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.

Get rid of misc.py and just stick misc things in __init__.py
Move utility functions out of SCons files and into m5.util
Move utility type stuff from m5/__init__.py to m5/util/__init__.py
Remove buildEnv from m5 and allow access only from m5.defines
Rename AddToPath to addToPath while we're moving it to m5.util
Rename read_command to readCommand while we're moving it
Rename compare_versions to compareVersions while we're moving it.

-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.

this was double scheduling itself (once in constructor and once in cpu code). also add support for stopping / starting
progress events through repeatEvent flag and also changing the interval of the progress event as well
|
|
interrupt assignment.

Previously there was one per bus, which caused some coherence problems
when more than one decided to respond. Now there is just one on
the main memory bus. The default bus responder on all other buses
is now the downstream cache's cpu_side port. Caches no longer need
to do address range filtering; instead, we just have a simple flag
to prevent snoops from propagating to the I/O bus.

It would be nice to have a more comprehensive mechanism
but this is a big improvement over manually editing the script.
