This splits out the decoding done in the decode0 step into a separate
predecoder, used when writing instructions into the icache. The
icache now holds 36 bits per instruction rather than 32. For valid
instructions, those 36 bits comprise the bottom 26 bits of the
instruction word, a 9-bit insn_code value (which uniquely identifies
the instruction), and a zero in the MSB. For illegal instructions,
the MSB is one and the full instruction word is in the bottom 32 bits.
Having the full instruction word available for illegal instructions
means that it can be printed in the log when simulating, or in future
could be placed in the HEIR register.
If we don't have an FPU, then the floating-point instructions are
regarded as illegal. In that case, the insn_code values would fit
into 8 bits, which could be used in future to reduce the size of
decode_rom from 512 to 256 entries.

This reduces the block RAM requirements for instruction decoding by
splitting it into two steps. The first, in a new pipeline stage
called decode0 (implemented by code in decode1.vhdl) maps the
instruction to a 9-bit instruction code using major and row decode
ROMs. The second maps the 9-bit code to the final decode_rom_t (about
44 bits wide). Branch prediction done in decode is now done in
decode0 rather than decode1.

This combines the various decode arrays in decode1 into two, one
indexed by the major opcode (bits 31--26 of the instruction) together
with bits 4--0 of the instruction, and the other indexed mostly by the
minor opcode (bits 10--1), with some swizzles to accommodate the
relevant parts of the minor opcode space for opcodes 19, 31, 59 and 63
within a 2k entry ROM (11 address bits). These are called the "major"
and the "row" decode ROMs respectively. (Bits 10--6 of the
instruction are called the "row index", and bits 5--1, or 5--0 for
some opcodes, are called the "column index", because of the way the
opcode maps in the ISA are laid out.)
Both ROMs are looked up each cycle and the result from one or other,
or from an override in ri.override_decode, are selected after a clock
edge.
This uses quite a lot of BRAM resources. In future a predecode step
will reduce the BRAM usage substantially.

Instead of having a multiplexer in loadstore1 in order to be able to
put the instruction address into v.addr, we now set decode.input_reg_a
to CIA in the decode table entry for OP_FETCH_FAILED. That means that
the operand selection machinery in decode2 will supply the instruction
address to loadstore1 on the lv.addr1 input and no special case is
needed in loadstore1. This saves a few LUTs (~40 on the Artix-7).

With this, the register RAM is read synchronously using the addresses
supplied by decode1. That means the register RAM can now be block RAM
rather than LUT RAM.
Debug accesses are done via the B port on cycles when decode1
indicates that there is no valid instruction or the instruction
doesn't use a [F]RB operand.
We latch the addresses being read in each cycle and use the same
address next cycle if stalled. Data that is being written is latched
and a multiplexer on each read port then supplies the latched write
data if the read address for that port equals the write address.

This adds some relatively simple logic to decode1 to compute the
GPR/FPR addresses that an instruction will access. It always computes
three addresses regardless of whether the instruction will actually
use all of them. The main things it computes are whether the
instruction uses the RS field or the RC field for the 3rd operand, and
whether the operands are FPRs or GPRs (it is possible for RS to be an
FPR but RA and RB to be GPRs, as for example with stfdx).
At the moment all we do with these computed register addresses is to
assert that they are identical to the ones coming from decode2 one
cycle later.

By putting CTR on the odd side and LR and TAR on the even side, we can
read and write CTR for bdnz-style instructions in parallel with
reading LR or TAR for indirect branches and writing LR for branches
with LK=1. Thus we don't need to double up any of these instructions,
giving a simplification in decode2.
We now have logic for printing LR and CTR at the end of a simulation
in execute1, in addition to the similar logic in register_file and
cr_file.

This starts the process of removing SPRs from the register file by
moving SRR0/1, SPRG0-3, HSRR0/1 and HSPRG0/1 out of the register file
and putting them into execute1. They are stored in a pair of small
RAM arrays, referred to as "even" and "odd". The reason for having
two arrays is so that two values can be read and written in each
cycle. For example, SRR0 and SRR1 can be written in parallel by an
interrupt and read in parallel by the rfid instruction.
The addresses in the RAM which will be accessed are determined in the
decode2 stage. We have one write address for both sides, but two read
addresses, since in future we will want to be able to read CTR at the
same time as either LR or TAR.
We now have a connection from writeback to execute1 which carries the
partial SRR1 value for an interrupt. SRR0 comes from the execute
pipeline; we no longer need to carry instruction addresses along the
LSU and FPU pipelines. Since SRR0 and SRR1 can be written in the same
cycle now, we don't need the little state machine in writeback any
more.

This reduces the set of instructions marked as single-issue to just
attn and mtspr to "slow" SPRs (those that are not stored in the
register file).
The instructions that were previously single-issue are: isync, dcbf,
dcbst, dcbt, dcbtst, eieio, icbi, mfmsr, mtmsr, mtmsrd, mfspr to slow
SPRS, sync, tlbsync and wait. The synchronization instructions are
mostly no-ops anyway due to the in-order nature of the core, and the
cache-management instructions are unimplemented (except for icbi).
The MSR ops don't need to be single-issue due to the in-order core and
the fact that MSR updates are effective on the following instruction.

We now have a record that represents the actions taken in executing an
instruction, and a process that computes that for the incoming
instruction. We no longer have 'current' or 'r.cur_instr', instead
things like the destination register are put into r.e in the first
cycle of an instruction and not reinitialized in subsequent busy
cycles.
For mfspr and mtspr, we now decode "slow" SPR numbers (those SPRs that
are not stored in the register file) to a new "spr_selector" record
in decode1 (excluding those in the loadstore unit). With this, the
result for mfspr is determined in the data path.

This adds a bit to the BTC to store whether the corresponding branch

This uses the instruction doubling machinery to convert conditional

This implements a cache in fetch1, where each entry stores the address
of a simple branch instruction (b or bc) and the target of the branch.
When fetching sequentially, if the address being fetched matches the
cache entry, then fetching will be redirected to the branch target.
The cache has 1024 entries and is direct-mapped, i.e. indexed by bits
11..2 of the NIA.
The bus from execute1 now carries information about taken and
not-taken simple branches, which fetch1 uses to update the cache.
The cache entry is updated for both taken and not-taken branches, with
the valid bit being set if the branch was taken and cleared if the
branch was not taken.
If fetching is redirected to the branch target then that goes down the
pipe as a predicted-taken branch, and decode1 does not do any static
branch prediction. If fetching is not redirected, then the next
instruction goes down the pipe as normal and decode1 does its static
branch prediction.
In order to make timing, the lookup of the cache is pipelined, so on
each cycle the cache entry for the current NIA + 8 is read. This
means that after a redirect (from decode1 or execute1), only the third
and subsequent sequentially-fetched instructions will be able to be
predicted.
This improves the coremark value on the Arty A7-100 from about 180 to
about 190 (more than 5%).
The BTC is optional. Builds for the Artix 7 35-T part have it off by
default because the extra ~1420 LUTs it takes mean that the design

This implements the lq, stq, lqarx and stqcx. instructions.
These instructions all access two consecutive GPRs; for example the
"lq %r6,0(%r3)" instruction will load the doubleword at the address
in R3 into R7 and the doubleword at address R3 + 8 into R6. To cope
with having two GPR sources or destinations, the instruction gets
repeated at the decode2 stage, that is, for each lq/stq/lqarx/stqcx.
coming in from decode1, two instructions get sent out to execute1.
For these instructions, the RS or RT register gets modified on one
of the iterations by setting the LSB of the register number. In LE
mode, the first iteration uses RS|1 or RT|1 and the second iteration
uses RS or RT. In BE mode, this is done the other way around. In
order for decode2 to know what endianness is currently in use, we
pass the big_endian flag down from icache through decode1 to decode2.
This is always in sync with what execute1 is using because only rfid
or an interrupt can change MSR[LE], and those operations all cause
a flush and redirect.
There is now an extra column in the decode tables in decode1 to
indicate whether the instruction needs to be repeated. Decode1 also
enforces the rule that lq with RT = RT and lqarx with RA = RT or
RB = RT are illegal.
Decode2 now passes a 'repeat' flag and a 'second' flag to execute1,
and execute1 passes them on to loadstore1. The 'repeat' flag is set
for both iterations of a repeated instruction, and 'second' is set
on the second iteration. Execute1 does not take asynchronous or
trace interrupts on the second iteration of a repeated instruction.
Loadstore1 uses 'next_addr' for the second iteration of a repeated
load/store so that we access the second doubleword of the memory
operand. Thus loadstore1 accesses the doublewords in increasing
memory order. For 16-byte loads this means that the first iteration
writes GPR RT|1. It is possible that RA = RT|1 (this is a legal
but non-preferred form), meaning that if the memory operand was
misaligned, the first iteration would overwrite RA but then the
second iteration might take a page fault, leading to corrupted state.
To avoid that possibility, 16-byte loads in LE mode take an
alignment interrupt if the operand is not 16-byte aligned. (This
is the case anyway for lqarx, and we enforce it for lq as well.)

This implements the floating square-root calculation using a table
lookup of the inverse square root approximation, followed by three
iterations of Goldschmidt's algorithm, which gives estimates of both
sqrt(FRB) and 1/sqrt(FRB). Then the residual is calculated as
FRB - R * R and that is multiplied by the 1/sqrt(FRB) estimate to get
an adjustment to R. The residual and the adjustment can be negative,
and since we have an unsigned multiplier, the upper bits can be wrong.
In practice the adjustment fits into an 8-bit signed value, and the
bottom 8 bits of the adjustment product are correct, so we sign-extend
them, divide by 4 (because R is in 10.54 format) and add them to R.
Finally the residual is calculated again and compared to 2*R+1 to see
if a final increment is needed. Then the result is rounded and
written back.
This implements fsqrts as fsqrt, but with rounding to single precision
and underflow/overflow calculation using the single-precision exponent
range. This could be optimized later.

This implements floating-point division A/B by a process that starts
with normalizing both inputs if necessary. Then an estimate of 1/B
from a lookup table is refined by 3 Newton-Raphson iterations and then
multiplied by A to get a quotient. The remainder is calculated as
A - R * B (where R is the result, i.e. the quotient) and the remainder
is compared to 0 and to B to see whether the quotient needs to be
incremented by 1. The calculations of 1 / B are done with 56 fraction
bits and intermediate results are truncated rather than rounded,
meaning that the final estimate of 1 / B is always correct or a little
bit low, never too high, and thus the calculated quotient is correct
or 1 unit too low. Doing the estimate of 1 / B with sufficient
precision that the quotient is always correct to the last bit without
needing any adjustment would require many more bits of precision.
This implements fdivs by computing a double-precision quotient and
then rounding it to single precision. It would be possible to
optimize this by e.g. doing only 2 iterations of Newton-Raphson and
then doing the remainder calculation and adjustment at single
precision rather than double precision.
