Per the conversation on IRC, I have created a github mirror with what
landley calls the "J1" core: https://github.com/cr1901/jcore-j1
The J1, among other small changes compared to J2, does not have a
single-cycle multiplier. All of the FPGAs HDMI2USB are using have hardware
multipliers, so I may very well patch the core to create a "CPU-core-only"
J2 distribution.
I assume J3/J4 would not share the same repo as J2? I think J3/J4 would be a
separate port to LiteX/MiSoC.

Subject: Adding SH2/SH4 support to LiteX using J-Core?
Hence, I'm really interested in adding "J-Core" / sh2+sh4 support to that
list and wanted advice about the best way to approach this problem. As we
already have our own set of peripherals (UART, DDR controller, Ethernet,
etc) we just want to use the CPU core rather than your full SoC. Do you have
any advice on the best way to do this? What would be the best way to extract
"just the CPU"?
Sincerely,
