Andrew Waterman 676110bc1f Add cover for a1ebe6da4d 2017-12-07 21:03:42 -08:00
Andrew Waterman a1ebe6da4d Prevent frontend deadlock fetching from uncacheable memory 
After detecting a corrupted BTB, don't speculatively update it until
the next non-speculative fetch.  This prevents the frontend from replaying
forever.

Andrew Waterman d0c6cbba6b Improve frontend branch prediction 
- Put correctness responsibility on Frontend, not IBuf, for improved
  separation of concerns.  Frontend must detect case that the BTB
  predicts a taken branch in the middle of an instruction.

- Pass BTB information down pipeline unconditionally, fixing case that
  screws up the branch history when the BTB misses and the instruction
  is misaligned.

- Remove jumpInFrontend option; it's now unconditional.

- Default to one-bit counters in the BHT.  For tiny BHTs like these, it's
  more resource efficient to have a larger index space than to have
  hysteresis.

frontend replay, reducing a critical path.

Andrew Waterman acca0fccf5 Fix BTB not being refilled on some indirect jumps 
We are overloading the BTB-hit signal to mean that any part of the frontend
changed the control-flow, not just the BTB.  That's the right thing to do for
most of the control logic, but it means the BTB sometimes won't get refilled
when we'd like it to.  This commit makes the frontend use an invalid BTB entry
number when it, rather than the BTB, changes the control flow.  Since the
entry number is invalid, the BTB will treat it as a miss and refill itself.

This is kind of a hack, but a more palatable fix requires reworking the RVC
IBuf, which I don't have time for right now.

Backpedaling on 27b143013f.  Shaving
