The instruction should transfer a single element from a vector register to a scalar register. Note that this instruction goes against the regular model of scalar and vector operations since...

Add an instruction that queries the "mask state" of vector registers. The instruction should take one or two vector registers as source operands and a scalar register as the destination...

I have not found a good interface for administering users. Users can add themselves easily, but as a Critic admin it would be nice to be able to remove /...

After rebasing (new upstream), any attempt to add an issue to a commit (older than the rebase in this case) will result in a dialog saying "Failed to validate commented...

This is usually not a problem, but in some degenerate cases (still to be investigated) lots of direct mode cache entries may be added, without any preprocessor mode cache entries...

## Problem We already have `SEQ`, and we can branch on `BNS`, for instance. Thus `SNE` appears to be superfluous (eating up encoding space). Investigate if any code sequences would...

Here is a draft of my ideas that I came up with yesterday. ## Caveat emptor Take it for what it is: A sketchbook proof of concept experiment, totally untested....

With late forwarding of the addend, the MADD instruction would work as an MAC with zero latency for consecutive multiply+add operations such as: ``` madd r1, r2, r3 madd r1,...

It should be relatively easy to "pop bubbles" during a stall (i.e. don't propagate the stall signal to earlier stages if a stage is currently holding a bubble).

The ICache is more important than the DCache for most applications, and it is easier to implement. Having an ICache will leave the shared memory bus free for the data...
