All Data starts as being + * Unbound (and the whole point of cloneType is to return an unbound version). + * Then, specific API calls take a Data, and return a bound version (either by + * binding the original model or cloneType then binding the clone). For example, + * Reg[T<:Data](...) returns a T bound to RegBinding. + * + * It is considered invariant that all Elements of a single Data are bound to + * the same concrete type of Binding. + * + * These bindings can be checked (e.g. checkSynthesizable) to make sure certain + * operations are valid. For example, arithemetic operations or connections can + * only be executed between synthesizable nodes. These checks are to avoid + * undefined reference errors. + * + * Bindings can carry information about the particular element in the graph it + * represents like: + * - For ports (and unbound), the 'direction' + * - For (relevant) synthesizable nodes, the enclosing Module + * + * TODO(twigg): Enrich the bindings to carry more information like the hosting + * module (when applicable), direction (when applicable), literal info (when + * applicable). Can ensure applicable data only stored on relevant nodes. e.g. + * literal info on LitBinding, direction info on UnboundBinding and PortBinding, + * etc. + * + * TODO(twigg): Currently, bindings only apply at the Element level and an + * Aggregate is considered bound via its elements. May be appropriate to allow + * Aggregates to be bound along with the Elements. However, certain literal and + * port direction information doesn't quite make sense in aggregates. This would + * elegantly handle the empty Vec or Bundle problem though. + * + * TODO(twigg): Binding is currently done via allElements. It may be more + * elegant if this was instead done as a more explicit tree walk as that allows + * for better errors. + */ + +object Binding { + // Two bindings are 'compatible' if they are the same
