2012-05-16Config: Fix a typo in the se.py script for setting fastmemAndreas Hansson
This patch changes a hardcoded index 0 to the appropriate CPU index so that fastmem is set correctly for all the CPUs in the system.
2012-05-03Config: Fix help msg for option --mem-sizeJayneel Gandhi
2012-04-17SE Config: Changed se.py to support multithreaded modeJayneel Gandhi
Multithreaded programs did not run by just specifying the binary once on the command line of SE mode.The default mode is multi-programmed mode. Added check in SE mode to run multi-threaded programs in case only one program is specified with multiple CPUS. Default mode is still multi-programmed mode.
2012-04-16Config: Add command line options for disk image and memory sizeJayneel Gandhi
Added the options to Options.py for FS mode with backward compatibility. It is good to provide an option to specify the disk image and the memory size from command line since a lot of disk images are created to support different benchmark suites as well as per user needs. Change in program also leads to change in memory requirements. These options provide the interface to provide both disk image and memory size from the command line and gives more flexibility.
2012-04-06ruby: set SimpleTiming as the default cpuBrad Beckmann
2012-04-06rubytest: seperated read and write ports.Brad Beckmann
This patch allows the ruby tester to support protocols where the i-cache and d-cache are managed by seperate controllers.
2012-04-06MEM: Enable multiple distributed generalized memoriesAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the assumption on having on single instance of PhysicalMemory, and enables a distributed memory where the individual memories in the system are each responsible for a single contiguous address range. All memories inherit from an AbstractMemory that encompasses the basic behaviuor of a random access memory, and provides untimed access methods. What was previously called PhysicalMemory is now SimpleMemory, and a subclass of AbstractMemory. All future types of memory controllers should inherit from AbstractMemory. To enable e.g. the atomic CPU and RubyPort to access the now distributed memory, the system has a wrapper class, called PhysicalMemory that is aware of all the memories in the system and their associated address ranges. This class thus acts as an infinitely-fast bus and performs address decoding for these "shortcut" accesses. Each memory can specify that it should not be part of the global address map (used e.g. by the functional memories by some testers). Moreover, each memory can be configured to be reported to the OS configuration table, useful for populating ATAG structures, and any potential ACPI tables. Checkpointing support currently assumes that all memories have the same size and organisation when creating and resuming from the checkpoint. A future patch will enable a more flexible re-organisation. --HG-- rename : src/mem/PhysicalMemory.py => src/mem/AbstractMemory.py rename : src/mem/PhysicalMemory.py => src/mem/SimpleMemory.py rename : src/mem/physical.cc => src/mem/abstract_mem.cc rename : src/mem/physical.hh => src/mem/abstract_mem.hh rename : src/mem/physical.cc => src/mem/simple_mem.cc rename : src/mem/physical.hh => src/mem/simple_mem.hh
2012-04-05Config: corrects the way Ruby attaches to the DMA portsNilay Vaish
With recent changes to the memory system, a port cannot be assigned a peer port twice. While making use of the Ruby memory system in FS mode, DMA ports were assigned peer twice, once for the classic memory system and once for the Ruby memory system. This patch removes this double assignment of peer ports.
2012-04-05Ruby: Fix the example configurations option parsingAndreas Hansson
This patch fixes the, currently broken, Ruby example scripts to reflect the changes in the parsing of command-line options.
2012-04-03Atomic: Remove the physmem_port and access memory directlyAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the physmem_port from the Atomic CPU and instead uses the system pointer to access the physmem when using the fastmem option. The system already keeps track of the physmem and the valid memory address ranges, and with this patch we merely make use of that existing functionality. As a result of this change, the overloaded getMasterPort in the Atomic CPU can be removed, thus unifying the CPUs.
2012-03-30Ruby: Remove the physMemPort and instead access memory directlyAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the physMemPort from the RubySequencer and instead uses the system pointer to access the physmem. The system already keeps track of the physmem and the valid memory address ranges, and with this patch we merely make use of that existing functionality. The memory is modified so that it is possible to call the access functions (atomic and functional) without going through the port, and the memory is allowed to be unconnected, i.e. have no ports (since Ruby does not attach it like the conventional memory system).
2012-03-28Config: Change the way options are addedNilay Vaish
I am not too happy with the way options are added in files se.py and fs.py currently. This patch moves all the options to the file Options.py, functions from which are called when required.
2012-03-27Config: Move setWorkCountOptions() to Simulation.pyNilay Vaish
The function is presently defined in FSConfig.py, which does not seem to be the correct place for it.

2012-03-11se.py: Changes to ruby portion due to SE/FS mergeNilay Vaish
With the SE/FS merge, interrupt controller is created irrespective of the mode. This patch creates the interrupt controller when Ruby is used and connects its ports.
2012-03-09ARM: Fix memory starting at non-zero address and exceeding max mem for a system.Ali Saidi
2012-03-09CheckerCPU: Make CheckerCPU runtime selectable instead of compile selectableGeoffrey Blake
Enables the CheckerCPU to be selected at runtime with the --checker option from the configs/example/fs.py and configs/example/se.py configuration files. Also merges with the SE/FS changes.

2012-02-14MEM: Fix residual bus ports and make them master/slaveAndreas Hansson
This patch cleans up a number of remaining uses of bus.port which is now split into bus.master and bus.slave. The only non-trivial change is the memtest where the level building now has to be aware of the role of the ports used in the previous level.
2012-02-14Script: Fix the scripts that use the num_cpus cache parameterAndreas Hansson
This patch merely removes the use of the num_cpus cache parameter which no longer exists after the introduction of the masterIds. The affected scripts fail when trying to set the parameter. Note that this patch does not update the regression stats.
2012-02-14MEM: Fix master/slave ports in Ruby and non-regression scriptsAndreas Hansson
This patch brings the Ruby and other scripts up to date with the introduction of the master/slave ports.
2012-02-13MEM: Introduce the master/slave port roles in the Python classesAndreas Hansson
This patch classifies all ports in Python as either Master or Slave and enforces a binding of master to slave. Conceptually, a master (such as a CPU or DMA port) issues requests, and receives responses, and conversely, a slave (such as a memory or a PIO device) receives requests and sends back responses. Currently there is no differentiation between coherent and non-coherent masters and slaves. The classification as master/slave also involves splitting the dual role port of the bus into a master and slave port and updating all the system assembly scripts to use the appropriate port. Similarly, the interrupt devices have to have their int_port split into a master and slave port. The intdev and its children have minimal changes to facilitate the extra port. Note that this patch does not enforce any port typing in the C++ world, it merely ensures that the Python objects have a notion of the port roles and are connected in an appropriate manner. This check is carried when two ports are connected, e.g. bus.master = memory.port. The following patches will make use of the classifications and specialise the C++ ports into masters and slaves.

2012-01-25MEM: Fix fs.py by specifying the range size rather than endAndreas Hansson
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.

2012-01-23O3, Ruby: Forward invalidations from Ruby to O3 CPUNilay Vaish
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.
2012-01-17MEM: Removing the default port peer from Python portsAndreas Hansson
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.
2012-01-17MEM: Make the bus bridge unidirectional and fixed address rangeAndreas Hansson
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.
2012-01-17MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural portsAndreas Hansson
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 --HG-- rename : src/mem/vport.cc => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/vport.hh => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.hh rename : src/mem/translating_port.cc => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/translating_port.hh => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.hh
2012-01-11Ruby: Use map option for selecting b/w sparse and memory vectorNilay Vaish
2012-01-11Config: Add support for restoring using a timing CPUNilay Vaish
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.
