Name

paiol - PAT data structure

Description

paiol is a data structure used in PAT to represent a one-bit input-output. pagrp has been designed to be used in a simply chained list. For more efficient accessibility a paiol list must be organized as a table (to allow indexed addressing).

A paiol structure is composed of the following fields.

(char *) NAME
the input-output's name. For an actual array's element, the name is the array's identifier added to the element's index seperated by a ` ` (blank space). This string is supposed been produced by namealloc().
(char) FORMAT
the read-write format: X (hexa.), O (octal) and, B (binary scalar)
(char) BLANK
number of blank column to be printed after the value
(char) VALUE
not used
(char) MODE
the input-output's mode. This flag is first, setup by the compiler:
I
input-output declared as in
O
input-output declared as out
T
input-output declared as inout
S
input-output declared as signal
R
input-output declared as register

then modified by the linker (Asimut simulation tool) :

I
I - port of mode in
B
O - simple port of mode inout
O
O - simple port of mode out
Z
O - bused port of mode out
T
T - bused port of mode inout
S
S - simple behavioural signal
W
S - simple structural signal
X
S - bused structural signal
U
S - bused behavioural signal
R
R - behavioural signal of kind register
