Description
Every chisel module has implict clock and reset, I wonder if the parent and child's clock and reset are automatically connected?
Also, I wonder if parent and child **lazymodule's** clock and reset are connected by default(considering the module property of Lazymodule is LazyModuleImp, I know if the module of LazyModule is of type LazyRawModuleImp, then you can wire the child clock and child reset manully. I just felt confused about the default behavior)? If they are connected, which part of the code base indicate this?
Thanks!
Part of this is a chisel question, So @jackkoenig, can you clarify this for me?

Research direction
The issue names LazyModule, LazyModuleImp, and LazyRawModuleImp but no file or test. Start by tracing those entry points in the rocket-chip codebase and checking the related Chisel behavior. Done means documenting whether parent and child clocks and resets are connected by default, with the relevant code location identified.
