Previously, memories were silently discarded by the JSON backend, making
round-tripping modules with them crash.
Since there are already some users using JSON to implement custom
external passes that use memories (and infer width/size from memory
ports), let's fix this by just making JSON backend and frontend support
memories as first-class objects.
Processes are still not supported, and will now cause a hard error.
Fixes#1908.
The already-existing special case for conditionals on clock has been
remade as follows:
- now triggered for the last remaining edge trigger after all others
have been converted to async reset, not just when there is only one
sync rule in the first place
- does not require all contained assignments to be constant, as opposed
to a reset conditional — merely const-folds the condition
In addition, the code has been refactored a bit; as a bonus, the
priority order of async resets found is now preserved in resulting sync
rule ordering (though this is not yet respected by proc_dff).
Fixes#2656.
Among other problems, this also fixes equality comparisons between
SigSpec by enforcing a canonical form.
Also fix another minor issue with possible non-canonical SigSpec.
Fixes#2623.
This defers the simplification of globals so that globals in one file
may depend on globals in other files. Adds a simplify() call downstream
because globals are appended at the end.
It was previously possible to override global parameters on a
per-instance basis. This could be dangerous when using positional
parameter bindings, hiding oversupplied parameters.
- Modules with a parameter without a default value will be automatically
deferred until the hierarchy pass
- Allows for parameters without defaults as module items, rather than
just int the `parameter_port_list`, despite being forbidden in the LRM
- Check for parameters without defaults that haven't been overriden
- Add location info to parameter/localparam declarations
Declaring the ports as standard module items already worked as expected.
This adds a missing usage of `checkRange()` so that headers such as
`module m(output integer x);` now work correctly.
New test cases on one branch may be automatically copied from simple/ to
simple_abc9/, causing failures when switching to another branch. This
updates the simple_abc9 script to set aside extraneous tests in a
non-destructive way.
