// Converts an arbitrary block of code into a Verilog string
`define PRIM_STRINGIFY(__x) `"__x`"

// The basic helper macros are actually defined in "implementation headers". The macros should do
// the same thing in each case (except for the dummy flavour), but in a way that the respective
// tools support.
//
// If the tool supports assertions in some form, we also define INC_ASSERT (which can be used to
// hide signal definitions that are only used for assertions).
//
// The list of basic macros supported is:
//
//  ASSERT_I:     Immediate assertion. Note that immediate assertions are sensitive to simulation
//                glitches.
//
//  ASSERT_INIT:  Assertion in initial block. Can be used for things like parameter checking.
//
//  ASSERT_FINAL: Assertion in final block. Can be used for things like queues being empty at end of
//                sim, all credits returned at end of sim, state machines in idle at end of sim.
//
//  ASSERT:       Assert a concurrent property directly. It can be called as a module (or
//                interface) body item.
//
//                Note: We use (__rst !== '0) in the disable iff statements instead of (__rst ==
//                '1). This properly disables the assertion in cases when reset is X at the
//                beginning of a simulation. For that case, (reset == '1) does not disable the
//                assertion.
//
//  ASSERT_NEVER: Assert a concurrent property NEVER happens
//
//  ASSERT_KNOWN: Assert that signal has a known value (each bit is either '0' or '1') after reset.
//                It can be called as a module (or interface) body item.
//
//  COVER:        Cover a concurrent property
//
//  ASSUME:       Assume a concurrent property
//
//  ASSUME_I:     Assume an immediate property
