2012-02-24MEM: Make port proxies use references rather than pointersAndreas Hansson
This patch is adding a clearer design intent to all objects that would not be complete without a port proxy by making the proxies members rathen than dynamically allocated. In essence, if NULL would not be a valid value for the proxy, then we avoid using a pointer to make this clear. The same approach is used for the methods using these proxies, such as loadSections, that now use references rather than pointers to better reflect the fact that NULL would not be an acceptable value (in fact the code would break and that is how this patch started out). Overall the concept of "using a reference to express unconditional composition where a NULL pointer is never valid" could be done on a much broader scale throughout the code base, but for now it is only done in the locations affected by the proxies.
2012-02-24MEM: Move port creation to the memory object(s) constructionAndreas Hansson
This patch moves all port creation from the getPort method to be consistently done in the MemObject's constructor. This is possible thanks to the Swig interface passing the length of the vector ports. Previously there was a mix of: 1) creating the ports as members (at object construction time) and using getPort for the name resolution, or 2) dynamically creating the ports in the getPort call. This is now uniform. Furthermore, objects that would not be complete without a port have these ports as members rather than having pointers to dynamically allocated ports. This patch also enables an elaboration-time enumeration of all the ports in the system which can be used to determine the masterId.
2012-02-13MEM: Introduce the master/slave port roles in the Python classesAndreas Hansson
This patch classifies all ports in Python as either Master or Slave and enforces a binding of master to slave. Conceptually, a master (such as a CPU or DMA port) issues requests, and receives responses, and conversely, a slave (such as a memory or a PIO device) receives requests and sends back responses. Currently there is no differentiation between coherent and non-coherent masters and slaves. The classification as master/slave also involves splitting the dual role port of the bus into a master and slave port and updating all the system assembly scripts to use the appropriate port. Similarly, the interrupt devices have to have their int_port split into a master and slave port. The intdev and its children have minimal changes to facilitate the extra port. Note that this patch does not enforce any port typing in the C++ world, it merely ensures that the Python objects have a notion of the port roles and are connected in an appropriate manner. This check is carried when two ports are connected, e.g. bus.master = memory.port. The following patches will make use of the classifications and specialise the C++ ports into masters and slaves.

2012-02-12cpu: add separate stats for insts/ops both globally and per cpu modelAnthony Gutierrez
2012-02-12mem: Add a master ID to each request object.Ali Saidi
This change adds a master id to each request object which can be used identify every device in the system that is capable of issuing a request. This is part of the way to removing the numCpus+1 stats in the cache and replacing them with the master ids. This is one of a series of changes that make way for the stats output to be changed to python.
2012-02-11SPARC: Make PSTATE and HPSTATE a BitUnion.Gabe Black
This gets rid of cryptic bits of code with lots of bit manipulation, and makes some comments redundant.
2012-02-07Faults: Turn off arch/faults.hhGabe Black
Because there are no longer architecture independent but specialized functions in arch/XXX/faults.hh, code that isn't using the faults from a particular ISA no longer needs to be able to include them through the switching header file arch/faults.hh. By removing that header file (arch/faults.hh), the potential interface between ISA code and non ISA code is narrowed.

2012-01-31clang: Enable compiling gem5 using clang 2.9 and 3.0Koan-Sin Tan
This patch adds the necessary flags to the SConstruct and SConscript files for compiling using clang 2.9 and later (on Ubuntu et al and OSX XCode 4.2), and also cleans up a bunch of compiler warnings found by clang. Most of the warnings are related to hidden virtual functions, comparisons with unsigneds >= 0, and if-statements with empty bodies. A number of mismatches between struct and class are also fixed. clang 2.8 is not working as it has problems with class names that occur in multiple namespaces (e.g. Statistics in kernel_stats.hh). clang has a bug (http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=7247) which causes confusion between the container std::set and the function Packet::set, and this is currently addressed by not including the entire namespace std, but rather selecting e.g. "using std::vector" in the appropriate places.
2012-01-31util: implements "writefile" gem5 op to export file from guest to host ↵Dam Sunwoo
filesystem Usage: m5 writefile <filename> File will be created in the gem5 output folder with the identical filename. Implementation is largely based on the existing "readfile" functionality. Currently does not support exporting of folders.
2012-01-31CheckerCPU: Re-factor CheckerCPU to be compatible with current gem5Geoffrey Blake
Brings the CheckerCPU back to life to allow FS and SE checking of the O3CPU. These changes have only been tested with the ARM ISA. Other ISAs potentially require modification.

2012-01-30MEM: Clean-up of Functional/Virtual/TranslatingPort remnantsAndreas Hansson

2012-01-17MEM: Separate queries for snooping and address rangesAndreas Hansson
This patch simplifies the address-range determination mechanism and also unifies the naming across ports and devices. It further splits the queries for determining if a port is snooping and what address ranges it responds to (aiming towards a separation of cache-maintenance ports and pure memory-mapped ports). Default behaviours are such that most ports do not have to define isSnooping, and master ports need not implement getAddrRanges.
2012-01-17MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural portsAndreas Hansson
Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data port in a port proxy. The following replacements are made: FunctionalPort > PortProxy TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy --HG-- rename : src/mem/vport.cc => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/vport.hh => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.hh rename : src/mem/translating_port.cc => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/translating_port.hh => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.hh

A recent changeset (aae12ce9f34c) removed support for PAL-mode breakpoints in Alpha, since it was awkward and likely unused. This patch lets a user know if they potentially run into this limitation.

2012-01-05X86 TLB: Move a DPRINTF to its correct placeNilay Vaish
The DPRINTF for doing protection checks appears after the checks have been carried out. It is possible that the function returns while the checks are being carried, in which case the printf is missed out. This patch moves the DPRINTF before the checks. --HG-- extra : rebase_source : 172896057e593022444d882ea93323a5d9f77a89
