Hailong Sun contributed to the llvm/circt repository by enhancing the Verilog import process, focusing on accurate hierarchical naming and real-number support within the MLIR-based CIRCT flow. He developed HierarchicalNames.cpp to enable both upward and downward references, improving the representation of complex module interconnections. In addition, Hailong implemented real-number math and conversions for SystemVerilog real types, aligning with IEEE 1800-2017 standards. He also addressed a stability issue in the MooreToCore conversion path by fixing a crash related to block arguments and adding regression tests. His work leveraged C++, SystemVerilog, and compiler development expertise to improve reliability and design coverage.

February 2025 focused on delivering real-number support in ImportVerilog and stabilizing the MooreToCore conversion path. Key outcomes include feature delivery for real-number math and conversions for SystemVerilog real types into CIRCT, aligned with IEEE 1800-2017; and a regression-tested bug fix addressing a crash in MooreToCore when block arguments are used as observed values for llhd.wait. These changes enhance design coverage, reliability, and downstream usability of CIRCT in real-number hardware design flows.
