Module headers (non-ANSI-style only for now):

.. verilog::module:: module Top(a, b);

Port declarations:

.. verilog:port:: input wire [31:0] a, b;

Parameter declarations:

.. verilog:parameter:: parameter logic param_name_05 = 1, param_name_05_b = 2;

Custom name for use in references:

.. verilog:module:: module \35(4p3|) (z);
    :refname: module_escaped

References:

Reference to :verilog:ref:`Top`
Reference to :verilog:ref:`module_escaped` - links to ``\\35(4p3|)``

Nesting:

.. verilog:module:: module Top1(a, b, c);

    .. verilog:port:: input a;

        Description of port ``a``

    .. verilog:port:: input b;

        Description of port ``b``

    .. verilog:module:: module Nested(a);

        .. verilog:port:: output a;

            Description of port ``a`` in ``Nested``

        Reference to module ``Top1``'s port ``a``: :verilog:ref:`Top1.a`.

Namespaces

There are three directives for changing current Verilog scope:

  • .. verilog:namespace:: A::B - sets current scope to A::B. Using $root as an argument or using the directive without argument at all sets global namespace.
  • .. verilog:namespace-push:: C::D - sets current scope to C::D relatively to current scope
  • .. verilog:namespace-pop:: - restores scope which was active before previous namespace-push was called. If there is no matching namespace-push, scope is set to global scope.

Note

verilog::namespace resets push/pop stack

Example:

.. verilog:namespace:: A::B
.. verilog:port:: input inside_a_b;
.. verilog:namespace-push:: C::D
.. verilog:port:: input inside_a_b_c_d;
.. verilog:namespace-pop::
.. verilog:port:: input inside_a_b_again;
.. verilog:namespace::
.. verilog:port:: input in_global_namespace;
