2018-10-19config: add --param to fs.py, se.py and fs_bigLITTLE.pyCiro Santilli
The option allows to set SimObject params from the CLI. The existing config scripts have a large number of options that simply set a single SimObject parameter, and many still are not exposed. This commit allows users to pass arbitrary parameters from the command line to prevent the need for this kind of trivial option.

2018-09-12cpu: Replace the fastmem with a new CPU modelAndreas Sandberg
The AtomicSimpleCPU used to be able to access memory directly to speed up simulation if no caches are used. This is fine as long as no switching between CPU models is required. In order to switch to a new CPU model that requires caches, we currently need to checkpoint the system and restore it into a new configuration. The new 'atomic_noncaching' memory mode provides a solution that avoids this issue since caches are bypassed in this mode. This changeset removes the old fastmem option from the AtomicSimpleCPU and introduces a new CPU, NonCachingSimpleCPU, which derives from the AtomicSimpleCPU. The NonCachingSimpleCPU uses the same mechanism as the AtomicSimpleCPU used to use when accessing memory in when fastmem was enabled. This changeset also introduces a new switcheroo test that tests switching between a NonCachingSimpleCPU and a TimingSimpleCPU with caches.

2018-03-22mem-cache: Split array indexing and replacement policies.Daniel R. Carvalho
Replacement policies (LRU, Random) are currently considered as array indexing methods, but have completely different functionalities: - Array indexers determine the possible locations for block allocation. This information is used to generate replacement candidates when conflicts happen. - Replacement policies determine which of the replacement candidates should be evicted to make room for new allocations. For this reason, they were split into different classes. Advantages: - Easier and more straightforward to implement other replacement policies (RRIP, LFU, ARC, ...) - Allow easier future implementation of cache organization schemes As now we can't assure the use of sets, the previous way to create a true LRU is not viable. Now a timestamp_bits parameter controls how many bits are dedicated for the timestamp, and a true LRU can be achieved through an infinite number of bits (although a few bits suffice in practice).

2017-10-31config: Rework the SysPaths functions into functors.Gabe Black
These functions were already being treated as psuedo objects and had properties assigned to them setting what their paths were. That's a bit unusual and made it less obvious what the code was doing, but also forced the "system" function to know what all the possible path searching functions were so that they'd have their "path" property initialized properly in a central location. This change introduces a PathSearcFunc class which encapsulates the mechanisms of the old code and makes it implicitly extensible so that other path searching functions which might look in other directories can be added in other places.

This ignores the potential mismatch between the target ISA and the ISA assumptions made by the timing models. Instead of unconditionally listing all CPU models in cores.arm, list timing models from cores.generic and cores.${TARGET_ISA}. This ensures that the listed timing models support the ISA that gem5 is targeting.

2017-07-05cpu: Added interface for vector reg fileRekai Gonzalez-Alberquilla
This patch adds some more functionality to the cpu model and the arch to interface with the vector register file. This change consists mainly of augmenting ThreadContexts and ExecContexts with calls to get/set full vectors, underlying microarchitectural elements or lanes. Those are meant to interface with the vector register file. All classes that implement this interface also get an appropriate implementation. This requires implementing the vector register file for the different models using the VecRegContainer class. This change set also updates the Result abstraction to contemplate the possibility of having a vector as result. The changes also affect how the remote_gdb connection works. There are some (nasty) side effects, such as the need to define dummy numPhysVecRegs parameter values for architectures that do not implement vector extensions. Nathanael Premillieu's work with an increasing number of fixes and improvements of mine.

2016-11-30mem: Split the hit_latency into tag_latency and data_latencySophiane Senni
If the cache access mode is parallel, i.e. "sequential_access" parameter is set to "False", tags and data are accessed in parallel. Therefore, the hit_latency is the maximum latency between tag_latency and data_latency. On the other hand, if the cache access mode is sequential, i.e. "sequential_access" parameter is set to "True", tags and data are accessed sequentially. Therefore, the hit_latency is the sum of tag_latency plus data_latency. Signed-off-by: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com>
2016-10-26dev: Add m5 op to toggle synchronization for dist-gem5.Michael LeBeane
This patch adds the ability for an application to request dist-gem5 to begin/ end synchronization using an m5 op. When toggling on sync, all nodes agree on the next sync point based on the maximum of all nodes' ticks. CPUs are suspended until the sync point to avoid sending network messages until sync has been enabled. Toggling off sync acts like a global execution barrier, where all CPUs are disabled until every node reaches the toggle off point. This avoids tricky situations such as one node hitting a toggle off followed by a toggle on before the other nodes hit the first toggle off.
2016-10-26config: Break out base options for usage with NULL ISAAndreas Hansson
This patch breaks out the most basic configuration options into a set of base options, to allow them to be used also by scripts that do not involve any ISA, and thus no actual CPUs or devices. The patch also fixes a few modules so that they can be imported in a NULL build, and avoid dragging in FSConfig every time Options is imported.
2016-10-15cpu, arm: Distinguish Float* and SimdFloat*, create FloatMem* opClassFernando Endo
Modify the opClass assigned to AArch64 FP instructions from SimdFloat* to Float*. Also create the FloatMemRead and FloatMemWrite opClasses, which distinguishes writes to the INT and FP register banks. Change the latency of (Simd)FloatMultAcc to 5, based on the Cortex-A72, where the "latency" of FMADD is 3 if the next instruction is a FMADD and has only the augend to destination dependency, otherwise it's 7 cycles.

2016-10-14config: Make configs/common a Python packageAndreas Hansson
Continue along the same line as the recent patch that made the Ruby-related config scripts Python packages and make also the configs/common directory a package. All affected config scripts are updated (hopefully). Note that this change makes it apparent that the current organisation and naming of the config directory and its subdirectories is rather chaotic. We mix scripts that are directly invoked with scripts that merely contain convenience functions. While it is not addressed in this patch we should follow up with a re-organisation of the config structure, and renaming of some of the packages.
2016-10-13ruby: Fix regressions and make Ruby configs Python packagesAndreas Hansson
This patch moves the addition of network options into the Ruby module to avoid the regressions all having to add it explicitly. Doing this exposes an issue in our current config system though, namely the fact that addtoPath is relative to the Python script being executed. Since both example and regression scripts use the Ruby module we would end up with two different (relative) paths being added. Instead we take a first step at turning the config modules into Python packages, simply by adding a __init__.py in the configs/ruby, configs/topologies and configs/network subdirectories. As a result, we can now add the top-level configs directory to the Python search path, and then use the package names in the various modules. The example scripts are also updated, and the messy path-deducing variations in the scripts are unified.

2016-08-12mem: Add snoop filter to SystemXBar by defaultAndreas Hansson
This patch changes the default behaviour of the SystemXBar, adding a snoop filter. With the recent updates to the snoop filter allocation behaviour this change no longer causes problems for the regressions without caches.

2016-07-19config: Allow SPARC FS image to be specified on the command lineJakub Jermar
At the moment the SPARC FS machine configuration comes with a hardcoded value for using the Solaris 10 disk image from the OpenSPARC tarball. The --disk-image option is completely ignored for SPARC. This simple patch modifies the behavior so that --disk-image option is both taken into account and also required. This makes it possible to easily change SPARC FS images without having to modify the configuration files.
