1a003019d6 Actually fixed non-power of 2 issue with RAS.
Added RAS swapping to branch predictor scripts and configurations.

9ec2bfd052 Fixed sutble RAS bug when the stack size was not a power of 2. 2023-09-27 12:00:47 -05:00

3bf2b35704 Wow. The newest version of Vivado does not like the enums as parameters.
The solution is simple.  I changed the type to logic [31:0] and defined macros for the branch predictor types as 32 bit integers.

340aac0934 Got the branch predictor parameterized using Lim's method. Also had to add a global enum included in both cvw.sv and the configs which defines the branch predictor types. This should be synthesizable, but I'll need to double check. 2023-05-26 16:00:14 -05:00
