I think I've tried every possible combination at this point and I am still
unable to make progress. This is the current state of my bpermd.py module, that
at least doesn't just output 0 every time. I think I have tried all possible
permutations of 63-index and 7-index, but still cannot get it to produce
correct results. Can you please give me some guidance?

```
def elaborate(self, platform):
    m = Module()
    perm = Signal(self.width, reset_less=True)
    rb64 = [Signal(1, reset_less=True, name=f"rb64_{i}") for i in range(64)]
    for i in range(64):
        m.d.comb += rb64[i].eq(self.rb[63-i])
        rb64 = Array(rb64)
        for i in range(8):
            index = self.rs[8*(7-i)+8:8*(7-i):-1]
            idx = Signal(8, name=f"idx_{i}", reset_less=True)
            m.d.comb += idx.eq(index)
            with m.If(idx < 64):
                m.d.comb += perm[7-i].eq(rb64[63-idx])
    m.d.comb += self.ra[0:8].eq(perm)
    return m
```
