2017-05-18configs: fix cpu names in big.LITTLE examplePierre-Yves Péneau
CPU aliases have been dropped, this change fixes the big.LITTLE example.

2017-05-18arm, config: added support for ex5 model of big.LITTLEPierre-Yves Péneau
This patch enables using calibrated big and LITTLE cores, ex5_big and ex5_LITTLE instead of the default 'arm_detailed' and 'minor' cpus. The ex5 model is based on the Samsung Exynos 5 Octa (5422) SoC. Operation and memory hierarchy latencies have been calibrated using the lmbench micro-benchmark suite. The preliminary validation results have been published as: 'Full-System Simulation of big.LITTLE Multicore Architecture for Performance and Energy Exploration', in International Symposium on Embedded Multicore/Many-core Systems-on-Chip (MCSoC'16), Lyon, France (Sep, 2016).

Add support for KVM in the big.LITTLE(tm) example configuration. This replaces the --atomic option with a --cpu-type option that can be used to switch between atomic, kvm, and timing simulation. When running in KVM mode, the simulation script automatically assigns separate event queues (threads) to each of the simulated CPUs. All simulated devices, including CPU child devices (e.g., interrupt controllers and caches), are assigned to event queue 0.

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.

2016-10-14config: 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.
