This patch adds some abstract enums to pass to the trace decl* APIs, so
the VCD/FST specific code can be kept in verilated_{vcd,fst}_*.cc, and
removed from V3Emit*. It also reworks the generation of the trace init
functions (those that call 'decl*' for the signals) such that the scope
hierarchy is traversed precisely once during initialization, which
simplifies the FST writer. This later change also has the side effect of
fixing tracing of nested interfaces when traced via an interface
reference - see the change in the expected t_interface_ref_trace - which
previously were missed.
Some values emitted to the trace files are constant (e.g.: actual
parameter values), and never change. Previously we used to trace these
in the 'full' dumps, which also included all other truly variable
signals. This patch introduces a new generated trace function 'const',
to complement the 'full' and 'chg' flavour, and 'const' now only
contains the constant signals, while 'full' and 'chg' contain only the
truly variable signals. The generate 'full' and 'chg' trace functions
now have exactly the same shape. Note that 'const' signals are still
traced using the 'full*' dump methods of the trace buffers, so there is
no need for a third flavour of those.
Again --prof-exec have bit-rotted a little with all the recent changes
to the structure of the generated code. This patch contains a few
improvements:
- Repalce the eval/evl_loop begin/end events with generic
section_push/section_pop events, that can be arbitrarily sprinkled
into the generate code (so long as they are matched correctly) to
measure various sections. The report then contains a nested profile
of the sections, and the VCD trace shows the section names.
- Better handling of exec graphs
- Clearer overall statistics
Still some remains of the --threads 0 mode. Remove unnecessary complexity
from V3EmitCModel. (Also don't pretend there is an MTask in single
threaded mode, when there really isn't.)
It's unlikely one value fits all use case, so making VL_LOCK_SPINS
configurable at model build time.
For testing, we reduce the value as we expect high contention.
This API is used if the user copies the process using `fork`
and similar OS-level mechanisms. The `at_clone` member function
ensures that all model-allocated resources are re-allocated, such
that the copied child process/model can simulate correctly.
A typical allocated resource is the thread pool, which every model
has its own pool.
* Ignore CLion project files and CMake outputs
* Supporting stripping file path that contains backslash
* Set /bigobj flag and increase stack size for windows platform
* Fix MSVC warnings
* Add VL_ASSERT_CAPABILITY; add assumeLocked and pretendUnlock to V3Mutex.
* Pass jobs as template-arguments and use std::packaged_task.
* Add and use V3ThreadPool::ScopedExclusiveAccess.
Event-triggered coroutines live in two stages: 'uncommitted' and 'ready'. First
they land in 'uncommitted', meaning they can't be resumed yet. Only after
coroutines from the 'ready' queue are resumed, the 'uncommitted' ones are moved
to the 'ready' queue, and can be resumed. This is to avoid self-triggering in
situations like waiting for an event immediately after triggering it.
However, there is an issue with `wait` statements. If you have a `wait(b)`, it's
being translated into a loop that awaits a change in `b` as long as `b` is
false. If `b` is false at first, the coroutine is put into the `uncommitted`
queue. If `b` is set to true before it's committed, the coroutine won't get
resumed.
This patch fixes that by immediately committing event controls created from
`wait` statements. That means the coroutine from the example above will get
resumed from now on.
Pack the elements of VlTriggerVec as dense bits (instead of a 1 byte
bool per bit), and check whether they are set on a word granularity.
This effectively transforms conditions of the form `if (trig.at(0) |
trig.at(2) | trig.at(64))` into `if (trig.word(0) & 0x5 | trig.word(1) &
0x1)`. This improves OpenTitan ST by about 1%, worth more on some other
designs.
`VlNow{}` is completely unnecessary, as coroutines are always on the
heap (unless optimized out). Also fix access of var ref passed to forked processes.
1. Fixes passing a null reference as a task argument. Before this patch it would
cause a C++ compile error like `cannot convert ‘VlNull’ to ‘VlClassRef<...>’`.
2. Fixes passing a class reference as a task argument when the argument is a
reference to a base class. Before the patch it would cause a C++ compile
error like `cannot convert ‘VlClassRef<{DERIVED_CLASS}>’ to ‘VlClassRef<{BASE_CLASS}>`.
