Verilator 5.002 2022-10-29
==========================

**Major:**

* This is a major new release.

  newer compiler is strongly recommended.
* Support the Active and NBA scheduling regions as defined by the
  SystemVerilog standard (IEEE 1800-2017 chapter 4). This means all generated
  clocks are now simulated correctly (#3278, #3384). [Geza Lore, Shunyao CAD]

  statements) and forks. [Krzysztof Bieganski, Antmicro Ltd]
  This may require adding --timing or --no-timing. See docs for details.

  significant performance improvements on some designs. [Geza Lore, Shunyao CAD]
* Add --binary option as alias of --main --exe --build --timing (#3625).
  For designs where C++ was only used to make a simple no-I/O testbench, we
  recommend abandoning that C++, and instead letting Verilator build it
  with --binary (or --main).
