Prep for fixing test added in #7913.
This is a large scale no functional change refactor, however, MT output
is perturbed as tied scores will be broken differently due to ordering
changes (still deterministic).
Split multi-threaded scheduling out of the monolithic
V3OrderParallel.cpp, into relatively independent parts, simplify the
data structures, and drop redundant or unused code.
New translation units:
- V3OrderMTaskGraph.h/.cpp: OrderMTaskGraph, the graph of LogicMTask
vertices and MTaskEdge edges. LogicMTask and MTaskEdge no longer
depend on the coarsening algorithm's merge candidate types;
per-algorithm auxiliary data is attached externally via the vertex and
edge user pointers.
- V3OrderMTaskFixHazards.cpp: data hazard fixup, was FixDataHazards.
- V3OrderMTaskContraction.cpp: graph coarsening, was Partitioner
together with PropagateCp and the merge candidate types.
- V3OrderParallel.cpp: now just the partitioning driver and ExecMTask
graph construction.
Data structure changes:
- Delete V3Scoreboard.h/.cpp. The generic template had a single user, now
a file-local MergeCandidateScoreboard in V3OrderMTaskContraction.cpp.
- Merge candidates are now MergeCandidate/SiblingMC/EdgeMC, distinguished
by a bit in the candidate id rather than by a vtable, and allocated by
the scoreboard, which owns their lifetime. This removes the multiple
inheritance previously used by MTaskEdge.
Move `hashGraphDebug` which prints the hash of a graph's shape for debugging
to generic `V3Graph::hashGraphDebug`.
Removed (can be added back later):
- Unnecesasry self tests that force special data stucture requirements.
- Per stage --stats output under --debug. (Final figures still reported.)
- Various debug dumps
Removed the VlTriggerVec type, and refactored to use an unpacked array
of 64-bit words instead. This means the trigger vector and its
operations are now the same as for any other unpacked array. The few
special functions required for operating on a trigger vector are now
generated in V3SchedTrigger as regular AstCFunc if needed.
No functional change intended, performance should be the same.
The AstIf nodes conditional on events being triggered used to be created
in V3Clock. Now it is in V3Sched*, in order to avoid having to pass
AstActive in CFunc or MTask bodies. No functional change intended, some
improved optimization due to simplifying timing triggers that were
previously missed, also fixes what seems like a bug in the original
timing commit code.
Continuing the idea of decoupling the implementations of the various algorithms.
The main points:
-Move the former "processDomain" stuff, dealing with assigning combinational logic into the relevant sensitivity domains into V3OrderProcessDomains.cpp
-Move the parallel code construction in V3OrderParallel.cpp (Could combine this with some parts of V3Partition - those not called from V3Partition::finalize - but that's not for this patch).
-Move the serial code construction into V3OrderSerial.cpp
-Factored the very small common code between the parallel and serial code construction (processMoveOneLogic) into V3OrderCFuncEmitter.cpp
Move OrderBuildVisitor into V3OrderGraphBuilder.cpp (and rename to
V3OrderGraphBuilder). Move ProcessMoveBuildGraph to
V3OrderMoveGraphBuilder.cpp (and rename to V3OrderGraphBuilder).
This patch is pure code movement/rename, no refactoring at all.
The typical find/if-not-exists-insert pattern can be achieved with 1
lookup instead of 2 using emplace with a sentinel value. Also maps value
initialize their values when inserted with the [] operator, this is
defined and so there is no need to explicitly insert zeroes for integer
values.
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
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
- Rename `--dump-treei` option to `--dumpi-tree`, which itself is now a
special case of `--dumpi-<tag>` where tag can be a magic word, or a
filename
- Control dumping via static `dump*()` functions, analogous to `debug()`
- Make dumping independent of the value of `debug()` (so dumping always
works even without the debug flag)
- Add separate `--dumpi-graph` for dumping V3Graphs, which is again a
special case of `--dumpi-<tag>`
- Alias `--dump-<tag>` to `--dumpi-<tag> 3` as before
Introduce the @astgen directives parsed by astgen, currently used for
the generation child node (operand) accessors. Please see the updated
internal documentation for details.
