Talk:FPUvsSoftfloat
From JopWiki
Some ideas/further suggestions:
- check if the Timer Measurement code gets somehow "optimized" by the compiler and therefore does not match the one used in the call
-
maybe do some max|min evaluations on a number of testcases (low priority)[added to article 2007-07-31] -
how to "invoke" the microcode expansion for FPU native calls (add problem description)[added to article 2007-10-04]

[edit] Nice to have
- SimpCon ready count generated in sc_fpu for earlier restart of the CPU pipeline - we know the cycles from fpu.vhd
- Get the FPU closer to JOP: attach input registers to A and B, provide microcode instructions for fadd, fsub, fmul, and fdiv
- Correct the FPU error
- Get the FPU smaller - there is some duplicated stuff (de/normalize)
