This patch fixes two problems with the O3 cpu model. The first is an issue
with an instruction fetch causing a fault on the next address while the
current macro-op is being issued. This happens when the micro-ops exceed
the fetch bandwdith and then on the next cycle the fetch stage attempts
to issue a request to the next line while it still has micro-ops to issue
if the next line faults a fault is attached to a micro-op in the currently
executing macro-op rather than a "nop" from the next instruction block.
This leads to an instruction incorrectly faulting when on fetch when
it had no reason to fault.
A similar problem occurs with interrupts. When an interrupt occurs the
fetch stage nominally stops issuing instructions immediately. This is incorrect
in the case of a macro-op as the current location might not be interruptable.

This change further eliminates cases where condition codes were being read
just so they could be written without change because the instruction in
question was supposed to preserve them. This is done by creating the condition
code code based on the input rather than just doing a simple substitution.
|
|
If one of the condition codes isn't being used in the execution we should only
read it if the instruction might be dependent on it. With the preeceding changes
there are several more cases where we should dynamically pick instead of assuming
as we did before.
|
|
Break up the condition code bits into NZ, C, V registers. These are individually
written and this removes some incorrect dependencies between instructions.
|
|
Move the saturating bit (which is also saturating) from the renamed register
that holds the flags to the CPSR miscreg and adds a allows setting it in a
similar way to the FP saturating registers. This removes a dependency in
instructions that don't write, but need to preserve the Q bit.
|
|
This change splits out the condcodes from being one monolithic register
into three blocks that are updated independently. This allows CPUs
to not have to do RMW operations on the flags registers for instructions
that don't write all flags.
|
|
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.
|
|
Add registers and components to better support the VersatileEB board.
Made the MIDR and SYS_ID register parameters to ArmSystem and RealviewCtrl
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

This change uses the locked_mem.hh header to handle implementing CLREX. It
simplifies the current implementation greatly.
|
|
This change fixes a small bug in the arm copyRegs() code where some registers
wouldn't be copied if the processor was in a mode other than MODE_USER.
Additionally, this change simplifies the way the O3 switchCpu code works by
utilizing TheISA::copyRegs() to copy the required context information
rather than the adhoc copying that goes on in the CPU model. The current code
makes assumptions about the visibility of int and float registers that aren't
true for all architectures in FS mode.

Only certain bits of the cpacr can be written, some must be equal.
Mult instructions that write the same register should do something sane
|
|
Consolidate all code to handle ITSTATE in the PCState object rather than
touching a variety of structures/objects.
|
|
All the m5op parameters are 64 bits, but we were only sending 32 bits;
and the static register indexes were incorrectly specified.

***
(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.

Updated some of the assembly code sequences to use armv7 instructions and
coprocessor 15 for storing the TLS pointer.
|
|
If the instruction faults mid-op the base register shouldn't be written back.
|
|
The ISAR registers describe which features the processor supports.
Transcribe the values listed in section B5.2.5 of the ARM ARM
into the registers as read-only values

This change speeds up booting, especially in MP cases, by not executing
udelay() on the core but instead skipping ahead tha amount of time that is being
delayed.
|
|
This patch prevents not executed conditional instructions marked as
IsQuiesce from stalling the pipeline indefinitely. If the instruction
is not executed the quiesceSkip psuedoinst is called which schedules a
wakes up call to the fetch stage.
|

This changes the RFE macroop into 3 microops:
URa = [sp]; URb = [sp+4]; // load CPSR,PC values from stack
sp = sp + offset; // optionally auto-increment
PC = URa; CPSR = URb; // write to the PC and CPSR.
Importantly:
- writing to PC is handled in the last micro-op.
- loading occurs prior to state changes.
