            Bug ID: 671
           Summary: convert spec pseudocode to use XLEN width
           Product: Libre-SOC's first SoC
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: CONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: ---
         Component: Source Code
          Assignee: lkcl at lkcl.net
          Reporter: lkcl at lkcl.net
                CC: libre-soc-bugs at lists.libre-soc.org
   NLnet milestone: ---
all pseudocode needs to use XLEN width instead of
hard-coded values 64 as width.
due to MSB0 numbering GREAT CARE NEEDS TO BE TAKEN
    RS[56:63]
becomes
    RS[XLEN-8:XLEN-1]
things that operate on the entire number such as Logical XOR
or "add" instructions DO NOT need conversion.
    Pseudo-code:
    RT <- (RA|0) + EXTS(SI)
does NOT need conversion.
    prod[0:127] <- MULS((RA), EXTS(SI))
    RT <- prod[64:127]
needs conversion to:
    prod[0:XLEN*2] <- MULS(.....)
    RT <- prod[XLEN:XLEN*2-1]
