This patch removes the default port and instead relies on the peer
being set to NULL initially. The binding check (i.e. is a port
connected or not) will eventually be moved to the init function of the
modules.

This patch removes the inheritance of EventManager from the ports and
moves all responsibility for event queues to the owner. Eventually the
event manager should be the interface block, which could either be the
structural owner or a subblock like a LSQ in the O3 CPU for example.
|
|
This patch performs minimal changes to move the instruction and data
ports from specialised subclasses to the base CPU (to the largest
degree possible). Ultimately it servers to make the CPU(s) have a
well-defined interface to the memory sub-system.

Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable
all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has
the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem
and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address
maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is
used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong
to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data
port in a port proxy.
The following replacements are made:
FunctionalPort > PortProxy
TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy
VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy

Regression statistics update.

This patch changes the access permission for the WB_E_W state from
Busy to Read_Write to avoid having issues in follow-on patches with
functional accesses going through Ruby. This change was made after
consultation with all involved parties and is more of a work-around
than a fix.

The system port is used as a globally reachable access point to the
memory subsystem. The benefit of using an actual port is that the
usual infrastructure is used to resolve any access and thus makes the
overall system able to handle distributed memories in any
configuration, and also makes the accesses agnostic to the address
map. This patch only introduces the port and does not actually use it
for anything.

This patch changes the functionalAccess member function in the cache
model such that it is aware of what port the access came from, i.e. if
it came from the CPU side or from the memory side. By adding this
information, it is possible to respect the 'forwardSnoops' flag for
snooping requests coming from the memory side and not forward
them. This fixes an outstanding issue with the IO bus getting accesses
that have no valid destination port and also cleans up future changes
to the bus model.

A recent changeset (aae12ce9f34c) removed support for
PAL-mode breakpoints in Alpha, since it was awkward
and likely unused. This patch lets a user know if they
potentially run into this limitation.

Looks like copy-and-paste bug, apparently I'm the first
person to ever use this since it's plainly broken.

The definition for the class CacheMsg was removed long back. Some declaration
had still survived, which was recently removed. Since the PerfectCacheMemory
class relied on this particular declaration, its absence let to compilation
breaking down. Hence this patch.

Currently there is an assumption that restoration from a checkpoint will
happen by first restoring to an atomic CPU and then switching to a timing
CPU. This patch adds support for directly restoring to a timing CPU. It
adds a new option '--restore-with-cpu' which is used to specify the type
of CPU to which the checkpoint should be restored to. It defaults to
'atomic' which was the case before.

This patch resurrects ruby's cache warmup capability. It essentially
makes use of all the infrastructure that was added to the controllers,
memories and the cache recorder.
|
|
The flag RubyStoreBuffer is being removed, instead RubySystem is being added

This patch adds function to the Sparse Memory so that the blocks can be
recorded in a cache trace. The blocks are added to the cache recorder
which can later write them into a file.
|
|
This patch changes CacheRecorder, CacheMemory, CacheControllers
so that the contents of a cache can be recorded for checkpointing
purposes.
|
|
This patch adds functions to the memory vector class that can be used for
collating memory pages to raw trace and for populating pages from a raw
trace.
|
|
The Ruby Tracer is out of date with the changes that are being carried
out to support checkpointing. Hence, it needs to be removed.

A couple of bugs were observed while building checkpointing support in Ruby.
This patch changes transitions to remove those errors.

The SparseMemEntry structure includes just one void* pointer. It seems
unnecessary that we have a structure for this. The patch removes the
structure and makes use of a typedef on void* instead.

This adds the derived class FunctionalPacket to fix a long standing
deficiency in the Packet class where it was unable to handle finding data to
partially satisfy a functional access. Made this a derived class as
functional accesses are used only in certain contexts and to not add any
additional overhead to the existing Packet class.

Vector2d stats with no y_subname were not displayed as the VectorPrint subname was not initialized correctly to reflect the empty field.

This patch adds a mechanism to collect run time samples for specific portions
of a benchmark, using work_begin and work_end pseudo instructions.It also enhances
the histogram stat to report geometric mean.

Old code prints 0 for destination since pkt->getDest() returns 0 for
pkt->getDest() == Packet::Broadcast, which is always true.
