5 days ago That might be doable, but would require some work. I think the first thing we should do is just optimize it. The version we have now is basically an unmodified version copied from Ibex. I'm pretty sure we could make it a lot smaller by being less strict, like the main decoder.
serv_compdec.v occupy too many resourc. Statsisation report that it take about 709 gate, can we not to tranfer it to normal instr, but decode the compact instr directly. the serv_decode only about 100 gate. the following is the statsation from yosys. === serv_compdec ===
