This patch adds some more functionality to the cpu model and the arch to
interface with the vector register file.
This change consists mainly of augmenting ThreadContexts and ExecContexts
with calls to get/set full vectors, underlying microarchitectural elements
or lanes. Those are meant to interface with the vector register file. All
classes that implement this interface also get an appropriate implementation.
This requires implementing the vector register file for the different
models using the VecRegContainer class.
This change set also updates the Result abstraction to contemplate the
possibility of having a vector as result.
The changes also affect how the remote_gdb connection works.
There are some (nasty) side effects, such as the need to define dummy
numPhysVecRegs parameter values for architectures that do not implement
vector extensions.
Nathanael Premillieu's work with an increasing number of fixes and
improvements of mine.

With the hierarchical RegId there are a lot of functions that are
redundant now.
The idea behind the simplification is that instead of having the regId,
telling which kind of register read/write/rename/lookup/etc. and then
the function panic_if'ing if the regId is not of the appropriate type,
we provide an interface that decides what kind of register to read
depending on the register type of the given regId.

Replace the unified register mapping with a structure associating
a class and an index. It is now much easier to know which class of
register the index is referring to. Also, when adding a new class
there is no need to modify existing ones.

This patch fixes a problem with RISC-V initial stack setup in SE mode
where the AT_RANDOM aux vector value contains an address that is too
close to the top of the stack and doesn't fit the required 16 bytes. To
fix this, the program header table was added to the top of the stack
just like the RISC-V proxy kernel does.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
|
|
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
