Verilator 5.002 2022-10-29
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* This is a major new release.
|
|
* Require C++20 for the new --timing features. Upgrading to a C++20 or
|
|
newer compiler is strongly recommended.
|
|
* Support the Active and NBA scheduling regions as defined by the
|
|
SystemVerilog standard (IEEE 1800-2017 chapter 4). This means all generated
|
|
clocks are now simulated correctly (#3278, #3384). [Geza Lore, Shunyao CAD]
|
|
* Support timing controls (delays, event controls in any location, wait
|
|
statements) and forks. [Krzysztof Bieganski, Antmicro Ltd]
|
|
This may require adding --timing or --no-timing. See docs for details.
|
|
* Introduce a new combinational logic optimizer (DFG), that can yield
|
|
significant performance improvements on some designs. [Geza Lore, Shunyao CAD]
|
|
* Add --binary option as alias of --main --exe --build --timing (#3625).
|
|
For designs where C++ was only used to make a simple no-I/O testbench, we
|
|
recommend abandoning that C++, and instead letting Verilator build it
|
|
with --binary (or --main).
|
|

Verilator 4.210 2021-07-07
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Generated code is now emitted as global functions rather than methods. '$c'

|
|
object and no longer the TOP module instance. User code with direct
|
|
C++ member access to model internals, including verilator public_flat
|
|
items will likely need to be updated. See the manual for instructions:

|
|
support pre-C++11 compilers. Please move to C++11 or newer compilers.

|
|
iff the --output-split caused an actual file split to
|
|
occur. --output-split-cfuncs and --output-split-ctrace now default to
|
|
the value of --output-split. These changes should improve build times of
|
|
medium and large designs with default options. User makefiles may require
|
|
changes.
|
|

|
VL_TIME_MULTIPLIER, VL_TIME_PRECISION, VL_TIME_UNIT have been removed
|
|
and the time precision must now match the SystemC time precision. To
|
|
get closer behavior to older versions, use e.g. --timescale-override
|
|
"1ps/1ps".
|

|
Verilator 3.510 2005-12-17 Stable
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Improve trace-on performance on large multi-clock designs by 2x or more.
|
|
This adds a small ~2% performance penalty if traces are compiled in,
|
|
but not turned on. For best non-tracing performance, do not use --trace.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix $'s in specify delays causing bad PLI errors. [Mat Zeno]
|
|
* Fix public functions not setting up proper symbol table. [Mat Zeno]

**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix local non-IO variables in public functions and tasks.
|
|
* Fix bad lifetime optimization when same signal is assigned multiple
|
|
times in both branch of an if. [Danny Ding]
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
* Support multi-dimensional arrays. [Eugen Fekete]
|
|
* Support very limited Property Specification Language
|
|
(aka PSL or Sugar). The format and keywords are now very limited, but will
|
|
grow with future releases. The --assert switch enables this feature.
|
|
* With --assert, generate assertions for synthesis parallel_case and full_case.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix generate if's with empty if/else blocks. [Mat Zeno]

Verilator 3.480 2005-09-27 Beta
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Allow coverage of flattened modules, and multiple points per line.
|
|
Coverage analysis requires SystemPerl 1.230 or newer.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|

===============================
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix compile error with older versions of bison. [Jeff Dutton]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.460 2005-07-27 Beta
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Add -output-split option to enable faster parallel GCC compiles.
|
|
To support --output-split, the makefiles now split VM_CLASSES
|
|
into VM_CLASSES_FAST and VM_CLASSES_SLOW. This may require a
|
|
change to local makefiles.
|
|
* Support -v argument to read library files.
|
|
|

|
* Fix core dump when missing newline in `define. [David van der Bokke]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.450 2005-07-12
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* $finish will no longer exit, but set Verilated::gotFinish().
|
|
This enables support for final statements, and for other cleanup code.
|
|
If this is undesired, redefine the vl_user_finish routine. Top level
|
|
loops should use Verilated::gotFinish() as an exit condition for their
|
|
loop, and then call top->final(). To prevent an infinite loop, a double
|
|
$finish will still exit; this may be removed in future releases.
|
|
* Support SystemVerilog keywords $bits, $countones, $isunknown,
|
|
$onehot, $onehot0, always_comb, always_ff, always_latch, finish.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix "=== 1'bx" to always be false, instead of random.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix selection bugs introduced in 3.430 beta.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
* Add error message when multiple defaults in case statement.
|
|
* Optimize shifts out of conditionals and if statements.
|
|
* Optimize local 'short' wires.
|
|
* Fix case defaults when not last statement in case list. [Ralf Karge]
|
|

* Fix compile error in GCC 2.96. [Jeff Dutton]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.410 2005-05-25 Beta
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Allow functions and tasks to be declared public.
|
|
They will become public C++ functions, with appropriate C++ types.
|
|
This allows users to make public accessor functions/tasks, instead
|
|
of having to use public variables and `systemc_header hacks.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Skip producing output files if all inputs are identical
|
|
This uses timestamps, similar to make. Disable with --no-skip-identical.
|
|
* Improved compile performance with large case statements.
|
|
* Fix internal error in V3Table. [Jeff Dutton]
|
|
* Fix compile error in GCC 2.96, and with SystemC 1.2. [Jeff Dutton]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.400 2005-04-29 Beta
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Internal changes to support future clocking features.
|
|
* Verilog-Perl and SystemPerl are no longer required for C++ or SystemC
|
|
output. If you want tracing or coverage analysis, they are still needed.
|
|
* Add --sc to create pure SystemC output not requiring SystemPerl.
|
|
* Add --pins64 to create 64 bit SystemC outputs instead of sc_bv<64>.
|
|
* The --exe flag is now required to produce executables inside the makefile.
|
|
This was previously the case any time .cpp files were passed on the
|
|
command line.
|
|
* Add -O3 and --inline-mult for performance tuning. [Ralf Karge]
|
|
One experiment regained 5% performance, at a cost of 300% in compile time.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Improved performance of large case/always statements with low fanin
|
|
by converting to internal lookup tables (ROMs).

|
|
* Fix crash with size mismatches on case items. [Gernot Koch]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.340 2005-02-18 Stable
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Report misconnected pins across all modules, instead of just first error.
|
|
* Improved large netlist compile times.
|
|
* Fix over-active inlining, resulting in compile slowness.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.332 2005-01-27

|
|
|
* Add -E preprocess only flag, similar to GCC.
|
|
* Add CMPCONSTLR when comparison is constant due to > or < with all ones.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**

|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.331 2005-01-18
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* The Verilog::Perl preprocessor is now C++ code inside of Verilator.
|
|
This improves performance, makes compilation easier, and enables
|
|
some future features.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Support arrays of instantiations (non-primitives only). [Wim Michiels]
|
|
* Fix unlinked error with defparam. [Shawn Wang]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.320 2004-12-10
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* NEWS is now renamed Changes, to support CPAN indexing.
|
|
* If Verilator is passed a C file, create a makefile link rule.
|
|
This saves several user steps when compiling small projects.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Add new COMBDLY warning in place of fatal error. [Shawn Wang]
|
|
* Fix mis-simulation with wide-arrays under bit selects. [Ralf Karge]
|
|
* Add NC Verilog as alternative to VCS for reference tests.
|
|
* Support implicit wire declarations on input-only signals.
|
|
(Dangerous, as leads to wires without drivers, but allowed by spec.)
|
|
* Fix compile warnings on Suse 9.1

|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* New backend that eliminates most VL macros.
|
|
Improves performance 20%-50%, depending on frequency of use of signals
|
|
over 64 bits. GCC compile times with -O2 shrink by a factor of 10.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix "setting unsigned int from signed value" warning.
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.260 2004-10-07
|
|
==========================
|
|

|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Support Verilog 2001 named parameter instantiation. [Ralf Karge]

|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.251 2004-09-09
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix parenthesis overflow in Microsoft Visual C++ [Renga Sundararajan]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.250 2004-08-30
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Support Microsoft Visual C++ [Renga Sundararajan]
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* SystemPerl 1.161+ is required.

|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Support ,'s to separate multiple assignments. [Paul Nitza]
|
|
* Fix shift sign extension problem using non-GCC compilers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.240 2004-08-13
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Verilator now uses 64 bit math where appropriate.
|
|
Inputs and outputs of 33-64 bits wide to the C++ Verilated model must
|
|
now be uint64_t's; SystemC has not changed, they will remain sc_bv's.
|
|
This increases performance by ~ 9% on x86 machines, varying with how
|
|
frequently 33-64 bit signals occur. Signals 9-16 bits wide are now
|
|
stored as 16 bit shorts instead of longs, this aids cache packing.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix SystemC compile error with feedthrus. [Paul Nitza]
|
|
* Fix concat value error introduced in 3.230.

**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Add coverage output to test_sp example, SystemPerl 1.160+ is required.
|
|
* Fix time 0 value of signals. [Hans Van Antwerpen]
|
|
Earlier versions would not evaluate some combinatorial signals
|
|
until posedge/negedge blocks had been activated.
|
|
* Fix wide constant inputs to public submodules [Hans Van Antwerpen]
|
|
* Fix wide signal width extension bug.
|
|
Only applies when width mismatch warnings were overridden.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.220 2004-06-22
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Many waveform tracing changes:
|
|
* Tracing is now supported on C++ standalone simulations. [John Brownlee]
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* When tracing, SystemPerl 1.150 or newer is required.
|
|
* When tracing, Verilator must be called with the --trace switch.
|
|
* Add SystemPerl example to documentation. [John Brownlee]
|
|
* Various Cygwin compilation fixes. [John Brownlee]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.210 2004-04-01
|
|
==========================

* With Verilog-Perl 2.3 or newer, Verilator supports SystemVerilog
|
|
preprocessor extensions.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|

Verilator 3.203 2004-03-10
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Notes and repairs for Solaris. [Fred Ma]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.202 2004-01-27
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* The beta version is now the primary release. See below for many changes.
|
|
If you have many problems, you may wish to try release 3.125.
|
|
* Verilated::traceEverOn(true) must be called at time 0 if you will ever
|
|
turn on tracing (waveform dumping) of signals. Future versions will
|
|
need this switch to disable trace incompatible optimizations.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Optimize common replication operations.
|
|
* Fix several tracing bugs
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.201-beta 2003-12-10
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* BETA VERSION, USE 3.124 for stable release!
|
|
* Version 3.2XX includes an all new back-end.
|
|
This includes automatic inlining, flattening of signals between
|
|
hierarchy, and complete ordering of statements. This results in
|
|
60-300% execution speedups, though less pretty C++ output. Even
|
|
better results are possible using GCC 3.2.2 (part of Redhat 9.1), as
|
|
GCC has fixed some optimization problems which Verilator exposes.
|
|
|
|
If you are using `systemc_ctor, beware pointers to submodules are now
|
|
initialized after the constructor is called for a module, to avoid
|
|
segfaults, move statements that reference subcells into initial
|
|
statements.
|
|
* C++ Constructor that creates a verilog module may take a char* name.
|
|
This name will be used to prefix any $display %m arguments, so users may
|
|
distinguish between multiple Verilated modules in a single executable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.125 2004-01-27
|
|
==========================

**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Optimize bit replications
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.124 2003-12-05
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* An optimized executable will be made by default, in addition to a debug
|
|
executable. Invoking Verilator with --debug will pick the debug version.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Many minor invisible changes to support the next version.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Modules which are accessed from external code now must be marked with
|
|
/*verilator public_module*/ unless they already contain public signals.
|

To enforce this, private cell names now have a string prepended.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix replicated function calls in one statement. [Robert A. Clark]
|

|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix declaration of functions before using that module. [Robert A. Clark]
|
|
* Fix module inlining bug with outputs.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
* Support local variables in named begin blocks. [Leon Wildman]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.108 2003-08-11
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Support functions.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Signals 8 bits and shorter are now stored as chars
|
|
instead of uint32_t's. This improves Dcache packing and
|
|
improves performance by ~7%.
|
|
* $display now usually results in a single VL_PRINT rather then many.
|
|
* Optimize conditionals (?:)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.107 2003-07-15
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* --private and --l2name are now the default,
|
|
as this enables additional optimizations.
|
|
Use --noprivate or --nol2name to get the older behavior.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Now support $display of binary and wide format data.
|
|
* Add detection of incomplete case statements,
|
|
and added related optimizations worth ~4%.
|
|
* Work around flex bug in Redhat 8.0. [Eugene Weber]
|
|
* Add some additional C++ reserved words.
|
|
* Additional constant optimizations, ~5% speed improvement.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.106 2003-06-17
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* $c can now take multiple expressions as arguments.
|
|
For example $c("foo","bar(",32+1,");") will insert "foobar(33);"
|
|
This makes it easier to pass the values of signals.
|
|
* Several changes to support future versions that may have
|
|
signal-eliminating optimizations. Users should try to use these switch
|
|
on designs, they will become the default in later versions.
|
|
* Add --private switch and /*verilator public*/ metacomment.
|
|
This renames all signals so that compile errors will result if any
|
|
signals referenced by C++ code are missing a /*verilator public*/
|
|
metacomment.
|
|
* With --l2name, the second level cell C++ cell is now named "v".
|
|
Previously it was named based on the name of the verilog code. This
|
|
means to get to signals, scope to "{topcell} ->v ->{mysignal}" instead
|
|
of "{topcell} ->{verilogmod}. {mysignal}". This allows different
|
|
modules to be substituted for the cell without requiring source
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Several cleanups for Redhat 8.0.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Indicate direction of ports with VL_IN and VL_OUT.
|
|
* Allow $c32, etc, to specify width of the $c statement for VCS.
|
|
* Numerous performance improvements, worth about 25%
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix false "indent underflow" error inside `systemc_ctor sections.
|
|
* Fix missing ordering optimizations when outputs also used internally.
|
|
* Assign constant cell pins in initial blocks rather then every cycle.
|
|
* Promote subcell's combo logic to sequential evaluation when possible.
|
|
* Fix GCC 3.2 compile errors. [Narayan Bhagavatula]
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix parsing bug with casex statements containing case items
|
|
with bit extracts of parameters. [Richard Myers]
|
|
* Fix bug which could cause writes of non-power-of-2 sized arrays to
|
|
corrupt memory beyond the size of the array. [Dan Lussier]
|
|
* Fix bug which did not detect UNOPT problems caused by
|
|
submodules. See the description in the verilator man page. [John Deroo]
|
|
* Fix compile with threaded Perl. [Ami Keren]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.010 2002-11-03
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Support SystemC 2.0.1. SystemPerl version 1.130 or newer is required.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Fix bug with inlined modules under other inlined modules. [Scott Bleiweiss]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 3.005 2002-10-21
|
|
==========================
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* All applications must now link against include/verilated.cpp
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Paths specified to verilator_make should be absolute, or be formed
|
|
to allow for execution in the object directory (prepend ../ to each path.)
|
|
This allows relative filenames for makes which hash and cache dependencies.
|
|
* Add warning when parameter constants are too large. [John Deroo]
|
|
* Add warning when x/?'s used in non-casez statements.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 2.1.5 2001-12-01
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Add coverage analysis. In conjunction with SystemC provide line
|
|
coverage reports, without SystemC, provide a hook to user written
|
|
accumulation function. See --coverage option of verilator_make.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 2.1.4 2001-11-16
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Add $c("c_commands();"); for embedding arbitrary C code in Verilog.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 2.1.3 2001-11-03

|
==========================
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
* Support for parameters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 2.1.2 2001-10-25
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* Verilog Errors now reference the .v file rather then the .vpp file.
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Support strings in assignments: reg [31:0] foo = "STRG";
|
|
* Support %m in format strings. Ripped out old $info support, use
|
|
Verilog-Perl's vpm program instead.
|
|
* Convert $stop to call of v_stop() which user can define.
|
|
* Fix bug where a==b==c would have wrong precedence rule.

|
|
|
|
Verilator 2.1.1 2001-05-17
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
**Major:**
|
|
|
|
* New test_sp directory for System-Perl (SystemC) top level instantiation
|
|
of the Verilated code, lower modules are still C++ code. (Experimental).
|
|
* New test_spp directory for Pure System-Perl (SystemC) where every module
|
|
is true SystemC code. (Experimental)
|
|
|
|
**Minor:**
|
|
|
|
* Input ports are now loaded by pointer reference into the sub-cell.
|
|
This is faster on I-386 machines, as the stack must be used when there are
|
|
a large number of parameters. Also, this simplifies debugging as the value
|
|
of input ports exists for tracing.
|
|
* Many code cleanups towards standard C++ style conventions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verilator 2.1.0 2001-05-08
|
