// Filename: 	wbarbiter.v
//
// Project:	Zip CPU -- a small, lightweight, RISC CPU soft core
//
// Purpose:	At some point in time, I might wish to have two masters connect
//		to the same wishbone bus.  As an example, I might wish to have
//		both the instruction fetch and the load/store operators
//		of my Zip CPU access the the same bus.  How shall they both
//		get access to the same resource?  This module allows the
//		wishbone interfaces from two sources to drive the bus, while
//		guaranteeing that only one drives the bus at a time.
//
//		The core logic works like this:
//
//		1. If 'A' or 'B' asserts the o_cyc line, a bus cycle will begin,
//			with acccess granted to whomever requested it.
//		2. If both 'A' and 'B' assert o_cyc at the same time, only 'A'
//			will be granted the bus.  (If the alternating parameter 
//			is set, A and B will alternate who gets the bus in
//			this case.)
//		3. The bus will remain owned by whomever the bus was granted to
//			until they deassert the o_cyc line.
//		4. At the end of a bus cycle, o_cyc is guaranteed to be
//			deasserted (low) for one clock.
//		5. On the next clock, bus arbitration takes place again.  If
//			'A' requests the bus, no matter how long 'B' was
//			waiting, 'A' will then be granted the bus.  (Unless
//			again the alternating parameter is set, then the
//			access is guaranteed to switch to B.)
