[libre-riscv-dev] daily kan-ban 07may2020 update

[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

continuing the daily updates, so everyone knows what everyone is doing.

i worked through the new LD/ST CompUnit, got a first draft which has no
python syntax errors and generates an HDL file, today will be to get its
unit test functional (using the new PortInterface).  if that works quickly
i will move on to integrating it into the score6600 code.

MarketNext are going ahead quickly with a magazine article, i will talk to
them about that today.

we had the bi-weekly call with OpenPOWER Foundation member, Tim Pearson
(Raptor CS), and he pointed us at the LPC Master code (just released) - if
we include this interface in the 180nm ASIC they may end up using it as a
"Boot Management processor" to manage larger POWER9 systems.
