The vsyscall address for gettimeofday is 0xffffffffff600000ul. The offset
therefore should be 0x0 instead of 0x410. This can be cross checked with
the file sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/gettimeofday.c in source of glibc.

The 'lret' instruction reloads instruction pointer and code segment from the
stack and then pops them. But the popping part is missing from the current
implementation. This caused incorrect behavior in some code related to the
Fiasco OS. Microops are being added to rectify the behavior of the instruction.

Add the method checkRaw to ArmISA::Interrupts. This method can be used
to query the raw state (ignoring CPSR masks) of an interrupt. It is
primarily intended for hardware virtualized CPUs.

Add the options 'panic_on_panic' and 'panic_on_oops' to the
LinuxArmSystem SimObject. When these option are enabled, the simulator
panics when the guest kernel panics or oopses. Enable panic on panic
and panic on oops in ARM-based test cases.

This changeset adds support for forwarding arguments to the PC
event constructors to following methods:
addKernelFuncEvent
addFuncEvent
Additionally, this changeset adds the following helper method to the
System base class:
addFuncEventOrPanic - Hook a PCEvent to a symbol, panic on failure.
addKernelFuncEventOrPanic - Hook a PCEvent to a kernel symbol, panic
on failure.
System implementations have been updated to use the new functionality
where appropriate.

This patch adds a missing flag to the ldr_ret_uop microop instruction.
The flag is added when the instruction is used, not directly in the
constructor of the instruction.

It is possible that operating system wants to shutdown the
lapic timer by writing timer's initial count to 0. This patch
adds a check that the timer event is only scheduled if the
count is 0.
The patch also converts few of the panics related to the keyboard
to warnings since we are any way not interested in simulating the
keyboard.

A derived function with a different signature than a base class
function will result in the base class function of the same name being
hidden. The parameter list and return type for the member function in
the derived class must match those of the member function in the base
class, otherwise the function in the derived class will hide the
function in the base class and no polymorphic behaviour will occur.
This patch addresses these warnings by ensuring a unique function name
to avoid (unintentionally) hiding any functions.

This patch adds a warning for missing field initializers for both gcc

This patch address the most important name shadowing warnings (as
produced when using gcc/clang with -Wshadow). There are many
locations where constructor parameters and function parameters shadow
local variables, but these are left unchanged.

This patch moves the 16x APIC clock divider to the Python code to
avoid the post-instantiation modifications to the clock. The x86 APIC
was the only object setting the clock after creation time and this
required some custom functionality and configuration. With this patch,
the clock multiplier is moved to the Python code and the objects are
instantiated with the appropriate clock.

This patch adds a predecessor field to the SenderState base class to
make the process of linking them up more uniform, and enable a
traversal of the stack without knowing the specific type of the
subclasses.
There are a number of simplifications done as part of changing the
SenderState, particularly in the RubyTest.

If multiple memory operations to the same page are miss the TLB they are
all inserted into the page table queue and before this change could result
in multiple uncessesary walks as well as duplicate enteries being inserted
into the TLB.

Virtualized CPUs and the fastmem mode of the atomic CPU require direct
access to physical memory. We currently require caches to be disabled
when using them to prevent chaos. This is not ideal when switching
between hardware virutalized CPUs and other CPU models as it would
require a configuration change on each switch. This changeset
introduces a new version of the atomic memory mode,
'atomic_noncaching', where memory accesses are inserted into the
memory system as atomic accesses, but bypass caches.
To make memory mode tests cleaner, the following methods are added to
the System class:
* isAtomicMode() -- True if the memory mode is 'atomic' or 'direct'.
* isTimingMode() -- True if the memory mode is 'timing'.
* bypassCaches() -- True if caches should be bypassed.
The old getMemoryMode() and setMemoryMode() methods should never be
used from the C++ world anymore.

The explict tests in the follwing fp comparison operations were
incorrect as they checked for only signaling NaNs and not quite-NaNs
as well. When compiled with gcc, the comparison generates a fp exception
that causes the FE_INVALID flag to be set and we check for it, so even
though the check was incorrect, the correct exception was set. With clang
this behavior seems to not occur. The checks are updated to test for nans and
the behavior is now correct with both clang and gcc.
|
|
Clang generated executables would enter the if condition when it wasn't
supposted to, resulting in the wrong simulated behavior.
Implementing the operation this way is a bit faster anyway.

The changes made by the changeset 270c9a75e91f do not work well with switching
of cpus. The problem is that decoder for the old thread context holds state
that is not taken over by the new decoder.
This patch adds a takeOverFrom() function to Decoder class in each ISA. Except
for x86, functions in other ISAs are blank. For x86, the function copies state
from the old decoder to the new decoder.
|
|
Note that clflush is only being enabled. It is not implemented
in actual. A warning is printed if the cpu encounters a clflush
instruction. We need to enable this instruction in cpuid since
JRE 1.7 tests for it.

The changes made by the changeset 9376 were not quite correct. The patch made
changes to the code which resulted in decoder not getting initialized correctly
when the state was restored from a checkpoint.
This patch adds a startup function to each ISA object. For x86, this function
sets the required state in the decoder. For other ISAs, the function is empty
right now.

Used as a command in full-system scripts helps the user ensure the benchmarks have finished successfully.
For example, one can use:
/path/to/benchmark args || /sbin/m5 fail 1
and thus ensure gem5 will exit with an error if the benchmark fails.

This changeset inserts a TLB flush in BaseCPU::switchOut to prevent
stale translations when doing repeated switching. Additionally, the
TLB flushing functionality is exported to the Python to make debugging
of switching/checkpointing easier.
A simulation script will typically use the TLB flushing functionality
to generate a reference trace. The following sequence can be used to
simulate a handover (this depends on how drain is implemented, but is
generally the case) between identically configured CPU models:
m5.drain(test_sys)
[ cpu.flushTLBs() for cpu in test_sys.cpu ]
m5.resume(test_sys)
The generated trace should normally be identical to a trace generated
when switching between identically configured CPU models or
checkpointing and resuming.
|
|
Currently, we invalidate the cached miscregs in
TLB::unserialize(). The intended use of the drainResume() method is to
invalidate cached state and prepare the system to resume after a CPU
handover or (un)serialization. This patch moves the TLB miscregs
invalidation code to the drainResume() method to avoid surprising
behavior.
|
|
Since the page table walker only checks if a drain has completed in
doL1DescriptorWrapper() and doL2DescriptorWrapper(), it sometimes
looses track of a drain request if there is a squash. This changeset
adds a completeDrain() call after squashing requests in the pending
queue, which fixes this issue.

In order to see all registers independent of the current CPU mode, the
ARM architecture model uses the magic MISCREG_CPSR_MODE register to
change the register mappings without actually updating the CPU
mode. This hack is no longer needed since the thread context now
provides a flat interface to the register file. This patch replaces
the CPSR_MODE hack with the flat register interface.
|
|
After making the ISA an independent SimObject, it is serialized
automatically by the Python world. Previously, this just resulted in
an empty ISA section. This patch moves the contents of the ISA to that
section and removes the explicit ISA serialization from the thread
contexts, which makes it behave like a normal SimObject during
serialization.
Note: This patch breaks checkpoint backwards compatibility! Use the
cpt_upgrader.py utility to upgrade old checkpoints to the new format.
|
|
This patch adds support for the memInvalidate() drain method. TLB
flushing is requested by calling the virtual flushAll() method on the
TLB.
Note: This patch renames invalidateAll() to flushAll() on x86 and
SPARC to make the interface consistent across all supported
architectures.

At least gcc 4.4.3 seems to get confused by the use of func both as a
template parameter and a member variable in the M5VarArgsFault
class. This causes the value of the member variable func to be
unpredictable in M5VarArgsFault objects. This changeset renames the
template parameter to remove this ambiguity.

This patch makes the start and end address private in a move to
prevent direct manipulation and matching of ranges based on these
fields. This is done so that a transition to ranges with interleaving
support is possible.
As a result of hiding the start and end, a number of member functions
are needed to perform the comparisons and manipulations that
previously took place directly on the members. An accessor function is
provided for the start address, and a function is added to test if an
address is within a range. As a result of the latter the != and ==
operator is also removed in favour of the member function. A member
function that returns a string representation is also created to allow
debug printing.
In general, this patch does not add any functionality, but it does
take us closer to a situation where interleaving (and more cleverness)
can be added under the bonnet without exposing it to the user. More on
that in a later patch.

This patch makes the values of ID_ISARx, MIDR, and FPSID configurable
as ISA parameter values. Additionally, setMiscReg now ignores writes
to all of the ID registers.
Note: This moves the MIDR parameter from ArmSystem to ArmISA for
consistency.
|
|
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.
|
|
This patch unlocks the cpu-local monitor when the CPU sees a snoop to a locked
address. Previously we relied on the cache to handle the locking for us, however
some users on the gem5 mailing list reported a case where the cpu speculatively
executes a ll operation after a pending sc operation in the pipeline and that
makes the cache monitor valid. This should handle that case by invaliding the
local monitor.

This interface is no longer used, and getting rid of it simplifies the
decoders and code that sets up the decoders. The thread context had been used
to read architectural state which was used to contextualize the instruction
memory as it came in. That was changed so that the state is now sent to the
decoders to keep locally if/when it changes. That's significantly more
efficient.

uopSet_uop is microop instruction that has the IsControl flags set, but the
IsCondControl or IsUncondControl flags seems not to be set, neither in
the construction nor where the microop is used. This patch adds the the
