 * Description:  This module simulates a basic DDR-style memory controller
 * (and can easily be extended to do FB-DIMM as well).
 *
 * This module models a single channel, connected to any number of
 * DIMMs with any number of ranks of DRAMs each.  If you want multiple
 * address/data channels, you need to instantiate multiple copies of
 * this module.
 *
 * Each memory request is placed in a queue associated with a specific
 * memory bank.  This queue is of finite size; if the queue is full
 * the request will back up in an (infinite) common queue and will
 * effectively throttle the whole system.  This sort of behavior is
 * intended to be closer to real system behavior than if we had an
 * infinite queue on each bank.  If you want the latter, just make
 * the bank queues unreasonably large.
 *
 * The head item on a bank queue is issued when all of the
 * following are true:
 *   the bank is available
 *   the address path to the DIMM is available
 *   the data path to or from the DIMM is available
 *
 * Note that we are not concerned about fixed offsets in time.  The bank
 * will not be used at the same moment as the address path, but since
 * there is no queue in the DIMM or the DRAM it will be used at a constant
 * number of cycles later, so it is treated as if it is used at the same
 * time.
 *
 * We are assuming closed bank policy; that is, we automatically close
 * each bank after a single read or write.  Adding an option for open
 * bank policy is for future work.
 *
 * We are assuming "posted CAS"; that is, we send the READ or WRITE
 * immediately after the ACTIVATE.  This makes scheduling the address
 * bus trivial; we always schedule a fixed set of cycles.  For DDR-400,
 * this is a set of two cycles; for some configurations such as
 * DDR-800 the parameter tRRD forces this to be set to three cycles.
 *
 * We assume a four-bit-time transfer on the data wires.  This is
 * the minimum burst length for DDR-2.  This would correspond
 * to (for example) a memory where each DIMM is 72 bits wide
 * and DIMMs are ganged in pairs to deliver 64 bytes at a shot.
 * This gives us the same occupancy on the data wires as on the
 * address wires (for the two-address-cycle case).
 *
 * The only non-trivial scheduling problem is the data wires.
 * A write will use the wires earlier in the operation than a read
 * will; typically one cycle earlier as seen at the DRAM, but earlier
 * by a worst-case round-trip wire delay when seen at the memory controller.
 * So, while reads from one rank can be scheduled back-to-back
 * every two cycles, and writes (to any rank) scheduled every two cycles,
 * when a read is followed by a write we need to insert a bubble.
 * Furthermore, consecutive reads from two different ranks may need
 * to insert a bubble due to skew between when one DRAM stops driving the
 * wires and when the other one starts.  (These bubbles are parameters.)
 *
 * This means that when some number of reads and writes are at the
 * heads of their queues, reads could starve writes, and/or reads
 * to the same rank could starve out other requests, since the others
 * would never see the data bus ready.
 * For this reason, we have implemented an anti-starvation feature.
 * A group of requests is marked "old", and a counter is incremented
 * each cycle as long as any request from that batch has not issued.
 * if the counter reaches twice the bank busy time, we hold off any
 * newer requests until all of the "old" requests have issued.
 *
 * We also model tFAW.  This is an obscure DRAM parameter that says
 * that no more than four activate requests can happen within a window
 * of a certain size.  For most configurations this does not come into play,
 * or has very little effect, but it could be used to throttle the power
 * consumption of the DRAM.  In this implementation (unlike in a DRAM
 * data sheet) TFAW is measured in memory bus cycles; i.e. if TFAW = 16
 * then no more than four activates may happen within any 16 cycle window.
 * Refreshes are included in the activates.
