Add a utility function to
sv.macro.decl
that can be used to get itsVerilog textual macro identifier name. This is added for convenience to
avoid having to repeat the patter of getting its optional Verilog name or
symbol name.
This is done to fix an issue related to lowering of FIRRTL inline layers
where the
LowerLayers
pass generates newsv.macro.decl
symbols thatwill replace existing
firrtl.layer
symbols. However, it relies on anamespace to generate these and will result in suffixed symbol names. (It
could obviously do more work to conserve symbols or generate in-pass
invalid IR with duplicate symbols.) Nonetheless, the real bug here is
that the
ExportVerilog
conversion is not doing the right thing with theVerilog name attribute.
