2017-05-15cpu: fix problem with forwarding and locked loadAlec Roelke
If a (regular) store is followed closely enough by a locked load that overlaps, the LSQ will forward the store's data to the locked load and never tell the cache about the locked load. As a result, the cache will not lock the address and all future store-conditional requests on that address will fail. This patch fixes that by preventing forwarding if the memory request is a locked load and adding another case to the LSQ forwarding logic that delays the locked load request if a store in the LSQ contains all or part of the data that is requested. [Merge second and last if blocks because their bodies are the same.] Change-Id: I895cc2b9570035267bdf6ae3fdc8a09049969841 Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/2400 Reviewed-by: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com> Reviewed-by: Nikos Nikoleris <nikos.nikoleris@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Tony Gutierrez <anthony.gutierrez@amd.com> Maintainer: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com>

2017-05-12misc: Make the remote GDB stub more resilient to bad connections.Gabe Black
Currently, if the remote gdb stub fails to read a byte from an incoming packet because the connection has been dropped, the read call will return anyway and the calling code will have no way to know something bad happened. It might reattempt the read over and over again waiting for some particular byte, doomed to never make forward progress. This change modifies the remote GDB code so that if a read or write call fails, it will instead detach from the debugger and continue. Before this change, When simulating a port scan, ie connecting to the debugger port and then immediately dropping the connection using this command: nc -v -n -z -w 1 127.0.0.1 7000 gem5 would enter the previously described death spiral. After it, gem5 detaches from the bad connection and resumes execution. Subsequently attaching with gdb was successful. This code is written in a C centric style, and would benefit from some refactoring.

2017-05-02python: Use PyBind11 instead of SWIG for Python wrappersAndreas Sandberg
Use the PyBind11 wrapping infrastructure instead of SWIG to generate wrappers for functionality that needs to be exported to Python. This has several benefits: * PyBind11 can be redistributed with gem5, which means that we have full control of the version used. This avoid a large number of hard-to-debug SWIG issues we have seen in the past. * PyBind11 doesn't rely on a custom C++ parser, instead it relies on wrappers being explicitly declared in C++. The leads to slightly more boiler-plate code in manually created wrappers, but doesn't doesn't increase the overall code size. A big benefit is that this avoids strange compilation errors when SWIG doesn't understand modern language features. * Unlike SWIG, there is no risk that the wrapper code incorporates incorrect type casts (this has happened on numerous occasions in the past) since these will result in compile-time errors. As a part of this change, the mechanism to define exported methods has been redesigned slightly. New methods can be exported either by declaring them in the SimObject declaration and decorating them with the cxxMethod decorator or by adding an instance of PyBindMethod/PyBindProperty to the cxx_exports class variable. The decorator has the added benefit of making it possible to add a docstring and naming the method's parameters. The new wrappers have the following known issues: * Global events can't be memory managed correctly. This was the case in SWIG as well.

2017-04-25misc: Add MAINTAINERS fileJason Lowe-Power
This file defines all of the commit keywords used for gem5 commits and the maintainter(s) for each of these keywords. This patch introduces a number of new keywords, and changes to previous keywords. The new keywords better follow gem5's directory structure and are more extensible. Currently, most keywords do not have a maintainer. More maintainers will be added as more people volunteer to be maintainers. This patch also updates the CONTRIBUTING.md file to point to this file instead of listing the keywords separately. When this file is committed the wiki will also be updated accordingly.

2017-04-18x86: fixed branching() computation for branch uopsSanti Galan
When a branch micro-op belongs to a flow and the micro-op does not change the nPC and just updates the nuPC (like a 'rep movs' flow), branching() function always returns not-taken no matter actual micro-branch outcome. Provided fix adds to the equation nuPC attribute checking since these kind of branch micro-op only updates that pointer. This issue has been found while debugging the performance of a copy-loop implemented with memcopy function. Without the fix, 'rep movss' internal micro-branch was always predicted as not-taken causing an squash event after every branch micro-branch execution. Using the provided test, branch mispredition went from 1922 without the fix to 7. Change-Id: I1bcbefae26aef47e3135817ef99b53d0ea0a98fa

The command line can be too long, causing bash to choke. This means we can't use any shell syntax like shell variables or redirection when linking, but that should be easy to avoid.
