2018-11-07arch-arm: Refactor ISA::clear by adding a ISA::clear32 methodGiacomo Travaglini
The patch is also moving some initialization code to be used by AArch64 as well since the registers are mapped to AArch64 ones.

2018-11-07arch-arm: Remove MISCREG commented numbersGiacomo Travaglini
Having an enum number might be useful in case we wanted to know how many miscregs we have, but on the other hand it makes it tedious to update the register list, since every commented number must be bumped.

2018-11-06mips: Clean up type overrides for operands.Gabe Black
For operands which default to uw (uint32_t), there's no reason to explicitly specify that all over the place. Also, when assigning to a 32 bit value which is supposed to be the full width of the resulting register, there's no reason to override the value to be signed. If the value is expanded into a larger value, then extra bits may get set unintentionally through sign extension. Even if an instruction produces a value which should be interpreted as signed, it will still only produce a value of a certain predefined width, even if that answer ends up stored in a larger variable.

2018-11-05systemc: Explicitly keep the sc_port bind alongside sc_in's version.Gabe Black
The sc_in bind function was hiding the one from sc_port by changing the const-ness of its parameter. This change explicitly exposes the underlying sc_port version, and keeps it alongside the new sc_in version. This seems mildly dangerous and undesirable because now there are two very similar functions which would both need to be overridden in order to get new behavior, but I don't think it's any more dangerous and undesirable than as (perhaps unintentionally) specified in the standard.

2018-11-05systemc: Change how SC_BIND_PROXY_NIL is initialized.Gabe Black
The previous implementation dereferenced a null pointer to create a reference which would then have its address taken in the sc_bind_proxy constructor. clang says that that uses undefined behavior, so this change adds a default constructor which initializes the two contained pointers to null explicitly. We have to hope systemc code doesn't play around with sc_bind_proxy too much and doesn't accidentally use this constructor unintentionally, but it seems like the least bad possible solution which makes clang happy.

These two names clashed, and clang complained that the tag local name was hiding the SimObject name (which it was).

2018-11-05arch, arm: Return s1Req upon fault in s2LookupAnouk Van Laer

When a fault occurs during the second stage of translation, this new request is returned. This can lead to issues with the O3 CPU. The O3 fetch stage will not acknowledge the fault as it is a different request than the one it sent out and does not contain a contextID. This commit rectifies this.

The common denominator or those instruction is the chance that the system register access is trapped to an upper Exception level. MiscRegOp64 is providing that feature. What do we gain?

2018-10-19python: Add utility function to override config parametersCiro Santilli
Add a utility method, SimObject.apply_config that can be used to implement SimObject param overrides from the command line. This function provides safe and convenient semantics for CLI assignment: * The override expression is evaluated in a restricted environment. The only global variables are the child objects and params from the root object. * Only params can be overridden. For example, calling methods or setting attributes on SimObjects isn't possible. * Vectors use non-standard list semantics which enable something similar to glob expansion on the shell. For example, setting: root.system.cpu[0:2].numThreads = 2 will override numThreads for cpu 0 and 1 and: root.system.cpus[0,2].numThreads = 2 sets it for cpus 0 and 2. The intention is that the helper method is called to override default values before calling m5.instantiate.

Enable the cache to detect contiguous writes and hold on to the MSHR long enough to allow the entire line to be written. If the whole line is written, the MSHR will be sent out as an invalidation requests, as it is part of a whole-line write, i.e. no-fetch-on-write. The cache is also able to switch to a write-no-allocate policy on the actual completion of the writes, and instead use the tempBlock and turn the write operation into a writeback. These policies are all well-known, and described in works such as Jouppi, Cache Write Policies and Performance, vol 21, no 2, ACM, 1993.

2018-10-18mem: Delay servicing an MSHR after its allocationNikos Nikoleris
An MSHR is allocated and the computed latency determines when the MSHR will be ready and can be serviced by the cache. This patch adds a function that allows changing the time that an MSHR is ready and adjusts the queue such that other MSHRs can be serviced first if they are ready.

2018-10-18mem: Restructure whole-line writes to simplify write mergingNikos Nikoleris
This patch changes how we deal with whole-line writes their responses. With these changes, we use the MSHR tracking to determine if a whole-line is written, and on a fill we simply handle the invalidation response, with the actual writes taking place as part of satisfying the CPU-side hit.

2018-10-18mem: Determine if an MSHR does a whole-line writeNikos Nikoleris
This patch adds support for determining whether the targets in an MSHR are 1) only writes and 2) whether these writes are effectively a whole-line write. This patch adds the necessary functions in the MSHR to allow for write coalescing in the cache.

2018-10-18null: Stop specifying an endianness in isa_traits.hh.Gabe Black
The NULL ISA doesn't really have an endianness. Now that the packet accessors which consumed that endianness are gone, we can get rid of that setting as well.

2018-10-18mem: Explicitly specify the endianness in the abstract memory.Gabe Black
The accessors are used for debugging output. If we're using an ISA where there's an endianness, we use that explicitly, falling back to a binary dump if the size isn't supported. If not, then we just dump the data without interpretation regardless of size.

The gpu ISA doesn't have a well defined endianness, but it really should. It seems that the GPU is only used with x86, and in that context it would be little endian.
