Update to 0.5.1rc1

* Compiled but not working properly for me.
  vmlinux kernel that is built from openrisc.net Linux git repository
  does not boot.
  Infinite(?) ERR: 8-bit program load out of memory area: [hexnumer].

* Linux/openrisc does not for me, so network support code is not verified.

* For the record, 0.2.0 also does not works for me.

Changelog:
New in release 0.5.1rc1
=======================

New features (shouldn't be there during a release cycle, but prompted by debug
needs elsewhere in the tool chain).

New option --trace provides a one line dump of instruction executed and any
register or memory location changed after each instruction.

A new configuration option "use_nmi" is added to the programmable interrupt
controller (PIC). This causes interrupt lines 0 and 1 to be non-maskable, but
only in the sense that the corresponding bits in PICMR are hard-wired to 1.

New config setting for memory initialization "exitnops" fills memory with
"l.nop 1", which will cause the simulator to exit. Good for tracking pointer
corruption.

New l.nop opcodes to turn instruction tracing on and off. Good for debugging
applications.

New l.nop opcode to return a random number. Good for applications (like the
Linux kernel) which need access to the host entropy to ensure randomness.

New l.nop opcode to identify that this is an Or1ksim session.  Allows
applications to determine if they are running on Or1ksim or hardware.

No bugs are fixed.

The following bugs are outstanding
* Bug 1973: Or1ksim needs PIC tests.
* But 1931: Or1ksim needs test for l.nop opcodes.
* Bug 1823: Configuration file error line numbers are wrong.
* Bug 1822: ATA configuration is broken. Documented in user guide.
* Bug 1758: Memory controller issues. Workaround in the user guide.


New in release 0.5.0rc3

* Bug 1822: ATA configuration is broken. Documented in user guide.
* Bug 1758: Memory controller issues. Workaround in the user guide.


New in release 0.5.0rc2

* Bug 1846: Casting errors.
* Bug 1824: Memory controller issue (marked as duplicate of Bug 1758).

New in release 0.5.0rc1
=======================

The floating point implementation is now based on John Hauser's "softfloat"
package, ensuring rigorous compliance with the IEEE 754-2008 standard.

The library interface is extended to allow registers and memory to be written
directly and processor stalled and unstalled. This is to allow direct
integration as a simulator in GDB.

Some of the existing library interface functions have different prototypes.

The "include" feature of configuration files (which never worked, but no one
ever noticed) is dropped.

If the configuration file is not found in the local directory, it is searched
for in the ${HOME}/.or1ksim directory, then (for backwards compatibility) the
${HOME}/.or1k directory.

If no simulation file is specified, then sim.cfg is not searched for as a
default.

New options are added -q|--quiet, -V|--verbose, -m|--memory and
--report-memory-errors. The semantics of --nosrv and --src otpions are changed.

There is a configuration option to collect statistics on instruction execution
in binary form.

In previous versions, Bus exceptions were unique in that they produced an
error message on standard output. The default is now for this exception to be
handled silently, unless requested by --report-memory-errors.

The following feature requests have been accepted.
* Feature  393: Integrate Or1ksim in GDB.

The following bugs are fixed.
* Bug 1821: Reference configuration file has defective debug section.
* Bug 1817: Reference configuration file missing from distribution.
* Bug 1795: GDB breakpoints do not work with the instruction cache.

The following bugs are either cannot be reproduced or will not be fixed.

The following bugs are outstanding
* Bug 1824: Memory controller issue (probably the same as Bug 1758).
* Bug 1823: Configuration file error line numbers are wrong.
* Bug 1822: ATA section in configuration file is broken.
* Bug 1816: Error message when target not set is obscure.
* Bug 1813: "make check" fails before installation.
* Bug 1758: Memory controller issues. Workaround in the user guide.
