This reduces the number of different things that are assigned to
the result variable.
- The computations for the popcnt, prty, cmpb and exts instruction
families are moved into the logical unit.
- The result of mfspr from the slow SPRs is computed in 'spr_val'
before being assigned to 'result'.
- Writes to LR as a result of a blr or bclr instruction are done
through the exc_write path to writeback.
This eases timing considerably.

This implements a simple branch predictor in the decode1 stage. If it
sees that the instruction is b or bc and the branch is predicted to be
taken, it sends a flush and redirect upstream (to icache and fetch1)
to redirect fetching to the branch target. The prediction is sent
downstream with the branch instruction, and execute1 now only sends
a flush/redirect upstream if the prediction was wrong. Unconditional
branches are always predicted to be taken, and conditional branches
are predicted to be taken if and only if the offset is negative.
Branches that take the branch address from a register (bclr, bcctr)
are predicted not taken, as we don't have any way to predict the
branch address.
Since we can now have a mflr being executed immediately after a bl
or bcl, we now track the update to LR in the hazard tracker, using
the second write register field that is used to track RA updates for
update-form loads and stores.
For those branches that update LR but don't write any other result
(i.e. that don't decrementer CTR), we now write back LR in the same
cycle as the instruction rather than taking a second cycle for the
LR writeback.

This reduces the number of cycles where loadstore1 asserts its busy
output, leading to increased throughput of loads and stores. Loads
that hit in the cache can now be executed at the rate of one every two
cycles. Stores take 4 cycles assuming the wishbone slave responds
with an ack the cycle after we assert strobe.
To achieve this, the state machine code is split into two parts, one
for when we have an existing instruction in progress, and one for
starting a new instruction. We can now combinatorially clear busy and
start a new instruction in the same cycle that we get a done signal
from the dcache; in other words we are completing one instruction and
potentially writing back results in the same cycle that we start a new
instruction and send its address and data to the dcache.

This changes the instruction dependency tracking so that we can
generate a "busy" signal from execute1 and loadstore1 which comes
along one cycle later than the current "stall" signal. This will
enable us to signal busy cycles only when we need to from loadstore1.
The "busy" signal from execute1/loadstore1 indicates "I didn't take
the thing you gave me on this cycle", as distinct from the previous
stall signal which meant "I took that but don't give me anything
next cycle". That means that decode2 proactively gives execute1
a new instruction as soon as it has taken the previous one (assuming
there is a valid instruction available from decode1), and that then
sits in decode2's output until execute1 can take it. So instructions
are issued by decode2 somewhat earlier than they used to be.
Decode2 now only signals a stall upstream when its output buffer is
full, meaning that we can fill up bubbles in the upstream pipe while a
long instruction is executing. This gives a small boost in
performance.
This also adds dependency tracking for rA updates by update-form
load/store instructions.
The GPR and CR hazard detection machinery now has one extra stage,
which may not be strictly necessary. Some of the code now really
only applies to PIPELINE_DEPTH=1.

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.

By adding logic to decode2 to be able to send the instruction address

Slbia (with IH=7) is used in the Linux kernel to flush the ERATs

This moves the logic to work out whether to flush a single entry

This hooks up the connections so that an OP_FETCH_FAILED coming down
to loadstore1 will get sent to the MMU for it to do a radix tree walk
for the instruction address. The MMU then sends the resulting PTE to
the icache module to be installed in the iTLB. If no valid PTE can
be found, the MMU sends an error signal back to loadstore1 which sends
it on to execute1 to generate an ISI.

This adds a direct-mapped TLB to the icache, with 64 entries by default.
Execute1 now sends a "virt_mode" signal from MSR[IR] to fetch1 along
with redirects to indicate whether instruction addresses should be
translated through the TLB, and fetch1 sends that on to icache.
Similarly a "priv_mode" signal is sent to indicate the privilege
mode for instruction fetches. This means that changes to MSR[IR]
or MSR[PR] don't take effect until the next redirect, meaning an
isync, rfid, branch, etc.
The icache uses a hash of the effective address (i.e. next instruction
address) to index the TLB. The hash is an XOR of three fields of the
address; with a 64-entry TLB, the fields are bits 12--17, 18--23 and
24--29 of the address. TLB invalidations simply invalidate the
indexed TLB entry without checking the contents.
If the icache detects a TLB miss with virt_mode=1, it will send a
fetch_failed indication through fetch2 to decode1, which will turn it
into a special OP_FETCH_FAILED opcode with unit=LDST. That will get
sent down to loadstore1 which will currently just raise a Instruction
Storage Interrupt (0x400) exception.
One bit in the PTE obtained from the TLB is used to check whether an
instruction access is allowed -- the privilege bit (bit 3). If bit 3
is 1 and priv_mode=0, then a fetch_failed indication is sent down to
fetch2 and to decode1, which generates an OP_FETCH_FAILED. Any PTEs
with PTE bit 0 (EAA[3]) clear or bit 8 (R) clear should not be put
into the iTLB since such PTEs would not allow execution by any
context.
Tlbie operations get sent from mmu to icache over a new connection.
Unfortunately the privileged instruction tests are broken for now.

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 adds logic to the dcache to check the permissions encoded in

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.

errors, and machinery in execute1 for generating data storage
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

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.

During slow instructions such as multiply or divide, if a decrementer

In preparation for adding a TLB to the dcache, this plumbs the

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,

for the first two cycles.

This involves plumbing the (existing) 'reserve' and 'rc' bits in
the decode tables down to dcache, and 'rc' and 'store_done' bits

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.

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 handles OP_CMP like a subtraction; the main adder computes
~RA + RB + 1, and the condition codes are computed from the results.
A direct comparison of the two input operands is used to calculate the
EQ bit of the condition result. The LT and GT bits are computed from
the MSB of the subtraction result, the carry out from the subtraction,
and the MSBs of the operands. For a 32-bit comparison, the 32-bit
carry and bit 31 of the result and input operands are used; for a
64-bit comparison, the 64-bit carry and bit 63 of the operands and
result are used.
It turns out to be more convenient to use the 'signed' field of
the decode table to distinguish signed from unsigned comparisons,
rather than the insn_type. Therefore this uses OP_CMP for both
cmp and cmpl, which also has the benefit of reducing the number
of values in insn_type_t.
Doing this saves over 200 slice LUTs on the Arty A7-100 and improves
