//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

//! Module for cacheing SPR accesses by the debug unit

//! SPR reads and writes through the Debug Unit via JTAG are time

//! consuming - of the order of 1000 CPU clock cycles. However when the

//! processor is stalled the values cannot change, other than through the

//! debug unit, so it makes sense to cache values.

//! @note It is not strictly true that SPRs do not change. If the NPC is

//!       written, it flushes the pipeline, and subsequent reads will return

//!       zero until the processor is unstalled and the pipeline has

//!       refilled. However for our purposes, it is convenient to return the

//!       value written into the NPC in such circumstances.

//!

//! The cache is represented as a closed hash table, which is generally

//! allowed to be no more than 70% full (however NPC is always

//! cacheable). The hash function is a simple modulo function, stepping

//! forward to the first free slot. This works because there is no function to

//! delete an entry - just to clear the whole table, so holes cannot appear.
