Neon memory ops that operate on multiple registers currently have very poor
performance because of interleave/deinterleave micro-ops.
This patch marks the deinterleave/interleave micro-ops as "No_OpClass" such
that they take minumum cycles to execute and are never resource constrained.
Additionaly the micro-ops over-read registers. Although one form may need
to read up to 20 sources, not all do. This adds in new forms so false
dependencies are not modeled. Instructions read their minimum number of
sources.

Mark branch flags onto macroops to allow branch prediction before
microop decomposition
|
|
The MicroMemOp class generates the disassembly for both integer
and floating point instructions, but it would always print its
first operand as an integer register without considering that the
op may be a floating instruction in which case a float register
should be displayed instead.

Note: AArch64 and AArch32 interworking is not supported. If you use an AArch64
kernel you are restricted to AArch64 user-mode binaries. This will be addressed
in a later patch.
Note: Virtualization is only supported in AArch32 mode. This will also be fixed
in a later patch.

This patch adds a missing flag to the ldr_ret_uop microop instruction.
The flag is added when the instruction is used, not directly in the
constructor of the instruction.

This is to avoid collision with non-generated files.

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.

If the instruction faults mid-op the base register shouldn't be written back.

This changes the RFE macroop into 3 microops:
URa = [sp]; URb = [sp+4]; // load CPSR,PC values from stack
sp = sp + offset; // optionally auto-increment
PC = URa; CPSR = URb; // write to the PC and CPSR.
Importantly:
- writing to PC is handled in the last micro-op.
- loading occurs prior to state changes.

This can abort simulations when the fetch unit runs ahead and speculatively
decodes instructions that are off the execution path.
|
|
Allow some loads that update the base register to use just two micro-ops. three
micro-ops are only used if the destination register matches the offset register
or the PC is the destination regsiter. If the PC is updated it needs to be
the last micro-op otherwise O3 will mispredict.

When decrementing, the higher addressed half of a double word is at a 4 byte
smaller displacement.

Do this by setting the delayed commit flag for all but the last microop.

There were four bugs in these instructions. First, the loaded value was being
stored into a floating point register as floating point, changing the value as
it was transfered. Second, the meaning of the "up" bit had been reversed.
Third, the statically sized microop array wasn't bit enough for all possible
inputs. It's now dynamically sized and should always be big enough. Fourth,
the offset was stored as an unsigned 8 bit value. Negative offsets would look
like moderately large positive offsets.

This change moves the writeback of load multiple instructions to the beginning
of the macroop. That way, the MicroLdrRetUop that changes the mode will
necessarily happen later, ensuring the writeback happens in the original mode.
The actual value in the base register if it also shows up in the register list
is undefined, so it's fine if it gets clobbered by one of the loads. For
stores where the base register is the lowest numbered in the register list,
the original value should be written back. That means stores can't write back
at the beginning, but the mode changing problem doesn't affect them so they
can continue to write back at the end.

This code doesn't use the parser at all, and moving it out reduces the
conceptual complexity of that code.
