* If all addresses of an array have the same initial value, they can be
initialized in one go in btor with the constraint that the initial
value must be fully const and thus can't have undef bits in
This makes clk2fflogic add an attr to $ff cells that carry the state of
the emulated async FF. The $ff output doesn't have any async updates
that happened in the current cycle, but the $ff input does, so the $ff
input corresponds to the async FF's output in the original design.
Hence this patch also makes the following changes to passes besides
clk2fflogic (but only for FFs with the clk2fflogic attr set):
* opt_clean treats the input as a register name (instead of the
output)
* rename -witness ensures that the input has a public name
* the formal backends (smt2, btor, aiger) will use the input's
name for the initial state of the FF in witness files
* when sim reads a yw witness that assigns an initial value to the
input signal, the state update is redirected to the output
This ensures that yosys witness files for clk2fflogic designs have
useful and stable public signal names. It also makes it possible to
simulate a clk2fflogic witness on the original design (with some
limitations when the original design is already using $ff cells).
It might seem like setting the output of a clk2fflogic FF to update the
input's initial value might not work in general, but it works fine for
these reasons:
* Witnesses for FFs are only present in the initial cycle, so we do
not care about any later cycles.
* The logic that clk2fflogic generates loops the output of the
genreated FF back to the input, with muxes in between to apply any
edge or level sensitive updates. So when there are no active updates
in the current gclk cycle, there is a combinational path from the
output back to the input.
* The logic clk2fflogic generates makes sure that an edge sensitive
update cannot be active in the first cycle (i.e. the past initial
value is assumed to be whatever it needs to be to avoid an edge).
* When a level sensitive update is active in the first gclk cycle, it
is actively driving the output for the whole gclk cycle, so ignoring
any witness initialization is the correct behavior.
This attribute can be used by formal backends to indicate which clocks
were mapped to the global clock. Update the btor and smt2 backend which
already handle clock inputs to understand this attribute.
This approach had major issues with ROMs whose initialization was not
fully defined. If required, memory_map -rom-only -keepdc should be
called early in a formal flow instead. (This does require a careful
choice of optimization passes though. Sby's scripts will be updated
accordingly.)
This essentially adds wide port support for free in passes that don't
have a usefully better way of handling wide ports than just breaking
them up to narrow ports, avoiding "please run memory_narrow" annoyance.
There will soon be more (versioned) memory cells, so handle passes that
only care if a cell is memory-related by a simple helper call instead of
a hardcoded list.
The $div and $mod cells use truncating division semantics (rounding
towards 0), as defined by e.g. Verilog. Another rounding mode, flooring
(rounding towards negative infinity), can be used in e.g. VHDL. The
new $divfloor cell provides this flooring division.
This commit also fixes the handling of $div in opt_expr, which was
previously optimized as if it was $divfloor.
The $div and $mod cells use truncating division semantics (rounding
towards 0), as defined by e.g. Verilog. Another rounding mode, flooring
(rounding towards negative infinity), can be used in e.g. VHDL. The
new $modfloor cell provides this flooring modulo (also known as "remainder"
in several languages, but this name is ambiguous).
This commit also fixes the handling of $mod in opt_expr, which was
previously optimized as if it was $modfloor.
