2012-03-09System: Move code in initState() back into constructor whenever possible.Ali Saidi
The change to port proxies recently moved code out of the constructor into initState(). This is needed for code that loads data into memory, however for code that setups symbol tables, kernel based events, etc this is the wrong thing to do as that code is only called when a checkpoint isn't being restored from.
2012-03-01ARM: move kernel func event to correct location.Dam Sunwoo
With the recent series of patches, the symbol table loading moved from "construct" time to "init" time, but the kernel function event callback registration was left behind. This patch moves it to the proper location.
2012-02-24MEM: Make port proxies use references rather than pointersAndreas Hansson
This patch is adding a clearer design intent to all objects that would not be complete without a port proxy by making the proxies members rathen than dynamically allocated. In essence, if NULL would not be a valid value for the proxy, then we avoid using a pointer to make this clear. The same approach is used for the methods using these proxies, such as loadSections, that now use references rather than pointers to better reflect the fact that NULL would not be an acceptable value (in fact the code would break and that is how this patch started out). Overall the concept of "using a reference to express unconditional composition where a NULL pointer is never valid" could be done on a much broader scale throughout the code base, but for now it is only done in the locations affected by the proxies.
2012-01-17MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural portsAndreas Hansson
Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data port in a port proxy. The following replacements are made: FunctionalPort > PortProxy TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy --HG-- rename : src/mem/vport.cc => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/vport.hh => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.hh rename : src/mem/translating_port.cc => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/translating_port.hh => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.hh
2011-05-13ARM: Better RealView/Versatile EB platform support.Chander Sudanthi
Add registers and components to better support the VersatileEB board. Made the MIDR and SYS_ID register parameters to ArmSystem and RealviewCtrl respectively.
2011-05-04ARM: Add support for loading the a bootloader and configuring parameters for itAli Saidi
2011-04-15includes: sort all includesNathan Binkert
2010-11-08sim: Use forward declarations for ports.Ali Saidi
Virtual ports need TLB data which means anything touching a file in the arch directory rebuilds any file that includes system.hh which in everything.
2010-08-25ARM: Limited implementation of dprintk.Ali Saidi
Does not work with vfp arguments or arguments passed on the stack.
