    55This hardware component is a Mips R3000 processor core.
    6 This uses the generic [wiki:Components/VciXcache VciXcache] component to interface

    99The simulation model is actually an instruction set simulator (ISS),
    10 organised as a two-stage pipeline:
    11  * In the first cycle, the instruction fetch, with access to the external instruction cache.
    12  * In the second cycle, the instruction is executed with a possible access to the external data cache.
     10organised as a three-stage pipeline:
     11 * First stage: instruction fetch, with access to the external instruction cache.
     12 * Second stage: instruction is executed with a possible access to the external data cache.
     13 * Third stage: read memory access is written back to registers
     14
    1315The main functional specifications are the following:
     16 * The patented LWL/LWR instructions are not implemented
    1417 * The floating point instructions are not supported
    1518 * There is no TLB, and no hardware support for virtual memory
    16  * All Mips R3000 exceptions are handled, including the memory addressing X_IBE and X_DBE, but the write errors are not precise, due to the posted write buffer in the cache controller.
    17  * A data cache line invalidation mechanism is supported : when a ''lw'' instruction is executed with the GR![0] destination register, a cache line invalidation request is sent to the data cache.
     19 * All Mips R3000 exceptions are handled, including the memory addressing X_IBE and X_DBE,
     20   but the write errors are not precise, due to the posted write buffer in the cache controller.
     21 * A data cache line invalidation mechanism is supported: when a ''LW'' instruction is executed
     22   with the GPR![0] destination register, a cache line invalidation request is sent to the data cache.
