0.10.3 October 24th 2015

    • Add bv2v and v2bv functions that convert between Vec n Bit and BitVector n.
    • Add smap: apply a function to every element of a vector and the element's position (as an 'SNat' value) in the vector.

0.10 October 3rd 2015

  • New features:
    • The Vec constructor :> is now an explicitly bidirectional pattern synonym (the actual constructor has been renamed to Cons). As a result, pattern matching on :> is now synthesisable by the CLaSH compiler.
    • The function <: is replaced by the the explicitly bidirectional pattern synonym :<. This allows you to pattern match on: "all but the last element of a vector" and "the last element" of the vector. Because it is a bidirectional pattern, :< can also be used as an expression that appends an element to the tail of a vector.
    • Add a transpose function in CLaSH.Sized.Vector.
    • Add stencil1d and stensil2d stencil computation functions in CLaSH.Sized.Vector.
    • Add permute, backpermute, scatter, and gather permutation functions in CLaSH.Sized.Vector.
    • Add specialised permutation functions interleave, rotateLeft, and rotateRight in CLaSH.Sized.Vector.
    • sscanl and sscanr in CLaSH.Sized.Vector are renamed to postscanl and postscanrto be more in line with existing Haskell packages such asvectorandaccelerate`.
    • The Foldable and Traversable instances of Vec now only works for non-empty vectors.
    • Where possible, members of the Foldable instance of Vec are described in terms of fold, which builds a tree (of depth log(n)) of computations, instead of foldr which had depth n computations. This reduces the critical path length in your circuits when using these functions.
    • maxIndex and length in CLaSH.Sized.Vector return an Int instead of an Integer.
    • Add functions that involve an index into a vector to the CLaSH.Sized.Vector module: indices, indicesI, imap, izipWith, ifoldr, ifoldl, findIndex, elemIndex.
    • CLaSH.Sized.Vector's fold, dfold, vfold, and toList are now synthesisable by the CLaSH compiler.

0.9.3 September 21st 2015

  • Fixes bugs:
    • Cannot build against singletons-0.2
    • Numerous documentation fixes

0.9.2 August 2nd 2015

  • Disable strictness analysis in CLaSH.Signal.Internal, this allows turning on strictness analysis in the GHC front-end of the CLaSH compiler.

0.9.1 June 26th 2015

  • Updated documentation on data-file support on Altera/Quartus

0.9 June 25th 2015

  • New features:
    • Add operations on singleton natural numbers: addSNat, subSNat, mulSNat, and powSNat.
    • Add asynchronous RAM functions in CLaSH.Prelude.RAM, which have an asynchronous/combinational read port.
    • Add ROM functions in modules CLaSH.Prelude.ROM and CLaSH.Prelude.ROM.File, where the latter module contains functions that instantiate a ROM from the content specified in an external data-file.
    • Add BlockRam functions, in the CLaSH.Prelude.BlockRam.File module, whose content can be initialised with the content specified in an external data-file.
    • assert now takes an extra String argument so you can distinguish one assert from the others. Additionally, assert' is added which takes an additional SClock argument. This is needed, because assert now reports the clock cycle, and clock domain, when an assertion fails.
    • defClkAltera and defClkXilinx are replaced by, altpll and alteraPll for Altera clock sources, and clockWizard for Xilinx clock sources. These names correspond to the names of the generator utilities in Quartus and ISE/Vivado.
    • Add Safe versions of the prelude modules: CLaSH.Prelude.Safe and CLaSH.Prelude.Explicit.Safe
    • Add synchronizers in the CLaSH.Prelude.Synchronizer module

0.8 June 3rd 2015

  • New features:

    • Make the (Bit)Vector argument the last argument for the following functions: slice, setSlice, replaceBit, replace. The signatures for the above functions are now:

      slice      :: BitPack a => SNat m -> SNat n -> a -> BitVector (m + 1 - n)
setSlice   :: BitPack a => SNat m -> SNat n -> BitVector (m + 1 - n) -> a -> a
replaceBit :: Integral i => i -> Bit -> a -> a
replace    :: Integral i => i -> a -> Vec n a -> Vec n a

      This allows for easier chaining, e.g.:

      replaceBit 0 1 $
repleceBit 4 0 $
replaceBit 6 1 bv

    • Until version 0.7.5, given x :: Vec 8 Bit and y :: BitVector 8, it used to be last x == msb y. This is quite confusing when printing converted values. Until version 0.7.5 we would get:

      > 0x0F :: BitVector 8
0000_1111
> unpack 0x0F :: Vec 8 Bit
<1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0>

      As of version 0.8, we have head x == msb y:

      > 0x0F :: BitVector 8
0000_1111
> unpack 0x0F :: Vec 8 Bit
<0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1>

      So converting for Vectors of Bits to BitVectors is no longer index-preserving, but it is order-preserving.
