// | are performed. This will result in the queueing of processes for execution
// | that are sensitive to those notifications. At that point a delta cycle

// The IEEE 1666 Standard for 2011 designates that the treatment of

// These interactions are:
//   (1) What happens when a resume() call is performed on a disabled, 
//       suspended process.
//   (2) What happens when sync_reset_on() or sync_reset_off() is called
//       on a suspended process.
//   (3) What happens when the value specified in a reset_signal_is()
//       call changes value while a process is suspended.
//
// By default this Proof of Concept implementation reports an error
// for these interactions. However, the implementation also provides
// a non-error treatment. The non-error treatment for the interactions is:
//   (1) A resume() call performed on a disabled, suspended process will
//       mark the process as no longer suspended, and if it is capable
//       of execution (not waiting on any events) it will be placed on
//       the queue of runnable processes. See the state diagram below.
//   (2) A call to sync_reset_on() or sync_reset_off() will set or clear
//       the synchronous reset flag. Whether the process is in reset or
//       not will be determined when the process actually executes by
//       looking at the flag's value at that time.
//   (3) If a suspended process has a reset_signal_is() specification
//       the value of the reset variable at the time of its next execution 
//       will determine whether it is in reset or not.
//      
// TO GET THE NON-ERROR BEHAVIOR SET THE VARIABLE BELOW TO TRUE.

      Name, Affiliation, Date: Ali Dasdan, Synopsys, Inc.
  Description of Modification: - Added sc_stop() detection into initial_crunch
                                 and crunch. This makes it possible to exit out
                                 of a combinational loop using sc_stop().

      Name, Affiliation, Date: Andy Goodrich, Forte Design Systems 20 May 2003
  Description of Modification: - sc_stop mode
                               - phase callbacks

      Name, Affiliation, Date: Bishnupriya Bhattacharya, Cadence Design Systems,
                               25 August 2003
  Description of Modification: - support for dynamic process
                               - support for sc export registry
                               - new member methods elaborate(), 
				 prepare_to_simulate(), and initial_crunch()
				 that are invoked by initialize() in that order
                               - implement sc_get_last_created_process_handle() for use
                                 before simulation starts
                               - remove "set_curr_proc(handle)" from 
                                 register_method_process and 
                                 register_thread_process - led to bugs
                               
      Name, Affiliation, Date: Andy Goodrich, Forte Design Systems 04 Sep 2003
  Description of Modification: - changed process existence structures to
				 linked lists to eliminate exponential 
				 execution problem with using sc_pvector.

//
// Revision 1.8  2011/01/25 20:50:37  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: changes for IEEE 1666 2011.
//
// Revision 1.7  2011/01/19 23:21:50  acg

//
// Revision 1.6  2011/01/18 20:10:45  acg

//
// Revision 1.5  2010/11/20 17:10:57  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: reset processing changes for new IEEE 1666 standard.
//
// Revision 1.4  2010/07/22 20:02:33  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: bug fixes.
//
// Revision 1.3  2008/05/22 17:06:26  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: updated copyright notice to include 2008.
//
// Revision 1.2  2007/09/20 20:32:35  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: changes to the semantics of throw_it() to match the
//  specification. A call to throw_it() will immediately suspend the calling
//  thread until all the throwees have executed. At that point the calling
//  thread will be restarted before the execution of any other threads.
//
// Revision 1.1.1.1  2006/12/15 20:20:05  acg
// SystemC 2.3
//
// Revision 1.21  2006/08/29 23:37:13  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: Added check for negative time.
//
// Revision 1.20  2006/05/26 20:33:16  acg
//   Andy Goodrich: changes required by additional platform compilers (i.e.,
//   Microsoft VC++, Sun Forte, HP aCC).
//
// Revision 1.19  2006/05/08 17:59:52  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: added a check before m_curr_time is set to make sure it
//  is not set to a time before its current value. This will treat
//  sc_event.notify( ) calls with negative times as calls with a zero time.
//
// Revision 1.18  2006/04/20 17:08:17  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: 3.0 style process changes.
//
// Revision 1.17  2006/04/11 23:13:21  acg
//   Andy Goodrich: Changes for reduced reset support that only includes
//   sc_cthread, but has preliminary hooks for expanding to method and thread
//   processes also.
//
// Revision 1.16  2006/03/21 00:00:34  acg
//   Andy Goodrich: changed name of sc_get_current_process_base() to be
//   sc_get_current_process_b() since its returning an sc_process_b instance.
//
// Revision 1.15  2006/03/13 20:26:50  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: Addition of forward class declarations, e.g.,
//  sc_reset, to keep gcc 4.x happy.
//
// Revision 1.14  2006/02/02 23:42:41  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: implemented a much better fix to the sc_event_finder
//  proliferation problem. This new version allocates only a single event
//  finder for each port for each type of event, e.g., pos(), neg(), and
//  value_change(). The event finder persists as long as the port does,
//  which is what the LRM dictates. Because only a single instance is
//  allocated for each event type per port there is not a potential
//  explosion of storage as was true in the 2.0.1/2.1 versions.
//
// Revision 1.13  2006/02/02 21:29:10  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: removed the call to sc_event_finder::free_instances() that
//  was in end_of_elaboration(), leaving only the call in clean(). This is
//  because the LRM states that sc_event_finder instances are persistent as
//  long as the sc_module hierarchy is valid.
//
// Revision 1.12  2006/02/02 21:09:50  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: added call to sc_event_finder::free_instances in the clean()
//  method.
//
// Revision 1.11  2006/02/02 20:43:14  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: Added an existence linked list to sc_event_finder so that
//  the dynamically allocated instances can be freed after port binding
//  completes. This replaces the individual deletions in ~sc_bind_ef, as these
//  caused an exception if an sc_event_finder instance was used more than
//  once, due to a double freeing of the instance.
//
// Revision 1.10  2006/01/31 21:43:26  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: added comments in constructor to highlight environmental
//  overrides section.
//
// Revision 1.9  2006/01/26 21:04:54  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: deprecation message changes and additional messages.
//
// Revision 1.8  2006/01/25 00:31:19  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: Changed over to use a standard message id of
//  SC_ID_IEEE_1666_DEPRECATION for all deprecation messages.
//
// Revision 1.7  2006/01/24 20:49:05  acg
// Andy Goodrich: changes to remove the use of deprecated features within the
// simulator, and to issue warning messages when deprecated features are used.
//
// Revision 1.6  2006/01/19 00:29:52  acg
// Andy Goodrich: Yet another implementation for signal write checking. This
// one uses an environment variable SC_SIGNAL_WRITE_CHECK, that when set to
// DISABLE will disable write checking on signals.
//
// Revision 1.5  2006/01/13 18:44:30  acg
// Added $Log to record CVS changes into the source.
//
// Revision 1.4  2006/01/03 23:18:44  acg
// Changed copyright to include 2006.
//
// Revision 1.3  2005/12/20 22:11:10  acg
// Fixed $Log lines.
//
// Revision 1.2  2005/12/20 22:02:30  acg
// Changed where delta cycles are incremented to match IEEE 1666. Added the
// event_occurred() method to hide how delta cycle comparisions are done within
// sc_simcontext. Changed the boolean update_phase to an enum that shows all
// the phases.
