2013-03-27scons: don't die on warnings in swig-generated codeSteve Reinhardt
There's not much to do about it other than disable the offending warning anyway, so it's not worth terminating the build over. Also suppress uninitialized variable warnings on gcc (happens at least with gcc 4.4 and swig 1.3.40).
2013-02-19scons: Unify the flags shared by gcc and clangAndreas Hansson
This patch restructures and unifies the flags used by gcc and clang as they are largely the same. The common parts are now dealt with in a shared block of code, and the few bits and pieces that are specifically affecting either gcc or clang are done separately.
2013-02-19scons: Add warning delete with non-virtual destructorAndreas Hansson
This patch enables a warning for deleting derived classes that do not have a virtual destructor. The patch merely adds additional checks, and there are currently no cases that had to be fixed.
2013-02-19scons: Add warning for missing declarationsAndreas Hansson
This patch enables warnings for missing declarations. To avoid issues with SWIG-generated code, the warning is only applied to non-SWIG code.
2013-01-07scons: Remove stale compiler optionsAndreas Hansson
This patch simply prunes the SUNCC and ICC compiler options as they are both sufficiently stale that they would have to be re-written from scratch anyhow. The patch serves to clean things up before shifting to a build environment that enforces basic c++11 compliance as done in the following patch.
2013-01-07scons: Add support for google protobuf buildingAndreas Hansson
This patch enables the use of protobuf input files in the build process, thus allowing .proto files to be added to input. Each .proto file is compiled using the protoc tool and the newly created C++ source is added to the list of sources. The first location where the protobufs will be used is in the capturing and replay of memory traces, involving the communication monitor and the trace-generator state of the traffic generator. This will follow in the next patch. This patch does add a dependency on the availability of the BSD licensed protobuf library (and headers), and the protobuf compiler, protoc. These dependencies are checked in the SConstruct, similar to e.g. swig. The user can override the use of protoc from the PATH by specifying the PROTOC environment variable. Although the dependency on libprotobuf and protoc might seem like a big step, they add significant value to the project going forward. Execution traces and other types of traces could easily be added and parsers for C++ and Python are automatically generated. We could also envision using protobufs for the checkpoints, description of the traffic-generator behaviour etc. The sky is the limit. We could also use the GzipOutputStream from the protobuf library instead of the current GPL gzstream. Currently, only the C++ source and header is generated. Going forward we might want to add the Python output to support simple command-line tools for displaying and editing the traces.
2012-11-02sim: Include object header files in SWIG interfacesAndreas Sandberg
When casting objects in the generated SWIG interfaces, SWIG uses classical C-style casts ( (Foo *)bar; ). In some cases, this can degenerate into the equivalent of a reinterpret_cast (mainly if only a forward declaration of the type is available). This usually works for most compilers, but it is known to break if multiple inheritance is used anywhere in the object hierarchy. This patch introduces the cxx_header attribute to Python SimObject definitions, which should be used to specify a header to include in the SWIG interface. The header should include the declaration of the wrapped object. We currently don't enforce header the use of the header attribute, but a warning will be generated for objects that do not use it.
2012-09-25build: Add missing dependencies when building param SWIG interfacesAndreas Sandberg
This patch adds an explicit dependency between param_%s.i and the Python source file defining the object. Previously, the build system didn't rebuild SWIG interfaces correctly when an object's Python sources were updated.
2012-09-14gcc: Enable Link-Time Optimization for gcc >= 4.6Andreas Hansson
This patch adds Link-Time Optimization when building the fast target using gcc >= 4.6, and adds a scons flag to disable it (-no-lto). No check is performed to guarantee that the linker supports LTO and use of the linker plugin, so the user has to ensure that binutils GNU ld >= 2.21 or the gold linker is available. Typically, if gcc >= 4.6 is available, the latter should not be a problem. Currently the LTO option is only useful for gcc >= 4.6, due to the limited support on clang and earlier versions of gcc. The intention is to also add support for clang once the LTO integration matures. The same number of jobs is used for the parallel phase of LTO as the jobs specified on the scons command line, using the -flto=n flag that was introduced with gcc 4.6. The gold linker also supports concurrent and incremental linking, but this is not used at this point. The compilation and linking time is increased by almost 50% on average, although ARM seems to be particularly demanding with an increase of almost 100%. Also beware when using this as gcc uses a tremendous amount of memory and temp space in the process. You have been warned. After some careful consideration, and plenty discussions, the flag is only added to the fast target, and the warning that was issued in an earlier version of this patch is now removed. Similarly, the flag used to enable LTO, now the default is to use it, and the flag has been modified to disable LTO. The rationale behind this decision is that opt is used for development, whereas fast is only used for long runs, e.g. regressions or more elaborate experiments where the additional compile and link time is amortized by a much larger run time. When it comes to the return on investment, the regression seems to be roughly 15% faster with LTO. For a bit more detail, I ran twolf on ARM.fast, with three repeated runs, and they all finish within 42 minutes (+- 25 seconds) without LTO and 31 minutes (+- 25 seconds) with LTO, i.e. LTO gives an impressive >25% speed-up for this case. Without LTO (ARM.fast twolf) real 42m37.632s user 42m34.448s sys 0m0.390s real 41m51.793s user 41m50.384s sys 0m0.131s real 41m45.491s user 41m39.791s sys 0m0.139s With LTO (ARM.fast twolf) real 30m33.588s user 30m5.701s sys 0m0.141s real 31m27.791s user 31m24.674s sys 0m0.111s real 31m25.500s user 31m16.731s sys 0m0.106s
2012-09-14scons: Add a target for google-perftools profilingAndreas Hansson
This patch adds a new target called 'perf' that facilitates profiling using google perftools rather than gprof. The perftools CPU profiler offers plenty useful information in addition to gprof, and the latter is kept mostly to offer profiling also on non-Linux hosts.
2012-09-14scons: Restructure ccflags and ldflagsAndreas Hansson
This patch restructures the ccflags such that the common parts are defined in a single location, also capturing all the target types in a single place. The patch also adds a corresponding ldflags in preparation for google-perf profiling support and the addition of Link-Time Optimization.
2012-08-28swig: Disable unused value warning with llvm 3.1 compilersAndreas Hansson
This patch disables a warning for unused values which causes problems when compiling the swig-generated sources using recent llvm-based compilers like llvm-gcc and clang.

2012-04-14clang/gcc: Fix compilation issues with clang 3.0 and gcc 4.6Andreas Hansson
This patch addresses a number of minor issues that cause problems when compiling with clang >= 3.0 and gcc >= 4.6. Most importantly, it avoids using the deprecated ext/hash_map and instead uses unordered_map (and similarly so for the hash_set). To make use of the new STL containers, g++ and clang has to be invoked with "-std=c++0x", and this is now added for all gcc versions >= 4.6, and for clang >= 3.0. For gcc >= 4.3 and <= 4.5 and clang <= 3.0 we use the tr1 unordered_map to avoid the deprecation warning. The addition of c++0x in turn causes a few problems, as the compiler is more stringent and adds a number of new warnings. Below, the most important issues are enumerated: 1) the use of namespaces is more strict, e.g. for isnan, and all headers opening the entire namespace std are now fixed. 2) another other issue caused by the more stringent compiler is the narrowing of the embedded python, which used to be a char array, and is now unsigned char since there were values larger than 128. 3) a particularly odd issue that arose with the new c++0x behaviour is found in range.hh, where the operator< causes gcc to complain about the template type parsing (the "<" is interpreted as the beginning of a template argument), and the problem seems to be related to the begin/end members introduced for the range-type iteration, which is a new feature in c++11. As a minor update, this patch also fixes the build flags for the clang debug target that used to be shared with gcc and incorrectly use "-ggdb".
2012-04-13SCons: restore Werror option in src/SConscriptSteve Reinhardt
Partial backout of cset 8b223e308b08. Although it's great that there's currently no need for Werror=false in the current tree, some of us have uncommitted code that still needs this option.
2012-04-09tests: Fix building unit tests.Gabe Black
Unit tests shouldn't build in gem5's main function because they have thier own.
2012-03-22Scons: Remove Werror=False in SConscript filesAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the overriding of "-Werror" in a handful of cases. The code compiles with gcc 4.6.3 and clang 3.0 without any warnings, and thus without any errors. There are no functional changes introduced by this patch. In the future, rather than ypassing "-Werror", address the warnings.
2012-03-06build scripts: Made minor modifications to reduce build overhead time.Marc Orr
1. --implicit-cache behavior is default. 2. makeEnv in src/SConscript is conditionally called. 3. decider set to MD5-timestamp 4. NO_HTML build option changed to SLICC_HTML (defaults to False)
2012-01-31clang: Enable compiling gem5 using clang 2.9 and 3.0Koan-Sin Tan
This patch adds the necessary flags to the SConstruct and SConscript files for compiling using clang 2.9 and later (on Ubuntu et al and OSX XCode 4.2), and also cleans up a bunch of compiler warnings found by clang. Most of the warnings are related to hidden virtual functions, comparisons with unsigneds >= 0, and if-statements with empty bodies. A number of mismatches between struct and class are also fixed. clang 2.8 is not working as it has problems with class names that occur in multiple namespaces (e.g. Statistics in kernel_stats.hh). clang has a bug (http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=7247) which causes confusion between the container std::set and the function Packet::set, and this is currently addressed by not including the entire namespace std, but rather selecting e.g. "using std::vector" in the appropriate places.
2012-01-09SWIG: Make gem5 compile and link with swig 2.0.4Andreas Hansson
To make gem5 compile and run with swig 2.0.4 a few minor fixes are necessary, the fail label issues by swig must not be treated as an error by gcc (tested with gcc 4.2.1), and the vector wrappers must have SWIGPY_SLICE_ARG defined which happens in pycontainer.swg, included through std_container.i. By adding the aforementioned include to the vector wrappers everything seems to work.
2011-11-09GCC: Guard some gcc flags so they're used when available and needed.Gabe Black
2011-10-31GCC: Get everything working with gcc 4.6.1.Gabe Black
And by "everything" I mean all the quick regressions.
2011-10-20scons/swig: refactor some of the scons/SWIG codeSteve Reinhardt
- Move the random bits of SWIG code generation out of src/SConscript file and into methods on the objects being wrapped. - Cleaned up some variable naming and added some comments to make the process a little clearer. - Did a little generated file/module renaming: - vptype_Foo now Foo_vector - init_Foo is now Foo_init This makes it easier to see all the Foo-related files in a sorted directory listing. - Made cxx_predecls and swig_predecls normal SimObject classmethods. - Got rid of swig_objdecls hook, even though this breaks the System objects get/setMemoryMode method exports. Will be fixing this in a future changeset.

2011-06-02scons: rename some things from m5 to gem5Nathan Binkert
The default generated binary is now gem5.<type> instead of m5.<type>. The latter does still work but gem5.<type> will be generated first and then m5.<type> will be hard linked to it.

2011-04-15unittest: Make unit tests capable of using swig and python, convert stattestNathan Binkert
2011-04-15scons: make a flexible system for guarding source filesNathan Binkert
This is similar to guards on mercurial queues and they're used for selecting which files are compiled into some given object. We already do something similar, but it's mostly hard coded for the m5 binary and the m5 library and I'd like to make it more flexible to better support the unittests
2011-04-15trace: reimplement the DTRACE function so it doesn't use a vectorNathan Binkert
At the same time, rename the trace flags to debug flags since they have broader usage than simply tracing. This means that --trace-flags is now --debug-flags and --trace-help is now --debug-help
2011-03-11SCons: Stop embedding the mercurial revision into the binary.Gabe Black
This causes a lot of rebuilds that could have otherwise possibly been avoided, and, more annoyingly, a lot of unnecessary rerunning of the regressions. The benefits of having the revision in the output haven't materialized, so this change removes it.
2011-02-14Info: Clean up some info files.Gabe Black
Get rid of RELEASE_NOTES since we no longer do releases, update some of the information in README, and update the date in LICENSE.
2011-01-07scons: show sources and targets when building, and colorize output.Steve Reinhardt
I like the brevity of Ali's recent change, but the ambiguity of sometimes showing the source and sometimes the target is a little confusing. This patch makes scons typically list all sources and all targets for each action, with the common path prefix factored out for brevity. It's a little more verbose now but also more informative. Somehow Ali talked me into adding colors too, which is a whole 'nother story.
2011-01-03Make commenting on close namespace brackets consistent.Steve Reinhardt
Ran all the source files through 'perl -pi' with this script: s|\s*(};?\s*)?/\*\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*\*/(\s*})?|} // namespace $3|; s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*|} // namespace $2\n|; s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(\S+)\s*namespace\s*|} // namespace $1\n|; Also did a little manual editing on some of the arch/*/isa_traits.hh files and src/SConscript.

2010-11-06scons: Replace the build_dir parameter to SConscript with variant_dir.Gabe Black
The build_dir parameter name has been deprecated and replaced with variant_dir. This change switches us over to avoid warning spew in newer versions of scons.
2010-09-12swig: make all generated files go into the m5.internal packageNathan Binkert
This is necessary because versions of swig older than 1.3.39 fail to do the right thing and try to do relative imports for everything (even with the package= option to %module). Instead of putting params in the m5.internal.params package, put params in the m5.internal package and make all param modules start with param_. Same thing for m5.internal.enums. Also, stop importing all generated params into m5.objects. They are not necessary and now with everything using relative imports we wound up with pollution of the namespace (where builtin-range got overridden). --HG-- rename : src/python/m5/internal/enums/__init__.py => src/python/m5/internal/enums.py rename : src/python/m5/internal/params/__init__.py => src/python/m5/internal/params.py
2010-09-09scons: Stop building the big monolithic swigged params moduleNathan Binkert
kill params.i and create a separate .i for each object (param, enums, etc.)
2010-09-09init: don't build files that centralize python and swig codeNathan Binkert
Instead of putting all object files into m5/object/__init__.py, interrogate the importer to find out what should be imported. Instead of creating a single file that lists all of the embedded python modules, use static object construction to put those objects onto a list. Do something similar for embedded swig (C++) code.
2010-09-09scons: use code_formatter wherever we can in the build systemNathan Binkert
2010-07-21python: Add mechanism to override code compiled into the exectuableNathan Binkert
If the user sets the environment variable M5_OVERRIDE_PY_SOURCE to True, then imports that would normally find python code compiled into the executable will instead first check in the absolute location where the code was found during the build of the executable. This only works for files in the src (or extras) directories, not automatically generated files. This is a developer feature!
2010-04-15scons: don't maintain files in sorted orderNathan Binkert
This causes builds to happen in sorted order rather than in declaration order. This gets annoying when you make a global change and then you notice that the files that are being compiled are jumping around the directory hierarchy.

2009-09-22python: Move more code into m5.util allow SCons to use that code.Nathan Binkert
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. --HG-- rename : src/python/m5/convert.py => src/python/m5/util/convert.py rename : src/python/m5/smartdict.py => src/python/m5/util/smartdict.py
