[edit] Fields of the CFG CSR

Document LatticeMico32 Processor Reference Manual v8.0
Page(s) 12-13
Description Bit 3 should be the X field, and bit 4 should be the U field. The U field means that the CPU has user instructions (the documentation says it's "reserved"). "G" bit '1 = data cache is implemented'. This is incorrect -- the G big actually indicates whether debug is implemented.

[edit] EID register

Document LatticeMico32 Processor Reference Manual v8.0
Page(s) 9, table 4
Description EID is described as the LM32 Revision Number. Later text describes this as the "Exception ID", which seems to fit better -- the LM32 Revision is accessible as part of the CFG CSR.

[edit] Verilog configuration options

Document LatticeMico32 Processor Reference Manual v8.0
Page(s) 35, table 16
Description Configuration options have had the CFG_ prefix dropped with no note of this. Either prefix the config options with CFG_, or make a note to this effect in the text. Furthermore, DIVIDE_ENABLED is actually called MC_DIVIDE_ENABLED.

[edit] Cache associativity

Document LatticeMico32 Processor Reference Manual v8.0
Page(s) 37, table 16
Description ICACHE_Associativity and DCACHE_Associativity do not explain clearly what is meant by "associativity" -- in this case, 1=Direct Mapped, 2=two-way set-associative.

[edit] RAISE/SCALL instruction

Document LatticeMico32 Processor Reference Manual v8.0
Page(s) 50/77
Description RAISE instruction (p.50, opcode 101011) is listed in the Instruction Descriptions as "SCALL" (p. 77). There is no indication which of these names is correct.
