dataflow_core.v integrates dependency_manager (M6) -> neural_director (M5) -> N_SLOTS x (memory_manager (M4) + neural_processor (M1)) for the first time. A slot's completion (via neural_director's new slot_node_id tracking, an additive port) feeds back as a producer_done event to dependency_manager, waking up any node that depended on it - closing the dataflow loop without external glue. Verified end-to-end (Verilator) on a 3-node DAG: two independent nodes plus a third depending on both, confirmed to dispatch only after both genuinely complete via real neural_processor computation. 4/4 PASS. Real synthesis + nextpnr-ecp5 P&R via a synthesis-only timing harness (bare per-slot backend ports exceed the LFE5U-45F's TRELLIS_IO budget, same pattern as ERR-0005): N_SLOTS=2 -> 165.15 MHz, N_SLOTS=4 -> 133.19 MHz, both PASS at 80MHz, 0 synthesis problems. Scope explicitly deferred to M8 (DEC-0009): M3's BRAM buffers not wired in yet, per-slot Memory Backend Interface ports not arbitrated to one shared PSRAM master yet - both need real measured data before committing to a design, not guessed at here. Logged: simulation/synthesis/timing/benchmark/decisions (DEC-0009)/ experiments (EXP-0008)/errors (ERR-0007, a Yosys chparam-ordering build quirk, not an RTL bug)/development.log, ROADMAP.md updated.

FPGA-Neural V2 — stato roadmap
Fonte del mandato: docs/v2-description.md (root del repository). Baseline
funzionale/numerica/bit-exact: hardware/v1/ (frozen, sola lettura — vedi
hardware/v1/README.md).
Legenda: [ ] non iniziato · [~] in corso · [x] completo (sim+synth+timing
reali, non solo scritto).
- M1 — Neural Processor (
hardware/v2/rtl/neural_processor.v, P8). Bit-exact vs V1 (7/7 test, Verilator), pipeline a 8 stadi funzionante, throughput reale (1 tile/ciclo). Sintesi reale: 0 problemi CHECK, Fmax 183.12 MHz (ACC_WIDTH=32) — vedilogs/experiments.logEXP-0001/EXP-0002,logs/errors.logper 3 bug reali trovati e risolti (2 del toolchain Icarus, 1 RTL). - M2 — Processor Array (
neural_processor_array.v). 1/2/4/8 processor testati (sim concorrenza reale + sintesi/P&R reali). Fmax sempre PASS a 80MHz (159.11→134.70 MHz). Scoperta: il DSP (MULT18X18D), non LUT/FF, satura per primo (88% a N=8) — vedilogs/decisions.logDEC-0005. - M3 — Buffers (
activation_buffer.v,weight_buffer.v,result_buffer.v). Tutti inferiscono DP16KD reale (10/10 test, 6/6 config sintetizzate 0 problemi). Scoperta: il costo BRAM di weight_buffer e' guidato da P_IN (larghezza), non da DEPTH. - M4 — Memory Manager (
memory_manager.v,prefetch_engine.v), backend PSRAM V1 riusato SENZA MODIFICHE. End-to-end reale (3/3 job PASS) con vero neural_processor + vera catena PSRAM V1. 3 bug RTL trovati/risolti (logs/errors.logERR-0006). Fmax 165.86 MHz. - M5 — Neural Director (
neural_director.v), scheduling first-free. 4/4 test PASS (dispatch + coda + backpressure reale su N_SLOTS=2). FSM ridotta a 4 stati, dependency rimandata a M6 (logs/decisions.logDEC-0007). Fmax 250.50 MHz. - M6 — Dependency Manager (
dependency_manager.v), ready/waiting queue, dependency counters, wake-up, producer tracking. 4/4 test PASS (dipendenze multiple + produttore condiviso/piu' consumer). Fmax 155.30 MHz. Forwarding di valori e riuso slot rimandati (logs/decisions.logDEC-0008). - M7 — Dataflow Core (
dataflow_core.v), prima integrazione completa: Dependency Manager (M6) -> Neural Director (M5) -> N_SLOTS x (Memory Manager (M4) + Neural Processor (M1)), loop di wake-up chiuso end-to-end. 4/4 test PASS su un DAG a 3 nodi (node2 dipende da entrambi node0+node1, dispatch confermato solo dopo che ENTRAMBI completano davvero). Sintesi reale 0 problemi a N_SLOTS=2 e N_SLOTS=4. Fmax reale (harness): 165.15 MHz (N_SLOTS=2), 133.19 MHz (N_SLOTS=4). Buffer M3 e arbitraggio PSRAM condiviso rimandati esplicitamente a M8 (logs/decisions.logDEC-0009). - M8 — PSRAM integration, controller V1 non modificato, misura reale.
- M9 — Full benchmark, tabella V1 vs V2 (§32 del mandato).
- M10 — Optimization, solo sulla base dei dati raccolti in M1-M9.
Log
Vedi hardware/v2/logs/ (development.log per la cronologia di sessione,
decisions.log per le decisioni architetturali con motivazione,
experiments.log per ogni EXP-XXXX end-to-end).
Regole non negoziabili attive (§34 del mandato, per riferimento rapido)
- V1 (
hardware/v1/) rimane intatta — mai modificata. - V2 vive esclusivamente sotto
hardware/v2/. - Nessun risultato inventato: THEORETICAL vs SIMULATED vs SYNTHESIZED vs POST-P&R sempre etichettati esplicitamente.
- Ogni modifica/esperimento/decisione registrata nei log, mai persa.
- Ogni esperimento ha un ID univoco, mai riutilizzato — anche i FAIL restano.
