regressions.
This changes the default ARM system to a Versatile Express-like system that supports
2GB of memory and PCI devices and updates the default kernels/file-systems for
AArch64 ARM systems (64-bit) to support up to 32GB of memory and PCI devices. Some
platforms that are no longer supported have been pruned from the configuration files.
In addition a set of 64-bit ARM regressions have been added to the regression system.

Automatically extract cpu release address from DTB file.
Check SCTLR_EL1 to verify all caches are enabled.
|
|
The checker can't verify timer registers, so it should just grab the version
from the executing CPU, otherwise it could get a larger value and diverge
execution.

The identifier SYS_getdents is not available on Mac OS X. Therefore, its use
results in compilation failure. It seems there is no straight forward way to
implement the system call getdents using readdir() or similar C functions.
Hence the commit 6709bbcf564d is being rolled back.

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.

This patch takes quite a large step in transitioning from the ad-hoc
RefCountingPtr to the c++11 shared_ptr by adopting its use for all
Faults. There are no changes in behaviour, and the code modifications
are mostly just replacing "new" with "make_shared".

This patch makes the memory system ISA-agnostic by enabling the Ruby
Sequencer to dynamically determine if it has to do a store check. To
enable this check, the ISA is encoded as an enum, and the system
is able to provide the ISA to the Sequencer at run time.

This changeset adds probe points that can be used to implement PMU
counters for TLB stats. The following probes are supported:
* ArmISA::TLB::ppRefills / TLB Refills (TLB insertions)
|
|
This class implements a subset of the ARM PMU v3 specification as
described in the ARMv8 reference manual. It supports most of the
features of the PMU, however the following features are known to be
missing:
* Event filtering (e.g., from different privilege levels).
* Access controls (the PMU currently ignores the execution level).
* The chain counter (event no. 0x1E) is unimplemented.
The PMU itself does not implement any events, it merely provides an
interface for the configuration scripts to hook up probes that drive
events. Configuration scripts should call addEventProbe() to configure
custom events or high-level methods to configure architected
events. The Python implementation of addEventProbe() automatically
delays event type registration until after instantiation.
In order to support CPU switching and some combined counters (e.g.,
memory references synthesized from loads and stores), the PMU allows
multiple probes per event type. When creating a system that switches
between CPU models that share the same PMU, PMU events for all of the
CPU models can be registered with the PMU.
Kudos to Matt Horsnell for the initial gem5 implementation of the PMU.

Speculative exeuction can cause panics in detailed execution mode that

LongModeAddressSize was used by kernel 2.6.28.4 for physical address
validation, if not properly implemented, PCI resource allocation may
failed because of ioremap failed:
- linux-2.6.28.4/arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:27-30
27 static inline int phys_addr_valid(unsigned long addr)
28 {
29 return addr < (1UL << boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits);
30 }
- linux-2.6.28.4/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:475-482
475 #ifdef CONFIG_X86_64
476 if (c->extended_cpuid_level >= 0x80000008) {
477 u32 eax = cpuid_eax(0x80000008);
478
479 c->x86_virt_bits = (eax >> 8) & 0xff;
480 c->x86_phys_bits = eax & 0xff;
481 }
482 #endif
- linux-2.6.28.4/arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:209-214
209 if (!phys_addr_valid(phys_addr)) {
210 printk(KERN_WARNING "ioremap: invalid physical address %llx\n",
211 (unsigned long long)phys_addr);
212 WARN_ON_ONCE(1);
213 return NULL;
214 }
This patch return 0x0000ffff for LongModeAddressSize, which guarantee phys_addr_valid never failed.

Some additional type checking to avoid future issues.
|
|
Some incorrect casting to IntRegIndex, and a few uninitialized members
in the i8254xGBe device.

This patch fixes the runtime errors highlighted by the undefined
behaviour sanitizer. In the end there were two issues. First, when
rotating an immediate, we ended up shifting an uint32_t by 32 in some
cases. This case is fixed by checking for a rotation by 0
positions. Second, the Mrc15 and Mcr15 are operating on an IntReg and
a MiscReg, but we used the type RegRegImmOp and passed a MiscRegIndex
as an IntRegIndex. This issue is resolved by introducing a
MiscRegRegImmOp and RegMiscRegImmOp with the appropriate types.
With these fixes there are no runtime errors identified for the full
ARM regressions.

This patch optimises the passing of StaticInstPtr by avoiding copying
the reference-counting pointer. This avoids first incrementing and
then decrementing the reference-counting pointer.
|
|
Fix a number few minor issues to please gcc 4.9.1. Removing the
'-fuse-linker-plugin' flag means no libraries are part of the LTO
process, but hopefully this is an acceptable loss, as the flag causes
issues on a lot of systems (only certain combinations of gcc, ld and
ar work).

activate(), suspend(), and halt() used on thread contexts had an optional
delay parameter. However this parameter was often ignored. Also, when used,
the delay was seemily arbitrarily set to 0 or 1 cycle (no other delays were
ever specified). This patch removes the delay parameter and 'Events'
associated with them across all ISAs and cores. Unused activate logic
is also removed.

This patch changes the name of the Bus classes to XBar to better
reflect the actual timing behaviour. The actual instances in the
config scripts are not renamed, and remain as e.g. iobus or membus.
As part of this renaming, the code has also been clean up slightly,
making use of range-based for loops and tidying up some comments. The
only changes outside the bus/crossbar code is due to the delay
variables in the packet.

This patch changes how faults are passed between methods in an attempt
to copy as few reference-counting pointer instances as possible. This
should avoid unecessary copies being created, contributing to the
increment/decrement of the reference counters.
|
|
This patch closes a number of space gaps in debug messages caused by
the incorrect use of line continuation within strings. (There's also
one consistency change to a similar, but correct, use of line
continuation)

Multiple instructions assume only 32-bit load operations are available,
this patch increases load sizes to 64-bit or 128-bit for many load pair and
load multiple instructions.
|
|
The o3 cpu relies upon instructions that suspend a thread context being
flagged as "IsQuiesce". If they are not, unpredictable behavior can occur.
This patch fixes that for the x86 ISA.

Neon memory ops that operate on multiple registers currently have very poor
performance because of interleave/deinterleave micro-ops.
This patch marks the deinterleave/interleave micro-ops as "No_OpClass" such
that they take minumum cycles to execute and are never resource constrained.
Additionaly the micro-ops over-read registers. Although one form may need
to read up to 20 sources, not all do. This adds in new forms so false
dependencies are not modeled. Instructions read their minimum number of
sources.
|
|
Analogous to ee049bf (for x86). Requires a bump of the checkpoint version
and corresponding upgrader code to move the condition code register values
to the new register file.
|
|
This patch substituted the zero register for X31 used as a
destination register. This prevents false dependencies based on
X31.
|
|
v7 cbz/cbnz instructions were improperly marked as indirect branches.
|
|
isa_parser.py guesses the OpClass if none were given based upon the StaticInst
flags. The existing code does not take into account optionally set flags.
This code hoists the setting of optional flags so OpClass is properly assigned.

We currently generate and compile one version of the ISA code per CPU
model. This is obviously wasting a lot of resources at compile
time. This changeset factors out the interface into a separate
ExecContext class, which also serves as documentation for the
interface between CPUs and the ISA code. While doing so, this
changeset also fixes up interface inconsistencies between the
different CPU models.
The main argument for using one set of ISA code per CPU model has
always been performance as this avoid indirect branches in the
generated code. However, this argument does not hold water. Booting
Linux on a simulated ARM system running in atomic mode
(opt/10.linux-boot/realview-simple-atomic) is actually 2% faster
(compiled using clang 3.4) after applying this patch. Additionally,
compilation time is decreased by 35%.

This patch prunes unused values, and also unifies how the values are
defined (not using an enum for ALPHA), aligning the use of int vs Addr
etc.
The patch also removes the duplication of PageBytes/PageShift and
VMPageSize/LogVMPageSize. For all ISAs the two pairs had identical
values and the latter has been removed.
|
|
When passed from a configuration script with a hexadecimal value (like
"0x80000000"), gem5 would error out. This is because it would call
"toMemorySize" which requires the argument to end with a size specifier (like
1MB, etc).
This modification makes it so raw hex values can be passed through Addr
parameters from the configuration scripts.
|
|
This patch fixes the hash operator used for ARM ExtMachInst, which
incorrectly was still using uint32_t. Instead of changing it to
uint64_t it is not using the underlying data type of the BitUnion.
|
|
This patch sets op class of two fp instructions: movfp and pop x87 stack
as IntAluOp since these instructions do not make use of the fp alu.
|
|
This patch enables the use of page tables that are stored in system memory
and respect x86 specification, in SE mode. It defines an architectural
page table for x86 as a MultiLevelPageTable class and puts a placeholder
class for other ISAs page tables, giving the possibility for future
implementation.
|
|
We currently use our own home-baked support for type-safe variadic
functions. This is confusing and somewhat limited (e.g., cprintf only
supports a limited number of arguments). This changeset converts all
uses of our internal varargs support to use C++11 variadic macros.

MIPS defined RLIMIT_RSS in a way that could cause a naming conflict with
RLIMIT_RSS from the host system. Broke clang+MacOS build.
|
|
The order of the MSB and LSB bit of the mm field in the PSTATE union
is wrong. Any access to this field will currently be ignored and reads
will always return zero. This patch fixes the ordering so it is <MSB,
LSB> instead of <LSB, MSB>.
|
|
Some newer binaries compiled for Versatile Express TC2 contain access
to implementation specific L2MERRSR registers. This causes an infinite
loop of undefined exceptions. This patch changes the behavior to "warn
not fail" to keep the workloads going.

Certain versions of clang complain about unused private members if
they are not used. This changeset removes such members from the
MIPS-specific classes to silence the warning.

Adds DVFS capabilities to gem5, by allowing users to specify lists for
frequencies and voltages in SrcClockDomains and VoltageDomains respectively.
A separate component, DVFSHandler, provides a small interface to change
operating points of the associated domains.
Clock domains will be linked to voltage domains and thus allow separate clock,
but shared voltage lines.
Currently all the valid performance-level updates are performed with a fixed
transition latency as specified for the domain.
Config file example:
...
vd = VoltageDomain(voltage = ['1V','0.95V','0.90V','0.85V'])
tsys.cluster1.clk_domain.clock = ['1GHz','700MHz','400MHz','230MHz']
tsys.cluster2.clk_domain.clock = ['1GHz','700MHz','400MHz','230MHz']
tsys.cluster1.clk_domain.domain_id = 0
tsys.cluster2.clk_domain.domain_id = 1
tsys.cluster1.clk_domain.voltage_domain = vd
tsys.cluster2.clk_domain.voltage_domain = vd
tsys.dvfs_handler.domains = [tsys.cluster1.clk_domain,
tsys.cluster2.clk_domain]
tsys.dvfs_handler.enable = True

In a cycle, we could see a R and W requests corresponding to the same
page walk being sent to the memory. During the cycle that assertion
happens, we have 2 responses corresponding to the R and W above. We
also have a 'read' variable to keep track of the inflight Read
request, this gets reset to NULL right after we send out any R
request; and gets set to the next R in the page walk when a response
comes back.
The issue we are seeing here is when we get a response for W request,
assert(!read) fires because we got a response for R request right
before this, hence we set 'read' to NOT NULL value, pointing to the
next R request in the pagewalk!
This work was done while Binh was an intern at AMD Research.

Using '== true' in a boolean expression is totally redundant,
and using '== false' is pretty verbose (and arguably less
readable in most cases) compared to '!'.
It's somewhat of a pet peeve, perhaps, but I had some time
waiting for some tests to run and decided to clean these up.
Unfortunately, SLICC appears not to have the '!' operator,
so I had to leave the '== false' tests in the SLICC code.
