The interconnection network as - * described here is not a physical network, but a programming concept - * used to implement all communication between components. Thus parts - * of this 'network' may model the on-chip connections between cache - * controllers and directory controllers as well as the links between - * chip and network switches. - * - * Two conceptual networks, an address and data network, are modeled. - * The data network is unordered, where the address network provides - * and conforms to a global ordering of all transactions. - * - * Currently the data network is point-to-point and the address - * network is a broadcast network. These two distinct conceptual - * network can be modeled as physically separate networks or - * multiplexed over a single physical network. - * - * The network encapsulates all notion of virtual global time and is - * responsible for ordering the network transactions received. This - * hides all of these ordering details from the processor/cache and - * directory/memory modules. - * - * FIXME: Various flavor of networks are provided as a compiler time - * configurable. We currently include this SimpleNetwork in the - * makefile's vpath, so that SimpleNetwork.cc can provide an alternative - * version constructor for the abstract Network class. It is easy to - * modify this to make network a runtime configuable. Just make the - * abstract Network class take a enumeration parameter, and based on - * that to initial proper network. Or even better, just make the ruby - * system initializer choose the proper network to initiate. - */ - #ifndef __MEM_RUBY_NETWORK_SIMPLE_SIMPLENETWORK_HH__ #define __MEM_RUBY_NETWORK_SIMPLE_SIMPLENETWORK_HH__ |
