2013-06-03config: Add missing CPUs to --restore-with-cpuAndreas Sandberg
The --restore-with-cpu option didn't use CpuConfig.cpu_names() to determine which CPU names are valid, instead it used a static list of known CPU names. This changeset makes the option parsing code use the CPU list from the CpuConfig module instead.
2013-04-22config: Add a mem-type config option to se/fs scriptsAndreas Hansson
This patch enables selection of the memory controller class through a mem-type command-line option. Behind the scenes, this option is treated much like the cpu-type, and a similar framework is used to resolve the valid options, and translate the short-hand description to a valid class. The regression scripts are updated with a hardcoded memory class for the moment. The best solution going forward is probably to get the memory out of the makeSystem functions, but Ruby complicates things as it does not connect the memory controller to the membus. --HG-- rename : configs/common/CpuConfig.py => configs/common/MemConfig.py
2013-04-22cpu: generate SimPoint basic block vector profilesDam Sunwoo
This patch is based on http://reviews.m5sim.org/r/1474/ originally written by Mitch Hayenga. Basic block vectors are generated (simpoint.bb.gz in simout folder) based on start and end addresses of basic blocks. Some comments to the original patch are addressed and hooks are added to create and resume from checkpoints based on instruction counts dictated by external SimPoint analysis tools. SimPoint creation/resuming options will be implemented as a separate patch.

2013-02-15options: add command line option for dtb fileAnthony Gutierrez
2013-02-15config: Cleanup CPU configurationAndreas Sandberg
The CPUs supported by the configuration scripts used to be hard-coded. This was not ideal for several reasons. For example, the configuration scripts depend on all CPU models even though only a subset might have been compiled. This changeset adds a new module to the configuration scripts that automatically discovers the available CPU models from the compiled SimObjects. As a nice bonus, the use of introspection allows us to automatically generate a list of available CPU models suitable for printing. This list is augmented with the Python doc string from the underlying class if available.
2012-11-19config: Fix description of checkpoint option from cycle to tickAndreas Hansson
This patch merely updates the description of the "take-checkpoints" option to reflect that it is specified in ticks and not in cycles.
2012-09-09se.py: support specifying multiple programs via command lineNilay Vaish
This patch allows for specifying multiple programs via command line. It also adds an option for specifying whether to use of SMT. But SMT does not work for the o3 cpu as of now.
2012-08-15configs: add option for repeatedly switching back-and-forth between cpu types.Anthony Gutierrez
This patch adds a --repeat-switch option that will enable repeat core switching at a user defined period (set with --switch-freq option). currently, a switch can only occur between like CPU types. inorder CPU switching is not supported. *note* this patch simply allows a config that will perform repeat switching, it does not fix drain/switchout functionality. if you run with repeat switching you will hit assertion failures and/or your workload with hang or die.
2012-05-03Config: Fix help msg for option --mem-sizeJayneel Gandhi
2012-04-16Config: Add command line options for disk image and memory sizeJayneel Gandhi
Added the options to Options.py for FS mode with backward compatibility. It is good to provide an option to specify the disk image and the memory size from command line since a lot of disk images are created to support different benchmark suites as well as per user needs. Change in program also leads to change in memory requirements. These options provide the interface to provide both disk image and memory size from the command line and gives more flexibility.
2012-03-28Config: Change the way options are addedNilay Vaish
I am not too happy with the way options are added in files se.py and fs.py currently. This patch moves all the options to the file Options.py, functions from which are called when required.
2012-03-09CheckerCPU: Make CheckerCPU runtime selectable instead of compile selectableGeoffrey Blake
Enables the CheckerCPU to be selected at runtime with the --checker option from the configs/example/fs.py and configs/example/se.py configuration files. Also merges with the SE/FS changes.

2012-01-11Config: Add support for restoring using a timing CPUNilay Vaish
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.
2012-01-10Config: Remove short option string for cpu typeNilay Vaish
2012-01-09ARM: Add support for initparam m5 opAli Saidi
2012-01-05Config: Add an option of type 'choice' for cpu typeNilay Vaish
This patch adds a new option for cpu type. This option is of type 'choice' which is similar to a C++ enum, except that it takes string values as possible choices. Following options are being removed -- detailed, timing, inorder. --HG-- extra : rebase_source : 58885e2e8a88b6af8e6ff884a5922059dbb1a6cb
2011-05-20configs: cleanup redundant/unused optionsKorey Sewell
maxinsts & max_inst redundant prog_intvl and profile seem redundant, but profile looks to be unused add -p option for progress intervals
2011-02-23configs: cache: add cache line size optionKorey Sewell
2011-02-23configs: set default cache paramsKorey Sewell
It's confusing (especially to new users), when you are setting some standard parameters (as defined in Options.py) and they aren't reflected in the simulations so we might as well link the settings in CacheConfig.py to those in Options.py
2011-02-06m5: added work completed monitoring supportBrad Beckmann
2010-08-20ruby: Reduced ruby latenciesBrad Beckmann
The previous slower ruby latencies created a mismatch between the faster M5 cpu models and the much slower ruby memory system. Specifically smp interrupts were much slower and infrequent, as well as cpus moving in and out of spin locks. The result was many cpus were idle for large periods of time. These changes fix the latency mismatch.

2010-01-29ruby: reorganized ruby python configurationBrad Beckmann
Reorganized ruby python configuration so that protocol and ruby memory system configuration code can be shared by multiple front-end configuration files (i.e. memory tester, full system, and hopefully the regression tester). This code works for memory tester, but have not tested fs mode.

2009-09-16configs: add maxinsts option on command lineKorey Sewell
-option to allow threads to run to a max_inst_any_thread which is more useful/quicker in a lot of cases then always having to figure out what tick to run your simulation to.
