- Removed the cfgif block, too confusing. There is a good lesson here. Probably the n'th time I that I have been overzealous about reuse. When you end up adding a parameter to a block that duplicates the logic 2X it's always better to create two separate blocks...
- Changed the register access interface to packet format
- Change the priority on the etx_arbiter to pick read responses first
- Removed redundant signals
- Took away the read resonse bypass on remap in tx for now..
- Removed defparams (convention)
- Unified wait signal on tx
- Fixed cfg wait
-
- Gating mailbox_not empty with irq_en. bit [28] of RXCFG
- Changing elink output interrupt to "or" of not_empty and full
- Adding mailbox status register (mostly for debug)
- Moving register addresses to make space for mailbox status register
- Fixing wrappers for DV
- Updating README docs with new register map
- Removing mailbox from RX status reg. Doesn't belong there, should be coupled with mailbox for modularity.
- This is DEFINITELY the way to do things, sweep the delays and find the right value. No f'ing way to get these stupid FPGAs to work otherwise with the ridiculuosly over margined PVT nubmers they are running through the STAs. I understand they want to make the design bullet proof, but as a result designers are wasting countless hours overoptimzinng designs and being clever. So much performance is left on the table for expert users.
- Lesson: I/O design should be "self syncrhonizing". Only contraints in the design should be create_clk
- Made RX clock async, too tricky to guarantee that there clock is there. No way to do this if the clock sources are actually independent for RX/TX!
-Moved "groups" to E,D,C
-Changed names to EL* (shorter is better, clear enough)
-Moved order to fit logical operation during init
-Moved embox registers to MMR group
DONE!
