- 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
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.

This change set contains a number of bug fixes and improvements related to
scoping and resolution in generate and procedural blocks. While many of the
frontend changes are interdependent, it may be possible bring the techmap
changes in under a separate PR.
Declarations within unnamed generate blocks previously encountered issues
because the data declarations were left un-prefixed, breaking proper scoping.
The LRM outlines behavior for generating names for unnamed generate blocks. The
original goal was to add this implicit labelling, but doing so exposed a number
of issues downstream. Additional testing highlighted other closely related scope
resolution issues, which have been fixed. This change also adds support for
block item declarations within unnamed blocks in SystemVerilog mode.
1. Unlabled generate blocks are now implicitly named according to the LRM in
`label_genblks`, which is invoked at the beginning of module elaboration
2. The Verilog parser no longer wraps explicitly named generate blocks in a
synthetic unnamed generate block to avoid creating extra hierarchy levels
where they should not exist
3. The techmap phase now allows special control identifiers to be used outside
of the topmost scope, which is necessary because such wires and cells often
appear in unlabeled generate blocks, which now prefix the declarations within
4. Some techlibs required modifications because they relied on the previous
invalid scope resolution behavior
5. `expand_genblock` has been simplified, now only expanding the outermost
scope, completely deferring the inspection and elaboration of nested scopes;
names are now resolved by looking in the innermost scope and stepping outward
6. Loop variables now always become localparams during unrolling, allowing them
to be resolved and shadowed like any other identifier
7. Identifiers in synthetic function call scopes are now prefixed and resolved
in largely the same manner as other blocks
before: `$func$\func_01$tests/simple/scopes.blk.v:60$5$\blk\x`
after: `\func_01$func$tests/simple/scopes.v:60$5.blk.x`
8. Support identifiers referencing a local generate scope nested more
than 1 level deep, i.e. `B.C.x` while within generate scope `A`, or using a
prefix of a current or parent scope, i.e. `B.C.D.x` while in `A.B`, `A.B.C`,
or `A.B.C.D`
9. Variables can now be declared within unnamed blocks in SystemVerilog mode
Addresses the following issues: 656, 2423, 2493
- Signed cell outputs are sign extended when bound to larger wires
- Signed connections are sign extended when bound to larger cell inputs
- Sign extension is performed in hierarchy and flatten phases
- genrtlil indirects signed constants through signed wires
- Other phases producing RTLIL may need to be updated to preserve
signedness information
- Resolves#1418
- Resolves#2265
When an adffe is being legalized, and is not natively supported,
prioritize unmapping to adff over converting to dffsre if dffsre is not
natively supported itself.
Fixes#2361.
The only difference between "RTLIL" and "ILANG" is that the latter is
the text representation of the former, as opposed to the in-memory
graph representation. This distinction serves no purpose but confuses
people: it is not obvious that the ILANG backend writes RTLIL graphs.
Passes `write_ilang` and `read_ilang` are provided as aliases to
`write_rtlil` and `read_rtlil` for compatibility.
For connection `assign a = b;`, `sigmap(a)` returns `b`. This is
exactly the opposite of the desired canonicalization for driven bits.
Consider the following code:
module foo(inout a, b);
assign a = b;
endmodule
module bar(output c);
foo f(c, 1'b0);
endmodule
Before this commit, the inout ports would be swapped after flattening
(and cause a crash while attempting to drive a constant value).
This issue was introduced in 9f772eb9.
Fixes#2183.
