Instead of using the number of processors in the host, use the number of
processors available to the process, respecting cpu affinity
assignments. Without pthreads, fall back and use the number of
processors in the host as before.
This is now applied everywhere so runing `nuamctl -C 0-3 verilator` or
`numactl -C 0-3 Vsim` should behave as if the host has 4 cores (e.g.
like in CI jobs)
Used to fail with "can't use --exe with --lib-create", and we didn't
have any tests for it before. (The equivalent --main --exe --build
--timing works)
Add V3SchedUtil.cpp that contains common small utility functions.
Add V3SchedTrigger.cpp that contains functionality building the trigger
mechanism code.
No functional change, just code movement. Prep for some further work.
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.
sched_forks.tree used to be dumped before sched.tree, while it's
basically after, so move transformForks in to a separate pass. Also
extract inlined visitors in V3SchedTiming.
Accessing the ports of hier_block instances directly under the current
hier_block (or top level) work just fine (the heir stub .sv has them),
and this can simplify hooking up dotted references into hier blocks:
push part of the reference under the hier block into the hier block, and
wire it to a port, then resolve the rest of the reference to the port of
the instance.
Cache already traced vertices and reuse them on subsequent traces. This
avoids a potential combinatorial explosion in the size of the resulting
circuit.
Internals: Refactor AstNodeBlock representation (#6280)
AstNodeBlock now has 2 child lists: 'declsp' to hold declarations within
the block, and 'stmtsp' to hold the procedural statements.
AstBegin is then just a simple subtype of AstNodeBlock.
AstFork is a proper superset of AstNodeBlock (and also AstBegin), and
adds 'forksp' which hold the parallel statements. Having the sequential
'stmtsp' in AstFork is required to properly implement variable
initializers in fork blocks (IEEE 1800-2023 9.3.2), this makes that
clear, while also separating the non AstNodeStmt declarations
(for #6280). The actual fork branches in 'AstFork::forkps()' are all
AstBegin nodes. This is required as lowering stages will introduce
additional statements in each parallel branch. (We used to wrap AstFork
statements into AstBegin in 3 different places, now they always are
AstBegin and this is enforced via the type checker/V3Broken).
Also fixes incorrect disabling of forked processes from within the `fork`.
- Delete 'finalsp'. It was used in one place, basically unnecessary and
safe to remove.
- Make 'argsp' a 'List[AstVar]'. This held before. It holds the function
argument and return variables.
- Replace 'intitsp' with 'varsp' and make it into 'List[AstVar]' to hold
the function local variables. This was most of its use before. The few
places we inserted statements here now moved into 'stmtsp' by
inserting at the front of the list.
