2020-02-01arch,sim: Merge initCPU into the ISA System classes.Gabe Black
Those classes are already ISA specific, so we can just move initCPU's contents there and take it out of utility.hh, utility.cc, and the base System's initState.

2019-12-10arch,cpu,sim: Push syscall number determination up to processes.Gabe Black
The logic that determines which syscall to call was built into the implementation of faults/exceptions or even into the instruction decoder, but that logic can depend on what OS is being used, and sometimes even what version, for example 32bit vs. 64bit. This change pushes that logic up into the Process objects since those already handle a lot of the aspects of emulating the guest OS. Instead, the ISA or fault implementations just notify the rest of the system that a nebulous syscall has happened, and that gets propogated upward until the process does something with it. That's very analogous to how a system call would work on a real machine. When a system call happens, the low level component which detects that should call tc->syscall(&fault), where tc is the relevant thread (or execution) context, and fault is a Fault which can ultimately be set by the system call implementation. The TC implementor (probably a CPU) will then have a chance to do whatever it needs to to handle a system call. Currently only O3 does anything special here. That implementor will end up calling the Process's syscall() method. Once in Process::syscall, the process object will use it's contextual knowledge to determine what system call is being requested. It then calls Process::doSyscall with the right syscall number, where doSyscall centralizes the common mechanism for actually retrieving and calling into the system call implementation.

In Alpha and MIPS, the argc and argv values should be in what happens to be the first and second syscall argument registers, but that's not by definition. The process objects of both those ISAs know what registers to use intrinsically, so there's also no reason to call out to a helper method which acts as a part of the Process's interface to the rest of gem5.

2019-11-18arch: Get rid of the (Big|Little)EndianGuest namespaces.Gabe Black
These namespaces were used to set up an environment/context where there was an implicit guest namespace. This is an issue when there may be multiple guest endiannesses which might be different. In cases where we don't know what the guest endianness is, we can't rely on it being an implicit part of our context since that would be ambiguous. In cases where we do know, for instance in ISA specific code, we can just use the endianness specific version that's appropriate for that context. This also (somewhat) removes the assumption that there is a single endianness that applies for a particular ISA. Practically speaking this assumption will probably still stand though, since there would likely be a non-trivial performance penalty to apply a configurable endianness instead of a fixed one the compiler can optomize/remove.

2019-10-12arch,base: Separate the idea of a memory image and object file.Gabe Black
A memory image can be described by an object file, but an object file is more than a memory image. Also, it makes sense to manipulate a memory image to, for instance, change how it's loaded into memory. That takes on larger implications (relocations, the entry point, symbols, etc.) when talking about the whole object file, and also modifies aspects which may not need to change. For instance if an image needs to be loaded into memory at addresses different from what's in the object file, but other things like symbols need to stay unmodified.

2019-10-10arch,base: Stop loading the interpreter in ElfObject.Gabe Black
The interpreter is a separate object file, and while it's convenient to hide loading it in the code which loads the main object file, it breaks the conceptual abstraction since you only asked it to load the main object file. Also, this makes every object file format reimplement the idea of loading the interpreter. Admittedly only ELF recognizes and sets up an interpreter, but other formats conceptually could too. This does move that limitted hypothetical redundancy out of the object file formats and moves it into the process objects, but I think conceptually that's where it belongs. It would also probably be pretty easy to add a method to the base Process class that would handle loading an image and also the interpreter image. This change does not (yet) separate reading symbol tables.

2019-10-10arch, base: Stop assuming object files have three segments.Gabe Black
The ObjectFile class has hardcoded assumptions that there are three segments, text, bss and data. There are some files which have one "segment" like raw files, where the entire file's contents are considered a single segment. There are also ELF files which can have an arbitrary number of segments, and those segments can hold any number of sections, including the text, data and/or bss sections. Removing this assumption frees up some object file formats from having to twist themselves to fit in that structure, possibly introducing ambiguities when some segments may fulfill multiple roles.

ELF is, in my opinion, the most important object file format gem5 currently understands, and in ELF terminolgy the blob of data that needs to be loaded into memory to a particular location is called a segment. A section is a software level view of what's in a region of memory, and a single segment may contain multiple sections which happen to follow each other in memory.

2019-05-29sim-se: add a release parameter to Process.pyCiro Santilli
Set the default release to that single value for all ISAs. glibc has checks for the kernel version based on uname, and refuses to start any syscall emulation programs if those checks don't pass with error: FATAL: kernel too old The ideal solution to this problem is to actually implement all missing system calls for the required kernel version and bumping the release accordingly. However, it is very hard to implement all missing syscalls and verify compliance. Previously, we have simply bumped the version manually from time to time when major glibc versions started breaking. This commit alleviates the problem in two ways. Firstly, having a single kernel version for all versions means that it is easier to bump all versions at once. Secondly, it makes it is possible to set the release with a parameter, which in turn can be set from the command line with: se.py --param 'system.cpu[:].workload[:].release = "4.18.0"' Change-Id: I9e3c31073bfe68735f7b0775c8e299aa62b98222 Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/17849 Maintainer: Brandon Potter <Brandon.Potter@amd.com> Reviewed-by: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com> Tested-by: kokoro <noreply+kokoro@google.com>

The system calls had four parameters. One of the parameters is ThreadContext and another is Process. The ThreadContext holds the value of the current process so the Process parameter is redundant since the system call functions already have indirect access. With the old API, it is possible to call into the functions with the wrong supplied Process which could end up being a confusing error. This patch removes the redundancy by forcing access through the ThreadContext field within each system call.

2019-04-28arch, sim: Simplify the AuxVector type.Gabe Black
The AuxVector type has a bunch of accessors which just give access to the underlying variables through references. We might as well just make those members accessible directly. Also, the AuxVector doesn't need to handle endianness flips itself. We can tell the byteswap mechanism how to flip an AuxVector, and let it handle that for us. This gets rid of the entire .cc file which was complicated by trying to both hide the ISA specific endianness translations, and instantiate templated functions in a .cc.

2019-04-28mem: Remove the ISA specialized versions of port proxy's read/write.Gabe Black
These selected their behavior based on ifdefs and had to be disabled when on the NULL ISA. The versions which take an explicit endianness have been renamed to just read/write instead of readGtoH and writeHtoG since the direction of the translation is obvious from context.

As a side-effect, this makes these files consistent with configuration files.
