hazard handling

Technique WIKI v1 · 5/26/2026

hazard handling is identified as a capability of a 5-stage pipelined MIPS processor implemented in SystemVerilog in the Peggy-Gits/MIPS-CPU repository.

Overview

hazard handling is documented as a capability of a 5-stage pipelined MIPS processor implemented in SystemVerilog. The available evidence states that the processor is capable of hazard handling, but does not provide implementation details about the specific hazard types, detection logic, forwarding paths, stalls, or flush mechanisms used.

Implementation context

The documented context for hazard handling is a 5-stage pipelined MIPS CPU design. The repository description states that the processor is implemented in SystemVerilog and is capable of hazard handling.

Verification context

The same project also includes a UVM verification testbench. The described testbench components include:

  • a randomizing instruction generator
  • a monitor
  • a coverage collector

The evidence does not explicitly state which hazard-handling cases are verified by these components.
