@vup hm, with ASICs the toolchain will have to lower the abstract memory somehow, which isn't really something that happens today in the first place

well yeah, with ASIC currently I use some memory compiler to lower by hand, but not every kind of memory is supported, for example for the technology I am using there is no memory compiler for async read memories

I was looking at VGA video modes just recently!
<whitequark[cis]>
from a quick look, I'm not sure offhand if there'll be enough capacity to maintain it upstream in -stdio; VGA is pretty dated by this point

Up to you to decide; I could keep some maintenance responsibility even if code is upstreamed. Also I believe DVI-D/HDMI is still based on VGA using similar hsync/vsync principles.
<whitequark[cis]>
yeah, it would be quite interesting to do that once the IO subsystem is mature (we still need to add "IO wiring" without which it's a real pain to use)
<Seb[m]>
yeah it's unfortunately still got quite some ECP5-specific vestiges. but interested to migrate over to something more generic.

Is it foreseen to be able to use Amaranth Simulator with CXXRTL ? I may want to monitor output of existing chipset implementations in Verilog or VHDL. Alternative is that I port my Monitor to C++ and couple it with CXXRTL.
