2012-02-24MEM: Make port proxies use references rather than pointersAndreas Hansson
This patch is adding a clearer design intent to all objects that would not be complete without a port proxy by making the proxies members rathen than dynamically allocated. In essence, if NULL would not be a valid value for the proxy, then we avoid using a pointer to make this clear. The same approach is used for the methods using these proxies, such as loadSections, that now use references rather than pointers to better reflect the fact that NULL would not be an acceptable value (in fact the code would break and that is how this patch started out). Overall the concept of "using a reference to express unconditional composition where a NULL pointer is never valid" could be done on a much broader scale throughout the code base, but for now it is only done in the locations affected by the proxies.

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.

2012-01-17MEM: 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
2012-01-16Alpha: warn_once about broken PAL breakpoints.Steve Reinhardt
A recent changeset (aae12ce9f34c) removed support for PAL-mode breakpoints in Alpha, since it was awkward and likely unused. This patch lets a user know if they potentially run into this limitation.

2011-10-30System: Push boot_cpu_frequency down into the subclasses that actually use it.Gabe Black
This parameter depends on a number of coincidences to work properly. First, there must be an array assigned to system called "cpu" even though there's no parameter called that. Second, the items in the "cpu" array have to have a "clock" parameter which has a "frequency" member. This is true of the normal CPUs, but isn't true of the memory tester CPUs. This happened to work before because the memory tester CPUs were only used in SE mode where this parameter was being excluded. Since everything is being pulled into a common binary, this won't work any more. Since the boot_cpu_frequency parameter is only used by Alpha's Linux System object (and Mips's through copy and paste), the definition of that parameter is moved down to those objects specifically.
2011-10-22SE: move page allocation from PageTable to ProcessSteve Reinhardt
PageTable supported an allocate() call that called back through the Process to allocate memory, but did not have a method to map addresses without allocating new pages. It makes more sense for Process to do the allocation, so this method was renamed allocateMem() and moved to Process, and uses a new map() call on PageTable. The remaining uses of the process pointer in PageTable were only to get the name and the PID, so by passing these in directly in the constructor, we can make PageTable completely independent of Process.

2011-10-09SE/FS: Build the Interrupt objects in SE mode.Gabe Black
2011-09-30SE/FS: Remove System::platform and Platform::intrFrequency.Gabe Black
In order for a system object to work in SE mode and FS mode, it has to either always require a platform object even in SE mode, or get rid of the requirement all together. Making SE mode carry around unnecessary/unused bits of FS seems less than ideal, so I decided to go with the second option. The platform pointer in the System class was used for exactly one purpose, a path for the Alpha Linux system object to get to the real time clock and read its frequency so that it could short cut the loops_per_jiffy calculation. There was also a copy and pasted implementation in MIPS, but since it was only there because it was there in Alpha I still count that as one use. This change reverses the mechanism that communicates the RTC frequency so that the Tsunami platform object pushes it up to the AlphaSystem object. This is slightly less specific than it could be because really only the AlphaLinuxSystem uses it. Because the intrFrequency function on the Platform class was no longer necessary (and unimplemented on anything but Alpha) it was eliminated. After this change, a platform will need to have a system, but a system won't have to have a platform.
2011-09-30SE/FS: Use the new FullSystem constant where possible.Gabe Black
2011-09-27Faults: Replace calls to genMachineCheckFault with M5PanicFault.Gabe Black
2011-09-26ISA parser: Use '_' instead of '.' to delimit type modifiers on operands.Gabe Black
By using an underscore, the "." is still available and can unambiguously be used to refer to members of a structure if an operand is a structure, class, etc. This change mostly just replaces the appropriate "."s with "_"s, but there were also a few places where the ISA descriptions where handling the extensions themselves and had their own regular expressions to update. The regular expressions in the isa parser were updated as well. It also now looks for one of the defined type extensions specifically after connecting "_" where before it would look for any sequence of characters after a "." following an operand name and try to use it as the extension. This helps to disambiguate cases where a "_" may legitimately be part of an operand name but not separate the name from the type suffix. Because leaving the "_" and suffix on the variable name still leaves a valid C++ identifier and all extensions need to be consistent in a given context, I considered leaving them on as a breadcrumb that would show what the intended type was for that operand. Unfortunately the operands can be referred to in code templates, the Mem operand in particular, and since the exact type of Mem can be different for different uses of the same template, that broke things.

These functions aren't called anywhere and are probably only theoretically useful.

2011-09-09StaticInst: Merge StaticInst and StaticInstBase.Gabe Black
Having two StaticInst classes, one nominally ISA dependent and the other ISA dependent, has not been historically useful and makes the StaticInst class more complicated that it needs to be. This change merges StaticInstBase into StaticInst.
2011-09-09Decode: Pull instruction decoding out of the StaticInst class into its own.Gabe Black
This change pulls the instruction decoding machinery (including caches) out of the StaticInst class and puts it into its own class. This has a few intrinsic benefits. First, the StaticInst code, which has gotten to be quite large, gets simpler. Second, the code that handles decode caching is now separated out into its own component and can be looked at in isolation, making it easier to understand. I took the opportunity to restructure the code a bit which will hopefully also help. Beyond that, this change also lays some ground work for each ISA to have its own, potentially stateful decode object. We'd be able to include less contextualizing information in the ExtMachInst objects since that context would be applied at the decoder. Also, the decoder could "know" ahead of time that all the instructions it's going to see are going to be, for instance, 64 bit mode, and it will have one less thing to check when it decodes them. Because the decode caching mechanism has been separated out, it's now possible to have multiple caches which correspond to different types of decoding context. Having one cache for each element of the cross product of different configurations may become prohibitive, so it may be desirable to clear out the cache when relatively static state changes and not to have one for each setting. Because the decode function is no longer universally accessible as a static member of the StaticInst class, a new function was added to the ThreadContexts that returns the applicable decode object.

2011-07-07alpha:hwrei:rollback for o3Korey Sewell
change hwrei back to being a non-control instruction so O3-FS mode will work add squash in inorder that will catch a hwrei (or any other genric instruction) that isnt a control inst but changes the PC. Additional testing still needs to be done for inorder-FS mode but this change will free O3 development back up in the interim

2011-06-19inorder/dtb: make sure DTB translate correct addressKorey Sewell
The DTB expects the correct PC in the ThreadContext but how if the memory accesses are speculative? Shouldn't we send along the requestor's PC to the translate functions?

2011-06-19alpha: naming for dtb faultsKorey Sewell
Just "dfault" gets confusing while debugging. Why not differentiate whether it's an access violation or page fault
2011-06-19alpha: make hwrei a control instKorey Sewell
this always changes the PC and is basically an impromptu branch instruction. why not speculate on this instead of always be forced to mispredict/squash after the hwrei gets resolved? The InOrder model needs this marked as "isControl" so it knows to update the PC after the ALU executes it. If this isnt marked as control, then it's going to force the model to check the PC of every instruction at commit (what O3 does?), and that would be a wasteful check for a very high percentage of instructions.

2011-03-26mips: cleanup ISA-specific codeKorey Sewell
*** (1): get rid of expandForMT function MIPS is the only ISA that cares about having a piece of ISA state integrate multiple threads so add constants for MIPS and relieve the other ISAs from having to define this. Also, InOrder was the only core that was actively calling this function * * * (2): get rid of corespecific type The CoreSpecific type was used as a proxy to pass in HW specific params to a MIPS CPU, but since MIPS FS hasnt been touched for awhile, it makes sense to not force every other ISA to use CoreSpecific as well use a special reset function to set it. That probably should go in a PowerOn reset fault anyway.
