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
The cost of an AstCMethodHard right now is generally unknown. However,
VlTriggerVec::at is used a lot in conditions, so we make an effort
to estimate this correctly via 2 changes:
- In general when an AstVarRef appears as the target of an
AstCMethodHard, we cost it as a simple address computation (an add)
- Check for VlTriggerVec::at explicitly when costing AstCMethodHard,
which is essentially a load.
This can have a significant effect when there are a lot of unique
triggers in the design.
Use the same style, and reuse the bulk of astgen to generate DfgVertex
related code. In particular allow for easier definition of custom
DfgVertex sub-types that do not directly correspond to an AstNode
sub-type. Also introduces specific names for the fixed arity vertices.
No functional change intended.
Use astgen to generate a more thorough version of AstNode::checkTree,
which checks that operands are or consistent structure and type, as
described in the @astgen op directives. Also change checkTree to always
run when --debug-check is given.
Fix discovered fallout.
Introduce the @astgen directives parsed by astgen, currently used for
the generation child node (operand) accessors. Please see the updated
internal documentation for details.

- Move DType representations into V3AstNodeDType.h
- Move AstNodeMath and subclasses into V3AstNodeMath.h
- Move any other AstNode subtypes into V3AstNodeOther.h
- Fix up out-of-order definitions via inline methods and implementations
in V3Inlines.h and V3AstNodes.cpp
- Enforce declaration order of AstNode subtypes via astgen,
which will now fail when definitions are mis-ordered.
