* EmitXml: Added <ccall>, <constpool>, <initarray>/<inititem>, wrapped children of <if> and <while> with <begin> elements to prevent ambiguity
* EmitXml: added signed="true" to signed basicdtypes
This patch implements #3032. Verilator creates a module representing the
SystemVerilog $root scope (V3LinkLevel::wrapTop). Until now, this was
called the "TOP" module, which also acted as the user instantiated model
class. Syms used to hold a pointer to this root module, but hold
instances of any submodule. This patch renames this root scope module
from "TOP" to "$root", and introduces a separate model class which is
now an interface class. As the root module is no longer the user
interface class, it can now be made an instance of Syms, just like any
other submodule. This allows absolute references into the root module to
avoid an additional pointer indirection resulting in a potential speedup
(about 1.5% on OpenTitan). The model class now also contains all non
design specific generated code (e.g.: eval loops, trace config, etc),
which additionally simplifies Verilator internals.
Please see the updated documentation for the model interface changes.
What previously used to be per module static constants created in
V3Table and V3Prelim are now merged globally within the whole model and
emitted as part of a separate constant pool. Members of the constant
pool are global variables which are declared lazily when used (similar to
loose methods).
* Add VL_OVERRIDE macro so that compiler can tell my typo when trying to override a function.
* Mark visit() with VL_OVERRIDE. No functional change intended.
* Add detailed location to XML output
* Fixing build failures
* less cryptic regulary expressions
* correcting typo in test
* Adding file letter to the location attribute, and cleaning up the regular expression in the tests.
* Add remaining test expected output files for XML changes
* spacing fix, adding documentation on changes
* Add more directives to configuration files
Allow to set the same directives in configuration files that can also
be set by comment attributes (such as /* verilator public */ etc).
* Add support for lint messsage waivers
Add configuration file switch '-match' for lint_off. It takes a string
with wildcards allowed and warnings will be matched against it (if
rule and file also match). If it matches, the warning is waived.
