Removed/disabled NTSC from design, as the tiny HDMI monitor is practically always used. Also greatly increased L2 cache size, although no performance benefits for the relatively small programs I currently use for benchmarking.

Integrated valid bits into cache block ram. Reset now iteratively clears the entire cache. Allows for much lower FPGA usage and better timings. Should be able to greatly increase cache size as there is an abundance of BRAM.

Removed leftover ccache instructions from debugging instability problems. Commented out required ccache instructions for when L1I cache returns in the future.

New arbiter that further improves performance by removing latency for instruction memory access. Created instability again, which I found to be caused by bad interrupt timings. Fixed by changing the interruptValid wire to use branch_MEM for alignment. I do not know why this fixed all problems as it is very hard to simulate this issue. L1 cache should be possible again!

L2 cache at 100MHz now greatly increases performance. Attempted to create l1i and l1d cache, but becomes unstable and the issue is difficult to similate/replicate. Therefore, all l1 cache is now bypassed and the code can be found in l1cacheUnstable.v. As no l1 cache anymore, I removed some ccache statements to increase performance as this instruction currently does nothing.

Fixed instability by adding clear cache instruction during SPI transfer. No idea why this fixed the issue, as the I/O address range is above the limit for cache to work.

Improved reset for cache. Disabled l2 cache as it currently reduces performance. Added more CCache instructions to code, although likely not needed. Still instability issues when L1I cache is enabled.

Added L1I cache. Added clear cache instruction, which is now added in the UART bootloader and BDOS program loaders. Fixed too fast read part in SPI flasher. Snake userbdos program now sometimes crashes, which needs further investigation.

Added L1D cache. Currently only works stable when valid bit is set 0 on WRITE. Valid bit 1 after cache miss read works fine for some reason.

Added L2 cache (no L1 for now) between CPU and SDRAM controller. No noticable performance difference, can likely be optimized further to reduce cache hit latency.

New SDRAM controller that uses both SDRAM chips. Now separate bus from MU for better performance, as controller runs at 100MHz. Also updated some debug code as debugging was needed. Tested working in hardware. 2x performance boost in some cases.
