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.
Since we removed --threads 0 support, the 'threads()' option always
returns a value >= 1. Remove corresponding dead code.
Some of the coverage counters appear to use atomics even if the model is
single threaded. I'm under the impression this was a bug originally so
those ones I changed to use threads() > 1 instead.
This API is used if the user copies the process using `fork`
and similar OS-level mechanisms. The `at_clone` member function
ensures that all model-allocated resources are re-allocated, such
that the copied child process/model can simulate correctly.
A typical allocated resource is the thread pool, which every model
has its own pool.
This change introduces a custom reference-counting pointer class that
allows creating such pointers from 'this'. This lets us keep the
receiver object around even if all references to it outside of a class
method no longer exist. Useful for coroutine methods, which may outlive
all external references to the object.
The deletion of objects is deferred until the next time slot. This is to
make clearing the triggered flag on named events in classes safe
(otherwise freed memory could be accessed).
- 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
Small fixup patch so the 'ico' and 'act' scheduling sections could be
ordered as multi-threaded. However, we still only order these single
threaded at the moment (but switching them to multi-threaded now works).
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.
