There were a couple corner case bugs in V3Inline, and one in Dfg when
dealing with inlining of modules/variables.
V3Inline:
- Invalid code generated when inlining an input that also had an
assignment to it (Throws an ASSIGNIN, but this is sometimes reasonable
to do, e.g. hiererchical reference to an unonnected input port)
- Inlining (aliasing) publicly writeable input port.
- Inlining forcable port connected to constant.
Dfg:
- Inining publicly writeable variables
The tests that cover these are the same and fixing one will trigger the
other bug, so fixing them all in one go. Also cleanup V3Inline to be less
out of order and rely less on unique APIs only used by V3Inine (will
remove those in follow up patch).
Small step towards #6280.
This patch enforces the use of the most specific accessors for operands
which have an '@astgen alias' declaration, by making the superclass
accessors of the same operands private. This ensures client code is
cleaner as you can't use multiple different methods to reference the
same operands (which we used to in some places). Also prep for some
refactoring.
Apart from the representational changes below, this patch renames
AstNodeMath to AstNodeExpr, and AstCMath to AstCExpr.
Now every expression (i.e.: those AstNodes that represent a [possibly
void] value, with value being interpreted in a very general sense) has
AstNodeExpr as a super class. This necessitates the introduction of an
AstStmtExpr, which represents an expression in statement position, e.g :
'foo();' would be represented as AstStmtExpr(AstCCall(foo)). In exchange
we can get rid of isStatement() in AstNodeStmt, which now really always
represent a statement
Peak memory consumption and verilation speed are not measurably changed.
Partial step towards #3420
- Rename `--dump-treei` option to `--dumpi-tree`, which itself is now a
special case of `--dumpi-<tag>` where tag can be a magic word, or a
filename
- Control dumping via static `dump*()` functions, analogous to `debug()`
- Make dumping independent of the value of `debug()` (so dumping always
works even without the debug flag)
- Add separate `--dumpi-graph` for dumping V3Graphs, which is again a
special case of `--dumpi-<tag>`
- Alias `--dump-<tag>` to `--dumpi-<tag> 3` as before
