74 The patch implements barrel shifter using rotate as a main primitive.
The design was optimized for Altera Cyclone III FPGA and can be reused
with other FPGA vendors and products.
The patch integrates the FPGA-optimized barrel shifter into the
Amber 23 core when it is build for Altera FPGA.

The patch reduces footprint from 1178 to 339 LEs keeping Fmax at 57-60 MHz.

73 The patch introduces a new configuration option `A23_RAM_REGISTER_BANK,
which controls instantiation of Amber 23 register bank.
If the option is set, a ram-based variant of the register bank is instantiated.
It can be useful in low-end FPGA designs, where flipflops and muxes are costly.

Altera Cyclone III resource utilization:
- flipflop-based register bank: 1583 combinationals + 856 registers
- ram-based register bank: 268 combinationals + 156 registers

72 5 bit "OH_USR" constant was used when 2 bit "USR" should be used.
Both of the constants are 0.
The fault was introduced by ram-based register bank commit.

71 Original Amber 23 core uses asyncronous implementation of register bank.
It leads to some problems with ram-based implementation of the register bank,
because at least Altera FPGAs uses syncronous ram blocks, so the whole address
needs to be latched.

The patch exposes non-registered versions of register select signals to the
register bank, so the bank can build address and latch it in the syncronous
ram input register.

The patch is a pre-requisite for ram-based register bank implementation on Altera FPGA.

64 Support latest Xilinx ISE 14.5 software. csantifort 4060d 17h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
63 Add support for Xilinx ISim Verilog simulator.
Remove Virtex-6 files.		 csantifort 4060d 21h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
61 Add new netowkr based boot loader.
Remove support for Virtex. Spartan 6 only now.		 csantifort 4347d 15h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
60 Bug fix; removed a combinational loop from the a25_decode logic. csantifort 4565d 12h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
58 Use TB.clk_count for the decompiler messages and removed the local counter csantifort 4635d 12h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
57 Add some debug messages csantifort 4635d 13h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
54 Bug fix for bug reported by Botao Lee. The mode bits in the decode stage did not change immediately
after a mode switch from a teqp instruction, but 1 cycle later. This meant the wrong set of registers
was selected for writing to for 1 clock cycle.		 csantifort 4652d 12h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
53 Cleaned up Amber Verilog, removing unused signals. csantifort 4667d 10h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
52 Fixed typo in notes on creating DDR memory interfaces using coregen csantifort 4667d 10h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
49 Added a note n how to change timeouts csantifort 4708d 10h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
47 Changed V6 VCo from 1000Mhz to 1200 MHz csantifort 4732d 14h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
43 Added support for the flat executable file format to vmlinux, so that the hello-world program is correctly relocated when it is loaded at the end of the vmlinux test.
Changed the Virtex-5 clock configuration to use a 1200MHz VCO frequency and 80MHz system clock frequency.		 csantifort 4740d 12h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
42 Added write buffer - fixes bug if wishbone writes takes multiple cycles to complete csantifort 4758d 09h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
41 Added instructions on how to use Coregen to create the Spartan-6 DDR3 memory interface. csantifort 4759d 17h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
40 Added wishbone bus jitter testing option.
Cleaned up waveform log .do files, now seperate files for a23 and a25 cores.
Added vmlinux executable elf file for running on hardware.		 csantifort 4764d 10h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
39 Added a second level of buffering to a25_wishbone_buf to fix a lockup
bug when write acks to not return immediately, and also to improve performance slightly		 csantifort 4765d 10h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
