This patch fixes the currently broken fs.py by specifying the size of
the bridge range rather than the end address. This effectively
subtracts one when determining the address range for the IO bridge
(from IO bus to membus), and thus avoids the overlapping ranges.
|

This patch implements the functionality for forwarding invalidations and
replacements from the L1 cache of the Ruby memory system to the O3 CPU. The
implementation adds a list of ports to RubyPort. Whenever a replacement or an
invalidation is performed, the L1 cache forwards this to all the ports, which
is the LSQ in case of the O3 CPU.

In preparation for the introduction of Master and Slave ports, this
patch removes the default port parameter in the Python port and thus
forces the argument list of the Port to contain only the
description. The drawback at this point is that the config port and
dma port of PCI and DMA devices have to be connected explicitly. This
is key for future diversification as the pio and config port are
slaves, but the dma port is a master.
|
|
This patch makes the bus bridge uni-directional and specialises the
bus ports to be a master port and a slave port. This greatly
simplifies the assumptions on both sides as either port only has to
deal with requests or responses. The following patches introduce the
notion of master and slave ports, and would not be possible without
this split of responsibilities.
In making the bridge unidirectional, the address range mechanism of
the bridge is also changed. For the cases where communication is
taking place both ways, an additional bridge is needed. This causes
issues with the existing mechanism, as the busses cannot determine
when to stop iterating the address updates from the two bridges. To
avoid this issue, and also greatly simplify the specification, the
bridge now has a fixed set of address ranges, specified at creation
time.

Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable
all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has
the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem
and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address
maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is
used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong
to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data
port in a port proxy.
The following replacements are made:
FunctionalPort > PortProxy
TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy
VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy

Currently there is an assumption that restoration from a checkpoint will
happen by first restoring to an atomic CPU and then switching to a timing
CPU. This patch adds support for directly restoring to a timing CPU. It
adds a new option '--restore-with-cpu' which is used to specify the type
of CPU to which the checkpoint should be restored to. It defaults to
'atomic' which was the case before.
|
|
The Ruby Tracer is out of date with the changes that are being carried
out to support checkpointing. Hence, it needs to be removed.

This patch adds a new option for cpu type. This option is of type 'choice'
which is similar to a C++ enum, except that it takes string values as
possible choices. Following options are being removed -- detailed, timing,
inorder.

When a change in the frame buffer from the VNC server is detected, the new
frame is stored out to the m5out/frames_*/ directory. Specifiy the flag
"--frame-capture" when running configs/example/fs.py to enable this behavior.

There are two lines in O3CPU.py that set the dcache and icache
tgts_per_mshr to 20, ignoring any pre-configured value of tgts_per_mshr.
This patch removes these hardcoded lines from O3CPU.py and sets the default
L1 cache mshr targets to 20.

This patch adds a fault model, which provides the probability of a number of
architectural faults in the interconnection network (e.g., data corruption,
misrouting). These probabilities can be used to realistically inject faults
in GARNET and faithfully evaluate the effectiveness of novel resilient NoC
architectures.

These options were missing from the script ruby_fs.py. This patch adds these
options to the script.

This patch drops RUBY as a compile time option. Instead the PROTOCOL option
is used to figure out whether or not to build Ruby. If the specified protocol
is 'None', then Ruby is not compiled.

The patch on Ruby functional accesses made changes to the process of
instantiating controllers and sequencers. The DMA controller and
sequencer was not updated, hence this patch.
|
|
The dma controller in configs/ruby/MI_example.py was not being set correctly.
This patch fixes it.

Addition of functional access support to Ruby necessitated some changes to
the way coherence protocols are written. I had forgotten to update the
Network_test protocol. This patch makes those updates.

This patch removes unnecessary slashes from a couple of python scripts.

|
This patch rpovides functional access support in Ruby. Currently only
the M5Port of RubyPort supports functional accesses. The support for
functional through the PioPort will be added as a separate patch.

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().

Re-enabling implicit parenting (see previous patch) causes current
Ruby config scripts to create some strange hierarchies and generate
several warnings. This patch makes three general changes to address
these issues.
1. The order of object creation in the ruby config files makes the L1
caches children of the sequencer rather than the controller; these
config ciles are rewritten to assign the L1 caches to the
controller first.
2. The assignment of the sequencer list to system.ruby.cpu_ruby_ports
causes the sequencers to be children of system.ruby, generating
warnings because they are already parented to their respective
controllers. Changing this attribute to _cpu_ruby_ports fixes this
because the leading underscore means this is now treated as a plain
Python attribute rather than a child assignment. As a result, the
configuration hierarchy changes such that, e.g.,
system.ruby.cpu_ruby_ports0 becomes system.l1_cntrl0.sequencer.
3. In the topology classes, the routers become children of some random
internal link node rather than direct children of the topology.
The topology classes are rewritten to assign the routers to the
topology object first.

A recent patch broke the ruby network tester by adding -p inside Options.py
which conflicts with the -p inside ruby_network_test.py.
Have removed -p from ruby_network_test.py
|

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

The network tester terminates after injecting for sim_cycles
(default=1000), instead of having to explicitly pass --maxticks from the
command line as before. If fixed_pkts is enabled, the tester only
injects maxpackets number of packets, else it keeps injecting till sim_cycles.
The tester also works with zero command line arguments now.

This patch ensures that both Garnet and the simple networks use the bw value
specified in the topology. To do so, the patch generalizes the specification
of bw for basic links. This value is then translated to the specific value
used by the simple and Garnet networks. Since Garent does not support
non-uniformed link bandwidth, the patch also adds a check to ensure all bws are
equal.

This patch converts links and switches from second class simobjects that were
virtually ignored by the networks (both simple and Garnet) to first class
simobjects that directly correspond to c++ ojbects manipulated by the
topology and network classes. This is especially true for Garnet, where the
links and switches directly correspond to specific C++ objects.
By making this change, many aspects of the Topology class were simplified.

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.
