readBytes and writeBytes had the word "bytes" in their names because they
accessed blobs of bytes. This distinguished them from the read and write
functions which handled higher level data types. Because those functions don't
exist any more, this change renames readBytes and writeBytes to more general
names, readMem and writeMem, which reflect the fact that they are how you read
and write memory. This also makes their names more consistent with the
register reading/writing functions, although those are still read and set for
some reason.

If a fault was returned by the CPU when a store initiated it's write, the
store instruction would ignore the fault. This change fixes that.

A significant contributor to the need for adoptOrphanParams()
is the practice of appending to SimObjectVectors which have
already been assigned as children. This practice sidesteps the
assignment operation for those appended SimObjects, which is
where parent/child relationships are typically established.
This patch reworks the config scripts that use append() on
SimObjectVectors, which all happen to be in the x86 system
configuration. At some point in the future, I hope to make
SimObjectVectors immutable (by deriving from tuple rather than
list), at which time this patch will be necessary for correct
operation. For now, it just avoids some of the warning
messages that get printed in adoptOrphanParams().

Debug flags are ExecUser, ExecKernel, and ExecAsid. ExecUser and
ExecKernel are set by default when Exec is specified. Use minus
sign with ExecUser or ExecKernel to remove user or kernel tracing
respectively.

This change makes the decoder figure out if an instruction that only supports
memory is using a register encoding and decodes directly to "Unknown" which will
behave appropriately. This prevents other parts of the instruction creation
process from seeing the mismatch and asserting.
|
|
At the same time, rename the trace flags to debug flags since they
have broader usage than simply tracing. This means that
--trace-flags is now --debug-flags and --trace-help is now --debug-help

Consolidate all code to handle ITSTATE in the PCState object rather than
touching a variety of structures/objects.

***
(1): get rid of expandForMT function
MIPS is the only ISA that cares about having a piece of ISA state integrate
multiple threads so add constants for MIPS and relieve the other ISAs from having
to define this. Also, InOrder was the only core that was actively calling
this function
* * *
(2): get rid of corespecific type
The CoreSpecific type was used as a proxy to pass in HW specific params to
a MIPS CPU, but since MIPS FS hasnt been touched for awhile, it makes sense
to not force every other ISA to use CoreSpecific as well use a special
reset function to set it. That probably should go in a PowerOn reset fault
anyway.

The internet says this instruction was created by accident when an Intel CPU
failed to decode x87 instructions properly. It's been documented on a few rare
occasions and has generally worked to ensure backwards compatability. One
source claims that the gcc toolchain is basically the only thing that emits
it, and that emulators/binary translators like qemu and bochs implement it.
We won't actually implement it here since we're hardly implementing any other
x87 instructions either. If we were to implement it, it would behave the same
as ffree but then also pop the register stack.

There may not be a formally correct spelling for the past tense of mmap, but
mmapped is the spelling Google doesn't try to autocorrect. This makes sense
because it mirrors the past tense of map->mapped and not the past tense of
cape->caped.

This was making certain versions of gcc omit the function from the object file
which would break the build.
|
|
The size of the current instruction determines what the npc should be if
there's no branching.
|
|
Using the destination register directly causes the ISA parser to treat it as a
source even if none of the original bits are used.
|
|
In x86, 32 and 64 bit writes to registers in which registers appear to be 32 or
64 bits wide overwrite all bits of the destination register. This change
removes false dependencies in these cases where the previous value of a
register doesn't need to be read to write a new value. New versions of most
microops are created that have a "Big" suffix which simply overwrite their
destination, and the right version to use is selected during microop
allocation based on the selected data size.
This does not change the performance of the O3 CPU model significantly, I
assume because there are other false dependencies from the condition code bits
in the flags register.

This way a bad micropc will have to get all the way to commit before killing
the simulation. This accounts for misspeculated branches.
|
|
These faults can panic/warn/warn_once, etc., instead of instructions doing
that themselves directly. That way, instructions can be speculatively
executed, and only if they're actually going to commit will their fault be
invoked and the panic, etc., happen.

When redirecting fetch to handle branches, the npc of the current pc state
needs to be left alone. This change makes the pc state record whether or not
the npc already reflects a real value by making it keep track of the current
instruction size, or if no size has been set.

If cr0.wp ("write protect" bit) is clear then do not generate page faults when
writing to write-protected pages in kernel mode.

During SYSCALL_64, use dataSize=8 when handling new rip (ref
http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/manual/253668.pdf 5.8.8 IA32_LSTAR is a 64-bit
address)

JMP_FAR_I was unpacking its far pointer operand using sll instead of srl like
it should, and also putting the components in the wrong registers for use by
other microcode.

|
During iret access LDT/GDT at CPL0 rather than after transition to user mode
(if I'm reading the Intel IA-64 architecture spec correctly, the contents of
the descriptor table are read before the CPL is updated).

Move page table walker state to its own object type, and make the
walker instantiate state for each outstanding walk. By storing the
states in a queue, the walker is able to handle multiple outstanding
timing requests. Note that functional walks use separate state
elements.
|

Add checkpointing capability to the x86 interrupt device and the TLBs
|
|
Calls walker to look up virt. to phys. page mapping
|
|
The x86 local apic now includes a separate latency parameter for interrupts.

delete
Double packet delete problem is due to an interrupt device deleting a packet that the SimpleTimingPort also deletes. Since MessagePort descends from SimpleTimingPort, simply reimplement the failing code from SimpleTimingPort: recvTiming.

This step makes it easy to replace the accessor functions
(which still access a global variable) with ones that access
per-thread curTick values.

Ran all the source files through 'perl -pi' with this script:
s|\s*(};?\s*)?/\*\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*\*/(\s*})?|} // namespace $3|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*|} // namespace $2\n|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(\S+)\s*namespace\s*|} // namespace $1\n|;
Also did a little manual editing on some of the arch/*/isa_traits.hh files
and src/SConscript.
