2018-01-19arch, mem, sim: Consolidate and rename the SE mode page table classes.Gabe Black
Now that Nothing inherits from PageTableBase directly, it can be merged into FuncPageTable. This change also takes the opportunity to rename the combined class to EmulationPageTable which lets you know that it's specifically for SE mode. Also remove the page table entry cache since it doesn't seem to actually improve performance. The TLBs likely absorb the majority of the locality, essentially acting like a cache like they would in real hardware.

2018-01-16arch-riscv: Fix floating-point conversion bugsAlec Roelke
Using the fetestexcept function to check for specific types of floating point exceptions is unreliable for some kinds of floating-point-to-integer conversion operations.

2018-01-15mem: Track TLB entries in the lookup cache as pointers.Gabe Black
Using the architectural page table on x86 and the functional page table on ARM, both with the twolf benchmark in SE mode, there was no performance penalty for doing so, and again possibly a performance improvement. By using a pointer instead of an inline instance, it's possible for the actual type of the TLB entry to be hidden somewhat, taking a step towards abstracting away another aspect of the ISAs. Since the TLB entries are no longer overwritten and now need to be allocated and freed, this change introduces return types from the updateCache and eraseCacheEntry functions. These functions will return the pointer to any entry which has been displaced from the cache which the caller can either free or ignore, depending on whether the entry has a purpose outside of the cache. Because the functional page table stores its entries over a longer time period, it will generally not delete the pointer returned from those functions. The "architechtural" page table, ie the one which is backed by memory, doesn't have any other use for the TlbEntrys and will delete them. That leads to more news and deletes than there used to be. To address that, and also to speed up the architectural page table in general, it would be a good idea to augment the functional page table with an image of the table in memory, instead of replacing it with one. The functional page table would provide quick lookups and also avoid having to translate page table entries to TLB entries, making performance essentially equivalent to the functional case. The backing page tables, which are primarily for consumption by the physical hardware when in KVM, can be updated when mappings change but otherwise left alone. If we end up doing that, we could just let the ISA specific process classes enable whatever additional TLB machinery they need, likely a backing copy in memory, without any knowledge or involvement from the ISA agnostic class. We would be able to get rid of the useArchPT setting and the bits of code in the configs which set it.

2018-01-10alpha,arm,mips,power,riscv,sparc,x86,cpu: Get rid of ISA_HAS_DELAY_SLOT.Gabe Black
This constant is, first, a #define, and second only used in one place. In that one place, it appears that the code it guards is no longer necessary in general. It was originally written to avoid refetching a block of data that you're still in, even if you've moved slightly farther in it because you're skipping the next instruction due to an annulled branch delay slot. In reality however, in SPARC, the one ISA I'm aware of which has this sort of branching behavior, the PC state object will correctly determine that no branch is happening in these cases. Code lower down in the loop will then recompute where fetching should continue based on the next PC, automatically skipping the annulled branch slot without misinterpretting the gap as a branch. This change therefore also removes this block of code.

Exclusive caches use the tempBlock to fill for responses from a downstream cache. The reason for this is that they only pass the block to the cache above without keeping a copy. When all requests are serviced the block is immediately invalidated unless it is dirty, in which case it has to be written back to the memory below. To avoid unnecessary writebacks, this changeset forces mostly exclusive caches to issuse requests that can only fetch clean data when possible.

2017-12-23riscv,x86: Stop using the arch Nop machine instruction unnecessarily.Gabe Black
That particular ExtMachInst is a convenient placeholder, but a value of 0 in RISCV or a static uninitialized ExtMachInst (which will therefore be all zeroes) on x86 works just as well, and removes the need for an ISA specific constant. Also, the idea of a universal Nop doesn't always make sense since it could be that what, exactly, doesn't do anything depends on context which would be lost on a constant value of an ExtMachInst. For instance, the value of an ExtMachInst that makes sense might depend on what mode the CPU was in, etc. Change-Id: I1f1a43a5c607a667e11b79bcf6e059e4f7141b3f Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/6825 Reviewed-by: Gabe Black <gabeblack@google.com> Reviewed-by: Alec Roelke <ar4jc@virginia.edu> Maintainer: Gabe Black <gabeblack@google.com>
2017-12-22arch,cpu: "virtualize" the TLB interface.Gabe Black
CPUs have historically instantiated the architecture specific version of the TLBs to avoid a virtual function call, making them a little bit more dependent on what the current ISA is. Some simple performance measurement, the x86 twolf regression on the atomic CPU, shows that there isn't actually any performance benefit, and if anything the simulator goes slightly faster (although still within margin of error) when the TLB functions are virtual. This change switches everything outside of the architectures themselves to use the generic BaseTLB type, and then inside the ISA for them to cast that to their architecture specific type to call into architecture specific interfaces. The ARM TLB needed the most adjustment since it was using non-standard translation function signatures. Specifically, they all took an extra "type" parameter which defaulted to normal, and translateTiming returned a Fault. translateTiming actually doesn't need to return a Fault because everywhere that consumed it just stored it into a structure which it then deleted(?), and the fault is stored in the Translation object when the translation is done. A little more work is needed to fully obviate the arch/tlb.hh header, so the TheISA::TLB type is still visible outside of the ISAs. Specifically, the TlbEntry type is used in the generic PageTable which lives in src/mem.
