2016-06-06sim: Adding support for power modelsDavid Guillen Fandos
This patch adds some basic support for power models in gem5. The power interface is defined so it can interact with thermal models as well. It implements a simple power evaluator that can be used for simple power models that express power in the form of a math expression. These expressions can use stats within the same SimObject (or down its hierarchy) and some magic variables such as "temp" for temperature. In future patches we will extend this functionality to allow slightly more complex expressions. The model allows it to be extended to use other kinds of models.

2016-06-06pwr: Add power states to ClockedObjectDavid Guillen Fandos
Add 4 power states to the ClockedObject, provides necessary access functions to check and update the power state. Default power state is UNDEFINED, it is responsibility of the respective simulation model to provide the startup state and any other logic for state change. Add number of transition stat. Add distribution of time spent in clock gated state. Add power state residency stat. Add dump call back function to allow stats update of distribution and residency stats.

2016-06-06stats: Fixing regStats function for some SimObjectsDavid Guillen Fandos
Fixing an issue with regStats not calling the parent class method for most SimObjects in Gem5. This causes issues if one adds new stats in the base class (since they are never initialized properly!).

2016-06-06sim: Call regStats of base-class as wellStephan Diestelhorst
We want to extend the stats of objects hierarchically and thus it is necessary to register the statistics of the base-class(es), as well. For now, these are empty, but generic stats will be added there. Patch originally provided by Akash Bagdia at ARM Ltd.

According to the ARM ARM (see AArch32.TranslateAddress in the pseudocode library), the TLB should be operating in aarch64 mode if the EL0 is aarch32 and EL1 is aarch64. This is currently not the case in gem5, which breaks 64/32 interprocessing. Update the check to match the reference manual.

2016-05-31scons: Use the new test framework from sconsAndreas Sandberg
Rewrite the SCons script responsible for launching tests to use the new test framework. The biggest visible change after this changeset is that SCons no longer produces a "status" file in test build directories. Instead, it creates a status.pickle file. That file can be inspected using the new tests.py script. Another visible change is that timed out tests are now reported as failed rather than a using a separate summary message. Since the pickle file will remain in the build directory after running tests, it's now possible to convert the test results into other formats. For example: ./tests/tests.py show --format junit -o junit.xml \ `find build/ -name status.pickle` To better facilitate running outside of scons, there is now a set of targets that generate test listings that can be used by the test script. There are currently three targets, quick.list, long.list, and all.list. For example: scons build/ARM/tests/opt/all.list for F in `cat build/ARM/tests/opt/all.list`; do ./tests/tests.py run build/ARM/gem5.opt $F done Change-Id: I2c0f8ca0080d7af737362e198eda4cb3a72e6c36 Signed-off-by: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Curtis Dunham <curtis.dunham@arm.com>

2016-05-27mem, config: Selective use of snoop filterStephan Diestelhorst
Disable the default snoop filter in the SystemXBar so that the typical membus does not have a snoop filter by default. Instead, add the snoop filter only when there are caches added to the system (with the caches / l2cache options). The underlying problem is that the snoop filter grows without bounds (for now) if there are no caches to tell it that lines have been evicted. This causes slow regression runs for all the atomic regressions. This patch fixes this behaviour. --HG-- extra : source : f97c20511828209757440839ed48d741d02d428f

This breaks interprocessing since EL0 in aarch32 would report its fault status using the aarch32 registers even if EL1 is in aarch64. Fix this to report the fault using the format of the target EL.

2016-05-26mem: Fix memory leak in handling of deferred snoopsAndreas Hansson
This patch fixes a memory leak where deferred snoop packets never got deallocated. On the call to MSHR::handleSnoop these snoops were treated as if a response will be sent, as the MSHR was pendingModified. Consequently, a copy of the packet was created and added to the MSHR targets. However, an preceeding target to the same MSHR, originally from a CPU, was serviced before the snoop, and caused the block to be invalidated. This happens for ReadExReq and UpgradeReq. Note that the original snoop will receive a response, just not from the cache in question, but instead from the cache upstream that issued the ReadExReq or UpgradeReq.

2016-05-26tests: Add test infrastructure as a Python moduleAndreas Sandberg
Implement gem5's test infrastructure as a Python module and a run script that can be used without scons. The new implementation has several features that were lacking from the previous test infrastructure such as support for multiple output formats, automatic runtime tracking, and better support for being run in a cluster environment. Tests consist of one or more steps (TestUnit). Units are run in two stages, the first a run stage and then a verify stage. Units in the verify stage are automatically skipped if any unit run stage wasn't run. The library currently contains TestUnit implementations that run gem5, diff stat files, and diff output files. Existing tests are implemented by the ClassicTest class and "just work". New tests can that don't rely on the old "run gem5 once and diff output" strategy can be implemented by subclassing the Test base class or ClassicTest. Test results can be output in multiple formats. The module currently supports JUnit, text (short and verbose), and Python's pickle format. JUnit output allows CI systems to automatically get more information about test failures. The pickled output contains all state necessary to reconstruct a tests results object and is mainly intended for the build system and CI systems. Since many JUnit parsers parsers assume that test suite names look like Java package names. We currently output path-like names with slashes separating components. Test names are translated according to these rules: * '.' -> '-" * '/' -> '.' The test tool, tests.py, supports the following features: * Test listing. Example: ./tests.py list arm/quick * Running tests. Example: ./tests.py run -o output.pickle --format pickle \ ../build/ARM/gem5.opt \ quick/se/00.hello/arm/linux/simple-timing * Displaying pickled results.
