A System object has a _numContexts member variable which represent the
number of ThreadContext registered in the System. Since this has to
match the size of the ThreadContext vector, this patch removes the
manually cached size. This was usually used as a for-loop index, whereas
we want to enforce the use of range-based loops whenever possible.

The MuxingKvmGic class defined a few functions related to checkpointing which
did nothing other than call the underlying Pl390 implementation. These are
unnecessary in general, and are particularly unnecessary for the loadState
function which is a very lightly used part of the checkpointing interface.
It's not actually defined in Pl390 either, and falls through to the
underlying implementation.

ISA devices typically run in the device event queue. Previously, we
assumed that devices would perform their own EQ migrations as
needed. This isn't ideal since it means we have different conventions
for IO devices and ISA devices. Switch to doing migrations in the KVM
CPU instead to make the behavior consistent.

If an interrupt was pending according to Kvm state during a drain,
the Pl390 model would create an interrupt event that could not be
serviced, preventing the system from draining. The proper behavior
is for the Pl390 not actively being used for simulation to just skip
the GIC state machine that delivers interrupts.

The BaseArmKvmCPU is responsible for forwarding the IRQ and FIQ
signals from gem5's simulated GIC to KVM. However, these signals
shouldn't be used when the in-kernel GIC emulator is used.
Instead of delivering the interrupts to the guest, we should just
ignore them since any such pending interrupts are likely to be an
artifact of CPU switching or incorrect draining.

The ARM MiscRegs implementation has two interfaces: 'normal'
and 'no effect'. The latter acts as a way to access the
backing store without architectural 'effects'. For instance,
a normal write to a timer compare value would call into the
timer model to emulate the device. The 'no effect' interface,
however, would just write the value into the register backing
store and do nothing else.
For Kvm execution, a delicate balance must be struck for the
timer device specifically. We need the code in the model
to be run, because it contains state other than the register
backing store that must stay in sync. On the other hand, we
don't necessarily want the timer model to schedule gem5
events when this happens.
In this commit, we ensure that we use the 'effectful'
MiscReg interface when copying the CP15 timer registers
from Kvm back into gem5. The prior commit makes sure
that this doesn't generate unnecessary timer events
or interrupts.

The check was nearly completely generic anyway,
with the exception of the Kvm CPU type.
This will make it easier for other parts of the
codebase to do similar checks.

The state transfer code wasn't reading back PSTATE correctly from the
CPU prior to updating the thread context and was incorreclty writing
the register as a 32-bit value when updating KVM. Correctly read back
the state before updating gem5's view of PSTATE and cast the value to
a uint64_t.

The kernel and gem5 derive MPIDR values from CPU IDs in slightly
different ways. This means that guests running in a multi-CPU setup
sometimes fail to bring up secondary CPUs. Fix this by overriding the
MPIDR value in virtual CPUs just after they have been instantiated.

KvmGic functionality has been subsumed within the new MuxingKvmGic
model, which has Pl390 fallback when not using KVM for fast emulation.
This simplifies configuration and will enable checkpointing between
KVM emulation and full-system simulation.

A KVM VM is typically a child of the System object already, but for
solving future issues with configuration graph resolution, the most
logical way to keep track of this object is for it to be an actual

This patch moves away from using M5_ATTR_OVERRIDE and the m5::hashmap

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 adds support for aarch64 in kvm. The CPU module
supports both checkpointing and online CPU model switching as long as
no devices are simulated by the host kernel. It currently has the
following limitations:
* The system register based generic timer can only be simulated by
the host kernel. Workaround: Use a memory mapped timer instead to
simulate the timer in gem5.
* Simulating devices (e.g., the generic timer) in the host kernel
requires that the host kernel also simulates the GIC.
* ID registers in the host and in gem5 must match for switching
between simulated CPUs and KVM. This is particularly important
for ID registers describing memory system capabilities (e.g.,
ASID size, physical address size).
* Switching between a virtualized CPU and a simulated CPU is
currently not supported if in-kernel device emulation is
used. This could be worked around by adding support for switching
to the gem5 (e.g., the KvmGic) side of the device models. A
simpler workaround is to avoid in-kernel device models
altogether.

This changeset adds a GIC implementation that uses the kernel's
built-in support for simulating the interrupt controller. Since there
is currently no support for state transfer between gem5 and the
kernel, the device model does not support serialization and CPU
switching (which would require switching to a gem5-simulated GIC).
|

This changeset moves the ARM-specific KVM CPU implementation to
arch/arm/kvm/. This change is expected to keep the source tree
somewhat cleaner as we start adding support for ARMv8 and KVM
in-kernel interrupt controller simulation.
