- Attempt to lookup a derived module if it potentially contains a port
connection with elaboration ambiguities
- Mark the cell if module has not yet been derived
- This can be extended to implement automatic hierarchical port
connections in a future change
- FfData now keeps track of the module and underlying cell, if any (so
calling emit on FfData created from a cell will replace the existing cell)
- FfData implementation is split off to its own .cc file for faster
compilation
- the "flip FF data sense by inserting inverters in front and after"
functionality that zinit uses is moved onto FfData class and beefed up
to have dffsr support, to support more use cases
- *_en is split into *_ce (clock enable) and *_aload (async load aka
latch gate enable), so both can be present at once
- has_d is removed
- has_gclk is added (to have a clear marker for $ff)
- d_is_const and val_d leftovers are removed
- async2sync, clk2fflogic, opt_dff are updated to operate correctly on
FFs with async load
Mutating the SigMap by adding a new connection will throw off FfInitVals
index. Work around this by removing the relevant init values from index
whenever we connect nets, then re-add the new init value.
Should fix#2920.
Previously, opt_clean would reconnect all ports (including FF Q ports)
to a "canonical" SigBit chosen by complex rules, but would leave the
init attribute on the old wire. This change applies the same
canonicalization rules to the init attributes, ensuring that init moves
to wherever the Q port moved.
Part of another jab at #2920.
This also aligns the functionality:
- in all cases, the onehot attribute is used to create appropriate
constraints (previously, opt_dff didn't do it at all, and share
created one-hot constraints based on $pmux presence alone, which
is unsound)
- in all cases, shift and mul/div/pow cells are now skipped when
importing the SAT problem (previously only memory_share did this)
— this avoids creating clauses for hard cells that are unlikely
to help with proving the UNSATness needed for optimization
If width of a case expression was large, explicit patterns could cause
the existing logic to take an extremely long time, or exhaust the
maximum size of the underlying set. For cases where all of the patterns
are fully defined and there are no constants in the case expression,
this change uses a simple set to track which patterns have been seen.
This adds one simple piece of functionality to opt_expr: when a cell
port is connected to a fully-constant signal (as determined by sigmap),
the port is reconnected directly to the constant value. This is just
enough optimization to fix the "non-constant $meminit input" problem
without requiring a full opt_clean or a separate pass.
