  ::ModportDirection   # value
>

Type constraint definition ¶

SystemVerilog interface type pointing to an InterfaceOp ¶

A MLIR type for the SV dialect’s InterfaceOp to allow instances in any dialect with an open type system. Points at the InterfaceOp which defines the SystemVerilog interface.

SystemVerilog type pointing to an InterfaceModportOp ¶

A MLIR type for the SV dialect’s InterfaceModportOp to allow interactions with any open type system dialect. Points at the InterfaceModportOp which defines the SystemVerilog interface’s modport.

Operation definition ¶

sv.alias (::circt::sv::AliasOp) ¶

SystemVerilog ‘alias’ statement

Syntax:

operation ::= `sv.alias` $operands attr-dict `:` qualified(type($operands))

An alias statement declares multiple names for the same physical net, or bits within a net. Aliases always have at least two operands.

Operands: ¶

sv.alwayscomb (::circt::sv::AlwaysCombOp) ¶

‘alwayscomb block

Syntax:

operation ::= `sv.alwayscomb` $body attr-dict

See SV Spec 9.2, and 9.2.2.2. Traits: NoRegionArguments, NoTerminator, NonProceduralOp, ProceduralRegion, RecursiveSideEffects, SingleBlock

sv.alwaysff (::circt::sv::AlwaysFFOp) ¶

‘alwaysff @’ block with optional reset

Syntax:

operation ::= `sv.alwaysff` `(` $clockEdge $clock `)` $bodyBlk
              ( `(` $resetStyle `:` $resetEdge^ $reset `)` $resetBlk )? attr-dict

alwaysff blocks represent always_ff verilog nodes, which enforce inference of registers. This block takes a clock signal and edge sensitivity and reset type. If the reset type is anything but ‘noreset’, the block takes a reset signal, reset sensitivity, and reset block. Appropriate if conditions are generated in the output code based on the reset type. A negative-edge, asynchronous reset will check the inverse of the reset condition (if (!reset) begin resetblock end) to match the sensitivity.

sv.xmr (::circt::sv::XMROp) ¶

Encode a reference to a non-local net.

Syntax:

operation ::= `sv.xmr` (`isRooted` $isRooted^)? custom<XMRPath>($path, $terminal) attr-dict `:` qualified(type($result))

This represents a non-local hierarchical name to a net, sometimes called a cross-module reference. A hierarchical name may be absolute, when prefixed with ‘$root’, in which case it is resolved from the set of top-level modules (any non-instantiated modules). Non-absolute paths are resolved by attempting resolution of the path locally, then recursively up the instance graph. See SV Spec 23.6, pp721.

It is impossible to completely resolve a hierarchical name without making a closed-world assumption in the compiler. We therefore don’t try to link hierarchical names to what they resolve to at compile time. A frontend generating this op should ensure that any instance or object in the intended path has public visibility so paths are not invalidated.

Type definition ¶

InterfaceType ¶

SystemVerilog interface type pointing to an InterfaceOp

Syntax:

!sv.interface<
  ::mlir::FlatSymbolRefAttr   # interface
>

A MLIR type for the SV dialect’s InterfaceOp to allow instances in any dialect with an open type system. Points at the InterfaceOp which defines the SystemVerilog interface.

Parameters: ¶

ModportType ¶

SystemVerilog type pointing to an InterfaceModportOp

Syntax:

!sv.modport<
  ::mlir::SymbolRefAttr   # modport
>

A MLIR type for the SV dialect’s InterfaceModportOp to allow interactions with any open type system dialect. Points at the InterfaceModportOp which defines the SystemVerilog interface’s modport.
