CSRStorage with write_from_dev=True seems broken in simulation

[mithro]

My understanding is that asserting csr.we should cause the storage to get the contents from csr.dat_w. This doesn't seem to be happening during simulation.

I also found the following;

misoc/misoc/cores/spi2.py

Lines 496 to 497 in 57ebe11

	# FIXME:
	# CSRStorage(write_from_dev=True) broken in sim

The issue seems to be that CSRStorage has a def do_finalize method which is never called.

When you add the object as a submodule, the method fails because of a missing "busword" method. If you give the busword a default argument, simulation seems to start working.

I created the following test to demonstrate the issue;

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import unittest

from migen import *

from litex.soc.interconnect.csr import *


class CSRModule(Module, AutoCSR):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kw):
        self.csr = CSRStorage(*args, **kw)


class TestCSRStorage(unittest.TestCase):

    def assert_csr(self, csr, expected):
        actual = yield from csr.read()
        self.assertEqual(expected, actual)

    def stim_csr_write(self, dut, values, mask):
        yield from self.assert_csr(dut.csr, 0)
        for v in values:
            yield from dut.csr.write(v)
            yield from self.assert_csr(dut.csr, v & mask)

    def test_readwrite_nibble(self):
        dut = CSRModule(size=4)
        stim = self.stim_csr_write(dut, [0, 0xff, 0x0b, 0xaa], 0x0f)
        run_simulation(dut, stim, vcd_name="vcd/%s.vcd" %  self.id())

    def test_readwrite_byte(self):
        dut = CSRModule(size=8)
        stim = self.stim_csr_write(dut, [0, 0xff, 0x0b, 0xaa], 0xff)
        run_simulation(dut, stim, vcd_name="vcd/%s.vcd" %  self.id())

    def test_readwrite_32bit(self):
        dut = CSRModule(size=32)
        stim = self.stim_csr_write(dut, [0, 0xffffffff, 0x0a0a0a0a, 0xa0a0a0a0], 0xffffffff),
        run_simulation(dut, stim, vcd_name="vcd/%s.vcd" %  self.id())

    def test_readwrite_byte_alignment(self):
        dut = CSRModule(size=16, alignment_bits=8)
        stim = self.stim_csr_write(dut, [0, 0xffff, 0x0a0a, 0xa0a0], 0xff00),
        run_simulation(dut, stim, vcd_name="vcd/%s.vcd" %  self.id())

    def test_readwrite_from_dev(self):

        dut = CSRModule(size=8, write_from_dev=True)

        def stim(glitch=-1):
            yield from self.assert_csr(dut.csr, 0)
            for v in [0, 0xff, 0x0a, 0xa0]:
                # Write the value from the device
                yield dut.csr.dat_w.eq(v)
                yield dut.csr.we.eq(1)
                yield
                yield dut.csr.we.eq(0)

                # Read the CSR value and check it
                actual = yield from dut.csr.read()
                self.assertEqual(actual, v)

        run_simulation(dut, stim(), vcd_name="vcd/%s.vcd" %  self.id())


if __name__ == '__main__':
    import doctest
    doctest.testmod()
    unittest.main()

It currently fails with;

If I make the CSRStorage object a submodule of CSRModule and set busword=8, then;

test_readwrite_32bit (__main__.TestCSRStorage) ... FAIL
test_readwrite_byte (__main__.TestCSRStorage) ... FAIL
test_readwrite_byte_alignment (__main__.TestCSRStorage) ... ok
test_readwrite_from_dev (__main__.TestCSRStorage) ... FAIL

That's an old issue but I came here to say I was also hit by this issue.
