A new identifier has been introduced: NUM_PHYS_MISCREGS, which is used
as a boundary for the number of physical (real) Misc registers in the
system. Pseudo registers (like CP15_UNIMPL) have been moved after the
NUM_PHYS_MISCREGS identifier, so that their enum number is
(NUM_PHYS_MISCREGS < number < NUM_MISCREGS). Moving away those
registers has created some free slots that can be used for future Misc
register implementation.
SERIALIZE and UNSERIALIZE now only save/restore PHYSICAL Misc Registers.
This allows us to define as many pseudo registers as we want without
being concerned about checkpoint compatibility.

Move massive initialization routine to the bottom of miscregs.cc.
Additionally, share register metadata across ISA instances by
making lookUpMiscReg a static member of the ISA and only
initializing it once.

This patch adds some more functionality to the cpu model and the arch to
interface with the vector register file.
This change consists mainly of augmenting ThreadContexts and ExecContexts
with calls to get/set full vectors, underlying microarchitectural elements
or lanes. Those are meant to interface with the vector register file. All
classes that implement this interface also get an appropriate implementation.
This requires implementing the vector register file for the different
models using the VecRegContainer class.
This change set also updates the Result abstraction to contemplate the
possibility of having a vector as result.
The changes also affect how the remote_gdb connection works.
There are some (nasty) side effects, such as the need to define dummy
numPhysVecRegs parameter values for architectures that do not implement
vector extensions.
Nathanael Premillieu's work with an increasing number of fixes and
improvements of mine.

With the hierarchical RegId there are a lot of functions that are
redundant now.
The idea behind the simplification is that instead of having the regId,
telling which kind of register read/write/rename/lookup/etc. and then
the function panic_if'ing if the regId is not of the appropriate type,
we provide an interface that decides what kind of register to read
depending on the register type of the given regId.

The decoder is responsible for splitting instructions in micro
operations (uops). Given that different micro architectures may split
operations differently, this patch allows to specify which micro
architecture each isa implements, so different cores in the system can
split instructions differently, also decoupling uop splitting
(microArch) from ISA (Arch). This is done making the decodification
calls templates that receive a type 'DecoderFlavour' that maps the
name of the operation to the class that implements it. This way there
is only one selection point (converting the command line enum to the
appropriate DecodeFeatures object). In addition, there is no explicit
code replication: template instantiation hides that, and the compiler
should be able to resolve a number of things at compile-time.

This adds a vector register type. The type is defined as a std::array of a
fixed number of uint64_ts. The isa_parser.py has been modified to parse vector
register operands and generate the required code. Different cpus have vector
register files now.

Objects that are can be serialized are supposed to inherit from the
Serializable class. This class is meant to provide a unified API for
such objects. However, so far it has mainly been used by SimObjects
due to some fundamental design limitations. This changeset redesigns
to the serialization interface to make it more generic and hide the
underlying checkpoint storage. Specifically:
* Add a set of APIs to serialize into a subsection of the current
object. Previously, objects that needed this functionality would
use ad-hoc solutions using nameOut() and section name
generation. In the new world, an object that implements the
interface has the methods serializeSection() and
unserializeSection() that serialize into a named /subsection/ of
the current object. Calling serialize() serializes an object into
the current section.
* Move the name() method from Serializable to SimObject as it is no
longer needed for serialization. The fully qualified section name
is generated by the main serialization code on the fly as objects
serialize sub-objects.
* Add a scoped ScopedCheckpointSection helper class. Some objects
need to serialize data structures, that are not deriving from
Serializable, into subsections. Previously, this was done using
nameOut() and manual section name generation. To simplify this,
this changeset introduces a ScopedCheckpointSection() helper
class. When this class is instantiated, it adds a new /subsection/
and subsequent serialization calls during the lifetime of this
helper class happen inside this section (or a subsection in case
of nested sections).
* The serialize() call is now const which prevents accidental state
manipulation during serialization. Objects that rely on modifying
state can use the serializeOld() call instead. The default
implementation simply calls serialize(). Note: The old-style calls
need to be explicitly called using the
serializeOld()/serializeSectionOld() style APIs. These are used by
default when serializing SimObjects.
* Both the input and output checkpoints now use their own named
types. This hides underlying checkpoint implementation from
objects that need checkpointing and makes it easier to change the
underlying checkpoint storage code.

This changeset cleans up the generic timer a bit and moves most of the
register juggling from the ISA code into a separate class in the same
source file as the rest of the generic timer. It also removes the
assumption that there is always 8 or fewer CPUs in the system. Instead
of having a fixed limit, we now instantiate per-core timers as they
are requested. This is all in preparation for other patches that add
support for virtual timers and a memory mapped interface.
|
|
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.

The ISA code sometimes stores 16-bit ASIDs as 8-bit unsigned integers
and has a couple of inverted checks that mask out the high 8 bits of
an ASID if 16-bit ASIDs have been /enabled/. This changeset fixes both
of those issues.

Automatically extract cpu release address from DTB file.
Check SCTLR_EL1 to verify all caches are enabled.

This class implements a subset of the ARM PMU v3 specification as
described in the ARMv8 reference manual. It supports most of the
features of the PMU, however the following features are known to be
missing:
* Event filtering (e.g., from different privilege levels).
* Access controls (the PMU currently ignores the execution level).
* The chain counter (event no. 0x1E) is unimplemented.
The PMU itself does not implement any events, it merely provides an
interface for the configuration scripts to hook up probes that drive
events. Configuration scripts should call addEventProbe() to configure
custom events or high-level methods to configure architected
events. The Python implementation of addEventProbe() automatically
delays event type registration until after instantiation.
In order to support CPU switching and some combined counters (e.g.,
memory references synthesized from loads and stores), the PMU allows
multiple probes per event type. When creating a system that switches
between CPU models that share the same PMU, PMU events for all of the
CPU models can be registered with the PMU.
Kudos to Matt Horsnell for the initial gem5 implementation of the PMU.

Analogous to ee049bf (for x86). Requires a bump of the checkpoint version
and corresponding upgrader code to move the condition code register values
to the new register file.

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 makes all the register index flattening methods const for
all the ISAs. As part of this, readMiscRegNoEffect for ARM is also
made const.

Add a third register class for condition codes,
in parallel with the integer and FP classes.
No ISAs use the CC class at this point though.

Fix the ISA startup warnings
|
|
The changes made by the changeset 9376 were not quite correct. The patch made
changes to the code which resulted in decoder not getting initialized correctly
when the state was restored from a checkpoint.
This patch adds a startup function to each ISA object. For x86, this function
sets the required state in the decoder. For other ISAs, the function is empty
right now.

After making the ISA an independent SimObject, it is serialized
automatically by the Python world. Previously, this just resulted in
an empty ISA section. This patch moves the contents of the ISA to that
section and removes the explicit ISA serialization from the thread
contexts, which makes it behave like a normal SimObject during
serialization.
Note: This patch breaks checkpoint backwards compatibility! Use the
cpt_upgrader.py utility to upgrade old checkpoints to the new format.
|

The ISA class on stores the contents of ID registers on many
architectures. In order to make reset values of such registers
configurable, we make the class inherit from SimObject, which allows
us to use the normal generated parameter headers.
This patch introduces a Python helper method, BaseCPU.createThreads(),
which creates a set of ISAs for each of the threads in an SMT
system. Although it is currently only needed when creating
multi-threaded CPUs, it should always be called before instantiating
the system as this is an obvious place to configure ID registers
identifying a thread/CPU.

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

These registers provide information about the caches. Since we can't provide
that information, these will be harmlessly inert.
|
|
This register will always report 0 caches as implemented. It's not clear how
to find out how many there really are when dealing with an arbitrary
hierarchy.
|
|
This register controls access to the coprocessors. This doesn't actually
implement it, it allows writes which don't turn anything off. In other words,
it allows the simulated program to ask for what it already has.
