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.

Bugpoint's current documentation does specify that the result of a run is stored as the current design,
however it's easy to skim over what that means in practice.
Add a documentation comment to explain specifically that an after bugpoint `write_xyz` pass is required to save
the reduced design.
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.
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 the register being merged into the EN signal happens to be a $sdff,
the current code creates a new $mux for every bit, even if they happen
to be identical (as is usually the case), preventing proper grouping
further down the flow. Fix this by adding a simple cache.
Fixes#2409.
Previously, `$memwr` and `$meminit` cells were always preserved (along
with the memory itself). With this change, they are instead part of the
main cell mark-and-sweep pass: a memory (and its `$meminit` and `$memwr`
cells) is only preserved iff any associated `$memrd` cell needs to be
preserved.
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.
