--- Comment #21 from Cesar Strauss <cestrauss at gmail.com> ---
I was thinking about the "core stopped" signal for DMI.

I think it could be generated by the AND of all the "o_ready" signals of the
reservation stations. When all reservation stations are ready, it means they
are not processing any instructions, and the core is stopped.

Another way would be to maintain a (small) counter of issued instructions, and
another for retired instructions. When they match, there is no instruction in
flight, and the core is stopped.
