What are the reasons/motivation for this change?
The
submod
pass internally callsopt_clean
to remove any broken wires, etc. When runningsubmod
many times, theopt_clean
pass can become a major speed bottleneck, and it may be possible to run a singleopt_clean
pass at the end to the same effect, eliminating redundant work. This PR adds a-noclean
option to thesubmod
pass so thatopt_clean
can be run at the user's discretion.Explain how this is achieved.
Add a
-noclean
option tosubmod
pass that disables the automatic running of theopt_clean
pass.If applicable, please suggest to reviewers how they can test the change.
