These are no longer required for correct scheduling. They are still
accepted for backward compatibility, but have no effect on simulation
and are dropped in the front-end. Also removed the then redundant
AstAlwaysPublic class.
Fixes#6442
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
* Support 2D dynamic array initialization (#4700)
- new[] on sub arrays (as per original issue)
- Built-in methods for sub-arrays
- Initialization and literals assignmensts
- Dynamic array as an element for other arrays and queues
Apart from the representational changes below, this patch renames
AstNodeMath to AstNodeExpr, and AstCMath to AstCExpr.
Now every expression (i.e.: those AstNodes that represent a [possibly
void] value, with value being interpreted in a very general sense) has
AstNodeExpr as a super class. This necessitates the introduction of an
AstStmtExpr, which represents an expression in statement position, e.g :
'foo();' would be represented as AstStmtExpr(AstCCall(foo)). In exchange
we can get rid of isStatement() in AstNodeStmt, which now really always
represent a statement
Peak memory consumption and verilation speed are not measurably changed.
Partial step towards #3420
This is a major re-design of the way code is scheduled in Verilator,
with the goal of properly supporting the Active and NBA regions of the
SystemVerilog scheduling model, as defined in IEEE 1800-2017 chapter 4.
With this change, all internally generated clocks should simulate
correctly, and there should be no more need for the `clock_enable` and
`clocker` attributes for correctness in the absence of Verilator
generated library models (`--lib-create`).
Details of the new scheduling model and algorithm are provided in
docs/internals.rst.
Implements #3278
