Instead of installing redirect scripts in to bindir, and real
executables in to pkgdatadir/bin, we now put the real executables into
bindir, and add redirect scripts into pkgdatadir/bin. (That is, we
redirect in the opposite direction as before).
This enables the same relocatable and testable installations as before
without putting architecture specific binaries into pkgdatadir, so
hopefully we now conform to the Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard.
This requires a small fixup in the installed `verilator` script to
hardcode the relative path between bindir and pkgdatadir.
Fixes#5140
An ordering constraint between NBA commit blocks ('Post' logic) and the
written variable were previously added as soft constraints (cutable
edges). However these are required for correctness, so if it ever is
cut we will have incorrect simulation results.
Change these into hard constraints instead. This necessitates adding a
flag on AstVar to ignore special variables constructed during V3Delayed
that might otherwise appear as degenerate logic loops. E.g.:
if (VdlySet) {
VdlySet = 0; // <- This write to VdlySet can and must be ignored
LHS = VdlyVal;
}
No functional change, but you might get an error if this constraint was
ever violated. (Theoretically it should never be, as these variables
were inserted in a way that does not require violating these constraints
...)
* Refactor V3Delay for extensibility
Introduce the concept of an "NBA Scheme", which is the lowering pattern
we can use for various variables that are the targets of NBAs.
E.g.:
- ShadowVariable (old default scheme)
- FlagShared (old array set flag scheme)
- ValueQueueWhole (recent dynamic commit queue)
We now analyse all AstAssignDly before making any decisions on which
scheme to apply. We then choose a specific scheme for each variable that
is the target of an NBA, and then all NBAs targeting that variable use
the same scheme. This enables easy mix and match of schemes as needed,
while remaining consistent by design after extensions.
Output is perturbed due to node insertion order, but no functional
or performance change is intended.
