Description & Motivation
Even though the FSM should never allow the case statement to reach an invalid state, synthesis tools may still infer a latch for receivers in the actions which are not assigned in the
defaultcase. This PR fixes this issue by zeroing out all receivers mentioned in any actions in thedefault, even though it should never happen.Related Issue(s)
