* Change simlib's $mux cell to use the ternary operator as $_MUX_
already does
* Stop opt_expr -keepdc from changing S=x to S=0
* Change const eval of $mux and $pmux to match the updated simlib
(fixes sim)
* The sat behavior of $mux already matches the updated simlib
The verilog frontend uses $mux for the ternary operators and this
changes all interpreations of the $mux cell (that I found) to match the
verilog simulation behavior for the ternary operator. For 'if' and
'case' expressions the frontend may also use $mux but uses $eqx if the
verilog simulation behavior is requested with the '-ifx' option.
For $pmux there is a remaining mismatch between the sat behavior and the
simlib behavior. Resolving this requires more discussion, as the $pmux
cell does not directly correspond to a specific verilog construct.
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.
Turns out the code for div by a power of 2 is already almost capable of
optimizing this to a shift-by-0 or and-with-0, which will be further
folded into nothingness; let's beef it up to handle div by 1 as well.
Fixes#2820.
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.
Detect the places in the $alu where the carry bit is constant (due to
const A[i] == B[i] ^ BI) and split it into smaller $alu at these points.
Also, make the existing const-carry detection for low bits more generic
(now handles cases where both BI and CI are constant, but not equal to
one another).
Fixes#1912.
