sb0: I just really like the idea. I've used verilog some before, but I write Python for my day job. I was excited to see what Migen could do.
<barmstrong>
sb0: I'm just going to try writing a cpu and then a small computer and then write a kernel for it
<barmstrong>
the good stuff :)
<sb0>
what about rewriting LM32 with Migen? :)
<barmstrong>
That's tempting. I'm hacking out a DLX implementation to get my feet wet.
<barmstrong>
I wanted to try to make a MIPS next
<barmstrong>
lm32 has a lot of mips features, right?
<sb0>
I'd say it's a bit simpler, doesn't have patent trolls behind it, can be implemented very well in FPGAs, and if well-done the Migen implementation could become the official CPU for milkymist-ng and get used in a bunch of stuff
<sb0>
also, there's some work ongoing on direct Migen-to-EDIF synthesis
<sb0>
and LM32 is the last big chunk of Verilog remaining in milkymist-ng, which would cause problems to get rid of Xst (and then the other ISE tools)
<barmstrong>
hmm. interesting :)
<barmstrong>
it looked like the opcodes were sort of mips-inspired
<sb0>
and finally, you can always look at the original Verilog to help you
<barmstrong>
by the way, have you played with django much? specifically, the orm
<sb0>
I think it's fair to say it's one of the most tested open source softcore CPUs...
<barmstrong>
there's some really magical stuff they do that i think might be interesting in migen, but i'm brand new to migen
<barmstrong>
so I could be totally off the mark
<sb0>
no, I haven't touched Django much
<sb0>
do you have a link/examples of those orm features?
<barmstrong>
huh, i hadn't thought of the verilog being there, but that's a good point
