Anton Blanchard 817315a886 sim_console: Use cfmakeraw() and add option for ctrl-c to exit sim
No need to open code a bunch of random termios flags, use cfmakeraw().

Most of the time we want ctrl-c to exit the current simulation, so
make that the default.

Anton Blanchard 5f2efde644 Add some information about GHDL backend issues
A number of people have tripped up on GHDL backend issues. We
require either the LLVM or gcc backend, because the mcode backend
can't link against libraries which we use for simulated memory
and UART. Make that clearer, and point people at the Docker images
if they are having issues building ghdl.

Also point at the prebuilt micropython image.

Anton Blanchard db937403ec Initial support for ghdl synthesis
A first pass at ghdl synthesis using yosys and nextpnr. It runs hello world
or micropython if the FPGA has enough block RAM (eg ECP5 85F). The hello
world testcase also loops UART rx to tx in software (ie not a hardware
loopback).

It uses Docker images, so no software needs to be installed. If you prefer
podman you can use that too. Edit Makefile.synth to configure your FPGA,
JTAG device etc.

To build:

make -f Makefile.synth

and to program:

make -f Makefile.synth prog

A few issues:

We need to add PLL support. Right now Microwatt runs at whatever the
external clock frequency is and the baud rate gets scaled by how far off
50MHz it is. This means on the ecp5-evn with a 12 MHz clock rate the baud
rate is a quite strange 27650 (115200 * 50 / 12). On my OrangeCrab with a
50MHz clock the UART is 115200.

It uses a large amount of resources, way more than it should. There are
still some ghdl/yosys issues to be sorted out.

Anton Blanchard a4dbbfda4a Fix Makefile dependency issue with files in vhdl/*
GHDL doesn't seem to have a way to specify the location of the object
file it writes, so right now they are all ending up in the root
directory. The Makefile rules did not reflect that, so make would
continually the files in fpga/*

Fix the rules to match what GHDL is doing.

Paul Mackerras e08ca4ab8e countzero: Add a register to help make timing
This adds a register in the middle of the countzero computation,
so that we now have two cycles to count leading or trailing zeroes
instead of just one.  Execute1 now outputs a one-cycle stall signal
when it encounters a cntlz* or cnttz* instruction.  With this,
the countzero path no longer fails timing on the Artix-7 at 100MHz.

Paul Mackerras b14d982011 execute: Implement bypass from output of execute1 to input
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.

Paul Mackerras 0c714f1be6 execute: Move popcnt and prty instructions into the logical unit
This implements logic in the logical entity to calculate the results
of the popcnt* and prty* instructions.  We now have one insn_type_t
value for the 3 popcnt variants and one for the two prty variants,
using the length field of the decode_rom_t to distinguish between
them.  The implementations in logical.vhdl using recursive
algorithms rather than the simple functions in ppc_fx_insns.vhdl.

This gives a saving of about 140 slice LUTs on the A7-100 and
improves timing slightly.

Paul Mackerras d2ca625b3b execute: Do comparisons using the main adder
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
timing slightly as well.

Paul Mackerras d956846667 execute1: Move EXTS* instruction back into execute1
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.

Paul Mackerras c9a2076dd3 execute1: Remember dest GPR, RC, OE, XER for slow operations
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
need to record those values and then send them back to execute1.
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.

Paul Mackerras 39d18d2738 Make divider hang off the side of execute1
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.

Paul Mackerras 2167186b5f Make multiplier hang off the side of execute1
With this, the multiplier isn't a separate pipe that decode2 issues
instructions to, but rather is a unit that execute1 sends operands
to and which sends the result back to execute1, which then sends it
to writeback.  Execute1 now sends a stall signal when it gets a
multiply instruction until it gets a valid signal back from the
multiplier.

This all means that we no longer need to mark the multiply
instructions as single-issue.
