78 Added a serial debug port (using UART0) to boot-loader-ethmac csantifort 4138d 03h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
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 4146d 00h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
63 Add support for Xilinx ISim Verilog simulator.
Remove Virtex-6 files.
csantifort 4146d 05h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
61 Add new netowkr based boot loader.
Remove support for Virtex. Spartan 6 only now.
csantifort 4432d 23h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
60 Bug fix; removed a combinational loop from the a25_decode logic. csantifort 4650d 19h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
58 Use TB.clk_count for the decompiler messages and removed the local counter csantifort 4720d 20h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
57 Add some debug messages csantifort 4720d 20h /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 4737d 20h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
53 Cleaned up Amber Verilog, removing unused signals. csantifort 4752d 18h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
52 Fixed typo in notes on creating DDR memory interfaces using coregen csantifort 4752d 18h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
49 Added a note n how to change timeouts csantifort 4793d 18h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
47 Changed V6 VCo from 1000Mhz to 1200 MHz csantifort 4817d 21h /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 4825d 20h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
42 Added write buffer - fixes bug if wishbone writes takes multiple cycles to complete csantifort 4843d 16h /amber/trunk/hw/vlog/
