Replace references to T8 with L8 in the bounds encoding, and provide … #291

Closed buxtonpaul closed 2 weeks ago

buxtonpaul commented 2 weeks ago

The field T8 is named incorrectly and should be L8 to indicate the field contains bit 8 of the length. Which is used to compute then top field for the capability.

Resolves issue #(290) https://github.com/riscv/riscv-cheri/issues/290

I have re-pushed to the branch fixing both the length typo as well as any line ending issues(I hope)
