2017-08-03configs, arm: Fix incorrect use of mem_range in bL exampleAndreas Sandberg
The change "config: Change mem_range attribute naming in ARM SimpleSystem" modified the SimpleSystem class to be compatible with the MemConfig utility script. While doing so, the way we report the memory ranges supported by the system changed, which broke the bL example configration. This changeset introduces the necessary changes to make the script work again.

This broken when support for CPU aliases was removed ('config: Remove support for CPU aliases.'). This change updates the config scripts to use the full class names instead.

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>

2016-10-26config: Break out base options for usage with NULL ISAAndreas Hansson

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.

2016-02-10mem: Move the point of coherency to the coherent crossbarAndreas Hansson
This patch introduces the ability of making the coherent crossbar the point of coherency. If so, the crossbar does not forward packets where a cache with ownership has already committed to responding, and also does not forward any coherency-related packets that are not intended for a downstream memory controller. Thus, invalidations and upgrades are turned around in the crossbar, and the memory controller only sees normal reads and writes. In addition this patch moves the express snoop promotion of a packet to the crossbar, thus allowing the downstream cache to check the express snoop flag (as it should) for bypassing any blocking, rather than relying on whether a cache is responding or not.

2015-07-20ruby: more flexible ruby tester supportBrad Beckmann
This patch allows the ruby random tester to use ruby ports that may only support instr or data requests. This patch is similar to a previous changeset (8932:1b2c17565ac8) that was unfortunately broken by subsequent changesets. This current patch implements the support in a more straight-forward way. Since retries are now tested when running the ruby random tester, this patch splits up the retry and drain check behavior so that RubyPort children, such as the GPUCoalescer, can perform those operations correctly without having to duplicate code. Finally, the patch also includes better DPRINTFs for debugging the tester.

The patch also enables configuring the TraceCPU to replay traces using the SE and FS script.
