2016-09-22tests: Make remaining switcheroo tests functional onlyAndreas Sandberg
The switcheroo tests only really serve to check functional correctness. Checking for stat differences in them just increases the size of reference diffs. Signed-off-by: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com>

2016-09-16gpu-compute: Adding context serialization methods to WavefrontAlexandru Dutu
This patch adds methods to serialize the context of a particular wavefront to the simulated system memory. Context serialization is used when a wavefront is preempeted (i.e. context switch).
2016-09-16gpu-compute: Refactoring Wavefront::dynWaveIdAlexandru Dutu
2016-09-16gpu-compute: Adding vector register file debug messagesAlexandru Dutu
This patch introduces DPRINTFs for reading and writing to and from the vector register file.
2016-09-16gpu-compute: Changing reconvergenceStack typeAlexandru Dutu
std::stack has no iterators, therefore the reconvergence stack can't be iterated without poping elements off. We will be using std::list instead to be able to iterate for saving and restoring purposes.
2016-09-16gpu-compute: Adding ioctl for HW context sizeAlexandru Dutu
Adding runtime support for determining the memory required by a SIMD engine when executing a particular wavefront.
2016-09-16gpu-compute: Wavefront refactoringAlexandru Dutu
Renaming members of the Wavefront class in accordance with the style guide.
2016-09-16gpu-compute: Remove WFContextAlexandru Dutu
WFContext struct is currently unused and it has been rendered not useful in saving and restoring the context of a Wavefront. Wavefront class should be sufficient for that purpose and the runtime can figure out the memory size it will need to allocate for a Wavefront through an IOCTL.
2016-09-16tests, arm: Make switcheroo and checkpoint tests functionalAndreas Sandberg
Switcheroo and checkpoint tests should generally be considered to be successful if they run to completion. Remove all reference output files from the switcheroo and checkopint tests to make them purely functional.

2016-09-16tests: Add support for functional only testsAndreas Sandberg
Modify the ClassicTest class to only emit a stat verification test unit if there is a reference stat file. This makes it possible to design tests that don't care about stat changes. To generate purely functional tests, we need to be able to create empty test reference directories. This does not work well with many revision control systems. As a workaround, add a file named EMPTY to the list of ignored files in the test harness. This file can be used as a placeholder in otherwise empty test directories.

2016-09-15cpu: Support exit when any one Trace CPU completes replayRadhika Jagtap
This change adds a Trace CPU param to exit simulation early, i.e. when the first (any one) trace execution is complete. With this change the user gets a choice to configure exit as either when the last CPU finishes (default) or first CPU finishes replay. Configuring an early exit enables simulating and measuring stats strictly when memory-system resources are being stressed by all Trace CPUs.

2016-09-15cpu: Adjust for trace offset and fix statsRadhika Jagtap
This change subtracts the time offset present in the trace from all the event times when nodes and request are sent so that the replay starts immediately when the simulation starts. This makes the stats accurate when the time offset in traces is large, for example when traces are generated in the middle of a workload execution. It also solves the problem of unnecessary DRAM refresh events that would keep occuring during the large time offset before even a single request is replayed into the system.

2016-09-15cpu: Add frequency scaling to the Trace CPURadhika Jagtap
This change adds a simple feature to scale the frequency of the Trace CPU. The compute delays in the input traces provide timing. This change adds a freqency multiplier parameter to the Trace CPU set to 1.0 by default. The compute delay is manipulated to effectively achieve the frequency at which the nodes become ready and thus scale the frequency of the Trace CPU.

2016-09-13kvm: Support timing accesses for KVM cpuMichael LeBeane
This patch enables timing accesses for KVM cpu. A new state, RunningMMIOPending, is added to indicate that there are outstanding timing requests generated by KVM in the system. KVM's tick() is disabled and the simulation does not enter into KVM until all outstanding timing requests have completed. The main motivation for this is to allow KVM CPU to perform MMIO in Ruby, since Ruby does not support atomic accesses.
2016-09-13x86: Force strict ordering for memory mapped m5opsMichael LeBeane
Normal MMAPPED_IPR requests are allowed to execute speculatively under the assumption that they have no side effects. The special case of m5ops that are treated like MMAPPED_IPR should not be allowed to execute speculatively, since they can have side-effects. Adding the STRICT_ORDER flag to these requests blocks execution until the associated instruction hits the ROB head.
2016-09-13sim: Refactor quiesce and remove FS assertsMichael LeBeane
The quiesce family of magic ops can be simplified by the inclusion of quiesceTick() and quiesce() functions on ThreadContext. This patch also gets rid of the FS guards, since suspending a CPU is also a valid operation for SE mode.

2016-09-13dev: Add a DmaCallback class to DmaDeviceMichael LeBeane

2016-09-13gpu-compute: Fix bug with return in cfgMichael LeBeane
Connecting basic blocks would stop too early in kernels where ret was not the last instruction. This patch allows basic blocks after the ret instruction to be properly connected.
2016-09-13dev: Exit correctly in dist-gem5Michael LeBeane
The receiver thread in dist_iface is allowed to directly exit the simulation. This can cause exit to be called twice if the main thread simultaneously wants to exit the simulation. Therefore, have the receiver thread enqueue a request to exit on the primary event queue for the main simulation thread to handle.
2016-09-13misc: Remove FullSystem check for networking componentsMichael LeBeane
Ethernet devices are currently only hooked up if running in FS mode. Much of the Ethernet networking code is generic and can be used to build non-Ethernet device models. Some of these device models do not require a complex driver stack and can be built to use an EmulatedDriver in SE mode. This patch enables etherent interfaces to properly connect regardless of whether the simulation is in FS or SE mode.
2016-09-13base: Output all AddrRange parameters to config.iniMatt Poremba
Currently only 'start' and 'end' of AddrRange are printed in config.ini. This causes address ranges to be overlapping when loading a c++-only config with interleaved addresses using CxxConfigManger. This patch adds prints for the interleave and XOR bits to config.ini such that address ranges are properly setup with cxx config.
2016-09-06dev, arm: Add a customizable NoMali GPU modelAndreas Sandberg
Add a customizable NoMali GPU model and an example Mali T760 configuration. Unlike the normal NoMali model (NoMaliGpu), the NoMaliCustopmGpu model exposes all the important GPU ID registers to Python. This makes it possible to implement custom GPU configurations by without changing the underlying NoMali library.

2016-08-12mem: Use FromCache attribute in snoop filter allocationAndreas Hansson
This patch improves the snoop filter allocation decisions by not only looking at whether a port is snooping or not, but also if the packet actually came from a cache. The issue with only looking at isSnooping is that the CPU ports, for example, are snooping, but not actually caching. Previously we ended up incorrectly allocating entries in systems without caches (such as the atomic and timing quick regressions). Eventually these misguided allocations caused the snoop filter to panic due to an excessive size. On the request path we now include the fromCache check on the packet itself, and for responses we check if we actually have a snoop-filter entry.

2016-08-12mem: Update mostly exclusive policy even furtherAndreas Hansson
This patch takes yet another step in maintaining the clusivity, in that it allows a mostly-inclusive cache to hold on to blocks even when responding to a ReadExReq or UpgradeReq. Previously the cache simply invalidated these blocks, but there is no strict need to do so. The most important part of this patch is that we simply mark the block clean when satisfying the upstream request where the cache is allowed to keep the block. The only tricky part of the patch is in the memory management of deferred snoops, where we need to distinguish the cases where only the packet was copied (we expected to respond), and the cases where we created an entirely new packet and request (we kept it only to replay later). The code in satisfyRequest is definitely ready for some refactoring after this.

2016-08-12mem: Update mostly exclusive cache policy to cover more casesAndreas Hansson
This patch changes how the mostly exclusive policy is enforced to ensure that we drop blocks when we should. As part of this change, the actual invalidation due to the clusivity enforcement is moved outside the hit handling, to a separate method maintainClusivity. For the timing mode that means we can deal with all MSHR targets before taking any action and possibly dropping the block. The method satisfyCpuSideRequest is also renamed satisfyRequest as part of this change (since we only ever see requests from the cpu-side port).
