+Version Release Process
+=======================
+
+This section documents the process to release a new version. This is not
+intended to be run by other than the primary repository admins.
+
+#. If activity requires, announce release pending as GitHub issue.
+#. Check all test suites pass:
+
+   - rtlmeter (or wait until overnight cron passes).
+   - sv-tests (run manually or wait a few days and check proper version was
+     tested).
+   - uvm (currently requires private accellera access).
+   - verilator-ext-tests: ``make pull && make clean && make test``
+
+#. Check documentation:
+
+   - ``nodist/log_changes # and update Changes``
+   - ``make spelling # and check warnings``
+   - ``make docs # and check warnings``
+
+#. Prepare release:
+
+   - edit ``Changes`` to update version banner.
+   - edit ``configure.ac`` to change version number and "devel" to proper
+     ISO-format date.
+   - edit ``CMakeLists.txt`` version number.
+
+#. Test and release:
+
+   - ``git commit -am "Version bump"``
+   - ``make distclean && autoconf && ./configure && make test``
+   - ``make maintainer-dist``
+
+#. Wait for GitHub CI build actions to pass.
+#. File announcement issue at verilator-announce, pasting in ``Changes``
+   information.
+#. Devel release:
+
+   - edit ``Changes``, ``configure.ac``, ``CMakeLists.txt`` to devel and
+     devel version number.
+   - ``git commit -am "devel release"``
+   - ``make distclean && autoconf && ./configure && make test``
+   - ``git push``
+
+#. Merge GitHub pull requests tagged ``status:merge-after-release``.
+#. Check ``docs/guide/deprecations.rst`` for things due to remove.

Subject: [PATCH 006/350] Fix inlining static initializer in V3Gate (#7503)

V3Gate could incorrectly inline a non-constant static initializer of
a variable into the use site if there are no other drivers. Disabling.

Fixes #5381

+// This reproduces the pattern from the AXI bus_compare testbench:

Subject: [PATCH 046/350] Fix exponential expansion in V3Gate (#7550)

Unfortunate constellation of combinational assignments could be inlined
by V3Gate yielding an exponential expansion (added test used to consume
4GB+ memory and generate 3GB+ code).

Subject: [PATCH 048/350] Add 15 new DFG peephole optimizations (#7553)

- FOLD_SELF_SUB: x - x -> 0
- REMOVE_DIV_ONE / REMOVE_DIVS_ONE: x / 1 -> x (unsigned and signed)
- REMOVE_MUL_ZERO / REMOVE_MUL_ONE / REMOVE_MULS_ZERO / REMOVE_MULS_ONE:
  0 * x -> 0 and 1 * x -> x (unsigned and signed)
- REPLACE_NOT_LT/GTE/GT/LTE and their signed counterparts: eliminate a
  Not vertex by flipping the comparison operator

Test signals for the NOT-of-comparison GT/GTE variants use unique shift
amounts to prevent intra-pass CSE from merging their DfgGt/DfgGte vertices
with those produced when the complementary LT/LTE patterns fire, which
would otherwise trigger the !hasMultipleSinks() guard.

+test benches, and documentation.
+
+AI assistants and automated agents are not permitted to sign off on
+contributions. A human submitter is strictly responsible for reviewing,
+verifying, and testing all AI-generated content. By submitting, the
+contributor certifies that the generated content is effectively their work
+product and adheres to project standards. This accountability is affirmed
+when the human contributor signs the Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO)
+as outlined in ``docs/CONTRIBUTORS``.
+
+Contributors are encouraged to disclose the significant use of generative
+AI tools in their commit messages or Pull Request descriptions to maintain
+transparency.
+
+Contributors must ensure that the terms and conditions of the generative AI
+tool do not place any contractual restrictions on the tool's output that
+are inconsistent with Verilator's open-source licenses, the project's
+intellectual property policies, or the Open Source Definition.
+
+If any pre-existing copyrighted materials (including third-party
+open-source code or documentation) are included in the AI tool's output,

+clocked state machines that can be recovered directly from the RTL. It
+recognizes scalar enum, parameter, localparam, and selected literal state
+encodings in these common forms:
+
+- Single-process FSMs, whose state dispatch is written as ``case (state)``
+  or as a top-level ``if`` / ``else if`` chain comparing the same state
+  variable against known state values
+- Two-process and three-block FSMs, where a clocked state register is paired
+  with a combinational next-state block using the same supported
+  ``case`` or top-level ``if`` / ``else if`` dispatch forms
+
+Simple input guards are supported when they appear inside a recognized
+state branch, or as a top-level conjunction containing exactly one state
+comparison, such as ``(state_q == IDLE) && ready``. Directly traceable
+predecoded state aliases, such as ``assign idle_state = (state_q == IDLE)``,
+may also be used in these guarded predicates.
+
+Verilator does not claim broad support for arbitrary predicate
+decomposition, one-hot inference, helper-function next-state recovery,
+deeply nested control recovery, or cross-module state alias tracing.
 
 The following metacomments may be attached to the state variable to steer

-mix -- mix 3 32-bit values reversibly.
-For every delta with one or two bits set, and the deltas of all three
-  high bits or all three low bits, whether the original value of a,b,c
-  is almost all zero or is uniformly distributed,
-* If mix() is run forward or backward, at least 32 bits in a,b,c
-  have at least 1/4 probability of changing.
-* If mix() is run forward, every bit of c will change between 1/3 and
-  2/3 of the time.  (Well, 22/100 and 78/100 for some 2-bit deltas.)
-mix() was built out of 36 single-cycle latency instructions in a
-  structure that could supported 2x parallelism, like so:
-      a -= b;
-      a -= c; x = (c>>13);
-      b -= c; a ^= x;
-      b -= a; x = (a<<8);
-      c -= a; b ^= x;
-      c -= b; x = (b>>13);
-      ...
-  Unfortunately, superscalar Pentiums and Sparcs can't take advantage
-  of that parallelism.  They've also turned some of those single-cycle
-  latency instructions into multi-cycle latency instructions.  Still,
-  this is the fastest good hash I could find.  There were about 2^^68
-  to choose from.  I only looked at a billion or so.

-j_hash() -- hash a variable-length key into a 32-bit value
-  k       : the key (the unaligned variable-length array of bytes)
-  len     : the length of the key, counting by bytes
-  initval : can be any 4-byte value
-Returns a 32-bit value.  Every bit of the key affects every bit of
-the return value.  Every 1-bit and 2-bit delta achieves avalanche.
-About 6*len+35 instructions.
-
-The best hash table sizes are powers of 2.  There is no need to do
-mod a prime (mod is sooo slow!).  If you need less than 32 bits,
-use a bitmask.  For example, if you need only 10 bits, do
-  h = (h & hashmask(10));
-In which case, the hash table should have hashsize(10) elements.
-
-If you are hashing n strings (uint8_t **)k, do it like this:
-  for (i=0, h=0; i<n; ++i) h = hash( k[i], len[i], h);

- * By default, access to unaligned memory is controlled by `memcpy()`, which is safe and portable.

- * The below switch allow to select different access method for improved performance.
- * Method 0 (default) : use `memcpy()`. Safe and portable.
- * Method 1 : `__packed` statement. It depends on compiler extension (ie, not portable).
- *            This method is safe if your compiler supports it, and *generally* as fast or faster than `memcpy`.
- * Method 2 : direct access. This method is portable but violate C standard.
- *            It can generate buggy code on targets which assembly generation depends on alignment.
- *            But in some circumstances, it's the only known way to get the most performance (ie GCC + ARMv6)
- * See https://fastcompression.blogspot.fr/2015/08/accessing-unaligned-memory.html for details.

-/**
-  Introduction
-
-  LZ4 is lossless compression algorithm, providing compression speed >500 MB/s per core,
-  scalable with multi-cores CPU. It features an extremely fast decoder, with speed in
-  multiple GB/s per core, typically reaching RAM speed limits on multi-core systems.
-
-  The LZ4 compression library provides in-memory compression and decompression functions.
-  It gives full buffer control to user.
-  Compression can be done in:
-    - a single step (described as Simple Functions)
-    - a single step, reusing a context (described in Advanced Functions)
-    - unbounded multiple steps (described as Streaming compression)
-
-  lz4.h generates and decodes LZ4-compressed blocks (doc/lz4_Block_format.md).
-  Decompressing such a compressed block requires additional metadata.
-  Exact metadata depends on exact decompression function.
-  For the typical case of LZ4_decompress_safe(),
-  metadata includes block's compressed size, and maximum bound of decompressed size.
-  Each application is free to encode and pass such metadata in whichever way it wants.
-
-  lz4.h only handle blocks, it can not generate Frames.
-
-  Blocks are different from Frames (doc/lz4_Frame_format.md).
-  Frames bundle both blocks and metadata in a specified manner.
-  Embedding metadata is required for compressed data to be self-contained and portable.
-  Frame format is delivered through a companion API, declared in lz4frame.h.
-  The `lz4` CLI can only manage frames.

- *    maxBlockSize is the maximum size of any single block. It can have any value > 16 bytes.
- *    In which case, encoding and decoding buffers do not need to be synchronized.
- *    Actually, data can be produced by any source compliant with LZ4 format specification, and respecting maxBlockSize.
- *  - Synchronized mode :
- *    Decompression buffer size is _exactly_ the same as compression buffer size,
- *    and follows exactly same update rule (block boundaries at same positions),
- *    and decoding function is provided with exact decompressed size of each block (exception for last block of the stream),

-/*! In-place compression and decompression
- *
- * It's possible to have input and output sharing the same buffer,
- * for highly constrained memory environments.
- * In both cases, it requires input to lay at the end of the buffer,
- * and decompression to start at beginning of the buffer.
- * Buffer size must feature some margin, hence be larger than final size.
- *
- * |<------------------------buffer--------------------------------->|
- *                             |<-----------compressed data--------->|
- * |<-----------decompressed size------------------>|
- *                                                  |<----margin---->|
- *
- * This technique is more useful for decompression,
- * since decompressed size is typically larger,
- * and margin is short.
- *
- * In-place decompression will work inside any buffer
- * which size is >= LZ4_DECOMPRESS_INPLACE_BUFFER_SIZE(decompressedSize).
- * This presumes that decompressedSize > compressedSize.
- * Otherwise, it means compression actually expanded data,
- * and it would be more efficient to store such data with a flag indicating it's not compressed.
- * This can happen when data is not compressible (already compressed, or encrypted).
- *
- * For in-place compression, margin is larger, as it must be able to cope with both
- * history preservation, requiring input data to remain unmodified up to LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX,
- * and data expansion, which can happen when input is not compressible.
- * As a consequence, buffer size requirements are much higher,
- * and memory savings offered by in-place compression are more limited.
- *
- * There are ways to limit this cost for compression :
- * - Reduce history size, by modifying LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX.
- *   Note that it is a compile-time constant, so all compressions will apply this limit.
- *   Lower values will reduce compression ratio, except when input_size < LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX,
- *   so it's a reasonable trick when inputs are known to be small.
- * - Require the compressor to deliver a "maximum compressed size".
- *   This is the `dstCapacity` parameter in `LZ4_compress*()`.
- *   When this size is < LZ4_COMPRESSBOUND(inputSize), then compression can fail,
- *   in which case, the return code will be 0 (zero).
- *   The caller must be ready for these cases to happen,
- *   and typically design a backup scheme to send data uncompressed.
- * The combination of both techniques can significantly reduce
- * the amount of margin required for in-place compression.
- *
- * In-place compression can work in any buffer
- * which size is >= (maxCompressedSize)
- * with maxCompressedSize == LZ4_COMPRESSBOUND(srcSize) for guaranteed compression success.
- * LZ4_COMPRESS_INPLACE_BUFFER_SIZE() depends on both maxCompressedSize and LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX,
- * so it's possible to reduce memory requirements by playing with them.

Subject: [PATCH 070/350] V3Timing: pre-clear destructive event state before
 dynamic waits (#7340)

When lowering dynamic event controls, destructive pre-clear updates were inserted with addHereThisAsNext() on the original node and then that node was replaced. This could leave leaked/orphaned nodes under leak-checking runs.

Build an explicit replacement stmt chain instead:
  [pre-clear stmts] -> trigger loop -> awaitResumption,
and replace the original control with the chain head. Keep the loop-only path unchanged when no destructive pre-clear is needed.

+state encodings, such as high-Hamming-distance enum or localparam values,

+Debugging Non-Deterministic Results
+-----------------------------------
+
+The Verilator binary should be deterministic, producing the same Verilated
+C++ and stdout when run multiple times with the same inputs. A common
+source of non-determinism is (mis-)use of pointers in container
+comparisons, causing arbitrary changes im memory layout to make container
+comparisons differ, and in turn creating differences in Ast layout, and
+ultimately different C++ code.
+
+To debug this, compile Verilator with the `VL_ALLOC_RANDOM_CHECKS` define,
+then Verilator may be run with a seed e.g. `-debug-alloc-random 22` and
+`-debug-alloc-random 33` which will randomly change the memory allocation
+order. If multiple seeds are run, `verilator_difftree` may then be used to
+see where netlists start to differ. Once the Ast difference is determined,
+the debugging tips above can then further isolate the C++ code causing a
+specific node to be created or changed.
+
+The typical fix is to add a comparison operator to the problematic
+container, e.g. compare using `AstNodeComparator` or by `name()`.
+
+The following script is an example of this debugging:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   # Before this: ./configure CXX="g++ -DVL_ALLOC_RANDOM_CHECKS" && make -j
+   # Example script for finding nondeterminism

+
+   Declares that the specified module is a transparent FSM state-register

+   The ``-q`` option names the wrapper output port carrying registered state.
+   The ``-clock`` option names the wrapper clock port.
+
+   Verilator does not infer wrapper semantics from module or port naming
+   conventions. A wrapper module must be declared with this option before
+   Verilator will use instances of it to extract FSM state and transition
+   coverage.
+
+   The ``-reset`` and ``-reset_value`` options are optional. Reset arcs are

+State registers may also be wrapped by a transparent instance, for
+example a project flop wrapper or primitive. Such wrappers must be
+described explicitly with a VLT command file action before Verilator will
+use their data, state, clock, or reset connections for FSM extraction:
+
+.. code-block:: sv
+
+   `verilator_config

+Reset arcs are emitted only when the configured reset port has an
+inferable edge in the wrapper and the configured reset value parameter is
+statically resolvable. If reset metadata is incomplete, Verilator warns
+and may still emit FSM state and transition coverage, but reset arcs are
+omitted.

 Reset transitions are included in the collected data either way. By
 default, :command:`verilator_coverage` summarizes reset-only arcs rather
 than printing them alongside non-reset arcs. Use

Subject: [PATCH 117/350] Fix erroneous implicit conversions of VlWide (#7642)

Change WDataInP/WDataOutP to be opaque handles types instead of aliases
to raw pointers. This subsequently eliminates needing an implicit cast
operator in VlWide, which is replaced with implicit constructors of
WDataInP/WDataOutP that can create a handle from a VlWide. This
eliminates some unsafe conversions that the previous implicit cast
operator unintentionally enabled (e.g. #7618). It also eliminates
having to insert ".data()" in various places int he generated code, which
simplifies internals (the only place ".data()" should be needed is in
calls to variadic functions where the expected type of the argument is
not WDataInP/WDataOutP).

The handles otherwise behave like pointers, implementing the minimal
amount of operators required to code the runtime. The handle is still
only a single pointer, and will be passed in registers as before, so
this patch should be performance neutral.

As part of this removed WData, which used to be an alias for EData.
All uses are now either EData*, WDataInP, WDataOutP, or VlWide directly.

These were a victim of recent refactor but are actually important
(#4733). It also helps in debug builds not to use -O0 memcpy/memset.

Subject: [PATCH 124/350] Internals: Remove 'VlWide::operator bool()' (#7652)

This was a fudge to work around using VlWide in `if` conditions without
a `_ != 0` check. That check is actually inserted by V3Width (or an
equivalent reduction), so the offending code was only generated
internally. Hopefully fixed the single instance where this really
happened. (If not, C++ will fail to compile with "cannot convert VlWide
to bool in 'if (__HERE__)'" errors, still better than the old version
which used to silently not do the right test due to incorrect implicit
conversions.)

    toggle coverage. Defaults to 256, as covering large vectors may greatly
    slow coverage simulations.
 
+.. option:: --coverage-per-instance
+
+   For Verilator-inserted coverage, preserve generated coverage counters and
+   ``.dat`` records per hierarchy instance. This option must be specified when
+   Verilating the model, together with one or more coverage instrumentation
+   options, for example :vlopt:`--coverage`, :vlopt:`--coverage-line`,
+   :vlopt:`--coverage-toggle`, :vlopt:`--coverage-expr`,
+   :vlopt:`--coverage-fsm`, or :vlopt:`--coverage-user`. It may increase
+   generated model size, counter memory, coverage write time, and ``.dat`` file
+   size.
+
+   This does not affect SystemVerilog ``cover``, which uses the IEEE-specified
+   coverage option ``per_instance``.
+
 .. option:: --coverage-toggle
 
    Enables adding signal toggle coverage. See :ref:`Toggle Coverage`.

-   Warns that an ``always_comb`` block has a variable that is set after it

+   Warns that an ``always_comb`` block reads a variable before assigning it
+   later in the same block. Because statements in a procedural block execute
+   in source order, the read observes the variable's previous value for that

+.. option:: NOTREDOP
+
+   Error that a logical not operator is directly followed by an
+   unparenthesized reduction operator, such as ``!|a``. The IEEE 1800-2023 Annex A
+   grammar requires the operand of ``!`` to be a primary expression, not an
+   unparenthesized reduction expression.
+
+   For example:
+
+   .. include:: ../../docs/gen/ex_NOTREDOP_msg.rst
+
+   Some simulators support this syntax as an extension, but it is recommended to fix
+   these to match IEEE. To do so, add parentheses around the reduction expression,
+   for example use ``!(|a)`` instead of ``!|a``.
+
+   Suppressing this error will suppress the error message check; it will simulate
+   correctly.

Subject: [PATCH 155/350] Optimize if branches with same trailing statements
 (#7674)

If the same statements appears in both branches of an 'if', put a single
copy after the 'if', apply recursively. This also has the effect of
getting rid of conditionals with identical branches, but is more widely
applicable.

+variables with identical non-empty footprints, emit those groups in deterministic
+footprint-key order, then emit variables with no footprint information last.
 
-The footprint ordering is literally the traveling salesman problem, and we
-use a TSP-approximation algorithm to get close to an optimal sort.
+The first emitted variable in each footprint group is aligned to a cache-line
+boundary. This avoids false sharing between different macro-task footprints
+without building a complete pairwise-distance graph over all footprints, which
+would use excessive memory on very large models.
 
 This is an old idea. Simulators designed at DEC in the early 1990s used
 similar techniques to optimize both single-thread and multithread modes.

Subject: [PATCH 168/350] Optimize wide conditional expansion in V3Premit
 (#7691)

V3Premit extracts wide sub-expressions via temporaries, which is needed
for emitting wide operations to C++ (calls to `VL_*_W`). The previous
version used to extract both branches of an AstCond unconditionally,
meaning both branches were fully evaluated. Rewriting the AstCond into
an AstIf instead enables evaluating only the required branch. While
this does limit V3Subst, overall the resulting code is ~3% faster,
and contains ~25% fewer branches on a large design.

Subject: [PATCH 175/350] Optimize $sformat in V3Life (#7703)

Treat AstSFormat as a special form of assignment in V3Life. This allows
eliminating earlier redundant assignments to strings when an $sformat
later sets the string. UVM has lot of these.

Subject: [PATCH 177/350] Optimize $sformatf into $sformat (#7701)

Turn `x = $sformatf(...)` into `$sformat(x, ...)`. The former requires
checking and running a destructor for `x` at the call site, the later
does it in the callee VL_SFORMAT. This reduces the size of the call
site, which can be significant e.g. in the presence of many assertions.

Also added a rewrite of `$sformat(x, "const-string")` back into `x =
"const-string"` for the cases where the `$sformatf` would have been
folded into a constant string.

Subject: [PATCH 178/350] Optimize string formatting runtime functions

Add an overload that takes `const char*` format string. This avoids
having to construct/destruct a temporary `std::string` at the call site
when calling these functions with a string literal, which is fairly
common. This is worth 25% code size on some assertion heavy design.

Also use `std::string::clear()` instead of assigning an empty string
which is more efficient.

Subject: [PATCH 182/350] Optimize runtime assertOn() checks (#7707)

Combine consecutive assertOn() checks into one, and hoist past enclosing
'if' statements if possible. This enables combining a lot of them, which
can be worth 10% performance on some assertion heavy designs depending
on how the assertions are written.

Subject: [PATCH 211/350] CI: Load RTLMeter cases to run from separate file
 (#7730)

Add a script that prints the job matrix of cases to run with RTLMeter.
This enables running different sets based on parameters. It will run
everything on scheduled nightly runs, but only a subset on PRs (to reduce
time and variance due to short cases).

Also prints the job matrix in descending duration order, which
effectively makes GitHub actions schedule longest jobs first to reduce
total workflow latency.

Subject: [PATCH 218/350] Configure: Fall back on dynamic malloc libraries if
 static not available (#7736)

When configured with --enable-partial-static (default on), only the
availability of static libraries were checked. Some platform only
package dynamic libs. If the static library is not found, fall back on
trying the dynamic one.

Subject: [PATCH 220/350] CI: Fix max-parallel factor for RTLMeter runs

The intention was to run scheduled with max 2 parallel jobs, however,
due to a bug they were run with 7 just like PR runs. This didn't seem to
cause problems, so change it all to 7, except for the hierarchical,
which runs on 6, for a total of a maximum 20 parallel RTLMeter run jobs
per workflow run.

Subject: [PATCH 226/350] CI: Improve RTLMeter PR report (#7740)

- If any simulated cycle counts mismatch, report them and fail the job
- Keep "Elapsed" only in cppbuild
- Ignore "Elapsed" and "CPU" samples less than 30 seconds - too noisy
- Widen acceptable ranges on "Elapsed" and "Memory"
- Add badge legend

Subject: [PATCH 233/350] Optimize Dfg with relaxed live variable analysis
 (#7739)

Relax the live variable analysis performed by Dfg to bail on fewer
cases. This analysis was already conservative (meaning it might think
variables are live when they are not), which is good enough for Dfg use.
This change in particular enables synthesizing more complex logic
involving arrays, e.g. those introduce by V3Table creating lookup
tables.

-// DESCRIPTION: Verilator: Implementation of Christofides algorithm to
-//              approximate the solution to the traveling salesman problem.
-//
-// ISSUES: This isn't exactly Christofides algorithm; see the TODO
-//         in perfectMatching(). True minimum-weight perfect matching
-//         would produce a better result. How much better is TBD.

Subject: [PATCH 237/350] Optimize conditional patterns sharing common
 MBSs/LSBs in DfgPeephole (#7760)

Replace 3 DfgCond patterns with 2 more general ones that convert DfgCond
with common MSBs/LSBs in both branches into a DfgConcat with a narrower
DfgCond. This pattern arises frequently with Dfg synthesis.

Subject: [PATCH 241/350] Optimize bit select removal earlier in Dfg (#7762)

Add a simple Dfg pass that removes redundant bit selects early. This
can significantly cut down on downstream work and remove some temporary
variables introduced during synthesis.

Subject: [PATCH 243/350] Optimize V3Gate inlining heuristic (#7716)

V3Gate used to inline too many expensive operations. One particularly
bad example is inlining `{<<{wide}}` (bit-reverse of a wide signal),
which is a single input node, but is quite expensive to compute, which
we always used to inline.

Change the heuristic to only inline single input nodes if they are not
wide, or a cheap wide operation, otherwise treat them the same as
multi-input ops and inline them only if they are used no more than once.

V3Begin used to lift impure case expressions. With V3LiftExpr, this is
now redundant.

Subject: [PATCH 245/350] Fix 'case (_) inside' with x wildcards (#7766)

Found by inspection, case inside used to threat 'x' as a value, not as a
wildcard. Per the standard it should behave as '==?' which treats both
'x' and 'z' as wildcards.

Subject: [PATCH 255/350] Optimize away proven redundant case statement
 assertions (#7771)

This is still mostly refactoring of V3Case, but with functional changes.
Decouple the exhaustiveness/overlap analysis from the decision to
convert the case using the fast bitwise testing method. This enables
dropping the 'notParallel' assertions for those we can prove exhaustive
and unique, even if we decide to convert them using the generic if/else
ladder scheme.

Subject: [PATCH 258/350] Deprecate isolate_assignments attribute (#7774)

As per discussion. Remove the unsound V3SplitAs pass. The
isolate_assignments attribute/directive is now parsed and ignored in the
frontend for compatibility but otherwise have no effect.

Fixes #7144

Subject: [PATCH 263/350] Internals: Inline AstVar::isToggleCoverable()

Inline into the single call site, remove unnecessary isSc() and
isPrimaryIO() guards (these flags are set only in a later pass).

No functional change.

Subject: [PATCH 266/350] Optimize input combinational logic by change
 detection (#7784)

When a lot of combinational logic is driven from top level inputs,
work can be wasted evaluating that logic if the top level inputs don't
change.

This change adds an optimization by performing a change detect on the
top level inputs, and evaluate 'ico' logic only if the top level input
actually changed. This especially helps with --hierarchical/--lib-create
which runs the 'ico' of each sub-model in the eval settle loop.

This was observed to yield 40%+ run-time speedup on some partitioned
designs.

The added change detection is cheap, so it is emitted even if the 'ico'
region is small, and is on by default.

The optimization is only sound if the model itself does not write to the
top level inputs (otherwise the 'previous value' variables would be out
of sync, which are not updated by internal writes.). If we can detect a
top level input is written within the design, then for that input, we
fall back on always running the relevant logic. With --vpi we cannot
prove safety statically, so --vpi will disable this optimisation unless
explicitly enabled. (In which case it's the user's responsibility to not
write to top level inputs via the VPI.)

+   Rarely needed. Disable input change detection in the input combinational
+   ('ico') region. With change detection enabled (the default, unless
+   :vlopt:`--vpi` is passed), the input combinational logic is evaluated only
+   when a top level input has actually changed, rather than unconditionally on
+   the first scheduling iteration.
+
+   The change detection logic assumes a top level input only ever changes
+   externally between evaluations. The optimization is automatically disabled
+   for top level input signals that are written within the design. Accesses via
+   the VPI cannot be analyzed at compile time, therefore :vlopt:`--vpi`
+   disables this optimization for all inputs; it may be turned back on by
+   explicitly passing :vlopt:`-fico-change-detect`.

+# Verilator Guidelines for AI Coding Agents
+
+These files are the general layer an agent loads first -- nearest file wins, so
+you read this repository-root file plus the one for the directory you are
+editing. They stay deliberately high-level: where to start, how the tree is laid
+out, and the conventions reviewers otherwise enforce by hand. They are an index,
+not the architecture reference -- for depth (how a pass works internally, the
+algorithms, node lifetime) they point you to `docs/internals.rst`. When the
+guidance here is not enough, that is where to look next.
+
+This file has two parts. **Orientation** gets you productive in the codebase from
+a cold start. **Before you open a PR** is the checklist of conventions reviewers
+otherwise have to enforce by hand -- read it before submitting any change.
+
+Then read the directory guide for the area you are editing:
+
+- [src/AGENTS.md](src/AGENTS.md) -- compiler C++ sources: AST, visitors, passes, parser, style
+- [include/AGENTS.md](include/AGENTS.md) -- runtime library (`verilated*`): C++14, MT-safety, fixed-width types
+- [test_regress/AGENTS.md](test_regress/AGENTS.md) -- regression tests: harness, drivers, golden files
+- [docs/AGENTS.md](docs/AGENTS.md) -- documentation (`*.rst`)
+
+---
+
+# Orientation
+
+## What Verilator is
+
+Verilator is a *compiler*, not an interpreter. It translates synthesizable (and
+much behavioral) SystemVerilog into a cycle-accurate C++ model that you then
+compile and run. Almost every decision is made at compile ("verilation") time;
+the generated C++ just advances state each evaluation. Optimize for verilation-
+time work over runtime work.
+
+## The pipeline is the spine
+
+A run is an ordered sequence of passes over one shared AST (abstract syntax
+tree). In source order:
+
+| Stage | What it does | Key files |
+|---|---|---|
+| Preprocess + parse | Lex and parse text into a raw AST -- builds nodes only, no semantic checks | `verilog.l`, `verilog.y` |
+| Link / elaborate | Resolve names, scopes, parameters; instantiate the hierarchy | `V3LinkParse`, `V3LinkDot`, `V3Param` |
+| Width / type | Assign and check data types and bit widths | `V3Width` |
+| Transform / optimize / schedule | Constant fold, lower language features, schedule events | `V3Const`, `V3Randomize`, `V3Assert*`, `V3Sched`, `V3Timing`, `V3Dfg` |
+| Emit | Lower the final AST to generated C++ | `V3EmitC*` |
+| Runtime | Library the generated model links against | `include/verilated*` |
+
+This table is the map; `docs/internals.rst` has the detail behind each stage.
+
+## Where to make a change
+
+Map the symptom to the pass that owns it, then start by reading that pass's
+top-of-file comment.
+
+| Symptom or feature area | Start in |
+|---|---|
+| Type/width error, "what type is this", implicit conversion | `V3Width` |
+| Name/scope/parameter resolution ("Can't find...", hierarchy) | `V3LinkDot`, `V3Param` |
+| `randomize` / `constraint` / `rand` / `randc` | `V3Randomize` |
+| `assert` / `property` / `sequence` / `cover` | `V3Assert`, `V3AssertPre`, `V3AssertNfa` |
+| `fork` / timing / `#delay` / NBA / event scheduling | `V3Sched`, `V3Timing`, `V3Fork` |
+| Syntax wrongly accepted or rejected | `verilog.y`, `verilog.l` |
+| Wrong generated C++ | `V3EmitC*` |
+| Runtime model behavior | `include/verilated*` |
+
+## Build and run a test
+
+- Build in the source tree: `autoconf && ./configure && make -j8`. Configure with
+  `--enable-ccwarn` so a new compiler warning stops the build.
+- Run one test from the repository root: `test_regress/t/t_<name>.py`.
+- Run the full regression with `make test`. The complete suite requires
+  configuring with `--enable-longtests` (works on every OS, including macOS).
+
+---
+
+# Before you open a PR
+
+## Scope and process
+
+- [ ] Searched open PRs and issues -- duplicating in-flight work wastes review time.
+- [ ] Fixed the general root cause, not just the reported case -- if it also
+      affects other modules/classes/interfaces, cover them or expect rejection.
+- [ ] PR is single-purpose. Refactors, drive-by fixes found along the way, and new
+      features each go in separate PRs; land standalone cleanups first.
+- [ ] Every bug fix has a test that fails *without* the fix; include the issue's
+      own reproducer when possible.
+- [ ] New code aims for 100% line coverage; branch coverage far below line coverage
+      signals guards callers never violate -- justify or remove them.
+- [ ] Ran `make format` (clang-format), `make cppcheck`, and `make lint-py`;
+      self-reviewed the diff for leftover debug code, stale comments, and
+      copy-paste errors.
+- [ ] Ran the full regression on at least one OS before submitting. Partial runs
+      are fine during development, but the submitted PR is expected to pass every
+      test.
+- [ ] Did not edit `docs/CONTRIBUTORS` (humans only) or `Changes` (maintainer
+      updates it near release).
+
+## Pick the right diagnostic (and its required test)
+
+The API you choose determines which test must accompany the change.
+
+| API | Output | Meaning | Required test |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `v3error("...")` | `%Error:` | User wrote invalid SystemVerilog | `t_*_bad*.v` + `.out` golden |
+| `v3error("Unsupported: ...")` | `%Error-UNSUPPORTED:` | Legal SV that Verilator does not yet support | `t_*_unsup*.v` + `.out` golden |
+| `v3warn(CODE, "...")` | `%Warning-CODE:` | Legal but suspicious code | warning test + `.out` golden |
+| `v3fatalSrc("...")` | `%Error: Internal Error` | Should-never-happen internal assertion | none -- not user-triggerable |
+
+- Every `v3error`/`v3warn` needs a test in `test_regress/t/` -- enforced by the
+  warn-coverage distribution test. `v3fatalSrc` is exempt.
+- Reserve "Unsupported:" for not-yet-implemented features, never for user mistakes.
+- When an error enforces a spec-defined restriction, cite the clause
+  (`IEEE 1800-2023 11.4.7`) so it is verifiable. Update `docs/guide/warnings.rst`
+  when adding or changing a warning.
+- On error paths, clean up or replace invalid AST (e.g. `AstConst::BitFalse`) so
+  later passes do not crash after the error.
+
+## Cross-cutting code rules
+
+- [ ] No non-ASCII characters in C++ sources or headers: write `--` (two ASCII
+      hyphens) rather than a Unicode em-dash, and a plain `'` rather than a smart
+      quote. At write time, not when CI complains.
+- [ ] Lists stay sorted: lexer/parser tokens, option declarations, enum values,
+      configure feature lists, documented option lists.
+- [ ] `bin/` scripts are Python (distributed cross-platform); `nodist/` may use
+      bash and platform-specific code (developer-only, not packaged).
+- [ ] Runtime code in `include/` targets C++14 (`--no-timing` builds must work);
+      C++20 only in timing code paths.
+- [ ] In `include/` public headers, prefix public classes with `Verilated`/`Vl`
+      and document the API with `///` comments.
+- [ ] A new code pattern is applied globally or not at all -- no one-off
+      convention in a single file.
+
+## Commits
+
+- Subject line is short and imperative and conventionally ends with the PR number:
+  `Support property case (#7721)`. A body is optional and common for non-trivial
+  changes.

+# docs/ Guidelines -- Verilator documentation (*.rst)
+
+When to check: before editing anything under `docs/`.
+Read the repository-root [AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md) first for process and cross-cutting rules.
+
+## Writing rules
+
+- Rewrap paragraphs after editing -- keep consistent line length in `*.rst` files.
+
+- Document only stable, implemented features -- never planned or in-development capabilities; prevents user confusion and support burden.
+
+- Explain WHAT and WHEN, not HOW -- conceptual purpose and practical use cases over implementation mechanics; describe behavior ("optimized as pure", not "treated as pure") and clarify ambiguous referents ("in the internals of Verilator").
+
+- Keep terminology consistent -- one term per concept; update docs when renaming code constructs; spell out full terms, avoiding abbreviations like "sim"/"sims".
+
+- Use "how many" for countable nouns (threads, tasks, workers) and "how much" for uncountable quantities.
+
+- Mark internal or experimental features "for internal use only" -- prevents user dependence and forced deprecation cycles later.
+
+- Use specific IEEE references: `IEEE {number}-{year}` plus the section (e.g. `Annex I`) -- a vague "IEEE spec requires" is unverifiable.
+
+- Document all flags with descriptions, not just syntax.
+
+## reStructuredText mechanics
+
+- Use the `:vlopt:` role for Verilator option references -- makes cross-references clickable and consistent.
+
+- Escape angle brackets (`\<`, `\>`) in link targets -- prevents broken links to command-line options.
+
+- Generate documentation examples with `test.extract` from `test_regress` test files -- examples stay synced with actually tested behavior.
+
+## Hard constraint
+
+- Never edit `docs/CONTRIBUTORS` -- only humans may, after reading and agreeing to its statement; remind the user instead.

+# include/ -- Verilator runtime library
+
+Covers the C++ runtime under `include/` (`verilated.h/.cpp`, `verilated_*.h/.cpp`)
+that every generated model links against. Read the repository-root
+[AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md) first. The rules here differ from `src/`: this code
+ships to users, runs every simulation cycle, and must stay portable and fast.
+
+---
+
+# Orientation
+
+- **This is the runtime, not the compiler.** The passes in `src/` *emit* C++ that
+  calls into this library; this code then *runs* during simulation. Optimize it
+  for execution speed and portability, not for compile-time clarity.
+- **Key files:** `verilated.h` (core model API), `verilated_types.h` (data
+  types), `verilated_random.cpp` (constrained-random runtime), `verilated_cov.*`
+  (coverage), `verilated_threads.*` (MT runtime), `verilated_timing.*`
+  (`--timing` runtime), `verilated_vcd_c.*`/`verilated_fst_c.*` (tracing).
+- A runtime-only fix lives entirely here and does not rebuild `verilator_bin`.
+
+---
+
+# Before you open a PR
+
+- **C++14 baseline.** The runtime must build under `--no-timing` with C++14; C++20
+  features are allowed only in `--timing` code paths.
+- **Public API naming and docs.** Prefix public classes and types with
+  `Verilated`/`Vl` to avoid collisions with user code, and document the API with
+  `///` comments -- they feed doc generation.
+- **No exceptions in runtime code** -- use error returns or assertions; exceptions
+  add overhead on every path.
+- **Use fixed-width model types** (`CData`/`SData`/`IData`/`QData`/`VlWide`), never
+  `size_t`, for model data. Process wide data word-by-word (`VL_ZERO_W`,
+  `VL_MEMCPY_W`), never bit-by-bit or byte-by-byte.
+- **Do all string parsing at verilation time** -- never parse strings during
+  simulation; emit structured data or compile-time hints instead.
+- **Keep per-cycle code lean.** Do not add vtables to high-frequency objects
+  (8 bytes per instance); guard optional features behind
+  `hasClasses()`/`hasEvents()`-style checks; functions called per cycle must avoid
+  mutexes -- use atomics or lockless designs.
+- **Emit no runtime loops** the compiler could have expanded at verilation time;
+  prefer a single runtime call.
+- **Thread safety.** Annotate with the hierarchy `VL_PURE` > `VL_MT_SAFE` >
+  `VL_MT_STABLE`; annotations must match the implementation. Annotate
+  mutex-protected members with `VL_GUARDED_BY` and document acquisition ordering.
+  Prefer has-a over is-a: a guarded class wrapping the unguarded internal one, with
+  the guarded version as the default public API.
+- **Keep runtime and compiler headers separate** -- never include `verilated.h`
+  into the compiler in `src/`.
+
+## File-specific rules
+
+| File | Rule |
+|---|---|
+| `verilated_random.cpp` | Emit only portable SMT-LIB 2.6 -- no solver-specific or MaxSMT extensions; the generated solver text is the model's runtime constraint interface |
+| `verilated_cov.cpp` | Coverage runtime is shared by all models -- keep per-point overhead minimal and the on-disk format stable for `verilator_coverage` |

+# src/ -- Verilator compiler sources
+
+Covers all C++ under `src/`, including astgen inputs and the parser/lexer
+(`verilog.y`, `verilog.l`). Read the repository-root [AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md)
+first. This file has two parts: **Orientation** explains the AST and pass model;
+**Before you open a PR** is the style and correctness checklist.
+
+---
+
+# Orientation: the AST and the visitor model
+
+- **Everything is an `AstNode`.** Each construct is an `Ast*` subclass (`AstAdd`,
+  `AstVar`, `AstIf`). The design under analysis is one tree, with statement lists
+  threaded by sibling `nextp()` links.
+- **Children sit in numbered slots `op1p()`..`op4p()`, accessed by name.** Use the
+  named accessors (`lhsp()`, `condp()`, `thensp()`), not the raw slots -- the
+  numbering is an implementation detail.
+- **`astgen` generates node boilerplate.** Declare children and cross-node
+  pointers with `@astgen op` / `@astgen ptr` annotations in the `V3AstNode*.h`
+  headers; it emits accessors, clone, and broken-check code. Do not hand-write
+  what astgen can generate.
+- **A pass is a visitor.** Convention: a class with a private constructor and a
+  static `apply()` entry point, named after its file (`TimingSuspendableVisitor`
+  in `V3Timing.cpp`). It walks the tree through `visit(AstFoo*)` handlers and
+  `iterateChildren()`. To understand a pass, read its top-of-file comment first --
+  every `.cpp` opens with one describing the algorithm.
+- **Scratch state lives on nodes.** Passes stash data in `user1p()`..`user5p()`
+  (and `user1()`..`user5()`), claimed for the pass lifetime with a `VNUser*InUse`
+  guard. Save and restore visitor members across recursion with `VL_RESTORER`.
+- **Three downcasts, three null behaviors:** `VN_IS` returns bool, `VN_CAST`
+  returns nullptr on mismatch, `VN_AS` asserts the type. `V3Broken` re-validates
+  tree invariants between passes, so trust resolved pointers (`dtypep()`,
+  `varp()`) instead of adding defensive null checks for impossible cases.
+- `docs/internals.rst` is the authoritative reference for the AST, the pass list,
+  and node lifetime.
+
+---
+
+# Before you open a PR
+
+## Code style
+
+- Mark every variable, parameter, pointer, and member function `const` where possible.
+- Pointer variables take a `p` suffix and pointer locals are doubly const where
+  possible: `AstVar* const varp`; non-pointers never use the `p` suffix.
+- Do not use `auto` except for iterators or genuinely unwieldy types.
+- Use pre-increment (`++i`) unless you specifically need post-increment's old value.
+- Brace-initialize node and struct construction: `new AstIf{fl, condp, thenp, elsep}`.
+- Never use C-style casts; instead use `static_cast<T>` for non-AST types and
+  `VN_AS`/`VN_CAST` for AST downcasts.
+- `static constexpr` for compile-time constants, not `#define` or file-scope const.
+- Mark every `class`/`struct` `final` or `VL_NOT_FINAL` -- a distribution test
+  scans all definitions.
+- Keep functions under roughly 100-150 lines; thread shared state through a
+  context struct rather than long parameter lists.
+- Keep headers lean: move implementation to `.cpp`; convert large lambdas into
+  named member functions -- lambdas are opaque in stack traces and block reuse.
+- Start every new `.cpp` with a top-of-file comment explaining the algorithm.
+- Comments are capitalized sentences written for an unknown future reader, without
+  "I"/"we"/"our"; remove commented-out code -- version control preserves history.
+- No `using namespace`; prefix non-namespaced symbols with `VL`/`Vl`.
+- Prefer semantic predicates over enum comparisons: `varp->isClassMember()`, not
+  `varp->varType() == VVarType::MEMBER`.
+- `new*` functions return a `new` object; `make*` functions do something more
+  complex -- pick the prefix accordingly.
+- Name compiler-created temporaries with a `__V` prefix plus a context suffix
+  (`__VInside`, `__VCase`); runtime utility functions use a `vl_` prefix.
+- Use `VL_*` bit/word macros from `verilatedos.h` (`VL_WORDS_I`, `VL_MASK_I`); do
+  not include `<cstdint>` directly.
+- Replace magic numbers with named `static constexpr` constants.
+
+## AST construction and manipulation
+
+- Build logic as AST nodes, never as raw C text in `AstCStmt` -- later passes
+  (V3Name, `--protect`) rename AST identifiers but cannot see into raw strings.
+- Know the cast forms (above) and never pair `VN_IS` with `VN_AS` on the same
+  node -- use a single `VN_CAST`:
+
+  ```cpp
+  // BAD: redundant double check
+  if (VN_IS(nodep, VarRef)) { AstVarRef* const refp = VN_AS(nodep, VarRef); }
+  // GOOD: single conditional cast
+  if (const AstVarRef* const refp = VN_CAST(nodep, VarRef)) { ... }
+  ```
+
+- Use `UASSERT_OBJ(cond, nodep, "...")` over `UASSERT` when a node is in scope;
+  use `v3fatalSrc("...")` for unreachable paths, never a silent `if (!ptr) return;`.
+- Use `VL_DO_DANGLING(pushDeletep(nodep), nodep)` instead of `deleteTree()` in
+  visitors -- deferred deletion is safe against re-entry and unlinking order.
+  `deleteTree()` is only for fresh nodes that never entered the tree.
+- Every new AST member needs both `dump()` and `dumpJson()` support -- never wrap
+  these in `LCOV_EXCL`; cover them by adding a construct to `t_debug_emitv.v`.
+  Override `isSame()` to include any new semantically meaningful field.
+- Pointers to nodes outside op1p-op4p require a `broken()` override and
+  `cloneRelink()` support -- avoid storing out-of-tree node pointers when possible.
+- Never allocate AstNode objects on the stack or by value -- always pointers.
+- Prefer a new `visit()` in an existing visitor over `nodep->foreach(...)` --
+  better for runtime, and handles diverse node types better. Prefer named
+  accessors over `op1p()`..`op4p()`, and verify traversal order is preserved
+  when converting manual iteration.
+- Prefer `AstForeach` over generating unrolled loop bodies -- constant-size code
+  instead of O(N); wrap the body in `AstBegin` for scope isolation.
+- Always `skipRefp()` when comparing or resolving dtypes -- missing it breaks
+  typedef support; prove the paths with typedef tests.
+- Use `num().isOpaque()` rather than `isDouble() || isString()` when guarding
+  V3Number comparisons against non-integer types.
+- Use `FileLine::operatorCompare` for source-position ordering -- never hand-roll
+  filename/lineno comparisons.
+- Identify compiler-generated constructs by an attribute flag on the node (with
+  dump support), never by name-pattern matching -- magic names break with escaped
+  identifiers.
+- Use `V3Number` arithmetic for `AstConst` values wider than 32 bits -- `1 << i`
+  silently overflows at `i >= 32`.
+- Use `VMemberMap`/`findMember()` for name lookups in structs, classes, modules,
+  and packages -- O(1) versus quadratic linear scans.
+- Never emit raw source filenames or identifiers in generated code -- pass them
+  through `protect()`/`putsQuoted` so `--protect` does not leak source.
+
+## Visitors and passes
+
+- `VL_RESTORER` on every visitor member a `visit()` modifies before iterating
+  children -- even when nesting "cannot happen" today.
+- Every pass using `userNp()` needs a `VNUserNInUse` guard, and the header
+  documents which user fields it uses.
+- Use `iterateAndNextNull()` rather than `iterate()` -- the null-safe form
+  prevents copy-paste errors during refactors.
+- Derive read-only visitors from `VNVisitorConst` with `iterateChildrenConst`.
+- Reset per-module visitor state in `visit(AstNodeModule*)`, including numeric ID
+  counters, to keep generated names stable.
+- Capture first-occurrence module state inside the node's own `visit()` handler,
+  not via a `foreach` pre-scan from `visit(AstNodeModule)` -- source order already
+  matches IEEE declaration-before-use.
+- Avoid `backp()` -- it returns parent or prior sibling depending on position and
+  causes O(n^2) hunts; build maps or capture context during forward traversal.
+- When raw node pointers key a map or set, erase entries when the node is deleted
+  -- allocators reuse addresses, so stale entries alias new nodes.
+- Derive graph-shaped passes from V3Graph (`V3GraphVertex`/`V3GraphEdge`) -- it
+  gives dump, color, rank, topological sort, and reachability for free.
+- When a change outgrows local rewrites, create a dedicated pass instead of
+  growing an existing one.
+- State explicitly how side effects are preserved in optimizations involving
+  purity, expression lifting, or simplification.
+
+## Errors and warnings
+
+(See the root checklist for choosing the diagnostic API and its required test.)
+
+- Append `nodep->prettyNameQ()` for user-facing names; use `name()` only in
+  debug/UINFO output. Enclose specific values in single quotes: `'value'`.
+- End messages with periods, never exclamation marks; do not write "Error:" in the
+  text -- the macro prints the prefix.
+- State what was attempted and what was found: "Instance attempts to connect to
+  'PARAM' as a parameter, but it is a variable". Add a `warnMore()` suggestion
+  where possible.
+- Name warning codes object-first and short (`ASCRANGE`, not `RANGEASC`); rename
+  via `renamedTo()` so old suppressions keep working.
+- Set warning suppression on `AstVar`, not `AstVarRef` -- VarRefs get recreated
+  and lose `warnIsOff`.
+- "Unsupported:" messages describe the specific unsupported context, not just the
+  construct name -- each message must be distinct.
+- When replacing or refactoring a pass, keep existing user-facing error strings --
+  `.out` goldens and documentation depend on the wording.
+
+## Performance and memory
+
+- O(n^2) is never acceptable -- build maps for batch lookups; any quadratic loop
+  needs explicit justification in a comment.
+- Prefer `std::map` for per-module structures (many small instances); use
+  `unordered_map` only for one-per-netlist data, and never let `unordered_*`
+  iteration order reach generated output.
+- Prefer `emplace` over `insert` and check the returned `.second` instead of a
+  separate `find()`. `reserve()` strings and vectors when the size is estimable.
+- Add no new static or global mutable data -- statics are being eliminated for
+  future parallelism.
+- Use Verilator's fixed-width data types for model data (`CData`/`SData`/`IData`/
+  `QData`/`VlWide`), not `size_t`. Process wide data word-by-word
+  (`VL_ZERO_W`, `VL_MEMCPY_W`), never bit-by-bit.
+- No exceptions in verilated runtime code; do string parsing at verilation time,
+  never during simulation.
+- Wrap unlikely hot-path branches in `VL_UNLIKELY`/`VL_LIKELY`.
+- Count what every new pass does via V3Stats -- stats become deterministic
+  regression anchors.
+
+## Thread safety
+
+- Annotate with the hierarchy `VL_PURE` > `VL_MT_SAFE` > `VL_MT_STABLE`: PURE has
+  no side effects and calls only PURE; MT_SAFE is safe under locks; MT_STABLE is
+  safe only while tree topology is stable. Annotations must match the
+  implementation.
+- Never include `verilated.h` in the compiler itself -- use `verilatedos.h`.
+- Annotate mutex-protected members with `VL_GUARDED_BY` and document acquisition
+  ordering. `++` on shared state and container `empty()` are not thread-safe.
+
+## Parser and lexer (verilog.y, verilog.l)
+
+- Preserve IEEE Appendix A BNF comments (`// IEEE: {rule}`); comment explicitly
+  when accepting syntax beyond IEEE as an extension.
+- The parser only builds AST nodes -- defer semantic validation, `VN_IS` checks,
+  and context-dependent logic to V3LinkParse/V3Width and later passes.
+- Represent hierarchical paths as structured nodes (`AstDot`/parse-ref chains via
+  `idDotted`), never concatenated strings -- preserves per-segment FileLine.
+- Prefer tightening a grammar rule's operand type over a runtime cast-chain guard
+  in a later visitor -- illegal operands then fail with a clean syntax error.
+- Solve ambiguities with token-pipeline look-ahead (`tokenPipeScan*`) rather than
+  limiting grammar rules; mark unsupported rules with `//UNSUP`.
+- Sort token declarations alphabetically by string literal; sort `yD_*`
+  productions by token name.
+- Add a test for every `|` alternative and optional clause of a new or changed
+  grammar rule -- untested alternatives are where parse regressions hide.
+
+## File-specific rules
+
+| File | Rule |
+|---|---|
+| `src/V3Options.cpp` | Chain `.notForRerun()` onto `DECL_OPTION()` for options that do not affect semantic output |
+| `src/V3Ast.cpp` | For composite types (queues, dynamic arrays) use `computeCastableImp()` on subtypes -- shallow `width()`/`similarDType()` checks miss nested incompatibility |
+| `src/V3AstNode*.h` | Every node class gets a what-construct comment and every member a semantic-purpose comment; put enum type definitions in `V3AstAttr.h` |
+| `src/V3AstNodeExpr.h` | `CCast` is only for basic C types (char/short/int/QData) -- never 4-state logic or structs |
+| `src/V3AstNodeOther.h` | `cloneRelink` must propagate all stateful flags (e.g. `maybePointedTo`) and update internal references |
+| `src/V3Const.cpp` | Check `keepIfEmpty` before removing empty functions -- flagged functions must survive for codegen/side effects |
+| `src/V3Coverage.cpp` | Instrumentation contexts are opt-in (allowlist), never blocklist -- blocklists silently break when new contexts appear |
+| `src/V3Inline.cpp` | Preserve `VarXRef::varp()` during passes -- pin-reconnection needs it before V3LinkDot re-resolves |
+| `src/V3Sched*.cpp` | Every change needs a test proving necessity; isolate unrelated scheduler changes into separate PRs -- high-risk area |

+# test_regress/ -- regression tests
+
+Covers `.v`/`.sv` sources, `.py` drivers, and `.out` golden files under
+`test_regress/`. Read the repository-root [AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md) first. This
+file has two parts: **Orientation** explains how the harness runs a test;
+**Before you open a PR** is the test-authoring checklist.
+
+---
+
+# Orientation: how the harness works
+
+- **A test is a `.v`/`.sv` source plus a matching `.py` driver in `t/`.** The
+  driver calls `test.compile()`, `test.execute()`, and/or `test.lint()`. Without a
+  `.py` the source never runs and is dead code giving false coverage confidence.
+- **Golden output lives in `.out` files**, compared via `expect_filename`.
+  Generate them with `HARNESS_UPDATE_GOLDEN=1 python3 t/<name>.py` -- never
+  hand-write them; the harness normalizes paths, version markers, and line numbers
+  that hand edits get wrong.
+- **Run one test from the repository root:** `test_regress/t/t_<name>.py`. When
+  running from a checkout, set `VERILATOR_ROOT` to the checkout root first so the
+  harness compiles the generated C++ against the right headers.
+- **`test.compile()` defaults are richer than they look:** the vlt driver
+  auto-injects `--exe` and a generated main, and `assert property` fires its
+  action blocks without `--assert` -- try the simple form before adding flags.
+- **The `t_dist_*` tests enforce repository conventions** (file headers, sorted
+  lists, warning documentation, ASCII-only) -- run the relevant ones before
+  submitting.
+
+---
+
+# Before you open a PR
+
+## Naming
+
+- Name tests `t_{category}_{description}` in snake_case; the first word groups the
+  category (`t_lint_unused_func_bad`, not `t_unused_func_lint_bad`) so related
+  tests are findable and runnable together.
+- Use `_bad` when the code is illegal SystemVerilog, `_unsup` when it is legal but
+  unsupported, `_off` for disabled-behavior tests -- never `_fail`.
+- Keep filenames under roughly 30-35 characters.
+
+## Files and drivers
+
+- Every `.v` needs a matching `.py` driver that actually calls `test.compile()`
+  and `test.execute()` (or `test.lint()` for static-analysis-only tests) -- a
+  driver that sets up but never runs hides coverage gaps silently.
+- Copy the license header from an existing file: `.v` tests carry the CC0 notice,
+  `.py` drivers carry the standard driver header -- distribution tests check
+  headers on every committed file.
+- Use `--binary` instead of `--exe --main --timing` -- it implies the others.
+- Error tests use `test.compile(fails=True, expect_filename=test.golden_filename)`
+  (or `test.lint(...)`) and must not call `test.execute()`.
+- Use `.out` golden files with `expect_filename` instead of inline `expect`
+  regex strings -- goldens are diffable and maintainable.
+- Use `test.glob_one()`/`test.glob_some()` and `test.timeout()` instead of raw
+  `glob.glob()` and manual `time.time()` measurements.
+- Coverage tests run `verilator_coverage` and verify individual bins and points,
+  not just aggregate percentages.
+- Assert optimization stats with exact expected counts:
+  `test.file_grep(test.stats, r'Optimizations, ...\s+(\d+)', N)`.
+- Add a `_protect_ids` variant when a feature emits user identifiers or filenames;
+  use conservative thread counts (2 or fewer) in multithreaded tests.
+- Extend existing test files with related cases instead of creating many
+  single-purpose files; keep drivers minimal -- test logic belongs in the `.v`.
+
+## Golden .out files
+
+- Never hand-write or hand-edit `.out` goldens -- regenerate with
+  `HARNESS_UPDATE_GOLDEN=1`.
+- When a feature lands, remove its now-supported entries from `t_*_unsup.v` /
+  `t_*_bad.v` in the same change and regenerate the goldens -- stale entries no
+  longer error and reviewers will flag them.
+
+## Verilog style
+
+- 2-space indentation, no tabs.
+- Declarations are flush-left with a single space between type and name; never
+  column-align:
+
+  ```systemverilog
+  // WRONG: column-aligned
+  bit [63:0] crc    = 64'h5aef0c8d_d70a4497;
+  int        cyc    = 0;
+  // RIGHT: flush-left
+  bit [63:0] crc = 64'h5aef0c8d_d70a4497;
+  int cyc = 0;
+  ```
+
+- Run `nodist/verilog_format` on new `.v` files; wrap macro definitions in
+  `// verilog_format: off`/`on` so the formatter does not split them.
+- Use `$display("%0d", ...)` not `%d` -- avoids leading-space padding.
+- Wrap Verilator-specific test code (e.g. `$c`) in `` `ifdef VERILATOR ``.
+- Use inline `// verilator lint_off WARNCODE` only when that warning is itself
+  under test -- fix root causes otherwise.
+- Use only IEEE 1800-compliant constructs other simulators also accept -- tests
+  validate standard behavior, not Verilator's parser leniency.
+- Omit optional end labels on `endmodule`/`endclass`/`endtask`/`endfunction`.
+
+## Self-checking
+
+- Use the `checkh`/`checkd`/`checks` assertion macros, not manual
+  `if`/`$display`/`$stop` sequences. Note `checkh` prints with `%p`, which renders
+  integers as hex -- use `checkd` for integer comparisons.
+- Use the `` `stop `` macro rather than direct `$stop`.
+- Drive logic with runtime-varying inputs (counters, CRC/LFSR registers) so
+  constant folding cannot pre-evaluate the logic under test; check behavior across
+  multiple clock cycles, not just initial values.
+- For a test whose pass/fail depends on varying or random values, loop enough
+  iterations that the values demonstrably differ and size the value space so a
+  failure is probable per run, then confirm the test fails on an un-fixed tree
+  before submitting.
+
+## Test design
+
+- Use non-power-of-2, non-word-aligned widths (7, 15, 31, 33, 63, 65, 95) --
+  exposes masking and word-boundary bugs that 32/64/128 hide.
+- Test both `[high:low]` and `[low:high]` orderings plus non-zero bounds like
+  `[3:1]`; use different ranges for each axis of multidimensional arrays.
+- When adding type support, test all basic types (chandle, string, real) and
+  typedef-wrapped variants.
+- Include the issue's own reproducer as a committed test, and verify it fails
+  without the fix.
+- Assert non-blocking-assignment results in the cycle immediately after they take
+  effect, before later overwrites, using indices that change post-NBA.

 - Use `UASSERT_OBJ(cond, nodep, "...")` over `UASSERT` when a node is in scope;

+
 - Use `VL_DO_DANGLING(pushDeletep(nodep), nodep)` instead of `deleteTree()` in
   visitors -- deferred deletion is safe against re-entry and unlinking order.
   `deleteTree()` is only for fresh nodes that never entered the tree.

   these in `LCOV_EXCL`; cover them by adding a construct to `t_debug_emitv.v`.
   Override `isSame()` to include any new semantically meaningful field.
+
 - Pointers to nodes outside op1p-op4p require a `broken()` override and
   `cloneRelink()` support -- avoid storing out-of-tree node pointers when possible.
+
 - Never allocate AstNode objects on the stack or by value -- always pointers.
+
 - Prefer a new `visit()` in an existing visitor over `nodep->foreach(...)` --
   better for runtime, and handles diverse node types better. Prefer named
   accessors over `op1p()`..`op4p()`, and verify traversal order is preserved
   when converting manual iteration.

 - Prefer `AstForeach` over generating unrolled loop bodies -- constant-size code
   instead of O(N); wrap the body in `AstBegin` for scope isolation.
+
 - Always `skipRefp()` when comparing or resolving dtypes -- missing it breaks
   typedef support; prove the paths with typedef tests.
+
 - Use `num().isOpaque()` rather than `isDouble() || isString()` when guarding
   V3Number comparisons against non-integer types.
+
 - Use `FileLine::operatorCompare` for source-position ordering -- never hand-roll
   filename/lineno comparisons.
+
 - Identify compiler-generated constructs by an attribute flag on the node (with
   dump support), never by name-pattern matching -- magic names break with escaped
   identifiers.
+
 - Use `V3Number` arithmetic for `AstConst` values wider than 32 bits -- `1 << i`
   silently overflows at `i >= 32`.
+
 - Use `VMemberMap`/`findMember()` for name lookups in structs, classes, modules,
   and packages -- O(1) versus quadratic linear scans.

 - Never emit raw source filenames or identifiers in generated code -- pass them

Subject: [PATCH 285/350] Optimize decoder case statements into lookup tables
 (#7795)

Recognize "decoder" case statements (where every case item only assigns
constants to a fixed set of left-hand sides) and replace them with a
single packed constant lookup table indexed by the case expression.
Small tables are materialized inline in the generated code, and are
always optimized. Larger ones are placed in the constant pool and only
optimized if deemed beneficial over branches.

While this slightly conflicts with V3Table, and is not worth that much
on it's own, there will be a follow up patch that converts more cases of
this form which will be much more valuable. This patch does the
necessary analysis and the simple table conversion when possible.

Split -fcase into -fcase-table (this new conversion) and -fcase-tree (the
existing bitwise branch-tree conversion); -fno-case is now an alias for
both.

Default branches, assignments preceding the case (used as default values),
casez wildcards, multiple and partial left-hand sides, and both blocking and
non-blocking assignments are handled. Cases that cannot be safely tabled (e.g.
non-exhaustive with no default, overlapping writes to one variable, or mixed
blocking/non-blocking assignments) fall back to the existing if/else lowering.

Consequently disabled re-inlining of constant pool variables in V3Const,
and rebuild the constant pool hash in V3Dead (previously we didn't
create constant pool entries early enough for this to matter)

Subject: [PATCH 293/350] Optimize wide decoder case statements into decoder
 expressions (#7804)

Extend the decoder-pattern case optimization to selectors that are too
wide for a full 2^width lookup table. A decoder-pattern case (where
every case item assigns constants to a fixed set of LHSs) is lowered to
a new AstMachMasked expression. AstMachMasked is emitted as a run-time
VL_MATCHMASKEd_* function call. It contains a packed constant pool table,
'matchp', which is a list of '(mask, bits)' pairs. At runtime, the index of the
first matching entry is returned, and is used to index a value table. This single
(albeit complicated) expression can replace large if-else trees whole, resulting
in much more compact code with fewer static hard to predict branches. It
is worth about 10% speed and 30% code size in some designs.

Example:

```systemverilog
    logic [39:0] sel;
    always_comb
      casez (sel)
        40'b???????????????????????????????????????1: out = 8'h01;
        40'b??????????????????????????????????????1?: out = 8'h02;
        40'b?????????????????????????????????????1??: out = 8'h03;
        default:                                      out = 8'hff;
      endcase
```

is compiled to:

```c++
    out = TABLE_value[VL_MATCHMASKED_Q(sel, CONST_match)];
```

Where 'CONST_match' contains 4 entries, of a 40-bit mask and 40-bit bit
pattern each, and 'TABLE_value' contains 4 entries of the corresponding
8-bit results. (Entries are aligned to word boundaries to avoid runtime
bit swizzling)

Subject: [PATCH 294/350] Optimize Dfg cycle breaking to do less work (#7210)

When a vertex is made acyclic, conservatively update the SCC map to
propagate and mark connected vertices as acyclic as much as possible.
This way we can stop early if the graph becomes acyclic after some
fixups. This can significantly reduce the number of fixups needing to be
applied, avoiding introducing redundancy.

Subject: [PATCH 302/350] Optimize generated function inlining (#7811)

Previously V3InlineCFuncs inlined call sites but never deleted the now
dead callees. Also missed a lot of opportunities due to evaluation order.

Rewrite using a graph based algorithm, using only a single traversal of
the netlist. This is clearer, more accurate, and faster at compile time.

Also add a clean -fno-inline-cfuncs disable. Setting the limits to 0
still disables inlining, except of empty functions, which can be inlined
with 0 limits (they are no ops). It will also prune unused functions
without -fno-inline-cfuncs.

Pass now also respects `--output-split`

Subject: [PATCH 305/350] Internals: Dump Ast expression pattern statistics
 like Dfg (#7818)

Remove the expression combination counts from the default stats file,
and add a new `--dump-ast-patterns` option, which will dump new
`*_ast_patterns_*.txt` files. These contain the expression combinations
in a similar S-expression format as Dfg already produces with
`--dump-dfg-stats`. These dumps are not produced by just `--stats` as
they are fairly expensive to compute. Currently the new option will dump
at two points: just before we change to C types via widthMin usage, and
just before emit.

Subject: [PATCH 307/350] Optimize staticly known oversize shifts (#7806)

The non *Ovr flavours of AstShift* have better downstream constant
folding, so keep using those if proven safe. Fold overshifts explicitly
instead of introducing *Ovr shifts.

Subject: [PATCH 323/350] Optimize bit-scan loops into $mostsetbitp1 /
 $countones (#7822)

Recognize the common single-bit scan loop idioms in V3Unroll (before it
unrolls) and lower them to bit-reduction primitives, replacing a literal
W-iteration loop with one intrinsic-backed expression:

  target=0; for (i=0;i<W;i++) if (vec[i]) target = i + 1;      -> $mostsetbitp1(vec)
  target=0; for (i=0;i<W;i++) if (vec[i]) target = target + 1; -> $countones(vec)

The leading-one form lowers to a new AstMostSetBitP1 node, emitted as
VL_MOSTSETBITP1_{I,Q,W}; those runtime helpers now use __builtin_clz where
available (same pattern as VL_REDXOR's __builtin_parity), with the existing
bit scan as fallback.  The count-ones form reuses AstCountOnes ($countones,
popcount); as the DFG requires a 32-bit countones result it is built at 32
bits and narrowed to the accumulator width with a select.

Matching is structural to stay sound: the index must start at 0, increment
by exactly 1, and scan all W==width(vec) bits via a single 1-bit select of a
distinct vector, with the target pre-zeroed and no else branch.  The loop
bound is accepted as a strict ascending 'idx < W' written either way and
signed or unsigned (Gt/GtS/Lt/LtS).  Gated by -fbit-scan-loops (on at -O).

Adds t_bit_scan_loops (I/Q/W, count-ones and unsigned-index positives;
step-2, start-1, idx*2+1, vec[idx+1], target=idx and W!=width negatives, all
self-checked and asserted via --stats not to lower) plus t_bit_scan_loops_off
for the disable flag.

Motivated by a transformer inference design whose 80-bit leading-one detector
ran every cycle (~37% of runtime); the lowering is worth ~39% there.

Subject: [PATCH 325/350] Fix scheduling of virtual interface method writes
 (#7641)

Fix scheduling of writes in virtual interfaces, there were missing triggers (see added test).

Make V3SchedVirtIface handle writes done inside methods called through a virtual interface. The pass first records direct vif.member writes, VIF method calls, and candidate interface member VarScopes. It then walks the methods reachable from those VIF calls, writes to persistent interface variables in those method bodies are treated as VIF writes, and nested calls are followed with the same interface context. Function locals, temps, and events are ignored because they are not persistent interface storage observable through a later VIF read. Triggers are still created only from the intersection of (interface type, member name) writes and matching VarScopes, so unrelated interface variables and interfaces with no virtual access do not get extra triggers.

Subject: [PATCH 333/350] Optimize module inlining heuristic (#7837)

Rewrite module inlining decision to be based on a bipartite Module/Cell
graph, similar to V3InlineCFuncs. Preserved all old heuristics, but
added 2 new ones:

- If a module, and all the sub-hierarchy below it, is less than 10% the
  total flattened size of the design, then flatten the contents of that
  module (but the module itself is not necessarily inlined).

- If the flattened size of all instances of a module is less than 20% of
  the total flattened size of the design, then inline all instances of
  that module.

These are both relative to the total size of the design, so they
auto-scale with complexity. The net effect is that large shared
instances are preserved, but their contents are flattened out. E.g. in a
multi-core CPU this would keep the cores non-inlined but flatten out
most everything else. This still enables V3Combining and sharing those
later, but avoids potentially big overheads e.g. with small widely used
library modules.

Empirically this yields less generated C++ than the previous version
(due to removing lots of small functions), and can improve performance
10-20% while still having meaningful combining relative to the size of
the design.
