Used to select all modules including boxes, set when both `full` and `boxes` are true in the constructor, pulling down `full_selection`.
Add `Selection::selects_all()` method as short hand for `full_selection || complete_selection`.
Update selection operations to account for complete selections.
Add static methods to `Selection` for creating a new empty/full/complete selection to make it clearer to users when doing so.
Use said static methods to replace most instances of the `Selection` constructor.
Update `Selection::optimize` to use
The `Design::selected_*()` methods no longer unconditionally skip boxed modules. Instead, selections are now box and design aware.
The selection constructor now optionally takes a design pointer, and has a new `selects_boxes` flag. If the selection has an assigned design, then `Selection::selected_*()` will only return true for boxed modules if the selects_boxes flag is set. A warning is raised if a selection is checked and no design is set. Selections can change design via the `Selection::optimize()` method.
Most places that iterate over `Design::modules()` and check `Selection::selected_module()` should instead use `Design::selected_modules()`.
Since boxed modules should only ever be selected explicitly, and `full_selection` (now) refers to all non-boxed modules, `Selection::optimize()` will clear the `full_selection` flag if the `selects_boxes` flag is enabled, and instead explicitly selects all modules (including boxed modules). This also means that `full_selection` will only get automatically applied to a design without any boxed modules.
These changes necessitated a number of changes to `select.cc` in order to support this functionality when operating on selections, in particular when combining selections (e.g. by union or difference).
To minimize redundancy, a number of places that previously iterated over `design->modules()` now push the current selection to the design, use `design->selected_modules()`, and then pop the selection when done.
Introduce `RTLIL::NamedObject`, to allow for iterating over all members of a module with a single iterator instead of needing to iterate over wires, cells, memories, and processes separately.
Also implement `Module::selected_{memories, processes, members}()` to match wires and cells methods. The `selected_members()` method combines each of the other `selected_*()` methods into a single list.
- Techlib pmgens are now in relevant techlibs/*.
- `peepopt` pmgens are now in passes/opt.
- `test_pmgen` is still in passes/pmgen.
- Update `Makefile.inc` and `.gitignore` file(s) to match new `*_pm.h` location,
as well as the `#include`s.
- Change default `%_pm.h` make target to `techlibs/%_pm.h` and move it to the
top level Makefile.
- Update pmgen target to use `$(notdir $*)` (where `$*` is the part of the file
name that matched the '%' in the target) instead of `$(subst _pm.h,,$(notdir
$@))`.
The B port is for single-bit summands. These can just as well be
represented as an additional summand on the A port (which supports
summands of arbitrary width). An upcoming `$macc_v2` cell won't be
special-casing single-bit summands in any way.
In preparation, make the following changes:
* remove the `bit_ports` field from the `Macc` helper (instead add any
single-bit summands to `ports` next to other summands)
* leave `B` empty on cells emitted from `Macc::to_cell`
Previously the `abc9_box` mode was reserved to modules with the
`blackbox` or `whitebox` attribute. Allow `abc9_box` on ordinary modules
when doing hierarchical synthesis.
`abc9_ops -prep_box` command interprets the `abc9_box` attribute and
prepares a .box file for ABC consumption. Previously this command was
removing the attribute as it was processing each module which prevented
repeated invocation of this command unless the box definitions were
refreshed from a source file.
Also the command was keeping existing `abc9_box_id` attributes instead
of overwriting them with values from a new number sequence.
Change both behaviors to allow repeated invocations of the command on
the same design.
