A significant contributor to the need for adoptOrphanParams()
is the practice of appending to SimObjectVectors which have
already been assigned as children. This practice sidesteps the
assignment operation for those appended SimObjects, which is
where parent/child relationships are typically established.
This patch reworks the config scripts that use append() on
SimObjectVectors, which all happen to be in the x86 system
configuration. At some point in the future, I hope to make
SimObjectVectors immutable (by deriving from tuple rather than
list), at which time this patch will be necessary for correct
operation. For now, it just avoids some of the warning
messages that get printed in adoptOrphanParams().

maxinsts & max_inst redundant
prog_intvl and profile seem redundant, but profile looks to be unused
add -p option for progress intervals

This patch moves the assignment of testsys.switch_cpus, testsys.switch_cpus_1,
switch_cpu_list, and switch_cpu_list1 outside of the for loop so they are
assigned only once, after switch_cpus and switch_cpus_1 are constructed.

non-cache.
This change fixes the problem for all the cases we actively use. If you want to try
more creative I/O device attachments (E.g. sharing an L2), this won't work. You
would need another level of caching between the I/O device and the cache
(which you actually need anyway with our current code to make sure writes
propagate). This is required so that you can mark the cache in between as
top level and it won't try to send ownership of a block to the I/O device.
Asserts have been added that should catch any issues.

env was being implicitly imported into Benchmarks.py through SysPaths.py.
This change brings it in explicitly in the file where it's used.

makeArmSystem creates both bare-metal and Linux systems more cleanly.
machine_type was never optional though listed as an optional argument; a system
such as "RealView_PBX" must now be explicitly specified. Now that it is a
required argument, the placement of the arguments has changed slightly
requiring some changes to calls that create ARM systems.

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

This way things that don't care about work count options and/or aren't called
by something that has those command line options set up doesn't have to build
a fake object to carry in inert values.

This makes sure that the address ranges requested for caches and uncached ports
don't conflict with each other, and that accesses which are always uncached
(message signaled interrupts for instance) don't waste time passing through
caches.
|

The disk image to use was always being forced to a particular value. This
change changes what disk image is selected as the default based on the
architecture being built. In the future, a more sophisticated system might be
used that selected a path based on certain rules instead of relying on one off
file names.

Small L1 caches are connected to the TLB walkers when caches are used. This
allows them to participate in the coherence protocol properly.
|
|
Most of the messages in the config scripts that report a time value already
print "@ tick" followed by the current tick value, but a few were printing
"@ cycle". Since this is a distinction that's frequently confusing to new
users, this changes those message to the more accurate and consistent "@ tick".

Physmem has a parameter to be able to mem map a file, however
it isn't actually used. This changeset utilizes the parameter
so a file can be mmapped.

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.

Meant to add these with the previous batch of csets.
|
|
The separate restoreCheckpoint() call is gone; just pass
the checkpoint dir as an optional arg to instantiate().
This change is a precursor to some more extensive
reworking of the startup code.
|
|
Small change to clean up some redundant code.
Should not have any functional impact.

Enforce that the Python Root SimObject is instantiated only
once. The C++ Root object already panics if more than one is
created. This change avoids the need to track what the root
object is, since it's available from Root.getInstance() (if it
exists). It's now redundant to have the user pass the root
object to functions like instantiate(), checkpoint(), and
restoreCheckpoint(), so that arg is gone. Users who use
configs/common/Simulate.py should not notice.

The patch includes direct support for the MI example protocol.

Now ruby_fs creates physical memory of the right size.

Most of these frontend configurations share cache configuration code, pull it out so that
changes to caches don't have to require changing multiple config files.

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.

Connects M5 cpu and dma ports directly to ruby sequencers and dma
sequencers. Rubymem also includes a pio port so that pio requests
and be forwarded to a special pio bus connecting to device pio
ports.
