Configurable RISC-V Softcore Processor for FPGA Implementation

The RISC-V been dominated by proprietary architectures that implement Foundation controls the RISC-V evolution, and its members instruction sets that require licensing and the payment of fees to are responsible for promoting the adoption of RISC-V and receive permission so they can be used. ARM is an example of one of those companies that sell its microarchitectures to participating in the development of the new ISA. In the list of the manufactures so they can implement them into their own members are big companies like Google, NVIDIA, Western products, and it does not allow the use of its instruction set Digital, Samsung, or Qualcomm.

Partial Reconfiguration: a Simple Tutorial
Partial Reconfiguration: A Simple Tutorial Richard Neil Pittman Microsoft Research February 2012 Technical Report MSR-TR 2012-19 Microsoft Research Microsoft Corporation One Microsoft Way Redmond, WA 98052 Partial Reconfiguration: A Simple Tutorial A Tutorial for XILINX FPGAs Neil Pittman – 2/12, version 1.0 Introduction Partial Reconfiguration is a feature of modern FPGAs that allows a subset of the logic fabric of a FPGA to dynamically reconfigure while the remaining logic continues to operate unperturbed. Xilinx has provided this feature in their high end FPGAs, the Virtex series, in limited access BETA since the late 1990s. More recently it is a production feature supported by their tools and across their devices since the release of ISE 12. The support for this feature continues to improve in the more recent release of ISE 13. Altera has promised this feature for their new high end devices, but this has not yet materialized. Partial Reconfiguration of FPGAs is a compelling design concept for general purpose reconfigurable systems for its flexibility and extensibility. Despite the significant improvements in software tools and support, the Xilinx partial reconfiguration design option has a reputation for being an expert level flow that is difficult to use. In this tutorial we will show that it can actually be quite simple. As a case study, we apply Partial Reconfiguration to the Simple Interface for Reconfigurable Computing (SIRC) toolset. Combining SIRC and partial reconfiguration makes the idea of general purpose hardware and software user systems deployed on demand on generic platforms viable. The goal is to make developers more confident in the practicality of this concept and in their own ability to use it, so that more will take advantage of what it has to offer. -

The Synopsys FPGA Compiler version 1998.02, Alliance Series 1.5, and the XC4000X family were used in preparing the material for this application note. Introduction designs preserving some levels of hierarchy will lead to better placement routing results and shorter compile times. For smaller designs, optimal quality of results can often be achieved by ungrouping hierarchical boundaries (compile The designer must determine which trade-offs to make to -ungroup_all).
