What are the reasons/motivation for this change?
The select command in Yosys includes an option that allows patterns to match black/white-box modules or their contents by prefixing the pattern with =. This is documented here:
However, the method
RTLIL::Design::selected_modules()
filters out blackboxes, so adding a=
to a pattern does nothing.Explain how this is achieved.
We add a
include_bw_box
parameter that defaults to false toRTLIL::Design::selected_modules()
andRTLIL::Design::selected_whole_modules()
.If applicable, please suggest to reviewers how they can test the change.
Discarded options
Unconditionally selecting blackboxes
That would break some passes, like
opt
