FPGA Synthesis
--------------
FPGA synthesis is supported for Ibex when the flip-flop based register file is used.
Since latches are not well supported on FPGAs, it is crucial to select the flip-flop based register file.
FPGA Synthesis is supported for Ibex.
The FPGA-optimized register file implementation should be used.
The flip-flop based register file is also compatible with FPGA synthesis, however it may result in significantly higher resource utilization.
Since latches are not well supported on FPGAs, the latch-based register file should not be used.
