Features

ISA Support

Base ISA: RV32I (RISC-V 32-bit Integer Base Instruction Set)
Extensions:
- M: Integer Multiplication and Division
- Zicsr: Control and Status Register (CSR) Instructions
- Zifencei: Instruction-Fetch Fence (FENCE.I)

Microarchitecture

Pipeline: 6-stage (Fetch, Decode, Execute, Memory 1, Memory 2, Writeback)
- MEM1: Memory Access & Store Align
- MEM2: Data Ready (FPGA BRAM Latency) & Load Data Extend
Branch Prediction:
- BHT (Branch History Table): 256 entries. Uses a 2-bit Saturating Counter (Strongly/Weakly Taken/Not Taken) to predict conditional branches. Implemented as LUTRAM.
- BTB (Branch Target Buffer): 256 entries. Stores Valid bit, Entry Type (Branch, Jump, Return), Tag, and Target Address. Implemented as LUTRAM.
- RAS (Return Address Stack): 32 entries. Push on JAL/JALR with call hint (CFHINT_CALL); pop on JALR with return hint (CFHINT_RET). Supports nested function calls.
- Prediction Logic: For branches, pred_taken = bht_taken && btb_hit; for JAL/JALR, pred_taken = btb_hit. No pipeline stalls or flushes on a correct prediction.
Branch Resolution:
- Branch Unit: Resolution & validation in EX stage. Registers inputs for timing optimization (1-cycle latency).
- Recovery: 3-cycle penalty on misprediction (Flush ID/EX/MEM1, redirect PC)
Hazard Handling:
- RAW hazards resolved by forwarding from MEM1/MEM2/WB to EX
- Store-Data hazards resolved by forwarding from WB to MEM1
- Load-Use hazards resolved by 2-cycle pipeline stall + WB to EX forwarding
- Branch Misprediction resolved by pipeline flush
Trap/Exception Support:
- ECALL, EBREAK, MRET
- Illegal Instruction
- Instruction/Data Address Misalign
- Instruction/Data Access Fault
Hardware Multiplier & Divisor:
- Multiplier: Implemented using inferred DSP blocks (via (* use_dsp = "yes" *) synthesis attribute).
- Divisor: Implemented using a custom iterative shift-subtract logic (2x loop unrolled, 16 cycles for 32-bit division).

Clock Domain and Reset

Target FPGA

Board: ALINX AX7Z020B (Zynq-7020)
Input Clock: 50 MHz (onboard oscillator)
Internal Clock: 100 MHz (via MMCM)

Clock and Reset Signals

Signal	Type	Description
`clk`	Input	System clock
`rstn_push`	Input	Active-low asynchronous reset (Button, synchronized with 2-FF + debounce)
`uart_rx`	Input	UART Receive Data
`uart_tx`	Output	UART Transmit Data
`rstn_led`	Output	Reset status LED (active when reset asserted)
`start_led`	Output	CPU run status LED (active when CPU running)

Reset Behavior

Hard Reset: Physical button or MMCM lock.
Soft Reset: Controlled via UART commands during programming.
Initialization: PC resets to 0x00000000, pipeline flushes.

Memory Specifications

Memory Map

Region	Base Address	Size	Description
ROM	`0x00000000`	128 KB	Program ROM (`.text`, `.rodata`, `.data` load image)
RAM	`0x00020000`	128 KB	Data RAM (`.data`, `.bss`, stack)
Stack Top	`0x00040000`	—	Top of RAM (stack grows downward)
PRINT	`0xFFFF0000`	—	MMIO: UART TX output (write)
INPUT	`0xFFFF0004`	—	MMIO: UART RX input (read)

ROM (Read-Only Memory)

Size: 128 KB (32768 words)
Width: 32-bit
Access: Read-only from the CPU; writable via UART programmer before RUN
Contents: Full firmware image. Instruction fetches, .rodata loads, and .data initialization reads come from ROM.

RAM (Random-Access Memory)

Size: 128 KB (32768 words)
Width: 32-bit
Access: Read/Write (byte-enable write strobe)
Initialization: crt0.S copies .data from ROM to RAM and clears .bss before main().
IO Mapping:
- Writes to 0xFFFF_0000 (MMIO_PRINT_ADDR) with data[8] == 0 → RES_PRINT via UART TX.
- Writes to 0xFFFF_0000 with data[8] == 1 → RES_EXIT with data[7:0] as exit code.
- Reads from 0xFFFF_0004 (MMIO_INPUT_ADDR) → returns input_data if RX FIFO non-empty, else 0xFFFFFFFF. Polled by getchar() in syscalls.
Access Fault: Stores to ROM and accesses outside ROM/RAM/MMIO trigger a Data Access Fault trap.

Performance Characteristics

CoreMark Benchmark

Measured on Zynq-7020 FPGA running at 100 MHz (RV32IM, -O2, ITERATIONS=3000).

Metric	Value
CoreMark Score	263.7
CoreMark/MHz	2.64

Dhrystone 2.2 Benchmark

Reference measurement on Zynq-7020 FPGA running at 100 MHz (RV32IM, -O2, NUMBER_OF_RUNS=100000). The current simulation sanity configuration uses NUMBER_OF_RUNS=10.

Metric	Value
Dhrystones/Second	160000
DMIPS	91.0
DMIPS/MHz	0.91

DMIPS = Dhrystones/Second ÷ 1,757 (VAX 11/780 reference = 1 DMIPS)

Hardware Multiplier & Divisor

Multiplier

Inferred DSP48 blocks via (* use_dsp = "yes" *) synthesis attribute.
3-stage pipeline: result available 3 cycles after issue, causing a 3-cycle stall (MUL_COUNT = 3).

Divisor

Algorithm: Shift-compare-subtract. Handles signed/unsigned division and remainder, with special-case handling for divide-by-zero and signed overflow.
2x loop unrolled: computes 2 quotient bits per clock cycle combinatorially.
32-bit division takes 17 cycles total (1 setup + 16 compute), causing a 17-cycle stall (DIV_COUNT = 17, SHIFT_COUNT = 16).

Pipeline Performance

Ideal CPI: 1.0
Actual CPI: Depends on program characteristics (typically 1.1–1.5 due to hazards)

Hazard Penalties

Hazard Type	Penalty (Cycles)	Detection Stage	Notes
Data Hazard (RAW)	0	EX	Forwarding from MEM1/MEM2/WB to EX. Loads are excluded from MEM1/MEM2 path.
Store-Data Hazard	0	MEM1	Forwarding from WB to MEM1 store data register
Load-Use Hazard	2	ID	Stall while load is in EX (`id_ex`) and again in MEM1 (`id_mem1`); 2 bubbles total; result forwarded from WB→EX
Branch Prediction Hit	0	IF	Zero penalty (Seamless execution)
Branch Prediction Miss	3	EX	Flush ID/EX/MEM1 stages; redirect PC to correct target
Multiplication Stall	3	EX	Pipeline stall during multiplication
Division Stall	17	EX	Pipeline stall during division

Trap/Exception Penalties

Standard Output: MMIO-based character output; putchar/printf write characters to MMIO_PRINT_ADDR, sent to host as RES_PRINT packets.
Standard Input: MMIO-based character input; host sends bytes via CMD_INPUT, stored in INPUT_FIFO; getchar/scanf poll MMIO_INPUT_ADDR until a byte is available.

Protocol Specification

1. Configuration

Parameter	Value
Baud Rate	115200 bps
Data Bits	8 bits
Stop Bits	1 bit
Parity	None
Oversampling	16x

FIFO Sizes

FIFO	Size	Description
`INPUT_FIFO`	64 entries	CPU input buffer: stores bytes received via `CMD_INPUT`, read by CPU via `MMIO_INPUT_ADDR`. Flushed on `CMD_RESET`.
`PRINT_FIFO`	2048 entries	CPU output buffer: queues `RES_BOOT`/`RES_PRINT`/`RES_EXIT` packets for UART TX. Flushed on `CMD_RESET`.

2. Packet Structure

RX Packet (Host → FPGA)

START	CMD	LEN	PAYLOAD	CHECKSUM
0xA5	1B	1B	0~252B	1B

Payload: CMD_WRITE — Address (4B) + Data (nB), little-endian.
Checksum: Sum of all bytes (START through last PAYLOAD byte), truncated to 8 bits.

TX Packet (FPGA → Host)

START	RES	LEN	PAYLOAD	CHECKSUM
0xA5	1B	1B	0~1B	1B

3. Commands (CMD)

Command	Code	Description	Payload
CMD_RESET	0x01	Halt and reset CPU	None
CMD_WRITE	0x02	Write to memory	Addr(4B) + Data
CMD_RUN	0x03	Start execution	None
CMD_INPUT	0x04	Send stdin data to CPU RX FIFO	Data (nB)

4. Responses (RES)

Response	Code	LEN	Payload	Description
RES_ACK	0x06	0	None	Command acknowledged

RES_EXIT	0x81	1	Exit code (1B)	Program exited via `_exit()`
RES_PRINT	0x82	1	Character (1B)	MMIO character output
RES_OVERFLOW	0x83	1	Drop count (1B)	TX FIFO overflow: N output events were dropped (max 255)

5. Boot Sequence

Host sends CMD_RUN. The programmer automatically issues CMD_RESET first.
CPU begins execution and immediately sends RES_BOOT (hardware-generated via boot_flag).
Host enters CPU Console; keyboard input becomes active (line-buffered, sent as CMD_INPUT).
User program output follows as RES_PRINT packets; getchar()/scanf() in the program poll MMIO_INPUT_ADDR.
On _exit(code), CPU sends RES_EXIT with the exit code. Console exits.

Note: If PRINT_FIFO overflows, existing entries are preserved and transmitted first. Dropped entries are counted and reported as RES_OVERFLOW after the FIFO drains. Console exits on receiving RES_OVERFLOW.

Software & Tools

Note: The programmer tool is Windows-specific due to Win32 API usage (CreateFileA, ReadFile, WriteFile, etc.).
