- 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.
This parameter will resolve to the name of the cell being mapped. The
first user of this parameter will be synth_intel_alm's Quartus output,
which requires a unique (and preferably descriptive) name passed as
a cell parameter for the memory cells.
Those can be created by `opt_dff` when optimizing `$adff` with const
clock, or with D == Q. Make dfflegalize do the opposite transform
when such dlatches would be otherwise unimplementable.
This ensures that, when both sync and async FFs are available and abc9
is involved, the sync FFs will be used, and will thus remain available
for sequential synthesis.
I think these were probably missed by accident. Spotted because GCC
spits out lots of messages like this:
passes/techmap/dfflegalize.cc:114:7: warning: zero-length gnu_printf format string [-Wformat-zero-length]
114 | log("");
| ^~
(because we tell GCC that the first argument to log() looks like a
printf control string in log.h, and a zero length such string triggers
a warning).
Before this commit, `flatten` matched the template objects with
the newly created objects solely by their name. Because of this,
it could be confused by code such as:
module bar();
$dff a();
endmodule
module foo();
bar b();
$dff \b.a ();
endmodule
After this commit, `flatten` avoids every possible case of name
collision.
Fixes#2106.
`flatten` cannot derive modules in most cases because that would just
yield processes, and it does not support `-autoproc`; in practice
`flatten` has to be preceded by a call to `hierarchy`, which makes
deriving unnecessary.
After splitting the passes, some options can never be activated,
and most conditions involving them become dead. Remove them, and also
all of the newly dead code.
Although the two passes started out very similar, they diverged over
time and now have little in common. Moreover, `techmap` is extremely
complex while `flatten` does not have to be, and this complexity
interferes with improving `flatten`.
This includes the following significant changes:
* Patching ezsat and minisat to disable resource limiting code
on WASM/WASI, since the POSIX functions they use are unavailable.
* Adding a new definition, YOSYS_DISABLE_SPAWN, present if platform
does not support spawning subprocesses (i.e. Emscripten or WASI).
This definition hides the definition of `run_command()`.
* Adding a new Makefile flag, DISABLE_SPAWN, present in the same
condition. This flag disables all passes that require spawning
subprocesses for their function.
This pass is a proper subset of opt_rmdff, which is called by opt, which
is called by every synth flow in the coarse part. Thus, it never
actually does anything and can be safely removed.
Before this patch,
```
module top(inout io);
assign io = 1'bx;
endmodule
```
would have the `io` pin demoted to input (same happens for `1'bz`,
but not for `1'b0` or `1'b1`), resulting in check failures later on.
Part of fix for #1841.
