CacheEn enables reading or writing the cache memory arrays. This is only disabled if we have a stall while in the ready state and we don't have a cache miss. This is a cache hit, but we are stalled.

I think I finally fixed a long hidden bug in the replacement policy. The figures in the textbook are correct. There was small bug in the rtl.

Finally fixed the lru bug. It was actually a flush bug all along. At the end of flush writeback FlushAdr is incremented so clearly the dirty bit then clears the wrong set. Must either take an additional cycle to clear dirty and then change the address or clear the dirty bit before the cache bus acknowledgment. Changed it to clear at begining of that line's writeback before actually writting back.

At long last found the subtle bug in the LRU.
...
Since the LRU memory is two ports, 1 read and 1 write, a write in cycle 1 to address x should not
forward data to a read from address y in cycle 2.
A read form address x in cycle 2 would still require forwarding.

Turns out the merge of dirty and tag bits is complicated by the need to have byte write enables rather than bit write enables. Putting on hold for now.

Oups found a bug with my cache changes. I took TrapM out of the logic path for selecting the cache's address CAdr (previously RAdr) to improve the critical path. This is fine for the dcache because both the E and M stages are flushed. However for the ICache only F is flushed. PCNextF is valid and points to XTVEC so the cache must take NextAdr rather than PAdr as CAdr.
