| olofk | wallento: Did you see this? https://github.com/openrisc/newlib/pull/2 | 19:36 |
|---|---|---|
| olofk | Are we using openrisc/newlib for anything now, or should we ask him to send the patch upstream directly? | 19:36 |
| * olofk is not super impressed with the dummy register hack in migen | 19:39 | |
| ysionneau | so now you know what it is for? | 19:54 |
| olofk | ysionneau: Yes. I found a chat log | 20:01 |
| olofk | There must be some better way to do it. It's really bad when you want to diff the verilog | 20:02 |
| ysionneau | diffing generated code is most of the time a pain :/ | 20:02 |
| ysionneau | usually I don't look at the verilog, rarely I do so, when I just don't understand something | 20:03 |
| olofk | Yes, that's mostly true, but there are some ways to make it a little less painful, like for example making sure that the order is deterministic | 20:03 |
| olofk | Migen seems to be quite good at not moving around lines | 20:04 |
| ysionneau | yes I agree | 20:07 |
| ysionneau | it should be as painless as possible | 20:07 |
| ysionneau | I guess nobody spent time to "fix" this | 20:07 |
| olofk | Yeah, there's always a few longstanding issues that no one has time to fix in every project | 20:08 |
| ysionneau | yep | 20:08 |
| ysionneau | it's not in the "priority" list | 20:08 |
| ysionneau | if someone is too anoyed by it, maybe he will submit a patch :p | 20:09 |
| ysionneau | that's a strategy! | 20:09 |
| olofk | Yeah, I'd love to fix that, but I'm not up to the task yet. Just learning fhdl (is that what it's called?), and haven't looked at the migen source itself | 20:12 |
| ysionneau | the high level hdl is just called "migen" | 20:17 |
| ysionneau | fragments are the internal stuff | 20:18 |
| olofk | ok, so I'm learning migen then :) | 20:28 |
| olofk | hmm... I might actually have an idea for the dummy registers. Verilog has support for events | 22:29 |
| olofk | hmm.. might not be a solution actually. Oh well. I'll sleep on it | 22:30 |
