This changeset adds a SWIG interface for the Serializable class, which
fixes a warning when compiling the SWIG interface for the event
queue. Currently, the only method exported is the name() method.
|
|
There is no point in exporting the old drain() method in
Simulate.py. It should only be used internally by doDrain(). This
patch moves the old drain() method into doDrain() and renames
doDrain() to drain().
|
|
changeToAtomic and changeToTiming both do essentially the same thing,
they check the type of their input argument, drain the system, and
switch to the desired memory mode. This patch moves all of that code
to a separate method (changeMemoryMode) and calls that from both
changeToAtomic and changeToTiming.
|
|
This patch moves the draining interface from SimObject to a separate
class that can be used by any object needing draining. However,
objects not visible to the Python code (i.e., objects not deriving
from SimObject) still depend on their parents informing them when to
drain. This patch also gets rid of the CountedDrainEvent (which isn't
really an event) and replaces it with a DrainManager.

SWIG needs a complete declaration of all wrapped objects. This patch
adds a header file with the DerivO3CPU class and includes it in the
SWIG interface.

rename : src/cpu/o3/cpu_builder.cc => src/cpu/o3/deriv.cc

In order to create reliable SWIG wrappers, we need to include the
declaration of the wrapped class in the SWIG file. Previously, we
didn't expose the declaration of checker CPUs. This patch adds header
files for such CPUs and include them in the SWIG wrapper.

rename : src/cpu/dummy_checker_builder.cc => src/cpu/dummy_checker.cc
rename : src/cpu/o3/checker_builder.cc => src/cpu/o3/checker.cc

The Python wrappers and the C++ should have the same object
structure. If this is not the case, bad things will happen when the
SWIG wrappers cast between an object and any of its base classes. This
was not the case for NSGigE and Sinic devices. This patch makes NSGigE
and Sinic inherit from the new EtherDevBase class, which in turn
inherits from EtherDevice. As a bonus, this removes some duplicated
statistics from the Sinic device.

When casting objects in the generated SWIG interfaces, SWIG uses
classical C-style casts ( (Foo *)bar; ). In some cases, this can
degenerate into the equivalent of a reinterpret_cast (mainly if only a
forward declaration of the type is available). This usually works for
most compilers, but it is known to break if multiple inheritance is
used anywhere in the object hierarchy.
This patch introduces the cxx_header attribute to Python SimObject
definitions, which should be used to specify a header to include in
the SWIG interface. The header should include the declaration of the
wrapped object. We currently don't enforce header the use of the
header attribute, but a warning will be generated for objects that do
not use it.

The PCI base class is PciDev and not PciDevice, which is used by the
Python world. Make sure this is reflected in the wrapper code.

Updated the util/m5/Makefile.arm so that m5op_arm.S is used to create
a static library - libm5.a. Allowing users to insert m5
psuedo-instructions into their applications for fine-grained
checkpointing, switching cpus or dumping statistics. e.g.
#include <m5op.h>
void foo(){
...
m5_reset_stats(<delay>,<period>)
m5_work_begin(<workid>,<threadid>);
...
m5_work_end(<workid>,<threadid>);
m5_dump_stats(<delay>,<period>);
}

This patch enables dumping statistics and Linux process information on
context switch boundaries (__switch_to() calls) that are used for
Streamline integration (a graphical statistics viewer from ARM).
|
|
This patch ensures cases like %0.6u, %06f, and %.6u are processed correctly.
The case like %06f is ambiguous and was made to match printf. Also, this patch
removes the goto statement in cprintf.cc in favor of a function call.

This patch adds a VncInput base class which VncServer inherits from.
Another class can implement the same interface and be used instead
of the VncServer, for example a class that replays Vnc traffic.
--HG--
rename : src/base/vnc/VncServer.py => src/base/vnc/Vnc.py
rename : src/base/vnc/vncserver.cc => src/base/vnc/vncinput.cc
rename : src/base/vnc/vncserver.hh => src/base/vnc/vncinput.hh

This patch takes the Linux thread info support scattered across
different ISA implementations (currently in ARM, ALPHA, and MIPS), and
unifies them into a single file.
Adds a few more helper functions to read out TGID, mm, etc.
ISA-specific information (e.g., ALPHA PCBB register) is now moved to
the corresponding isa_traits.hh files.

Fix some issues with the local predictor and the way it's indexed.

Changeset 4f54b0f229b5 removed the call to doDrain in changeToTiming
based on the assumption that the system does not need draining when
running in atomic mode. This is a false assumption since at least the
System class requires the system to be drained before it allows
switching of memory modes. This patch reverts that part of the
changeset.

This patch merely fixes a few typos in the port comments.
|
|
This patch updates the stats for the regressions that were affected by
the typo in the simple-atomic-mp configuration.
|
|
This patch fixes a minor typo that managed to sneak into the
simple-atomic-mp regression configuration.
|
|
This patch updates the stats to reflect the changes in the L2 MSHRs,
as the latter are now uniform across the regressions.
|
|
This patch unified the L1 and L2 caches used throughout the
regressions instead of declaring different, but very similar,
configurations in the different scripts.
The patch also changes the default L2 configuration to match what it
used to be for the fs and se scripts (until the last patch that
updated the regressions to also make use of the cache config). The
MSHRs and targets per MSHR are now set to a more realistic default of
20 and 12, respectively.
As a result of both the aforementioned changes, many of the regression
stats are changed. A follow-on patch will bump the stats.

This patch sets the is_icache param for the L1 caches used in
the MESI and the MOESI CMP directory protocols.
|
|
This patch replaces hard coded values used in Ruby's configuration files
for setting directory bits with values based on the block size in use.
|
|
This patch adds an additional check to ensure that the fastmem option
is only used if the system is using the Atomic CPU.
|
|
This patch removes a segment of dead code that is never used.
|
|
This patch unifies the naming of the default L1 and L2 caches in the
regression configs to be in line with what is used in the se and fs
scripts.
|
|
This patch updates the stats to reflect the change in the default
system clock from 1 THz to 1GHz. The changes are due to the DMA
devices now injecting requests at a lower pace.
|
|
This patch changes the default system clock from 1THz to 1GHz. This
clock is used by all modules that do not override the default (parent
clock), and primarily affects the IO subsystem. Every DMA device uses
its clock to schedule the next transfer, and the change will thus
cause this inter-transfer delay to be longer.
The default clock of the bus is removed, as the clock inherited from
the system provides exactly the same value.
A follow-on patch will bump the stats.

This patch bumps the stats to match the use of SimpleDRAM instead of
SimpleMemory in all inorder and O3 regressions, and also all
full-system regressions. A number of performance-related stats change,
and a whole bunch of stats are added for the memory controller.
|
|
This patch favours using SimpleDRAM with the default timing instead of
SimpleMemory for all regressions that involve the o3 or inorder CPU,
or are full system (in other words, where the actual performance of
the memory is important for the overall performance).
Moving forward, the solution for FSConfig and the users of fs.py and
se.py is probably something similar to what we use to choose the CPU
type. I envision a few pre-set configurations SimpleLPDDR2,
SimpleDDR3, etc that can be choosen by a dram_type option. Feedback on
this part is welcome.
This patch changes plenty stats and adds all the DRAM controller
related stats. A follow-on patch updates the relevant statistics. The
total run-time for the entire regression goes up with ~5% with this
patch due to the added complexity of the SimpleDRAM model. This is a
concious trade-off to ensure that the model is properly tested.
|
|
This patch uses the common L1, L2 and IOCache configuration for the
regressions that all share the same cache parameters. There are a few
regressions that use a slightly different configuration (memtest,
o3-timing=mp, simple-atomic-mp and simple-timing-mp), and the latter
are not changed in this patch. They will be updated in a future patch.
The common cache configurations are changed to match the ones used in
the regressions, and are slightly changed with respect to what they
were. Hopefully this means we can converge on a common base
configuration, used both in the normal user configurations and
regressions.
As only regressions that shared the same cache configuration are
updated, no regressions are affected.

This patch simplifies the scheduling of the next walk for the ARM
table walker. Previously it used the CPU clock, but as the table
walker inherits the clock from the CPU, it is cleaner to simply use
its own clock (which is the same).
|
|
This patch updates the stats after removing the zero-time send used in
the DMA port.
|
|
This patch removes the zero-time loop used to send items from the DMA
port transmit list. Instead of having a loop, the DMA port now uses an
event to schedule sending of a single packet.
Ultimately this patch serves to ease the transition to a blocking
4-phase handshake.
A follow-on patch will update the regression statistics.
|
|
This patch brings the t1000 stats up to date.

I had forgotten to change the network test protocol while making changes to
ruby for supporting functional accesses. This patch updates the protocol so
that it can compile correctly.
|
|
|
|
|

This patch adds support to different entities in the ruby memory system
for more reliable functional read/write accesses. Only the simple network
has been augmented as of now. Later on Garnet will also support functional
accesses.
The patch adds functional access code to all the different types of messages
that protocols can send around. These messages are functionally accessed
by going through the buffers maintained by the network entities.
The patch also rectifies some of the bugs found in coherence protocols while
testing the patch.
With this patch applied, functional writes always succeed. But functional
reads can still fail.
|
|
The Memtest tester allows for only one request to be outstanding for a
particular physical address. The check has been written separately for
reads and writes. This patch moves the check earlier than its current
position so that it need not be written separately for reads and writes.
|
|
Currently the Ruby System maintains pointer to only one of the memory
controllers. But there can be multiple controllers in the system. This
patch adds a vector of memory controllers.
|
|
The only place where this abstract class is in use is the memory controller,
which it self is an abstract class. Does not seem useful at all.
|
|
This patch adds support for function definitions to appear in slicc structs.
This is required for supporting functional accesses for different types of
messages. Subsequent patches will use this to development.
|
|
It seems unecessary that the BankedArray class needs to schedule an event
to figure out when the access ends. Instead only the time for the end of access
needs to be tracked.
|

Ruby system was recently converted to a clocked object. Such objects maintain
state related to the time that has passed so far. During the cache warmup, Ruby
system changes its own time and the global time. Later on, the global time is
restored. So Ruby system also needs to reset its own time.
