2014-09-03mem: Add utility script to plot DRAM efficiency sweepAndreas Hansson
This patch adds basic functionality to quickly visualise the output from the DRAM efficiency script. There are some unfortunate hacks needed to communicate the needed information from one script to the other, and we fall back on (ab)using the simout to do this. As part of this patch we also trim the efficiency sweep to stop at 512 bytes as this should be sufficient for all forseeable DRAMs.
2014-09-03mem: Packet queue clean upAndreas Hansson
No change in functionality, just a bit of tidying up.
2014-09-03dev: Avoid invalid sized reads in PL390 with DPRINTF enabledMitch Hayenga
The first DPRINTF() in PL390::writeDistributor always read a uint32_t, though a packet may have only been 1 or 2 bytes. This caused an assertion in packet->get().
2014-09-03sim: Fix checkpoint restore for TickedAndrew Bardsley
This patch makes restoring the 'lastStopped' value for Ticked-containing objects (including MinorCPU) optional so that Ticked-containing objects can be restored from non-Ticked-containing objects (such as AtomicSimpleCPU).
2014-09-03arch, cpu: Factor out the ExecContext into a proper base classAndreas Sandberg
We currently generate and compile one version of the ISA code per CPU model. This is obviously wasting a lot of resources at compile time. This changeset factors out the interface into a separate ExecContext class, which also serves as documentation for the interface between CPUs and the ISA code. While doing so, this changeset also fixes up interface inconsistencies between the different CPU models. The main argument for using one set of ISA code per CPU model has always been performance as this avoid indirect branches in the generated code. However, this argument does not hold water. Booting Linux on a simulated ARM system running in atomic mode (opt/10.linux-boot/realview-simple-atomic) is actually 2% faster (compiled using clang 3.4) after applying this patch. Additionally, compilation time is decreased by 35%.
2014-09-03arch: Cleanup unused ISA traits constantsAndreas Hansson
This patch prunes unused values, and also unifies how the values are defined (not using an enum for ALPHA), aligning the use of int vs Addr etc. The patch also removes the duplication of PageBytes/PageShift and VMPageSize/LogVMPageSize. For all ISAs the two pairs had identical values and the latter has been removed.
2014-09-03config: Change parsing of Addr so hex values work from scriptsMitch Hayenga
When passed from a configuration script with a hexadecimal value (like "0x80000000"), gem5 would error out. This is because it would call "toMemorySize" which requires the argument to end with a size specifier (like 1MB, etc). This modification makes it so raw hex values can be passed through Addr parameters from the configuration scripts.
2014-09-03arm: Fix ExtMachInst hash operator underlying typeAndreas Hansson
This patch fixes the hash operator used for ARM ExtMachInst, which incorrectly was still using uint32_t. Instead of changing it to uint64_t it is not using the underlying data type of the BitUnion.
2014-09-01stats: updates due to recent ruby and x86 changesNilay Vaish
Also updates many out of date config files.
2014-09-01ruby: remove typedef of Index as int64Nilay Vaish
The Index type defined as typedef int64 does not really provide any help since in most places we use primitive types instead of Index. Also, the name Index is very generic that it does not merit being used as a typename.
2014-09-01x86: set op class of two fp instructionsNilay Vaish
This patch sets op class of two fp instructions: movfp and pop x87 stack as IntAluOp since these instructions do not make use of the fp alu.
2014-09-01ruby: PerfectSwitch: moves code to a per vnet helper functionNilay Vaish
This patch moves code from the wakeup() function to a operateVnet(). The aim is to improve the readiblity of the code.
2014-09-01ruby: message buffers: significant changesNilay Vaish
This patch is the final patch in a series of patches. The aim of the series is to make ruby more configurable than it was. More specifically, the connections between controllers are not at all possible (unless one is ready to make significant changes to the coherence protocol). Moreover the buffers themselves are magically connected to the network inside the slicc code. These connections are not part of the configuration file. This patch makes changes so that these connections will now be made in the python configuration files associated with the protocols. This requires each state machine to expose the message buffers it uses for input and output. So, the patch makes these buffers configurable members of the machines. The patch drops the slicc code that usd to connect these buffers to the network. Now these buffers are exposed to the python configuration system as Master and Slave ports. In the configuration files, any master port can be connected any slave port. The file pyobject.cc has been modified to take care of allocating the actual message buffer. This is inline with how other port connections work.
2014-09-01build opts: add MI_example to NULL ISANilay Vaish
A later changeset changes the file src/python/swig/pyobject.cc to include a header file that includes a header file generated at build time depending on the PROTOCOL in use. Since NULL ISA was not specifying any protocol, this resulted in compilation problems. Hence, the changeset.
2014-09-01mem: change the namespace Message to ProtoMessageNilay Vaish
The namespace Message conflicts with the Message data type used extensively in Ruby. Since Ruby is being moved to the same Master/Slave ports based configuration style as the rest of gem5, this conflict needs to be resolved. Hence, the namespace is being renamed to ProtoMessage.
2014-09-01ruby: slicc: change the way configurable members are specifiedNilay Vaish
There are two changes this patch makes to the way configurable members of a state machine are specified in SLICC. The first change is that the data member declarations will need to be separated by a semi-colon instead of a comma. Secondly, the default value to be assigned would now use SLICC's assignment operator i.e. ':='.
2014-09-01ruby: slicc: improve the grammarNilay Vaish
This patch changes the grammar for SLICC so as to remove some of the redundant / duplicate rules. In particular rules for object/variable declaration and class member declaration have been unified. Similarly, the rules for a general function and a class method have been unified. One more change is in the priority of two rules. The first rule is on declaring a function with all the params typed and named. The second rule is on declaring a function with all the params only typed. Earlier the second rule had a higher priority. Now the first rule has a higher priority.
2014-09-01ruby: mesi three level: slight naming changes.Nilay Vaish
2014-09-01ruby: slicc: donot prefix machine name to variablesNilay Vaish
This changeset does away with prefixing of member variables of state machines with the identity of the machine itself.
2014-09-01ruby: remove unused toString() from AbstractControllerNilay Vaish
2014-09-01ruby: network: move getNumNodes() to base classNilay Vaish
All the implementations were doing the same things.
2014-09-01ruby: eliminate type TimeNilay Vaish
There is another type Time in src/base class which results in a conflict.
2014-09-01ruby: move files from ruby/system to ruby/structuresNilay Vaish
The directory ruby/system is crowded and unorganized. Hence, the files the hold actual physical structures, are being moved to the directory ruby/structures. This includes Cache Memory, Directory Memory, Memory Controller, Wire Buffer, TBE Table, Perfect Cache Memory, Timer Table, Bank Array. The directory ruby/systems has the glue code that holds these structures together. --HG-- rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MachineID.hh => src/mem/ruby/common/MachineID.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/buffers/MessageBuffer.cc => src/mem/ruby/network/MessageBuffer.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/buffers/MessageBuffer.hh => src/mem/ruby/network/MessageBuffer.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/buffers/MessageBufferNode.cc => src/mem/ruby/network/MessageBufferNode.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/buffers/MessageBufferNode.hh => src/mem/ruby/network/MessageBufferNode.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/AbstractReplacementPolicy.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/AbstractReplacementPolicy.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/BankedArray.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/BankedArray.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/BankedArray.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/BankedArray.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/Cache.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/Cache.py rename : src/mem/ruby/system/CacheMemory.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/CacheMemory.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/CacheMemory.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/CacheMemory.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/DirectoryMemory.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/DirectoryMemory.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/DirectoryMemory.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/DirectoryMemory.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/DirectoryMemory.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/DirectoryMemory.py rename : src/mem/ruby/system/LRUPolicy.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/LRUPolicy.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryControl.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryControl.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryControl.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryControl.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryControl.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryControl.py rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryNode.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryNode.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryNode.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryNode.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryVector.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryVector.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/PerfectCacheMemory.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/PerfectCacheMemory.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/PersistentTable.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/PersistentTable.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/PersistentTable.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/PersistentTable.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/PseudoLRUPolicy.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/PseudoLRUPolicy.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/RubyMemoryControl.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/RubyMemoryControl.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/RubyMemoryControl.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/RubyMemoryControl.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/RubyMemoryControl.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/RubyMemoryControl.py rename : src/mem/ruby/system/SparseMemory.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/SparseMemory.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/SparseMemory.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/SparseMemory.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/TBETable.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/TBETable.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/TimerTable.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/TimerTable.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/TimerTable.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/TimerTable.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/WireBuffer.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/WireBuffer.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/WireBuffer.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/WireBuffer.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/WireBuffer.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/WireBuffer.py rename : src/mem/ruby/recorder/CacheRecorder.cc => src/mem/ruby/system/CacheRecorder.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/recorder/CacheRecorder.hh => src/mem/ruby/system/CacheRecorder.hh
2014-09-01ruby: Fixes clock domains in configuration filesEmilio Castillo ext:(%2C%20Nilay%20Vaish%20%3Cnilay%40cs.wisc.edu%3E)
This patch fixes scripts related to ruby by adding the ruby clock domain. Now the L1 controllers and the Sequencer shares the cpu clock domain, while the rest of the components use the ruby clock domain. Before this patch, running simulations with the cpu clock set at 2GHz or 1GHz will output the same time results and could distort power measurements. Committed by: Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>
2014-08-28mem: adding architectural page table support for SE modeAlexandru
This patch enables the use of page tables that are stored in system memory and respect x86 specification, in SE mode. It defines an architectural page table for x86 as a MultiLevelPageTable class and puts a placeholder class for other ISAs page tables, giving the possibility for future implementation.
2014-04-01mem: adding a multi-level page table classAlexandru
This patch defines a multi-level page table class that stores the page table in system memory, consistent with ISA specifications. In this way, cpu models that use the actual hardware to execute (e.g. KvmCPU), are able to traverse the page table.
2014-08-26Added tag stable_2014_08_26 for changeset cb2e6950956dNilay Vaish
2014-08-26mem: Fix DRAMSim2 cycle check when restoring from checkpointAndreas Hansson
This patch ensures the cycle check is still valid even restoring from a checkpoint. In this case the DRAMSim2 cycle count is relative to the startTick rather than 0.
2014-08-26base: Add const to intmath and be more flexible with typingAndreas Hansson
This patch ensures the functions can be used on const variables.
2014-08-26style: Add support for a style ignore list and ignore ext/Andreas Sandberg
There are some directories within the repository where we don't want to enforce our coding style. Specifically, we don't want the style hooks to warn whenever we update external code in the ext/ directory.
2014-08-26style: Fixup strange semantics in hg m5styleAndreas Sandberg
The 'hg m5style' command had some rather strange semantics. When called without arguments, it applied the style checker to all added files and modified regions of modified files. However, when providing a list of files, it used that list as an ignore list instead of specifically checking those files. This patch makes the m5style command behave more like other Mercurial commands where the arguments are used to specify which files to work on instead of which files to ignore.
2014-08-26base: Replace the internal varargs stuff with C++11 constructsAndreas Sandberg
We currently use our own home-baked support for type-safe variadic functions. This is confusing and somewhat limited (e.g., cprintf only supports a limited number of arguments). This changeset converts all uses of our internal varargs support to use C++11 variadic macros.
2014-08-26base: Add compiler macros for C++11 final/overrideAndreas Sandberg
Add the macros M5_ATTR_FINAL and M5_ATTR_OVERRIDE which are defined to final and override respectively if supported by the compiler. This is done to allow a smooth transition to gcc >= 4.7.
2014-08-26mips: Fix RLIMIT_RSS namingMitch Hayenga
MIPS defined RLIMIT_RSS in a way that could cause a naming conflict with RLIMIT_RSS from the host system. Broke clang+MacOS build.
2014-08-26base: Add a static assert to check bit union rangesAndreas Sandberg
If a bit field in a bit union specified as Bitfield<LSB, MSB> instead of Bitfield<MSB, LSB> the code silently fails and the field is read as zero. This changeset introduces a static assert that tests, at compile time, that the bit order is correct.
2014-08-26sparc: Fixup bit ordering in the PSTATE bit unionAndreas Sandberg
The order of the MSB and LSB bit of the mm field in the PSTATE union is wrong. Any access to this field will currently be ignored and reads will always return zero. This patch fixes the ordering so it is <MSB, LSB> instead of <LSB, MSB>.
2014-08-26mem: Update DRAM controller commentsAndreas Hansson
Update comments and add a reference for more information.
2014-08-26mem: Fix address interleaving bug in DRAM controllerAndreas Hansson
This patch fixes a bug in the DRAM controller address decoding. In cases where the DRAM burst size (e.g. 32 bytes in a rank with a single LPDDR3 x32) was smaller than the channel interleaving size (e.g. systems with a 64-byte cache line) one address bit effectively got used as a channel bit when it should have been a low-order column bit. This patch adds a notion of "columns per stripe", and more clearly deals with the low-order column bits and high-order column bits. The patch also relaxes the granularity check such that it is possible to use interleaving granularities other than the cache line size. The patch also adds a missing M5_CLASS_VAR_USED to the tCK member as it is only used in the debug build for now.
2014-02-05sim: bump checkpoint version for multiple event queuesCurtis Dunham
This patch adds a fix for older checkpoints before support for multiple event queues were added in changeset 2cce74fe359e. The change in checkpoint version should really hav ebeen part of the aforementioned changeset.
2014-08-26misc: README direct to website for dependenciesAndreas Hansson
This patch updates the README to direct the user to the appropriate sections on the gem5.org website rather than duplicating information.
2014-08-13arm: change MISCREG_L2ERRSR to warn not failDam Sunwoo
Some newer binaries compiled for Versatile Express TC2 contain access to implementation specific L2MERRSR registers. This causes an infinite loop of undefined exceptions. This patch changes the behavior to "warn not fail" to keep the workloads going.
2014-08-13sim: remove kernel mapping check for baremetal workloadsDam Sunwoo
Baremetal workloads are specified using the "kernel" parameter, but don't always have the correct address mappings. This patch adds a boolean flag to the system and bypasses the kernel addr mapping checks when running in baremetal mode.
2014-08-13scons: Build the branch predictor for all CPUsAndreas Sandberg
The branch predictor is normally only built when a CPU that uses a branch predictor is built. The list of CPUs is currently incomplete as the simple CPUs support branch predictors (for warming, branch stats, etc). In practice, all CPU models now use branch predictors, so this changeset removes the CPU model check and replaces it with a check for the NULL ISA.
2014-08-13mips: Remove unused private members to fix compile-time warningAndreas Sandberg
Certain versions of clang complain about unused private members if they are not used. This changeset removes such members from the MIPS-specific classes to silence the warning.
2014-08-13power: Remove unused private members to fix compile-time warningAndreas Sandberg
Certain versions of clang complain about unused private members if they are not used. This changeset removes such members from the POWER-specific ProcessInfo struct to silence the warning.
2014-08-13scons: Silence clang 3.4 warnings on Ubuntu 12.04Andreas Sandberg
This changeset fixes three types of warnings that occur in clang 3.4 on Ubuntu 12.04: * Certain versions of libstdc++ (primarily 4.8) use struct and class interchangeably. This triggers a warning in clang. * Swig has a tendency to generate code with the register class which was deprecated in C++11. This triggers a deprecation warning in clang. * Swig sometimes generates Python wrapper code which returns uninitialized values. It's unclear if this is actually a problem (the cases might be limited to failure paths). We'll silence these warnings for now since there is little we can do about the generated code.
2014-08-13base: Remove unused M5_PRAGMA_NORETURNAndreas Sandberg
The M5_PRAGMA_NORETURN macro was only used in for __exit_message. Since the macro only holds a stub definition and all functions with noreturn semantics use the M5_ATTR_NORETURN, this macros is completely redundant.
2014-08-13cpu: Don't forward declare RefCountingPtrAndreas Sandberg
RefCountingPtr is sometimes forward declared to avoid having to include refcnt.hh. This does not work since we typically return instances of RefCountingPtr rather than references to instances. The only reason this currently works is that we include refcnt.hh in cprintf.hh, which "leaks" the header to most other source files. This changeset replaces such forward declarations with an include of refcnt.hh.
2014-08-13util: Fix state leakage in the SortIncludes style verifierAndreas Sandberg
There are cases where the state of a SortIncludes object gets messed up and leaks between invocations/files. This typically happens when a file ends with an include block (dump_block() gets called at the end of __call__). In this case, the state of the class is not reset between files. This bug manifests itself as ghost includes that leak between files when applying the style hooks. This changeset adds a reset at the beginning of the __call__ method which ensures that the class is always in a clean state when processing a new file.
2014-08-13mem: Properly set cache block status fields on writebacksMitch Hayenga
When a cacheline is written back to a lower-level cache, tags->insertBlock() sets various status parameters. However these status bits were cleared immediately after calling. This patch makes it so that these status fields are not cleared by moving them outside of the tags->insertBlock() call.
