Combined the 3 various APIs used in EmitC* passes to handle file
opening/splitting into a single one. This removes a lot of copy paste
and makes everything consistent.
All C++ file handling goes through `EmitCBaseVisitor` using the
`openNewOutputHeaderFile`, `openNewOutputSourceFile` and
`closOutputFile` methods.
To emit a new kind of file, always derive a new class from
`EmitCBaseVisitor`, and use the above APIs, they will take care of
everything else in a consistent matter.
Subsequently also removed V3OutSCFile, and instead included
verilated_sc.h (which included the systemc header itself) in the two
files that need it (the primary model header, and the root module
header).
Functional changes:
- The PCH header did not use to have a corresponding AstCFile. Now it
does, though this makes no difference in the output
- All 'slow' sources now have '__Slow' in the name automatically (the
only one missing was for the ConstPool files)
Rest of the output is identical except for the header line now being
present in all generated C++ files.
Added cppcheck-suppressions.txt in the repo root. You can add new
patterns in there instead of having to parse the XML output.
Also configure to add the -D__GNUC__ preprocessor macro, which makes it
understand UASSERT (it understands the 'noreturn' function attribute).
Added some case by case specific suppressions and fixed up other code,
especially in V3Ast*h and V3Dfg*.h, including code generated by astgen
that had some no-ops that irks cppcheck.
One thing it does not seem to like is `const` class members with default
initializers in the class. It will assume that's always the value, even
if overridden in the constructor. We had few so removed them.
With that a lot of files in `src/` are now clean or only have a handful
of issues. Therefore, I have also deleted cppcheck_filtered, and made it
produce human readable output straight to the terminal.
Regarding cleaning up the reported nits, I kind of got bored after
V3[A-E] so pausing here. Apologies for the merge conflicts.
Tested with cppcheck 2.13.0
- 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
The _CONST suffix on these macros is only lexical notation, pointer
constness can be preserved by overloading the underlying
implementations appropriately. Given that the compiler will catch
invalid const usage (trying to assign a non-const pointer to a const
pointer variable, etc.), and that the declarations of symbols should
make their constness obvious, I see no reason to keep the _CONST
flavours.
What previously used to be per module static constants created in
V3Table and V3Prelim are now merged globally within the whole model and
emitted as part of a separate constant pool. Members of the constant
pool are global variables which are declared lazily when used (similar to
loose methods).
