Fix compile error for queue method usage, if it is the
first statement in a block of code, and the return
value is not used. Example:
> if (foo)
> void'(bar.pop_front());
* Tests: Add a test to reproduce #3399
* Fix#3399. When reading an inout port in a module, it should refer the
original inout port, not the generated MODTEMP.
* Tests: Add a test to reproduce #3509
* Tests: Compile without tautological-compare check because bit op tree optimization is disabled in the test.
* Internals: Dedup code. No functional change is intended.
* Fix#3509.
"2'b10 == (2'b11 & {1'b0, val[0]})" and "2'b10 != (2'b11 & {1'b0, val[0]})" were
wrongly optimized to "!val[0]" and "val[0]" respectively.
Now properly optimize them to 1'b0 and 1'b1.
* Commentary
* Commentary: Update Changes
These have been 'deprecated' for 2 years and are otherwise unused except
for using a temporary placeholder value, which I have inlined with the
default value.
Also remove the now VL_TIME_STR_CONVERT utility function (and
corresponding unit tests), which have no references in any project on
GitHub.
Associative arrays that specify a wildcard index type may be indexed by
integral expressions of any size, with leading zeros removed
automatically. A natural representation for such expressions is a
string, especially that the standard explicitly specifies automatic
casts from string indices to bit vectors of equivalent size.
The automatic cast part is done implicitly by the existing type system.
A simpler way to just make this work would be to convert wildcard index
type to a string type directly in the parser code, but several new AST
classes are needed to make sure illegal method calls are detected.
The verilated data structure implementation is reused, because there is
no need for differentiating the behavior on C++ side.
Step towards a proper run-time library. Reduce the amount of ifdefs in
the implementation of offloaded tracing. There are still a very small
number of ifdefs left, which will need more careful changes in order to
keep user API compatibility.
* Tests: Add a test to reproduce #3470
* Update LSB during return path of traversal. No functional change is intended.
* Introduce LeafInfo::m_msb
* Update LeafInfo::m_msb when visitin AstCCast
* Internals: Add comment, reorder. No functional change is intended.
* Delete explicit from copy constructor to fix build error.
* Update Changes
* Internals: Remove unused parameter. No functional change is intended.
* Tests: Add explanation to t_const_opt.
* Tests: Check BitOpTree statistics in t_const_opt.
* Tests: Add a test to reproduce #3445
* Fix#3445. Don't forget LSB of frozen node in BitOpTreeOpt.
* Apply suggestions from code review

V3MergeCond merges consecutive conditional `_ = cond ? _ : _` and
`if (cond) ...` statements. This patch adds an analysis and ordering
phase that moves statements with identical conditions closer to each
other, in order to enable more merging opportunities. This in turn
eliminates a lot of repeated conditionals which reduced dynamic branch
count and branch misprediction rate. Observed 6.5% improvement on
multi-threaded large designs, at the cost of less than 2% increase in
Verilation speed.
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
Some cases of warnings about the use of blocking and non-blocking
assignments in combinational vs sequential processes were suppressed in
a way that is inconsistent with the *actual* current execution model of
Verilator. Turning these back on to, well, warn the user that these might
cause unexpected results. V5 will clean these up, but until then err on
the side of caution.
Fixes#864.
At the end of V3Param, fix up the module list to be topologically
sorted. We need to do this at the end as a later instantiation of a
recursive module might instantiate an earlier specialization, which we
cannot know until we processed everything. The rest of the compiler
depends on the module list being topologically sorted.
Fixes#3393
Rename AstNodeModule::hierName -> someInstanceName and explain that this
is only used for user messages.
Rename AstNode::locationStr -> instanceStr and simplify implementation.
In particular, do not report an instance if we can't find a reasonable
guess.
The --prof-threads option has been split into two independent options:
1. --prof-exec, for collecting verilator_gantt and other execution
related profiling data, and
2. --prof-pgo, for collecting data needed for PGO
The implementation of execution profiling is extricated from
VlThreadPool and is now a separate class VlExecutionProfiler. This means
--prof-exec can now be used for single-threaded models (though it does
not measure a lot of things just yet). For consistency VerilatedProfiler
is renamed VlPgoProfiler. Both VlExecutionProfiler and VlPgoProfiler are
in verilated_profiler.{h/cpp}, but can be used completely independently.
Also re-worked the execution profile format so it now only emits events
without holding onto any temporaries. This is in preparation for some
future optimizations that would be hindered by the introduction of function
locals via AstText.
Also removed the Barrier event. Clearing the profile buffers is not
notably more expensive as the profiling records are trivially
destructible.
