2016-11-09syscall_emul: [patch 5/22] remove LiveProcess class and use Process insteadBrandon Potter
The EIOProcess class was removed recently and it was the only other class which derived from Process. Since every Process invocation is also a LiveProcess invocation, it makes sense to simplify the organization by combining the fields from LiveProcess into Process.
2016-11-09syscall_emul: [patch 2/22] move SyscallDesc into its own .hh and .ccBrandon Potter
The class was crammed into syscall_emul.hh which has tons of forward declarations and template definitions. To clean it up a bit, moved the class into separate files and commented the class with doxygen style comments. Also, provided some encapsulation by adding some accessors and a mutator. The syscallreturn.hh file was renamed syscall_return.hh to make it consistent with other similarly named files in the src/sim directory. The DPRINTF_SYSCALL macro was moved into its own header file with the include the Base and Verbose flags as well. --HG-- rename : src/sim/syscallreturn.hh => src/sim/syscall_return.hh
2016-03-17base: add symbol support for dynamic librariesBrandon Potter
Libraries are loaded into the process address space using the mmap system call. Conveniently, this happens to be a good time to update the process symbol table with the library's incoming symbols so we handle the table update from within the system call. This works just like an application's normal symbols. The only difference between a dynamic library and a main executable is when the symbol table update occurs. The symbol table update for an executable happens at program load time and is finished before the process ever begins executing. Since dynamic linking happens at runtime, the symbol loading happens after the library is first loaded into the process address space. The library binary is examined at this time for a symbol section and that section is parsed for symbol types with specific bindings (global, local, weak). Subsequently, these symbols are added to the table and are available for use by gem5 for things like trace generation. Checkpointing should work just as it did previously. The address space (and therefore the library) will be recorded and the symbol table will be entirely recorded. (It's not possible to do anything clever like checkpoint a program and then load the program back with different libraries with LD_LIBRARY_PATH, because the library becomes part of the address space after being loaded.)
2016-03-17syscall_emul: extend mmap system call to support file backed mmapsBrandon Potter
For O3, which has a stat that counts reg reads, there is an additional reg read per mmap() call since there's an arg we no longer ignore. Otherwise, stats should not be affected.
2016-03-17syscall_emul: rename OpenFlagTransTable structBrandon Potter
The structure definition only had the open system call flag set in mind when it was named, so we rename it here with the intention of using it to define additional tables to translate flags for other system calls in the future.
2015-06-07arch: fix build under MacOSXRuslan Bukin ext:(%2C%20Zhang%20Guoye)
put O_DIRECT under ifdefs -- this fixes build for MacOSX. Also use correct class for arm64 openFlagTable. Committed by: Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>
2015-05-05arm: Remove unnecessary boot uncachabilityAndreas Hansson
With the recent patches addressing how we deal with uncacheable accesses there is no longer need for the work arounds put in place to enforce certain sections of memory to be uncacheable during boot.
2015-04-29arch, base, dev, kern, sym: FreeBSD supportRuslan Bukin
This adds support for FreeBSD/aarch64 FS and SE mode (basic set of syscalls only) Committed by: Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>
