2017-04-11riscv: Fix crashes with large or frequent mmapsAlec Roelke
This patch fixes a bug where increasing the mmap region too much causes it to run into already-allocated memory, which causes gem5 to fail an assertion. Previously, the stack was incorrectly set up such that the end of the mmap region and the top of the stack were the same address and both would grow downward. With this patch, the top of the stack has been separated from the end of mmap and moved up, and the mmap region now grows upward instead of downward. [Rebase to master branch and remove dependencies.] Change-Id: I7271ff478fff2994f918bc5003a6139b9ba6a520 Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/2680 Maintainer: Alec Roelke <ar4jc@virginia.edu> Reviewed-by: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com>
2017-04-05riscv: fix Linux problems with LR and SC opsAlec Roelke
Some of the functions in the Linux toolchain that allocate memory make use of paired LR and SC instructions, which didn't work properly for that toolchain. This patch fixes that so attempting to use those functions doesn't cause an endless loop of failed SC instructions.

2017-04-05riscv: fix compatibility with Linux toolchainAlec Roelke
Previously, RISC-V in gem5 only supported RISC-V's Newlib toolchain (riscv64-unknown-elf-*) due to incorrect assumptions made in the initial setup of the user stack in SE mode. This patch fixes that by referring to the RISC-V proxy kernel code (https://github.com/riscv/riscv-pk) and setting up the stack according to how it does it. Now binaries compiled using the Linux toolchain (riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-*) will run as well.

This patch adds support for debugging with remote GDB to RISC-V. Using GDB compiled with the RISC-V GNU toolchain, it is possible to pause and continue execution, view debugging information, etc. As with the rest of RISC-V, this does not support full-system mode.

2017-04-05riscv: fix error on memory op address overflowAlec Roelke
Previously, if a memory operation referenced an address that caused the data to wrap around to the beginning of the memory (such as -1 or 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF), an assert would fail during address translation and gem5 would crash. This patch fixes that by checking for such a case in RISC-V's TLB code and returning a fault from translateData if that would happen. Because RISC-V does support unaligned memory accesses, no checking is performed to make sure that an access doesn't cross a cache line.

2017-03-09syscall-emul: Rewrite system call exit codeBrandon Potter
The changeset does a major refactor on the exit, exit_group, and futex system calls regarding exit functionality. A FutexMap class and related structures are added into a new file. This increases code clarity by encapsulating the futex operations and the futex state into an object. Several exit conditions were added to allow the simulator to end processes under certain conditions. Also, the simulation only exits now when all processes have finished executing.

2017-02-27syscall_emul: [PATCH 15/22] add clone/execve for threading and multiprocess ↵Brandon Potter
simulations Modifies the clone system call and adds execve system call. Requires allowing processes to steal thread contexts from other processes in the same system object and the ability to detach pieces of process state (such as MemState) to allow dynamic sharing.
2015-07-20syscall_emul: [patch 13/22] add system call retry capabilityBrandon Potter
This changeset adds functionality that allows system calls to retry without affecting thread context state such as the program counter or register values for the associated thread context (when system calls return with a retry fault). This functionality is needed to solve problems with blocking system calls in multi-process or multi-threaded simulations where information is passed between processes/threads. Blocking system calls can cause deadlock because the simulator itself is single threaded. There is only a single thread servicing the event queue which can cause deadlock if the thread hits a blocking system call instruction. To illustrate the problem, consider two processes using the producer/consumer sharing model. The processes can use file descriptors and the read and write calls to pass information to one another. If the consumer calls the blocking read system call before the producer has produced anything, the call will block the event queue (while executing the system call instruction) and deadlock the simulation. The solution implemented in this changeset is to recognize that the system calls will block and then generate a special retry fault. The fault will be sent back up through the function call chain until it is exposed to the cpu model's pipeline where the fault becomes visible. The fault will trigger the cpu model to replay the instruction at a future tick where the call has a chance to succeed without actually going into a blocking state. In subsequent patches, we recognize that a syscall will block by calling a non-blocking poll (from inside the system call implementation) and checking for events. When events show up during the poll, it signifies that the call would not have blocked and the syscall is allowed to proceed (calling an underlying host system call if necessary). If no events are returned from the poll, we generate the fault and try the instruction for the thread context at a distant tick. Note that retrying every tick is not efficient. As an aside, the simulator has some multi-threading support for the event queue, but it is not used by default and needs work. Even if the event queue was completely multi-threaded, meaning that there is a hardware thread on the host servicing a single simulator thread contexts with a 1:1 mapping between them, it's still possible to run into deadlock due to the event queue barriers on quantum boundaries. The solution of replaying at a later tick is the simplest solution and solves the problem generally.
2016-11-09syscall_emul: [patch 8/22] refactor process classBrandon Potter
Moves aux_vector into its own .hh and .cc files just to get it out of the already crowded Process files. Arguably, it could stay there, but it's probably better just to move it and give it files. The changeset looks ugly around the Process header file, but the goal here is to move methods and members around so that they're not defined randomly throughout the entire header file. I expect this is likely one of the reasons why I several unused variables related to this class. So, the methods are declared first followed by members. I've tried to aggregate them together so that similar entries reside near one another. There are other changes coming to this code so this is by no means the final product.
2016-11-09syscall_emul: [patch 5/22] remove LiveProcess class and use Process insteadBrandon Potter
The EIOProcess class was removed recently and it was the only other class which derived from Process. Since every Process invocation is also a LiveProcess invocation, it makes sense to simplify the organization by combining the fields from LiveProcess into Process.
2017-01-27riscv: Fix crash when syscall argument reg index is too highAlec Roelke
By default, doSyscall gets the values of six registers to be used for system call arguments. RISC-V, by convention, only has four. Because RISC-V's implementation of these indices is as arrays of integers rather than as base indices plus offsets, trying to get the fifth argument register's value will cause a crash. This patch fixes that by returning 0 for any index higher than 3. Signed-off-by: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com>
2016-11-09style: [patch 3/22] reduce include dependencies in some headersBrandon Potter
Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward declarations could have been used rather than a full include.
2016-11-09syscall_emul: [patch 2/22] move SyscallDesc into its own .hh and .ccBrandon Potter
The class was crammed into syscall_emul.hh which has tons of forward declarations and template definitions. To clean it up a bit, moved the class into separate files and commented the class with doxygen style comments. Also, provided some encapsulation by adding some accessors and a mutator. The syscallreturn.hh file was renamed syscall_return.hh to make it consistent with other similarly named files in the src/sim directory. The DPRINTF_SYSCALL macro was moved into its own header file with the include the Base and Verbose flags as well. --HG-- rename : src/sim/syscallreturn.hh => src/sim/syscall_return.hh
2016-11-30riscv: [Patch 7/5] Corrected LRSC semanticsAlec Roelke
RISC-V makes use of load-reserved and store-conditional instructions to enable creation of lock-free concurrent data manipulation as well as ACQUIRE and RELEASE semantics for memory ordering of LR, SC, and AMO instructions (the latter of which do not follow LR/SC semantics). This patch is a correction to patch 4, which added these instructions to the implementation of RISC-V. It modifies locked_mem.hh and the implementations of lr.w, sc.w, lr.d, and sc.d to apply the proper gem5 flags and return the proper values. An important difference between gem5's LLSC semantics and RISC-V's LR/SC ones, beyond the name, is that gem5 uses 0 to indicate failure and 1 to indicate success, while RISC-V is the opposite. Strictly speaking, RISC-V uses 0 to indicate success and nonzero to indicate failure where the value would indicate the error, but currently only 1 is reserved as a failure code by the ISA reference. This is the seventh patch in the series which originally consisted of five patches that added the RISC-V ISA to gem5. The original five patches added all of the instructions and added support for more detailed CPU models and the sixth patch corrected the implementations of Linux constants and structs. There will be an eighth patch that adds some regression tests for the instructions.

2016-11-30riscv: [Patch 6/5] Improve Linux emulation for RISC-VAlec Roelke
This is an add-on patch for the original series that implemented RISC-V that improves the implementation of Linux emulation for SE mode. Basically it cleans up linux/linux.hh by removing constants that haven't been defined for the RISC-V Linux proxy kernel and rearranging the stat struct so it aligns with RISC-V's implementation of it. It also adds placeholders for system calls that have been given numbers in RISC-V but haven't been given implementations yet. These system calls are as follows: - readlinkat - sigprocmask - ioctl - clock_gettime - getrusage - getrlimit - setrlimit The first five patches implemented RISC-V with the base ISA and multiply, floating point, and atomic extensions and added support for detailed CPU models with memory timing.

2016-11-30riscv: [Patch 5/5] Added missing support for timing CPU modelsAlec Roelke
Last of five patches adding RISC-V to GEM5. This patch adds support for timing, minor, and detailed CPU models that was missing in the last four, which basically consists of handling timing-mode memory accesses and telling the minor and detailed models what a no-op instruction should be (addi zero, zero, 0). Patches 1-4 introduced RISC-V and implemented the base instruction set, RV64I, and added the multiply, floating point, and atomic memory extensions, RV64MAFD.

2016-11-30riscv: [Patch 4/5] Added RISC-V atomic memory extension RV64AAlec Roelke
Fourth of five patches adding RISC-V to GEM5. This patch adds the RV64A extension, which includes atomic memory instructions. These instructions atomically read a value from memory, modify it with a value contained in a source register, and store the original memory value in the destination register and modified value back into memory. Because this requires two memory accesses and GEM5 does not support two timing memory accesses in a single instruction, each of these instructions is split into two micro- ops: A "load" micro-op, which reads the memory, and a "store" micro-op, which modifies and writes it back. Each atomic memory instruction also has two bits that acquire and release a lock on its memory location. Additionally, there are atomic load and store instructions that only either load or store, but not both, and can acquire or release memory locks. Note that because the current implementation of RISC-V only supports one core and one thread, it doesn't make sense to make use of AMO instructions. However, they do form a standard extension of the RISC-V ISA, so they are included mostly as a placeholder for when multithreaded execution is implemented. As a result, any tests for their correctness in a future patch may be abbreviated. Patch 1 introduced RISC-V and implemented the base instruction set, RV64I; patch 2 implemented the integer multiply extension, RV64M; and patch 3 implemented the single- and double-precision floating point extensions, RV64FD. Patch 5 will add support for timing, minor, and detailed CPU models that isn't present in patches 1-4.

The loader is also modified to be able to parse RISC-V ELF files, and a "Hello world\!" example for RISC-V is added to test-progs.
