2014-11-23kvm, x86: Adding support for SE mode executionAlexandru Dutu
This patch adds methods in KvmCPU model to handle KVM exits caused by syscall instructions and page faults. These types of exits will be encountered if KvmCPU is run in SE mode.
2014-10-20x86: Fixes to avoid LTO warningsAndreas Hansson
This patch fixes a few minor issues that caused link-time warnings when using LTO, mainly for x86. The most important change is how the syscall array is created. Previously gcc and clang would complain that the declaration and definition types did not match. The organisation is now changed to match how it is done for ARM, moving the code that was previously in syscalls.cc into process.cc, and having a class variable pointing to the static array. With these changes, there are no longer any warnings using gcc 4.6.3 with LTO.
2014-05-09arch: teach ISA parser how to split code across filesCurtis Dunham
This patch encompasses several interrelated and interdependent changes to the ISA generation step. The end goal is to reduce the size of the generated compilation units for instruction execution and decoding so that batch compilation can proceed with all CPUs active without exhausting physical memory. The ISA parser (src/arch/isa_parser.py) has been improved so that it can accept 'split [output_type];' directives at the top level of the grammar and 'split(output_type)' python calls within 'exec {{ ... }}' blocks. This has the effect of "splitting" the files into smaller compilation units. I use air-quotes around "splitting" because the files themselves are not split, but preprocessing directives are inserted to have the same effect. Architecturally, the ISA parser has had some changes in how it works. In general, it emits code sooner. It doesn't generate per-CPU files, and instead defers to the C preprocessor to create the duplicate copies for each CPU type. Likewise there are more files emitted and the C preprocessor does more substitution that used to be done by the ISA parser. Finally, the build system (SCons) needs to be able to cope with a dynamic list of source files coming out of the ISA parser. The changes to the SCons{cript,truct} files support this. In broad strokes, the targets requested on the command line are hidden from SCons until all the build dependencies are determined, otherwise it would try, realize it can't reach the goal, and terminate in failure. Since build steps (i.e. running the ISA parser) must be taken to determine the file list, several new build stages have been inserted at the very start of the build. First, the build dependencies from the ISA parser will be emitted to arch/$ISA/generated/inc.d, which is then read by a new SCons builder to finalize the dependencies. (Once inc.d exists, the ISA parser will not need to be run to complete this step.) Once the dependencies are known, the 'Environments' are made by the makeEnv() function. This function used to be called before the build began but now happens during the build. It is easy to see that this step is quite slow; this is a known issue and it's important to realize that it was already slow, but there was no obvious cause to attribute it to since nothing was displayed to the terminal. Since new steps that used to be performed serially are now in a potentially-parallel build phase, the pathname handling in the SCons scripts has been tightened up to deal with chdir() race conditions. In general, pathnames are computed earlier and more likely to be stored, passed around, and processed as absolute paths rather than relative paths. In the end, some of these issues had to be fixed by inserting serializing dependencies in the build. Minor note: For the null ISA, we just provide a dummy inc.d so SCons is never compelled to try to generate it. While it seems slightly wrong to have anything in src/arch/*/generated (i.e. a non-generated 'generated' file), it's by far the simplest solution.
2013-01-07arch: Make the ISA class inherit from SimObjectAndreas Sandberg
The ISA class on stores the contents of ID registers on many architectures. In order to make reset values of such registers configurable, we make the class inherit from SimObject, which allows us to use the normal generated parameter headers. This patch introduces a Python helper method, BaseCPU.createThreads(), which creates a set of ISAs for each of the threads in an SMT system. Although it is currently only needed when creating multi-threaded CPUs, it should always be called before instantiating the system as this is an obvious place to configure ID registers identifying a thread/CPU.

2012-06-04ISA: Turn the ExtMachInst NoopMachinst into the StaticInstPtr NoopStaticInst.Gabe Black
This eliminates a use of the ExtMachInst type outside of the ISAs.
2012-05-26CPU: Merge the predecoder and decoder.Gabe Black
These classes are always used together, and merging them will give the ISAs more flexibility in how they cache things and manage the process. --HG-- rename : src/arch/x86/predecoder_tables.cc => src/arch/x86/decoder_tables.cc

2011-02-13X86: On a bad microopc, return a microop that returns a fault that panics.Gabe Black
This way a bad micropc will have to get all the way to commit before killing the simulation. This accounts for misspeculated branches.
