2018-04-06arch-arm: Add support for Tarmac trace generationGiacomo Travaglini
This patch introduces the TarmacTracer: an instruction tracer which allows to dump a gem5 execution trace in Tarmac format [1]. The new tracer is supporting either Tarmac and TarmacV8 format specifications. Not every traceable information has been implemented: Implemented Trace Type: Instruction Trace Register Trace Processor Memory Access Trace Unimplemented Trace Type: Program Flow Trace Event Trace Memory Bus Trace [1]: https://developer.arm.com/docs/dui0845/f/tarmac-trace-file-format Change-Id: I8799d8e5852e868673f728971db3fe8c63961f5e Signed-off-by: Giacomo Travaglini <giacomo.travaglini@arm.com> Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/9382 Reviewed-by: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com> Maintainer: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com>
2018-04-06arch-arm: Add support for Tarmac trace-based simulationGiacomo Travaglini
A new InstTracer (TarmacParser) has been implemented. This tracer is parsing a pre-existing Tarmac trace file [1] while gem5 is running; it is comparing execution data together with trace data and it is dumping differences. This allows to use Tarmac format as a glue between heterogeneous simuators speaking the same Tarmac language. Kudos to Giacomo Gabrielli for writing the original tracer.

2018-04-06arch-arm: Fix secure write of SCTLR when EL3 is AArch64Giacomo Travaglini
MiscRegisters are not banked between secure and non-secure mode if EL3 is not implemented or if EL3 is using AArch64 (highestELIs64). In this scenario a unique register is used and it is mapped to the NS version (see snsBankedIndex implementation), so that a secure world read/write should access the non secure storage.

2018-03-27cpu: Stop extracting inst_flags from the machInst.Gabe Black
The instruction representation is already encoded in the trace protobuf, so there's no reason to encode a part of it again. This is especially true since this supposedly generic code is extracting the first 8 bits of the machInst, a totally arbitrary set of bits for most ISAs. If certain bits within a machine instruction are actually relevant, the consumer of the trace should be able to interpret the instruction bytes which are already there and extract the same bits within the context of whatever ISA they're appropriate for.

2018-03-26arch: Add a virtual asBytes function to the StaticInst class.Gabe Black
This function takes a pointer to a buffer and the current size of the buffer as a pass by reference argument. If the size of the buffer is sufficient, the function stores a binary representation of itself (generally the ISA defined instruction encoding) in the buffer, and sets the size argument to how much space it used. This could be used by ISAs which have two instruction sizes (ARM and thumb, for example). If the buffer size isn't sufficient, then the size parameter should be set to what size is required, and then the function should return without modifying the buffer. The buffer itself should be aligned to the same standard as memory returned by new, specifically "The pointer returned shall be suitably aligned so that it can be converted to a pointer of any complete object type and then used to access the object or array in the storage allocated...". This will avoid having to memcpy buffers to avoid unaligned accesses. To standardize the representation of the data, it should be stored in the buffer as little endian. Since most hosts (including ARM and x86 hosts) will be little endian, this will almost always be a no-op.

2018-03-22cpu: Make the protobuf inst tracer accept variable sized instructions.Gabe Black
This change adds an inst_bytes field which is of type bytes, and puts it in a oneof with the previously required inst field. If an instruction's encoding happens to be 4 bytes long, the original inst field will be used. Otherwise, the new variably sized inst_bytes field will be used. Because this tracer doesn't have visibility into how the data in inst_bytes is structured, it can't do any endian conversion itself. To maintain compatibility between producers and consumers who may have different endiannesses, all data should be manually converted to little endian before being stored in this field. inst will be converted into little endian by protobuf, and so compatibility doesn't have to be handled manually.

2018-03-22mem-cache: Split array indexing and replacement policies.Daniel R. Carvalho
Replacement policies (LRU, Random) are currently considered as array indexing methods, but have completely different functionalities: - Array indexers determine the possible locations for block allocation. This information is used to generate replacement candidates when conflicts happen. - Replacement policies determine which of the replacement candidates should be evicted to make room for new allocations. For this reason, they were split into different classes. Advantages: - Easier and more straightforward to implement other replacement policies (RRIP, LFU, ARC, ...) - Allow easier future implementation of cache organization schemes As now we can't assure the use of sets, the previous way to create a true LRU is not viable. Now a timestamp_bits parameter controls how many bits are dedicated for the timestamp, and a true LRU can be achieved through an infinite number of bits (although a few bits suffice in practice).

2018-03-21mem-cache: Allow clean operations when block allocation failsNikos Nikoleris
Block allocation can fail when there is an in-service MSHR that operates on the victim block. This can happed due to: * an upgrade operation: a request that needs a writable copy of the block finds a shared (non-writable) copy of the block in the cache and has allocates an MSHR for the pending upgrade operation, or * a clean operation: a clean request finds a dirty copy of the block and allocates an MSHR for the pending clean operation. This changes relaxes an assertion to allow for the 2nd case (cache clean operations).

2018-03-20arch-arm, configs: Treat the bootloader rom as cacheable memoryNikos Nikoleris
Prior to this changeset the bootloader rom (instantiated as a SimpleMemory) in ruby Arm systems was treated as an IO device and it was fronted by a DMA controller. This changeset moves the bootloader rom and adds it to the system as another memory with a dedicated directory controller.

2018-03-20arch, arm: Fix implicit-fallthrough GCC warningsChun-Chen Hsu
GCC 7 generates spurious fallthrough warnings in nested switch blocks where the inner switch block return. There is already a GCC fix [1] submitted for review but, until it is merged into GCC trunk, GEM5 will not build with GCC 7 due to these fallthrough warnings. This patch silences the spurious fallthrough warnings by appending a M5_UNREACHABLE statement in the outer switch cases. Note there is another GEM5 patch [2] to fix other fallthrough warnings.

2018-03-20riscv: throw IllegalInstFault when decoding invalid instructionsTuan Ta
If an instruction is invalid, some assertions may in the decoder may fail the entire simulation. Instead, we want to raise an IllegalInstFault instead of failing immediately in the decoder if the invalid instruction is being speculatively executed.

2018-03-15arm: Fix implicit-fallthrough warnings when building with gcc-7+Siddhesh Poyarekar
gcc 7 onwards have additional heuristics to detect implicit fallthroughs and it fails the build with warnings for ARM as a result. There was one gcc bug[1] that I fixed but the rest are cases that gcc cannot detect due to the point at which it does the fallthrough check. Most of this patch adds __builtin_unreachable() hints in places that throw this warning to indicate to gcc that the fallthrough will never happen. The remaining cases are actually possible fallthroughs due to incorrect code running on the simulator; in which case an Unknown instruction is returned.
