vcddiff is a bit broken, and sometimes 'vcddiff a b' fails while the
files are indeed equivalent. There is a chance however that 'vcddif b a'
will succeed in this case, so compare trace files both ways when
checking test results and claim success if vcddiff succeeds in at least
one direction.
Set default value of --comp-limit-parens to 240, to respect default
maximum nesting of parentheses in clang (which is controlled by
-fbracket-depth and defaults to 256). For code generation consistency,
also use the same default with gcc.
* 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.
All remaining use of conditional compilation in the tracing
implementation of the run-time library are replaced with the use of
VerilatedModel::traceConfig, and is now done at run-time.
Always fail if adding a model to a trace file that has already executed
a dump. We used to do this before as well, though in a less robust way.
We will be relying on this property more in the future, so improve the
check.
Always build the FST libray with -DFST_WRITER_PARALLEL, iff VL_THREADED.
This supports run-time enablement of the FST writer thread, and has no
measurable performance impact on single threaded tracing but simplifies
the library build.
Note: the actual choice of using the fst writer thread is still compile
time, but can now be made run-time easily.
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.
Using unlinkFrBackWithNext is O(n) in the size of the list if unlinking
from the middle, so addHereThisAsNext also had this complexity. This
patch implements addHereThisAsNext directly, which is always O(1).
Use std::partial_sort for the non-exhaustive case. This is O(n) instead
of O(n*log(n)) in the size of the candidate list being sorted. (It
actually is O(n*log(k)), but k is constant 6 in the non-exhaustive
case).
* 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.
