A separate V3VariableOrder pass is now used to order module variables
before Emit. All variables are now ordered together, without
consideration for whether they are ports, signals form the design, or
additional internal variables added by Verilator (which used to be
ordered and emitted as separate groups in Emit). For single threaded
models, this is performance neutral. For multi-threaded models, the
MTask affinity based sorting was slightly modified, so variables with no
MTask affinity are emitted last, otherwise the MTask affinity sets are
sorted using the TSP sorter as before, but again, ports, signals, and
internal variables are not differentiated. This yields a 2%+ speedup for
the multithreaded model on OpenTitan.
* 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.
