We disabled --trace by default, so we need to stop linking verilated_vcd_c.o
as it doesn't exist in that case.
While at it, make a Makefile variable to enable/disable verilator tracing
and add a couple of generics to those test benches to control tracing
in the L2 and in litedram.

Regenerate from upstream litex. Something in the update has improved
memory read and write performance quite a lot on my Nexys Video:
Before:
Write speed: 83.2MiB/s
Read speed: 140.4MiB/s
After:
Write speed: 352.1MiB/s
Read speed: 218.5MiB/s

This is necessary for the upcoming Arctic Tern system enablement,
since Arctic Tern uses two DRAM devices and a separate clock line
is routed to each device. LiteX handles this behavior correctly,
therefore we assume other hardware exists that uses a similar
DRAM clock design.
Updates from Mikey to fix some compile issues.

This makes the 64-bit wishbone buses have the address expressed in
units of doublewords (64 bits), and similarly for the 32-bit buses the
address is in units of words (32 bits). This is to comply with the
wishbone spec. Previously the addresses on the wishbone buses were in
units of bytes regardless of the bus data width, which is not correct
and caused problems with interfacing with externally-generated logic.

This is a NiteFury based PCIe M2 form-factor board originally
used for mining. It contains a speed grade 2 Artix 7 200T,
1GB of DDR3 and 32MB of flash.
The serial port is routed to pin 2 (RX) and 3 (TX) of the P2
connector (pin 1 is GND).
Note: Only 16MB of flash is currently usable until code is added
to configure the flash controller to use 4-bytes address commands
on that part.

This implements in the L2 cache the feature already in the L1s
allowing a request to be completed before the end of a refill
using partial line valid bits, and starting a refill from the

The sdram_init ELF fails to link:

This is because sdram_init.lds is one of the prerequisites, and thus is

Use a more generic console_init() instead of potato_uart_init(),
and do the same for interrupt control. There should be no

This makes the control bus currently going out of "soc" towards
litedram more generic for external IO devices added by the
top-level rather than inside the SoC proper.
This is mostly renaming of signals and a small change on how the
address decoder operates, using a separate "cascaded" decode for
the external IOs.
We make the region 0xc8nn_nnnn be the "external IO" region for
now.
This will make it easier / cleaner to add more external devices.

It will look for an ELF binary at the flash offset specified
for the board (currently 0x300000 on Arty but that could be
changed).
Note: litedram is regenerated in order to rebuild the init code,
which was done using a newer version of litedram from LiteX.

There is a long timing path to generate the ack signal from
the L2 cache as it's fully combinational for stores, including
signals coming from litedram.
Instead, pipeline the store acks. This will introduce a cycle
latency but should improve timing. Also the core will eventually
be smart enough not to wait for store acks to complete them anyway.

This breaks the long stall signal coming back to the processor
and helps improve overall timing.
Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
Currently, there's a huge mux gathering the output of all the PLRUs
to select the victim way on cache miss. This is fed combinationally
into the clearing of the valid and tags.
In order to help timing, let's store it instead and perform the
clearing on the next cycle. The L2 doesn't respond to requests
when not in IDLE state so this should have no negative effects.

This increases the number of L2 lines from 32 to 64. The BRAM usage is the
same as they were only half used. There's an increase in LUTs and registers
due to the extra tags and valid bits, but none of it should be in a
space constrained or critical timing path.
We could make it wider instead (256 bytes lines) which would reduce usage
instead, but this increases the latency by 8 cycles. Something to consider
once the L2 is capable of early response on miss and starting reloads
from any point in a line.

Support for this has bitrotted and would require refactoring of L2 to
be brought back. It's also not really needed anymore now that we ship
pre-generated litedram and that LiteX supports what we do.
So take it out, which simplifies some of the scripts as well. This also
fixes up CSR alignment the sim model.

This adds a cache between the wishbone and litedram with the following
features (at this point, it's still evolving)
- 128 bytes line width in order to have a reasonable amount of
litedram pipelining on the 128-bit wide data port.
- Configurable geometry otherwise
- Stores are acked immediately on wishbone whether hit or miss
(minus a 2 cycles delay if there's a previous load response in the
way) and sent to LiteDRAM via 8 entries (configurable) store queue

The core_dram_tb test bench is a variant of core_tb with
LiteDRAM simulated. It's not built by default, an explicit
make core_dram_tb
is necessary as to not require verilator to be installed for
the normal build process (also it's slow'ish).
