This patch implements #6480. All loop statements are represented using
AstLoop and AstLoopTest.
This necessitates rework of the loop unroller to handle loops of
arbitrary form. To enable this, I have split the old unroller used for
'generate for' statements and moved it into V3Param, and subsequently
rewrote V3Unroll to handle the new representation. V3Unroll can now
unroll more complex loops, including with loop conditions containing
multiple variable references or inlined functions.
Handling the more generic code also requires some restrictions. If a
loop contains any of the following, it cannot be unrolled:
- A timing control that might suspend the loop
- A non-inlined call to a non-pure function
These constructs can change the values of variables in the loop, so are
generally not safe to unroll if they are present. (We could still unroll
if all the variables needed for unrolling are automatic, however we
don't do that right now.)
These restrictions seem ok in the benchmark suite, where the new
unroller can generally unroll many more loops than before.
Rename AstAssignAlias to AstAlias and make it derive from AstNode
instead of AstNodeStmt.
Replace AstAlias with AstAssignW in V3LinkDot::linkDotScope, which is
the last place we need to be aware of the alias construct. Using
AstAssignW dowstream enables further optimization while preserving the
same functionality.
Added cppcheck-suppressions.txt in the repo root. You can add new
patterns in there instead of having to parse the XML output.
Also configure to add the -D__GNUC__ preprocessor macro, which makes it
understand UASSERT (it understands the 'noreturn' function attribute).
Added some case by case specific suppressions and fixed up other code,
especially in V3Ast*h and V3Dfg*.h, including code generated by astgen
that had some no-ops that irks cppcheck.
One thing it does not seem to like is `const` class members with default
initializers in the class. It will assume that's always the value, even
if overridden in the constructor. We had few so removed them.
With that a lot of files in `src/` are now clean or only have a handful
of issues. Therefore, I have also deleted cppcheck_filtered, and made it
produce human readable output straight to the terminal.
Regarding cleaning up the reported nits, I kind of got bored after
V3[A-E] so pausing here. Apologies for the merge conflicts.
Tested with cppcheck 2.13.0
Remove AstJumpLabel
AstJumpGo now references one if its enclosing AstJumpBlocks, and
branches straight after the referenced block.
That is:
```
JumpBlock a {
...
JumpGo(a);
...
}
// <--- the JumpGo(a) goes here
```
This is sufficient for all use cases and makes control flow much easier to
reason about. As a result, V3Const can optimize a bit more aggressively.
Second half of, and fixes#6216
