Subject: hdl.ast: add name_suffix=".." option to Signal.like().
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e886988d9a1ccde5dad31b8ae0dba3b06f860690;p=nmigen.git

hdl.ast: add name_suffix=".." option to Signal.like().

This simplifies creation of related signals with nice names during
metaprogramming, e.g.

  def make_ff(m, sig):
      sig_ff = Signal.like(sig, name_suffix="_ff")
      m.d.sync += sig_ff.eq(sig)
      return sig_ff
