This is required by the architecture. It means that the error bits
reported in DSISR or SRR1 now come from the permission/RC check done
on the refetched PTE rather than the TLB entry. Unfortunately that
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 paradox error (where a non-cacheable access finds a hit in
the cache) is now the only cause of DSI from the dcache. This should
probably be a machine check rather than DSI in fact.

A data segment interrupt (DSegI) occurs when an address to be
translated by the MMU is outside the range of the radix tree
or the top two bits of the address (the quadrant) are 01 or 10.
This is detected in a new state of the MMU state machine, and
is sent back to loadstore1 as an error, which sends it on to
execute1 to generate an interrupt to the 0x380 vector.

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.

This adds a new module to implement an MMU. At the moment it doesn't
do very much. Tlbie instructions now get sent by loadstore1 to mmu,
which sends them to dcache, rather than loadstore1 sending them
directly to dcache. TLB misses from dcache now get sent by loadstore1
to mmu, which currently just returns an error. Loadstore1 then
generates a DSI in response to the error return from mmu.

This adds logic to the dcache to check the permissions encoded in
the PTE that it gets from the dTLB. The bits that are checked are:
R must be 1
C must be 1 for a store
EAA(0) - if this is 1, MSR[PR] must be 0
EAA(2) must be 1 for a store
EAA(1) | EAA(2) must be 1 for a load
In addition, ATT(0) is used to indicate a cache-inhibited access.
This now implements DSISR bits 36, 38 and 45.
(Bit numbers above correspond to the ISA, i.e. using big-endian
numbering.)
MSR[PR] is now conveyed to loadstore1 for use in permission checking.

interrupts at vector 0x300.
If dcache is given two requests in successive cycles and the
first encounters an error (e.g. a TLB miss), it will now cancel
the second request.
Loadstore1 now responds to errors reported by dcache by sending

Execute1 then writes SRR0 and SRR1 and jumps to the 0x300 Data

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.

In preparation for adding a TLB to the dcache, this plumbs the
insn_type from execute1 through to loadstore1, so that we can have
other operations besides loads and stores (e.g. tlbie) going to
loadstore1 and thence to the dcache. This also plumbs the unit field
of the decode ROM from decode2 through to execute1 to simplify the
logic around which ops need to go to loadstore1.
The load and store data formatting are now not conditional on the
op being OP_LOAD or OP_STORE. This eliminates the inferred latches
clocked by each of the bits of r.op that we were getting previously.

This makes our treatment of the MSR conform better with the ISA.
- On reset, initialize the MSR to have the SF and LE bits set and

- Fix the bit numbering in msr_copy (the code was using big-endian
bit numbers, not little-endian).
- Use constants like MSR_EE to index MSR bits instead of expressions
like '63 - 48', for readability.
- Set MSR[SF, LE] and clear MSR[PR, IR, DR, RI] on interrupts.
- Copy the relevant fields for rfid instead of using msr_copy, because
the partial function fields of the MSR should be left unchanged,
not zeroed. Our implementation of rfid is like the architecture
description of hrfid, because we don't implement hypervisor mode.

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.
Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>
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.

This allows us to use the bypass at the input of execute1 for the
address and data operands for loadstore1.
Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>
This enables back-to-back execution of integer instructions where
the first instruction writes a GPR and the second reads the same
GPR. This is done with a set of multiplexers at the start of
execute1 which enable any of the three input operands to be taken
from the output of execute1 (i.e. r.e.write_data) rather than the
input from decode2 (i.e. e_in.read_data[123]).
This also requires changes to the hazard detection and handling.
Decode2 generates a signal indicating that the GPR being written
is available for bypass, which is true for instructions that are
executed in execute1 (rather than loadstore1/dcache). The
gpr_hazard module stores this "bypassable" bit, and if the same
GPR needs to be read by a subsequent instruction, it outputs a
"use_bypass" signal rather than generating a stall. The
use_bypass signal is then latched at the output of decode2 and
passed down to execute1 to control the input multiplexer.
At the moment there is no bypass on the inputs to loadstore1, but that
is OK because all load and store instructions are marked as
single-issue.

This moves the sign extension done by the extsb, extsh and extsw
instructions back into execute1. This means that we no longer need
any data formatting in writeback for results coming from execute1,
so this modifies writeback so the data formatter inputs come
directly from the loadstore unit output. The condition code
updates for RC=1 form instructions are now done on the value from
execute1 rather than the output of the data formatter, which should
help timing.

For multiply and divide operations, execute1 now records the
destination GPR number, RC and OE from the instruction, and the
XER value. This means that the multiply and divide units don't

This makes the interface to those units a bit simpler. They
simply report an overflow signal along with the result value, and
execute1 takes care of updating XER if necessary.

With this, the divider is a unit that execute1 sends operands to and
which sends its results back to execute1, which then send them to
writeback. Execute1 now sends a stall signal when it gets a divide
or modulus instruction until it gets a valid signal back from the
divider. Divide and modulus instructions are no longer marked as
single-issue.
The data formatting step that used to be done in decode2 for div
and mod instructions is now done in execute1. We also do the
absolute value operation in that same cycle instead of taking an
extra cycle inside the divider for signed operations with a
negative operand.

multiply instruction until it gets a valid signal back from the
multiplier.

This stores the most common SPRs in the register file.

On order to deal with some forms of branch updating both LR and
CTR, we introduced a delayed update of LR after a branch link.
Note: We currently stall the pipeline on such a delayed branch,
but we could avoid stalling fetch in that specific case as we
know we have a branch delay. We could also limit that to the
specific case where we need to update both CTR and LR.

The carry is currently internal to execute1. We don't handle any of

The value is stored in the CR file (though it could be a separate
module). The rest of the bits will be implemented as a separate
SPR and the two parts reconciled in mfspr/mtspr in latter commits.
We always read XER in decode2 (there is little point not to)
and send it down all pipeline branches as it will be needed in
writeback for all type of instructions when CR0:SO needs to be
updated (such forms exist for all pipeline branches even if we don't
yet implement them).
To avoid having to track XER hazards, we forward it back in EX1. This
assumes that other pipeline branches that can modify it (mult and div)
are running single issue for now.
One additional hazard to beware of is an XER:SO modifying instruction
in EX1 followed immediately by a store conditional. Due to our writeback
latency, the store will go down the LSU with the previous XER value,
thus the stcx. will set CR0:SO using an obsolete SO value.
I doubt there exist any code relying on this behaviour being correct
but we should account for it regardless, possibly by ensuring that
stcx. remain single issue initially, or later by adding some minimal
tracking or moving the LSU into the same pipeline as execute.

This adds code to writeback to format data and test the result
against zero for the purpose of setting CR0. The data formatter
is able to shift and mask by bytes and do byte reversal and sign
extension. It can also put together bytes from two input
doublewords to support unaligned loads (including unaligned
byte-reversed loads).
The data formatter starts with an 8:1 multiplexer that is able
to direct any byte of the input to any byte of the output. This
lets us rotate the data and simultaneously byte-reverse it.
The rotated/reversed data goes to a register for the unaligned
cases that overlap two doublewords. Then there is per-byte logic
that does trimming, sign extension, and splicing together bytes
from a previous input doubleword (stored in data_latched) and the
current doubleword. Finally the 64-bit result is tested to set
CR0 if rc = 1.

The goal is to have the icache fit in BRAM by latching the output
into a register. In order to avoid timing issues , we need to give
the BRAM a full cycle on reads, and thus we souce the BRAM address
directly from fetch1 latched NIA.
(Note: This will be problematic if/when we want to hash the address,
we'll probably be better off having fetch1 latch a fully hashed address
along with the normal one, so the icache can use the former to address
the BRAM and pass the latter along)
One difficulty is that we cannot really stall the icache without adding
more combo logic that would break the "one full cycle" BRAM model. This
means that on stalls from decode, by the time we stall fetch1, it has
already gone to the next address, which the icache is already latching.
We work around this by having a "stash" buffer in fetch2 that will stash
away the icache output on a stall, and override the output of the icache
with the content of the stash buffer when unstalling.
This requires a rewrite of the stop/step debug logic as well. We now
do most of the hard work in fetch1 which makes more sense.
Note: Vivado is still not inferring an built-in output register for the
BRAMs. I don't want to add another cycle... I don't fully understand why
it wouldn't be able to treat current_row as such but clearly it won't. At
least the timing seems good enough now for 100Mhz, possibly more.

This aims to simplify the logic between the instruction image and
the register file read address ports and reduce the size of the decode
tables. With this patch, the input_reg_a column of the decode tables
can only select RA or zeroes, the input_reg_b column can only select
RB or a constant (0, -1, or an immediate value from the instruction),
and the input_reg_c columns can only select RS or zeroes.
That means that the rotate/shift/logical ops now have their first
input coming in via the input_reg_c column. That means we need to
add a read_data3 field to the Decode2ToExecuteType record, but that
will go away again when we split out the rotate/mask/logical ops to
their own unit.

the read1_enable signal to the register file be 0 when RA=0 and the

To consolidate all the add/subtract instructions into a single

be inverted, and change the input_carry field to a 3-state selector
to select C in the equation above.

This moves the negation of negative operands for signed divide and
modulus operations out of the decode2 stage and into the divider.
If either of the operands for a signed divide or modulus operation
is negative, the divider now takes an extra cycle to negate the
operands that are negative.
The interface to the divider now has an 'is_signed' signal rather
than a 'neg_result' signal, and the dividend and divisor can be
negative, so divider_tb had to be updated for the new interface.
The reason for doing this is that one of the worst timing violations
on the Arty A7-100 at 100MHz involved the carry chain in the adders
that did the negation of the dividend and divisor in the decode stage.
Moving the negations to a separate cycle fixes that and also seems to
reduce the total number of slice LUTs used.
