TODO
Figure out how widths propogate for all updated primops (Adam)
Remove letrec. Add to expressions: Register(input,en), ReadPort(mem,index,enable), WritePort(mem,index,enable) (Patrick)
Add bit-reduce-and etc to primops (Jonathan)
Write pass to rename identifiers (alpha-transform) (Adam)
Add partial bulk connect (Scott, Stephen)
Add FIFOs to the IR (Palmer)
Registers/Memories only have data and enable fields, which can be written/read from. These are set by the front-end. This will probably have to wait (Palmer)
Multi-streams for print statements (Jack)
Consider def female node. (Patrick)
Think about supporting memories (Scott)
Update spec
add new field for sequential or combinational
add assertions
Future questions to address in spec:
Introduction – motivation, and intended usage
Philosophical justifications for all constructs
More introduction for types, e.g. what is a ground type?
What is a statement? What is an expression? What is a memory? Difference between vector type and memory? What are accessors for?
Why would I ever write an empty statement? Mainly for use by compiler/passes
What is a structural element? Duplication?
Subtracting two unsigned numbers… Should talk to a math guy to figure it out
What are shift left and shift right operations? HW doesn’t have these concepts. Need justification.
What is lowered form? What is it for?
Tests:
Error if declare anything other than module in circuit
Error if incorrectly assign stuff, like use = instead of :=
Error: Node not parsed for stmts
Male node:
defnode n = e
==>
wire n
n := e
Female node:
defnode n = e
==>
wire n
e := n
