2016-05-06gpu-compute: fix uninitialized member bug in GPUDynInstTony Gutierrez
the n_reg field in the GPUDynInst is not currently set in the constructor. if it is not set externally, there are assertion failures that may occur if the random value it gets is just right. here we set it to 0 by default.
2016-05-06dev, arm: Update GIC to use GICv2 register namingAndreas Sandberg
The GICv2 has a new and slightly more consistent register naming. Update gem5's GIC register names to match the new documentation. Change-Id: I8ef114eee8a95bf0b88b37c18a18e137be78675a Signed-off-by: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Curtis Dunham <curtis.dunham@arm.com>
2016-05-06arm: Update dts to work with the new HDLCD driverAndreas Sandberg
The dts files in system/arm/dt currently assume that an (unreleased) gem5-specific virtual encoder is used as a remote endpoint for the HDLCD. This driver won't be released as a more general virtual encoder is about to be posted on the Linux DRI devel list and this encoder has now been merged with gem5's kernel tree. This changeset updates gem5's dts files to use that encoder.

2016-04-28style: Don't include diff context in git style hookAndreas Sandberg
The git style hook currently includes a few lines of diff context when determining changed regions. This is undesirable as this triggers false positives when modifying existing files with a lot of style violations. This change sets the amount of context to 0, which is the default value when requesting staged regions from the git helper.

2016-04-27arm: Remove BreakPCEvent on guest kernel panicAndreas Sandberg
The LinuxArmSystem class normally provides support for panicing gem5 if the simulated kernel panics. When this is turned off (default), gem5 uses a BreakPCEvent to provide a debugger hook into the simulator when the kernel crashes. This hook unconditionally kills gem5 with a SIGTRAP unless gem5 is compiled in fast mode. This is undesirable since the panic_on_panic param already provides similar functionality.

2016-04-27dev: Fix incorrect terminal backlog handlingAndreas Sandberg
The Terminal device currently uses the peek functionality in gem5's circular buffer implementation to send existing buffered content on the terminal when a new client attaches. This functionallity is however not implemented correctly and re-sends the same block multiple time. Add the required functionality to peek with an offset into the circular buffer and change the Terminal::accept() implementation to send the buffered contents.

2016-04-21mem: Remove unused cache statsAndreas Hansson

2016-04-21mem: Deallocate all write-queue entries when sentAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the write-queue entry tracking previously used for uncacheable writes. The write-queue entry is now deallocated as soon as the packet is sent. As a result we also forego the stats for uncacheable writes. Additionally, there is no longer a need to attach the write-queue entry to the packet.

2016-04-15ruby: Fix block_on behaviorJoel Hestness
Ruby's controller block_on behavior aimed to block MessageBuffer requests into SLICC controllers when a Locked_RMW was in flight. Unfortunately, this functionality only partially works: When non-Locked_RMW memory accesses are issued to the sequencer to an address with an in-flight Locked_RMW, the sequencer may pass those accesses through to the controller. At the controller, a number of incorrect activities can occur depending on the protocol. In MOESI_hammer, for example, an intermediate IFETCH will cause an L1D to L2 transfer, which cannot be serviced, because the block_on functionality blocks the trigger queue, resulting in a deadlock. Further, if an intermediate store arrives (e.g. from a separate SMT thread), the sequencer allows the request through to the controller, and the atomicity of the Locked_RMW may be broken. To avoid these problems, disallow the Sequencer from passing any memory accesses to the controller besides Locked_RMW_Write when a Locked_RMW is in- flight.

2016-04-13misc: Fix issues flagged by gcc 6Andreas Hansson
A few warnings (and thus errors) pop up after being added to -Wall: 1. -Wmisleading-indentation In the auto-generated code there were instances of if/else blocks that were not indented to gcc's liking. This is addressed by adding braces. 2. -Wshift-negative-value gcc is clever enougn to consider ~0 a negative constant, and rightfully complains. This is addressed by using mask() which explicitly casts to unsigned before shifting. That is all. Porting done.

2016-04-07mem: Add priority to QueuedPrefetcherRekai Gonzalez Alberquilla
Queued prefetcher entries now count with a priority field. The idea is to add packets ordered by priority and then by age. For the existing algorithms in which priority doesn't make sense, it is set to 0 for all deferred packets in the queue.
2016-04-07mem: Handful extra features for BasePrefetcherRekai Gonzalez Alberquilla
Some common functionality added to the base prefetcher, mainly dealing with extracting the block address, page address, block index inside the page and some other information that can be inferred from the block address. This is used for some prefetching algorithms, and having the methods in the base, as well as the block size and other information is the sensible way.

2016-04-07mem: Remove threadId from memory request classMitch Hayenga
In general, the ThreadID parameter is unnecessary in the memory system as the ContextID is what is used for the purposes of locks/wakeups. Since we allocate sequential ContextIDs for each thread on MT-enabled CPUs, ThreadID is unnecessary as the CPUs can identify the requesting thread through sideband info (SenderState / LSQ entries) or ContextID offset from the base ContextID for a cpu. This is a re-spin of 20264eb after the revert (bd1c6789) and includes some fixes of that commit.
2016-04-05cpu: Implement per-thread GHRsMitch Hayenga

2016-04-05power: Add 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. Finally, the thermal model is updated to use the power usage as input.
