The current dcache will not update the PLRU on a cache miss which is later
satisfied during the reload process. Thus subsequent misses will potentially
evict the same cache line. The same issue happens with dcbz which are
treated more/less as load misses.
This fixes it by triggering a PLRU update when r1.choose_victim, which is
set on a miss for one cycle to snapshot the PLRU output. This means we will
update the PLRU on the same cycle as we capture its output, which is fine
(the new value will be visible on the next cycle).
That way, a "miss" will result in a PLRU update to reflect that the entry
being refilled is actually used (and will be used to serve subsequent
load operations from the same cache line while being refilled).

It bitrotted... more signals need to be initialized. This also adds
a lot more accesses with different timing conditions allowing to
test cases of hit during reloads, hit with reload formward, hit on idle
cache etc...
It also exposes a bug where the cache miss caused by the read of 0x140
uses the same victim way as previous cache miss of 0x40 (same index).
This bug will need to be fixed separately, but at least this exposes it.

Rather than having update and decode logic for each individual PLRU
as well as a register to store the current PLRU state, we now put the
PLRU state in a little RAM, which will typically use LUT RAM on FPGAs,
and have just a single copy of the logic to calculate the pseudo-LRU
way and to update the PLRU state.
The PLRU RAM that apples to the data storage (as opposed to the TLB)
is read asynchronously in the cycle after the cache tag matching is
done. At the end of that cycle the PLRU RAM entry is updated if the
access was a cache hit, or a victim way is calculated and stored if
the access was a cache miss. It is possible that a cache miss doesn't
start being handled until later, in which case the stored victim way
is used later when the miss gets handled.
Similarly for the TLB PLRU, the RAM is read asynchronously in the
cycle after a TLB lookup is done, and either updated at the end of
that cycle (for a hit), or a victim is chosen and stored for when the
TLB miss is satisfied.

Among other changes, this makes the things that were previously
declared as signals of integer base type to be unsigned, since
unsigned can carry metavalues, and hence we can get the checking for
metavalues closer to the uses and therefore restrict the checking to
the situations where the signal really ought to be well defined.
We now have a couple more signals that indicate request validity to
help with that.
Non-fatal asserts have been sprinkled throughout to assist with
determining the cause of warnings from library functions (primarily
NUMERIC_STD.TO_INTEGER and NUMERIC_STD."=").

This fixes a bug where a dcbz can get incorrectly handled as an
ordinary 8-byte store if it arrives while the dcache state machine is
handling other stores with the same tag value (i.e. within the same
set-sized area of memory). The logic that says whether to include a
new store in the current wishbone cycle didn't take into account
whether the new store was a dcbz. This adds a "req.dcbz = '0'" factor
so that it does. This is necessary because dcbz is handled more like
a cache line refill (but writing to memory rather than reading) than
an ordinary store.

This makes the 64-bit wishbone buses have the address expressed in

We have two stages of forwarding to cover the two cycles of latency
between when something is written to BRAM and when that new data can
be read from BRAM. When the writes to BRAM result from store
instructions, the write may write only some bytes of a row (8 bytes)
and not others, so we have a mask to enable only the written bytes to
be forwarded. However, we only forward written data from either the
first stage of forwarding or the second, not both. So if we have
two stores in succession that write different bytes of the same row,
and then a load from the row, we will only forward the data from the
second store, and miss the data from the first store; thus the load
will get the wrong value.
To fix this, we make the decision on which forward stage to use for
each byte individually. This results in a 4-input multiplexer feeding
r1.data_out, with its inputs being the BRAM, the wishbone, the current
write data, and the 2nd-stage forwarding register. Each byte of the
multiplexer is separately controlled. The code for this multiplexer
is moved to the dcache_fast_hit process since it is used for cache
hits as well as cache misses.
This also simplifies the BRAM code by ensuring that we can use the
same source for the BRAM address and way selection for writes, whether
we are writing store data or cache line refill data from memory.

This moves the way multiplexer for the data from the BRAM, and the
multiplexers for forwarding data from earlier stores or refills,
before a clock edge rather than after, so that now the data output
from the dcache comes from a clean latch. To do this we remove the
extra latch on the output of the data BRAM (i.e. ADD_BUF=false) and
rearrange the logic. The choice whether to forward or not now depends
not on way comparisons but rather on a tag comparisons, for the sake
of timing.

This adds a path where the wishbone that goes out to memory and I/O
also gets fed back to the dcache, which looks for writes that it

This fixes two bugs which show up when multiple operations are in
flight in the dcache, and adds a 'hold' input which will be needed
when loadstore1 is pipelined.
The first bug is that dcache needs to sample the data for a store on
the cycle after the store request comes in even if the store request
is held up because of a previous request (e.g. if the previous request
is a load miss or a dcbz).
The second bug is that a load request coming in for a cache line being
refilled needs to be handled immediately in the case where it is for
the row whose data arrives on the same cycle. If it is not, then it
will be handled as a separate cache miss and the cache line will be
refilled again into a different way, leading to two ways both being
valid for the same tag. This can lead to data corruption, in the
scenario where subsequent writes go to one of the ways and then that
way gets displaced but the other way doesn't. This bug could in
principle show up even without having multiple operations in flight in
the dcache.

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 puts the inputs to the TLB PLRU through a register stage, so
the TLB PLRU update is done in the cycle after the TLB tag

The PLRU output is only used when writing the TLB in response to
a tlbwe request from the MMU, and that doesn't happen within one
cycle of a virtual-mode load or store, so the fact that the
tlb victim way information is delayed by one cycle doesn't

the PLRU when r1.write_tag = 1 and from r1.store_way at other times,

This implements various improvements to the dcache with the aim of
making it go faster.
- We can now execute operations that don't need to access main memory
(cacheable loads that hit in the cache and TLB operations) as soon
as any previous operation has completed, without waiting for the
state machine to become idle.
- Cache line refills start with the doubleword that is needed to
satisfy the load that initiated them.
- Cacheable loads that miss return their data and complete as soon as
the requested doubleword comes back from memory; they don't wait for
the refill to finish.
- We now have per-doubleword valid bits for the cache line being
refilled, meaning that if a load comes in for a line that is in the
process of being refilled, we can return the data and complete it
within a couple of cycles of the doubleword coming in from memory.
- There is now a bypass path for data being written to the cache RAM
so that we can do a store hit followed immediately by a load hit to
the same doubleword. This also makes the data from a refill
available to load hits one cycle earlier than it would be otherwise.
- Stores complete in the cycle where their wishbone operation is
initiated, without waiting for the wishbone cycle to complete.
- During the wishbone cycle for a store, if another store comes in
that is to the same page, and we don't have a stall from the
wishbone, we can send out the write for the second store in the same
wishbone cycle and without going through the IDLE state first. We
limit it to 7 outstanding writes that have not yet been
acknowledged.
- The cache tag RAM is now read on a clock edge rather than being
combinatorial for reading. Its width is rounded up to a multiple of
8 bits per way so that byte enables can be used for writing
individual tags.
- The cache tag RAM is now written a cycle later than previously, in
order to ease timing.
- Data for a store hit is now written one cycle later than
previously. This eases timing since we don't have to get through
the tag matching and on to the write enable within a single cycle.
The 2-stage bypass path means we can still handle a load hit on
either of the two cycles after the store and return the correct
data. (A load hit 3 or more cycles later will get the correct data
from the BRAM.)
- Operations can sit in r0 while there is an uncompleted operation in
r1. Once the operation in r1 is completed, the operation in r0
spends one cycle in r0 for TLB/cache tag lookup and then gets put
into r1.req. This can happen before r1 gets to the IDLE state.
Some operations can then be completed before r1 gets to the IDLE
state - a load miss to the cache line being refilled, or a store to
the same page as a previous store.

This logs 256 bits of data per cycle to a ring buffer in BRAM. The
data collected can be read out through 2 new SPRs or through the
debug interface.
The new SPRs are LOG_ADDR (724) and LOG_DATA (725). LOG_ADDR contains
the buffer write pointer in the upper 32 bits (in units of entries,
i.e. 32 bytes) and the read pointer in the lower 32 bits (in units of
doublewords, i.e. 8 bytes). Reading LOG_DATA gives the doubleword
from the buffer at the read pointer and increments the read pointer.
Setting bit 31 of LOG_ADDR inhibits the trace log system from writing
to the log buffer, so the contents are stable and can be read.
There are two new debug addresses which function similarly to the
LOG_ADDR and LOG_DATA SPRs. The log is frozen while either or both of
the LOG_ADDR SPR bit 31 or the debug LOG_ADDR register bit 31 are set.
The buffer defaults to 2048 entries, i.e. 64kB. The size is set by
the LOG_LENGTH generic on the core_debug module. Software can
determine the length of the buffer because the length is ORed into the
buffer write pointer in the upper 32 bits of LOG_ADDR. Hence the
length of the buffer can be calculated as 1 << (31 - clz(LOG_ADDR)).
There is a program to format the log entries in a somewhat readable
fashion in scripts/fmt_log/fmt_log.c. The log_entry struct in that
file describes the layout of the bits in the log entries.

This is required by the architecture. It means that the error bits

somewhat breaks the software-loaded TLB mode of operation in that
DSISR/SRR1 always report no PTE rather than permission error or
RC failure.
This also restructures the loadstore1 state machine a bit, combining
the FIRST_ACK_WAIT and LAST_ACK_WAIT states into a single state and
the MMU_LOOKUP_1ST and MMU_LOOKUP_LAST states likewise. We now have a
'dwords_done' bit to say whether the first transfer of two (for an
unaligned access) has been done.

the cache) is now the only cause of DSI from the dcache. This should

This adds the necessary machinery to the MMU for it to do radix page
table walks. The core elements are a shifter that can shift the
address right by between 0 and 47 bits, a mask generator that can
generate a mask of between 5 and 16 bits, a final mask generator,
and new states in the state machine.
(The final mask generator is used for transferring bits of the
original address into the resulting TLB entry when the leaf PTE
corresponds to a page size larger than 4kB.)
The hardware does not implement a partition table or a process table.
Software is expected to load the appropriate process table entry
into a new SPR called PGTBL0, SPR 720. The contents should be
formatted as described in Book III section 5.7.6.2 of the Power ISA
v3.0B. PGTBL0 is set to 0 on hard reset. At present, the top two bits
of the address (the quadrant) are ignored.
There is currently no caching of any step in the translation process
or of the final result, other than the entry created in the dTLB.
That entry is a 4k page entry even if the leaf PTE found in the walk
corresponds to a larger page size.
This implementation can handle almost any page table layout and any
page size. The RTS field (in PGTBL0) can have any value between 0
and 31, corresponding to a total address space size between 2^31
and 2^62 bytes. The RPDS field of PGTBL0 can be any value between
5 and 16, except that a value of 0 is taken to disable radix page
table walking (for use when one is using software loading of TLB
entries). The NLS field of the page directory entries can have any
value between 5 and 16. The minimum page size is 4kB, meaning that
the sum of RPDS and the NLS values of the PDEs found on the path to
a leaf PTE must be less than or equal to RTS + 31 - 12.
The PGTBL0 SPR is in the mmu module; thus this adds a path for
loadstore1 to read and write SPRs in mmu. This adds code in dcache
to service doubleword read requests from the MMU, as well as requests
to write dTLB entries.

In addition, ATT(0) is used to indicate a cache-inhibited access.

This adds a TLB to dcache, providing the ability to translate
addresses for loads and stores. No protection mechanism has been
implemented yet. The MSR_DR bit controls whether addresses are
translated through the TLB.
The TLB is a fixed-pagesize, set-associative cache. Currently
the page size is 4kB and the TLB is 2-way set associative with 64
entries per set.
This implements the tlbie instruction. RB bits 10 and 11 control
whether the whole TLB is invalidated (if either bit is 1) or just
a single entry corresponding to the effective page number in bits
12-63 of RB.
As an extension until we get a hardware page table walk, a tlbie
instruction with RB bits 9-11 set to 001 will load an entry into
the TLB. The TLB entry value is in RS in the format of a radix PTE.
Currently there is no proper handling of TLB misses. The load or
store will not be performed but no interrupt is generated.
In order to make timing at 100MHz on the Arty A7-100, we compare
the real address from each way of the TLB with the tag from each way
of the cache in parallel (requiring # TLB ways * # cache ways
comparators). Then the result is selected based on which way hit in
the TLB. That avoids a timing path going through the TLB EA
comparators, the multiplexer that selects the RA, and the cache tag
comparators.
The hack where addresses of the form 0xc------- are marked as
cache-inhibited is kept for now but restricted to real-mode accesses.

This adds logic to dcache and loadstore1 to implement dcbz. For now
it zeroes a single cache line (by default 64 bytes), not 128 bytes
like IBM Power processors do.
The dcbz operation is performed much like a load miss, except that
we are writing zeroes to memory instead of reading. As each ack
comes back, we write zeroes to the BRAM instead of data from memory.
In this way we zero the line in memory and also zero the line of
cache memory, establishing the line in the cache if it wasn't already
resident. If it was already resident then we overwrite the existing
line in the cache.

So that the dcache could in future be used by an MMU, this moves
logic to do with data formatting, rA updates for update-form
instructions, and handling of unaligned loads and stores out of
dcache and into loadstore1. For now, dcache connects only to
loadstore1, and loadstore1 now has the connection to writeback.
Dcache generates a stall signal to loadstore1 which indicates that
the request presented in the current cycle was not accepted and
should be presented again. However, loadstore1 doesn't currently
use it because we know that we can never hit the circumstances
where it might be set.
For unaligned transfers, loadstore1 generates two requests to
dcache back-to-back, and then waits to see two acks back from
dcache (cycles where d_in.valid is true).
Loadstore1 now has a FSM for tracking how many acks we are
expecting from dcache and for doing the rA update cycles when
necessary. Handling for reservations and conditional stores is
still in dcache.
Loadstore1 now generates its own stall signal back to decode2,
so we no longer need the logic in execute1 that generated the stall
for the first two cycles.

Since we removed one cycle from the load hit case, we actually no
longer need the extra cycle provided by having the LOAD_UPDATE
state. Therefore this makes the load hit case in the IDLE and
NEXT_DWORD states go to LOAD_UPDATE2 rather than LOAD_UPDATE.
Then we remove LOAD_UPDATE and then rename LOAD_UPDATE2 to
LOAD_UPDATE.

Currently we don't get the result from a load that hits in the dcache
until the fourth cycle after the instruction was presented to
loadstore1. This trims this back to 3 cycles by taking the low order
bits of the address generated in loadstore1 into dcache directly (not
via the output register of loadstore1) and using them to address the
read port of the dcache data RAM. We use the lower 12 address bits
here in the expectation that any reasonable data cache design will
have a set size of 4kB or less in order to avoid the aliasing problems
that can arise with a virtually-indexed physically-tagged cache if
the set size is greater than the smallest page size provided by the
MMU.
With this we can get rid of r2 and drive the signals going to
writeback from r1, since the load hit data is now available one
cycle earlier. We need a multiplexer on the read address of the
data cache RAM in order to handle the second doubleword of an
unaligned access.
One small complication is that we now need an extra cycle in the case
of an unaligned load which misses in the data cache and which reads
the 2nd-last and last doublewords of a cache line. This is the reason
for the PRE_NEXT_DWORD state; if we just go straight to NEXT_DWORD
then we end up having the write of the last doubleword of the cache
line and the read of that same doubleword occurring in the same
cycle, which means we read stale data rather than the just-fetched
data.

This involves plumbing the (existing) 'reserve' and 'rc' bits in
the decode tables down to dcache, and 'rc' and 'store_done' bits
from dcache to writeback.
It turns out that we had 'RC' set in the 'rc' column for several
ordinary stores and for the attn instruction. This corrects them
to 'NONE', and sets the 'rc' column to 'ONE' for the conditional
stores.
In writeback we now have logic to set CR0 when the input from dcache
has rc = 1.
In dcache we have the reservation itself, which has a valid bit
and the address down to cache line granularity. We don't currently
store the reservation length. For a store conditional which fails,
we set a 'cancel_store' signal which inhibits the write to the
cache and prevents the state machine from starting a bus cycle or
going to the STORE_WAIT_ACK state. Instead we set r1.stcx_fail
which causes the instruction to complete in the next cycle with
rc=1 and store_done=0.
