2010-03-23cpu: fix exec tracing memory corruption bugSteve Reinhardt
Accessing traceData (to call setAddress() and/or setData()) after initiating a timing translation was causing crashes, since a failed translation could delete the traceData object before returning. It turns out that there was never a need to access traceData after initiating the translation, as the traced data was always available earlier; this ordering was merely historical. Furthermore, traceData->setAddress() and traceData->setData() were being called both from the CPU model and the ISA definition, often redundantly. This patch standardizes all setAddress and setData calls for memory instructions to be in the CPU models and not in the ISA definition. It also moves those calls above the translation calls to eliminate the crashes.
2010-02-12O3PCU: Split loads and stores that cross cache line boundaries.Timothy M. Jones
When each load or store is sent to the LSQ, we check whether it will cross a cache line boundary and, if so, split it in two. This creates two TLB translations and two memory requests. Care has to be taken if the first packet of a split load is sent but the second blocks the cache. Similarly, for a store, if the first packet cannot be sent, we must store the second one somewhere to retry later. This modifies the LSQSenderState class to record both packets in a split load or store. Finally, a new const variable, HasUnalignedMemAcc, is added to each ISA to indicate whether unaligned memory accesses are allowed. This is used throughout the changed code so that compiler can optimise away code dealing with split requests for ISAs that don't need them.

2009-12-31MIPS: Implement the set_thread_area system call.Gabe Black
2009-12-31MIPS: Create an artificial control register to hold the thread pointer.Gabe Black
In Linux, the set_thread_area system call stores the address of the thread local storage area into a field of the current thread_info structure. Later, to access that value, the program uses the rdhwr instruction to read a "hardware register" with index 29. The 64 bit MIPS manual, volume II, says that index 29 is reserved for a future ABI extension and should cause a "Reserved Instruction Exception". In Linux (and potentially other ISAs) that exception is trapped and emulated to return the value stored by set_thread_area as if that were actually stored by a physical register. The tp_value address (as named in the Linux kernel) is ironically stored as a control register so that it goes with a particular ThreadContext. Syscall emulation will use that to emulate storing to the OS's thread info structure, and rdhwr will emulate faulting and returning that value from software by returning the value itself, as if it was in hardware. In other words, we fake faking the register in SE mode. In an FS mode implementation it should work as specified in the manual.
2009-12-31MIPS: Extract CPU pointer from the thread context in scheduleCP0 setMiscReg.Gabe Black
The MIPS ISA object expects to be constructed with a CPU pointer it uses to look at other thread contexts and allow them to be manipulated with control registers. Unfortunately, that differs from all the other ISA classes and would complicate their implementation. This change makes the event constructor use a CPU pointer pulled out of the thread context passed to setMiscReg instead.
2009-12-21MIPS: Add missing syscall slots.Gabe Black
These are all after the existing ones, suggesting they were added after the original list was created.

2009-10-30Syscalls: Make system calls access arguments like a stack, not an array.Gabe Black
When accessing arguments for a syscall, the position of an argument depends on the policies of the ISA, how much space preceding arguments took up, and the "alignment" of the index for this particular argument into the number of possible storate locations. This change adjusts getSyscallArg to take its index parameter by reference instead of value and to adjust it to point to the possible location of the next argument on the stack, basically just after the current one. This way, the rules for the new argument can be applied locally without knowing about other arguments since those have already been taken into account implicitly. All system calls have also been changed to reflect the new interface. In a number of cases this made the implementation clearer since it encourages arguments to be collected in one place in order and then used as necessary later, as opposed to scattering them throughout the function or using them in place in long expressions. It also discourages using getSyscallArg over and over to retrieve the same value when a temporary would do the job.

2009-05-13inorder-mips: Remove eaComp & memAcc; use 'visible' eaCompKorey Sewell
Inorder expects eaComp to be visible through StaticInst object. This mirrors a similar change to ALPHA... Needs to be done for SPARC and whatever other ISAs want to use InOrderCPU

2009-05-12inorder-alpha-port: initial inorder support of ALPHAKorey Sewell
Edit AlphaISA to support the inorder model. Mostly alternate constructor functions and also a few skeleton multithreaded support functions * * * Remove namespace from header file. Causes compiler issues that are hard to find * * * Separate the TLB from the CPU and allow it to live in the TLBUnit resource. Give CPU accessor functions for access and also bind at construction time * * * Expose memory access size and flags through instruction object (temporarily memAccSize and memFlags to get TLB stuff working.)

2009-04-18mips-tlb-fix: check for alignment faults.\nMIPS was never updated to use ↵Korey Sewell
TLBS correcty in SE mode. The error was forwarding translations directly to pageTable. The TLB should check for alignment faults at bare minimum here but in the long run we should be using TLBs in SE mode for MIPS.
2009-04-18mips-syscall: mark with correct flag. \nMIPS was using wrong serialization ↵Korey Sewell
flag on syscall instructions allowing O3 to handle SE mode syscalls incorrectly and speculate on instructions after a syscall
