
code to cast expressions to the correct type).
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 $clog2 system function. It also makes this
function work as a constant function. The runtime version still
needs to be updated to use an integer based version instead of
the current double based method. The double method suffers from
rounding errors.
This patch adds support for vpiScaledRealTime and vpiSuppressTime
to VPI callbacks. It also fixes a bug where the callback data
object was not being copied correctly and adds support for
vpiSuppressVal. This requires adding vpiSuppressVal to a few
other routines. It adds the ability for a callback to return
more than vpiScalarVal (all values supported by the
vpip_vec4_get_value() procedure). It also fixes a bug where
vpip_vec4_get_value() would incorrectly return vpiZ for a BIT4_X
scalar value. It also comments the potentially dangerous
vpiScalarVal calculation in the vvp_fun_signal::get_value()
procedure.
Since NetExpr::synthesize methods were rarely used, then had a lot
of bugs. Now that continuous assign uses these methods, these bugs
must be fixed.
Binary and Unary minus properly pad/extens its arguments,
Case compare generates correct code,
Divide properly takes on signed flag,
Signed right shift sign-extends its argument to prevent loss of sign bits
and uses the NetSignExtend instead of simple padding,
Use the correct target node for reduction NAND,
Properly handle constant arguments of NetESelect
Handle some exressions that were not handled before, include abs()
and POW.
In signed contextx, the right shift and unary minus expressions need
to be sign extended before they operate, otherwise there may be bad
results in the high bits in the greater context.
This patch causes a thread that is created to evaluate a function
to be executed immediately. The parent thread is resumed when the
function thread terminates.
Because Icarus tries to elaborate as much as it can even after
an error has occurred we need to check for these errors during
elaboration. This patch prevent an undefined identifier from
crashing the compiler.
When the continuous assignment is signed, then sign-extend the r-value
in the few cases where the expression is stubbornly smaller then the
desired width.
When multiply is done in native words, the conversion to words from the
vp_vector4_t vectors must be done signed. This only matters if the
input operands are different sizes (and themselves signed) but will
not hurt even if we want an unsigned result.
Logical (in)equality needs to look at all the bits of both operands,
and cannot short circuit the test unless defined bits differ. If there
are undefined bits, the equality is undefined at that point, but return
x only if there are not other bits that make the results clearly
unequal.
When nets are assigned directly to a net, we need to create a driver
to carry the strength. Normally, the implied drive of a continuous
assignment is carried by whatever gate the r-value expression ends
with, but with simble net-to-net assignment, there is no net so we
need to install a BUFZ to carry the assignment.
This is caused by using a hierarchical reference (which can't
be translated to VHDL). The result of get_decl is NULL since
the signal has been declared in a different VHDL architecture.
Adding the assert is cleaner than having it segfault, for the
moment, until a nicer error message can be added.
convert the continuous assign elaboration to use elaborate_expr
and synthesize methods instead of the elaborate_net methods of
PExpr. This exposes problems with the synthesize methods, but it
is a better way to do it.
Previously this was handled by creating an internal
signal that was connected to the output and could also
be read inside the entity. The correct solution is to
make the output `buffer' rather than `out'. However, this
does not work in the case when an output is connected to
an output of a child entity, and that values is read
in the parent. In this case *both* the outputs of the child
and the parent need to be made `buffer'.
Combinatorial UDPs will be implemented with a `with ... select'
statemetnt. However the input to this must be "locally static".
This patch joins the inputs into a vector which can be used as
the select expression.
In preparation for using the synthesize method to replace the
elaborate_net method of PExpr, rework the interface to the
synthesize() method. This changes no fnctionality, but does set
up the infrastructure for the next step.
When elaborating a parameter expression fails we need to set the
expression to 0 since it has already been partially allocated.
Doing this allows us to not evaluate the dummy expression later.
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 in the VVP code generator that causes syntactically
incorrect code to be generated if an event expression contains a memory or
array port.
The list of defparams in the pform module definitions (in class Module)
should not be consumed when they are used. The module may be instantiated
moltiple times, so consuming the defparams during elaboration will cause
subsequent instantiations to not have the defparams. That's wrong.
...with the correct behavior. It would be possible to
just translate it as a regular VHDL case statement (as
it was before this patch). But the behavior is not
correct as VHDL only does the equivalent of case-equality
in case statements and this can be confusing when debugging
the output. An alternative might be to emit a warning rather
than an error.
When driving an input port to a module, watch out for the case where
the net is also driven within the instance. If this is the case, take
pains to make sure what goes on in the instance doesn't leak out
through the input port. Add a BUFZ (continuous assignment) to isolate
the context from internal driving.
The old code returns a vpiIntVal for $fscanf("%d") format strings. This
limits the maximum input range arbitrarily to 32 bit.
This patch implements %d parsing similiar to %b and %x.
'?' and 'X' chars are not accepted for %d format.
If the final statement in a process is a non-blocking
assignment then there is no point adding a `wait for 0ns'
after it since it will be immediately followed by another
wait. This case is suprisingly common, so this patch helps
generate much cleaner output without breaking the cases
where the 0ns wait is actually required (e.g. to implement
non-blocking assignment properly).
The NetBranch object is connected, but not like an object, so the
NetPins object base class is factored out from NetObj to handle the
connectivity, and the NetBranch class uses the NetPins to connect a
branch.
Also, account for the fact that nets with a discipline are by default
real-valued.
This patch adds a forward declaration for every user funciton.
This fixes VHDL compile problems if a function calls another
before it has been declared.
Multiple lvals are implemented by first assigning the complete
RHS to a temporary, and then assigning each lval in turn as
bit-selects of the temporary
Previously the code generator expanded ternary assignments to
and `if' statement. This patch replaces that with a single assignment
and a call to a Ternary_* support function. This will make it
much easier to support multiple lvals later.
The double to vvp_vector4_t constructor was not using the correct
declaration for the bit words. This worked as long as unsigned and
unsigned long were the same size (usually).
Detect function call expressions that turn out to be calls to the
access function of a nature. Elaborate the access function and stub
the emit code. This gets the access function just short of the code
generator.
The preprocessor was incorrectly setting the line when starting
an include file to the line it was called from instead of 1.
This would give incorrect line numbers for errors/warnings in
the included file.
The new real to int conversion was incorrectly setting the
bits for minus infinity to all ones. This is incorrect in a
two's complement encoding where the largest negative number
would be a leading 1 followed by an infinite number of zeros.
This patch updates the %cvt/vr command to use the new double to vector
constructor. This allows the resulting bit pattern to be larger than
a long. The old method was producing incorrect results without a
warning for large bit values.
This patch makes .part/pv strength aware, resolv vec8_pv
aware. vvp_net_fun_t adds vec8_pv as a virtual function
with an appropriate error default. vvp_fun_signal should
full support vec8_pv (not tested and may not be needed).
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.
Whilst adding `wait until ...' at the end of every
process is a valid translation of the input, it is not
actually synthesisable in at least one commercial
synthesiser (XST). According to the XST manual the
correct template is to use `wait until ...' at the
start of sequential processes and `wait on ...'
(equivalent to `wait until ...' with 'Event on all
the signals) at the end of combinatorial processes.
This patch implements that.
Initial processes set a magic flag in the code generator
which allows it to push constant assignments into the
VHDL signal initialisation and omit the assignment.
However, it should only do this if the signal has not
already been read (otherwise the previous read would
not get the undefined value as expected)
If the Verilog source contained a continuous assignment
of a constant to an output, it would not be present in
the VHDL output. This patch generates a VHDL continous
assignment in these cases.
If output P of A is connected to output Q of B (and A is
instantiated inside B) then VHDL does not allow B to read
the value of Q (also P), but Verilog does. To get around
this the output Q is mapped to P_Sig which is then connected
to P, this allows B to read the value of P/Q via P_Sig.
Previously the code generator tried to infer the VHDL types. Now it
takes a much more dumb approach and forces the VHDL type to be
the same as the ivl type (derived from ivl_expr_signed and
ivl_expr_width) in the expression tree. This works much better :-)
The signed/unsigned-ness of an expression needs to be
preserved over any call to Resize. Also add a sanity
check to make sure non-vector types are not resized.
Verilog_Case_Ex is used as a temporary to store the result of
any non-static case expression. This fixes a bug where it would
be declared multiple times if there were multiple case statements
in a block.
When generate schems and instance arrays are nested, it takes
multiple iterations of elaborate scope, defparams and evaluate
parameters before everything is worked out. Rework the work item
processing so that the loop elaborates scopes and runs defparams
in phases. The phases are needed so that we can tell when the
remaining defparams are orphaned.
Modules mentioned within generate schemes are not candidates for
defaults guesses at root modules. They are, obviously, used within
the generate schem.
We must run generate schemes after running defparams because the
defparams may define the results of the generate schemes. So put
the generate schemes for a module scope into elaborator work items.
The l-value of a defparam assignment is a hierarchical name that may
include array selects to select scopes from module arrays. Therefore
it makes no sense to store parsed defparams in a map. Instead, they
should go into an ordered list. This also maked more sense because later
defparams *may* have the same name as a previous defparam, and will
override the previous defparam. So replace the map of parsed defparams
with a list of parsed defparams.
Also, as soon as the defparam expression is elaborated, the list entry
is no longer needed, so delete it. Save memory.
It is possible for defparams to not find their target the first time
around, because the elaboration of the target scope is not yet done.
So retry the defparams once for each scope by putting it on a work
item in the elaborator_work_items list.
The file and line number information needs to be copied when
doing a macro expansion. This prevents a macro that expands to
an `ifdef of other construct that needs to push the stack
from core dumping.
When we detect that a module instance is an array of instances, delay
the elaboration of the array until after the first defparam processing
is complete. This allows for defparam statements to control the
instantiation of module instance arrays.
Putting scope elaboration into work queue items allows for handling
more complex processing order. The elaboration_work_list queue drives
the processing of elaborate_scope and parameter evaluation.
This patch adds .cast/int and updates .cast/real to act as a local
(temporary) net and to support either a signed or unsigned input.
The vvp_vector4_t class not can convert an arbitrarily sized double
to a vector value. This removes the restriction of lround().
Also document the new statements.
Within generate schemes it is possible to have nested scopes, even
more liberally then outside generate blocks. So see to it that the
scopes properly stack with the generate blocks, and that wires and
behaviors are put in the right scopes.
Generating task/function definitions involves getting the functions
to put themselves into the generate scheme instead of the module,
and getting elaboration to elaborate those definitions in the
generate scheme.
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.
Named begin/end blocks burried within generate schemes need to be
elaborated. Handle this by remembering to elaborate_scope on the
statements within the generate scheme.
In the process, clean up/regularize some of the member names and
methods.
This handles the general case of a non-real operand to a real-valued
division. This can turn up if only 1 operand of a divide is real. In
this case the division as a whole is real and the other operand must
be cast to real.
This method creates an extra node, but it should be a very compact
node and this node does no evaluation tricks so in the run time should
be no more expensive then folding the cast into the .arith/div.r itself.
This patch adds checks that $fopen is only called with a valid
mode argument. It also checks that the file name for $fopen{a,r,w}?
is a valid looking file name (all characters satisfy isprint()).
The later should prevent creating weird file names because of
Verilog bugs.
This patch changes the base oct to string converter to correctly
pad the top digit. x or xx should display as a single lower case
x when they are located in the top bits. Before these were being
interpreted as 00x or 0xx and displayed X. Also modified the hex
conversion to use this same scheme instead of a loop.
First, handle the trivial (but possibly common) resolution cases in
inlined code, and only call the complete function for the complicated
cases. Then clean up the complex function for readability, and account
for the constraints that the front-end function established.
Arrays of vvp_vector4_t values redundantly store some fields in every
word. Create a special type that stores vvp_vector4_t values in a form
that does not duplicate the width of all the items. This can save a lot
of space when big memories are simulated.
The schedule_assign_plucked_vector is a better way to implement the
schedule_assign_vector, or at least no worse, so remove the now
redundent schedule_assign_vector.
It is legal (though worthy of a warning, I think) for the part select
of an l-value to me out of bounds, so replace the error message with
a warning, and generate the appropriate code. In the process, clean
up some of the code for signal l-values to divide out the various kinds
of processing that can be done. This cleans things up a bit.
This is a major rework on the sys_fileio routines. They now have
improved compiletf routines and the calltf routines are now
standardized. Along the way a few bug were fixed as well. Some
updates to other vpi files as well.
I changed the order of the $fputc() arguments to match C and the
rest of the system functions like it ($fungetc, etc.). I recently
fixed $fungetc() so I'm assuming the $fputc() needs the same fix.
It's an Icarus specific function.
The load-and-add for vectors %load/vp0/s can be combined with the
load-and-add for array words, and the %load/avp0/s added to round
out the combinations. This can make for fewer instructions when
words are padded in arithmetic expressions.
The load-and-add for vectors %load/vp0/s can be combined with the
load-and-add for array words, and the %load/avp0/s added to round
out the combinations. This can make for fewer instructions when
words are padded in arithmetic expressions.
The functor_ref_lookup() function fills its argument in with the
vvp_net_t* pointer that matches the var name, so there is no need
to create the vvp_net_t object before then.
The vpiIndex is really just a different view into the same object,
so implement the trickery needed to support a vpiIndex with the
absolute minimum memory cost.
The %load/vp0 instruction adds a signed value to the signal value being
loaded, but it doesn't allow for a signed source vector. Add the
%load/vp0/s instruction that pads the loaded vector, and add the code
generator details to properly use it.
The vvp_net_fun_t objects, and derived objects, are small, and are
created in large quantities. Tightly pack them into permanently
allocated space in order to save on system allocation overhead, and
thus save overall on memory.
Actually, the immediate value handling is a little chaotic and should
be cleaned up. This patch opens the door for allowing signed immediate
values, and uses them in a few places where they are explicitly handled.
We must go through the opcodes that can take immediate values and make
explicit whether they are signed/unsigned/etc, and what their size
limits are.
Part select of an entire signal returns just the NetESignal itself,
but since part selects are always unsigned, even if the selected
signal is signed, we need to cast the NetESignal to unsigned first.
The part select of a vector is converted by the compiler during
elaboration to a 0-based canonical address. But since it is legal
to address bits below the LSB, the canonical address can be negative.
So make the part select base for selecting from signals work with
signed arithmetic and make the code generator generate negative
indices when needed.
Scheduler cells are small objects that come and go in great quantities.
Even though they are allocated and deallocated a lot, they tend to a
steady state quantity, so put together a heap that is unique for each
cell type.
This heap actually saves memory overall because cells are allocated in
chunks, thus eliminating allocator overhead, and they are pulled/pushed
from/to a heap very quickly so that what overhead remains is slight and
bounded.
The vvp_net_t objects are never deleted, so overload the new operator
to do a more space efficient permanent allocation.
The %assign/v instruction copied the vvp_vector4_t object needlessly
on its way to the scheduler. Eliminate that duplication.(cherry picked from commit d0f303463d)
The vvp_vector8_t constructor and destructor involve memory allocation
so it is best to pass these objects by reference as much as possible.
Also have the islands take more care not to perform resolution if the
inputs aren't really different.
NOTE: This is a port of commit 2f4e5bf5b6
from the "performance" branch, without the resolver scheduling changes.
This was causing test suite variances with pr1820472.v. It looks like
there might be a race in that program anyhow, but for now leave out the
resolver scheduling changes so that the rest of this commit can go in.
The __vpiPV objects express themselves as vpiPartSelect objects.
Add support for value change callbacks by attaching the callback
to the signal that we part select from.
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.
The %load/v instruction was doing some spurious resizes of the vector
that comes from the signal. Eliminate those resizes that can be
removed, and optimize some that remain.
When parameters are replaced, the expression that is replaced is deleted
so make sure the pointer in the map is properly updated. Also, make sure
the defparam expression itself is not deleted because it is used to
print messages, such as design dumps.
