2016-08-02arm: refactor page table walkingCurtis Dunham
Introduce and use a lookup table. Using fetchDescriptor() rather than DMA cleanly handles nested paging. Change-Id: I69ec762f176bd752ba1040890e731826b58d15a6
2016-08-02arm: Fix stage 2 memory attribute checking in AArch64Dylan Johnson
Change-Id: I14c93a5460550051a12129e792a9a9bd522a145c
2016-08-02arm: Fix stage 2 determination in table walkerDylan Johnson
We recompute if we are doing a stage 2 walk inside of the table walker but we have already figured it out in the tlb. Pass the information in to the walk instead of recomputing it. Change-Id: I39637ce99309b2ddbc30344d45ac9ebf6a203401
2016-03-21arm: Refactor the TLB test interfaceAndreas Sandberg
Refactor the TLB and page table walker test interface to use a dynamic registration mechanism. Instead of patching a couple of empty methods to wire up a TLB tester, this change allows such testers to register themselves using the setTestInterface() method.
2015-10-12misc: Add explicit overrides and fix other clang >= 3.5 issuesAndreas Hansson
This patch adds explicit overrides as this is now required when using "-Wall" with clang >= 3.5, the latter now part of the most recent XCode. The patch consequently removes "virtual" for those methods where "override" is added. The latter should be enough of an indication. As part of this patch, a few minor issues that clang >= 3.5 complains about are also resolved (unused methods and variables).
2015-10-12misc: Remove redundant compiler-specific definesAndreas Hansson
This patch moves away from using M5_ATTR_OVERRIDE and the m5::hashmap (and similar) abstractions, as these are no longer needed with gcc 4.7 and clang 3.1 as minimum compiler versions.
2015-07-07sim: Refactor and simplify the drain APIAndreas Sandberg
The drain() call currently passes around a DrainManager pointer, which is now completely pointless since there is only ever one global DrainManager in the system. It also contains vestiges from the time when SimObjects had to keep track of their child objects that needed draining. This changeset moves all of the DrainState handling to the Drainable base class and changes the drain() and drainResume() calls to reflect this. Particularly, the drain() call has been updated to take no parameters (the DrainManager argument isn't needed) and return a DrainState instead of an unsigned integer (there is no point returning anything other than 0 or 1 any more). Drainable objects should return either DrainState::Draining (equivalent to returning 1 in the old system) if they need more time to drain or DrainState::Drained (equivalent to returning 0 in the old system) if they are already in a consistent state. Returning DrainState::Running is considered an error. Drain done signalling is now done through the signalDrainDone() method in the Drainable class instead of using the DrainManager directly. The new call checks if the state of the object is DrainState::Draining before notifying the drain manager. This means that it is safe to call signalDrainDone() without first checking if the simulator has requested draining. The intention here is to reduce the code needed to implement draining in simple objects.
2015-06-21arm: Cleanup arch headers to remove dma_device.hh dependencyAndreas Sandberg
Break the dependency on dma_device.hh by forward-declaring DmaPort in the relevant header.
2015-03-02arm: Share a port for the two table walker objectsAndreas Hansson
This patch changes how the MMU and table walkers are created such that a single port is used to connect the MMU and the TLBs to the memory system. Previously two ports were needed as there are two table walker objects (stage one and stage two), and they both had a port. Now the port itself is moved to the Stage2MMU, and each TableWalker is simply using the port from the parent. By using the same port we also remove the need for having an additional crossbar joining the two ports before the walker cache or the L2. This simplifies the creation of the CPU cache topology in BaseCPU.py considerably. Moreover, for naming and symmetry reasons, the TLB walker port is connected through the stage-one table walker thus making the naming identical to x86. Along the same line, we use the stage-one table walker to generate the master id that is used by all TLB-related requests.
2014-12-23arm: Add stats to table walkerCurtis Dunham
This patch adds table walker stats for: - Walk events - Instruction vs Data - Page size histogram - Wait time and service time histograms - Pending requests histogram (per cycle) - measures dist. of L (p(1..) = how often busy, p(0) = how often idle) - Squashes, before starting and after completion
2014-11-14arm: Fixes based on UBSan and static analysisAndreas Hansson
Another churn to clean up undefined behaviour, mostly ARM, but some parts also touching the generic part of the code base. Most of the fixes are simply ensuring that proper intialisation. One of the more subtle changes is the return type of the sign-extension, which is changed to uint64_t. This is to avoid shifting negative values (undefined behaviour) in the ISA code.
2014-10-16arch: Use shared_ptr for all FaultsAndreas Hansson
This patch takes quite a large step in transitioning from the ad-hoc RefCountingPtr to the c++11 shared_ptr by adopting its use for all Faults. There are no changes in behaviour, and the code modifications are mostly just replacing "new" with "make_shared".
2014-05-27arm: support 16kb vm granulesCurtis Dunham
2014-01-24arm: Add support for ARMv8 (AArch64 & AArch32)ARM gem5 Developers
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.

2012-11-02sim: Move the draining interface into a separate base classAndreas Sandberg
This patch moves the draining interface from SimObject to a separate class that can be used by any object needing draining. However, objects not visible to the Python code (i.e., objects not deriving from SimObject) still depend on their parents informing them when to drain. This patch also gets rid of the CountedDrainEvent (which isn't really an event) and replaces it with a DrainManager.
2012-10-15Port: Add protocol-agnostic ports in the port hierarchyAndreas Hansson
This patch adds an additional level of ports in the inheritance hierarchy, separating out the protocol-specific and protocl-agnostic parts. All the functionality related to the binding of ports is now confined to use BaseMaster/BaseSlavePorts, and all the protocol-specific parts stay in the Master/SlavePort. In the future it will be possible to add other protocol-specific implementations. The functions used in the binding of ports, i.e. getMaster/SlavePort now use the base classes, and the index parameter is updated to use the PortID typedef with the symbolic InvalidPortID as the default.
2012-09-25ARM: Squash outstanding walks when instructions are squashed.Ali Saidi
2012-08-22Packet: Remove NACKs from packet and its use in endpointsAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the NACK frrom the packet as there is no longer any module in the system that issues them (the bridge was the only one and the previous patch removes that). The handling of NACKs was mostly avoided throughout the code base, by using e.g. panic or assert false, but in a few locations the NACKs were actually dealt with (although NACKs never occured in any of the regressions). Most notably, the DMA port will now never receive a NACK and the backoff time is thus never changed. As a consequence, the entire backoff mechanism (similar to a PCI bus) is now removed and the DMA port entirely relies on the bus performing the arbitration and issuing a retry when appropriate. This is more in line with e.g. PCIe. Surprisingly, this patch has no impact on any of the regressions. As mentioned in the patch that removes the NACK from the bridge, a follow-up patch should change the request and response buffer size for at least one regression to also verify that the system behaves as expected when the bridge fills up.
2012-08-15O3,ARM: fix some problems with drain/switchout functionality and add Drain ↵Anthony Gutierrez
DPRINTFs This patch fixes some problems with the drain/switchout functionality for the O3 cpu and for the ARM ISA and adds some useful debug print statements. This is an incremental fix as there are still a few bugs/mem leaks with the switchout code. Particularly when switching from an O3CPU to a TimingSimpleCPU. However, when switching from O3 to O3 cores with the ARM ISA I haven't encountered any more assertion failures; now the kernel will typically panic inside of simulation.
2012-05-23DMA: Split the DMA device and IO device into seperate filesAndreas Hansson
This patch moves the DMA device to its own set of files, splitting it from the IO device. There are no behavioural changes associated with this patch. The patch also grabs the opportunity to do some very minor tidying up, including some white space removal and pruning some redundant parameters. Besides the immediate benefits of the separation-of-concerns, this patch also makes upcoming changes more streamlined as it split the devices that are only slaves and the DMA device that also acts as a master. --HG-- rename : src/dev/io_device.cc => src/dev/dma_device.cc rename : src/dev/io_device.hh => src/dev/dma_device.hh
2012-05-23MEM: Add a snooping DMA port subclass for table walkerAndreas Hansson
This patch makes the (device) DmaPort non-snooping and removes the recvSnoop constructor parameter and instead introduces a SnoopingDmaPort subclass for the ARM table walker. Functionality is unchanged, as are the stats, and the patch merely clarifies that the normal DMA ports are not snooping (although they may issue requests that are snooped by others, as done with PCI, PCIe, AMBA4 ACE etc). Currently this port is declared in the ARM table walker as it is not used anywhere else. If other ports were to have similar behaviour it could be moved in a future patch.
2012-03-30MEM: Introduce the master/slave port sub-classes in C++William Wang
This patch introduces the notion of a master and slave port in the C++ code, thus bringing the previous classification from the Python classes into the corresponding simulation objects and memory objects. The patch enables us to classify behaviours into the two bins and add assumptions and enfore compliance, also simplifying the two interfaces. As a starting point, isSnooping is confined to a master port, and getAddrRanges to slave ports. More of these specilisations are to come in later patches. The getPort function is not getMasterPort and getSlavePort, and returns a port reference rather than a pointer as NULL would never be a valid return value. The default implementation of these two functions is placed in MemObject, and calls fatal. The one drawback with this specific patch is that it requires some code duplication, e.g. QueuedPort becomes QueuedMasterPort and QueuedSlavePort, and BusPort becomes BusMasterPort and BusSlavePort (avoiding multiple inheritance). With the later introduction of the port interfaces, moving the functionality outside the port itself, a lot of the duplicated code will disappear again.
2012-03-19gcc: Clean-up of non-C++0x compliant code, first stepsAndreas Hansson
This patch cleans up a number of minor issues aiming to get closer to compliance with the C++0x standard as interpreted by gcc and clang (compile with std=c++0x and -pedantic-errors). In particular, the patch cleans up enums where the last item was succeded by a comma, namespaces closed by a curcly brace followed by a semi-colon, and the use of the GNU-extension typeof (replaced by templated functions). It does not address variable-length arrays, zero-size arrays, anonymous structs, range expressions in switch statements, and the use of long long. The generated CPU code also has a large number of issues that remain to be fixed, mainly related to overflows in implicit constant conversion (due to shifts).
2012-02-24MEM: Move port creation to the memory object(s) constructionAndreas Hansson
This patch moves all port creation from the getPort method to be consistently done in the MemObject's constructor. This is possible thanks to the Swig interface passing the length of the vector ports. Previously there was a mix of: 1) creating the ports as members (at object construction time) and using getPort for the name resolution, or 2) dynamically creating the ports in the getPort call. This is now uniform. Furthermore, objects that would not be complete without a port have these ports as members rather than having pointers to dynamically allocated ports. This patch also enables an elaboration-time enumeration of all the ports in the system which can be used to determine the masterId.
2012-02-12mem: Add a master ID to each request object.Ali Saidi
This change adds a master id to each request object which can be used identify every device in the system that is capable of issuing a request. This is part of the way to removing the numCpus+1 stats in the cache and replacing them with the master ids. This is one of a series of changes that make way for the stats output to be changed to python.
2012-01-31CheckerCPU: Re-factor CheckerCPU to be compatible with current gem5Geoffrey Blake
Brings the CheckerCPU back to life to allow FS and SE checking of the O3CPU. These changes have only been tested with the ARM ISA. Other ISAs potentially require modification.

2010-11-08ARM: Don't return the result of a table walk the same cycle it's completed.Ali Saidi
The L1 cache may have been accessed to provide this data, which confuses it, if it ends up being accesses twice in one cycle. Instead wait 1 tick which will force the timing simple CPU to forward to its next clock cycle when the translation completes. Also prevent multiple outstanding table walks from occuring at once.

2010-09-13Faults: Pass the StaticInst involved, if any, to a Fault's invoke method.Gabe Black
Also move the "Fault" reference counted pointer type into a separate file, sim/fault.hh. It would be better to name this less similarly to sim/faults.hh to reduce confusion, but fault.hh matches the name of the type. We could change Fault to FaultPtr to match other pointer types, and then changing the name of the file would make more sense.
