Mostly addressing uninitialised members.
|
|
|
|
Another churn to clean up undefined behaviour, mostly ARM, but some
parts also touching the generic part of the code base.
Most of the fixes are simply ensuring that proper intialisation. One
of the more subtle changes is the return type of the sign-extension,
which is changed to uint64_t. This is to avoid shifting negative
values (undefined behaviour) in the ISA code.

This patch reverts changeset 9277177eccff which does not do what it
was intended to do. In essence, we go back to implementing mkutctime
much like the non-standard timegm extension.

|
Automatically extract cpu release address from DTB file.
Check SCTLR_EL1 to verify all caches are enabled.

This patch changes how we turn time into UTC. Previously we
manipulated the TZ environment variable, but this has issues as the
strings that are manipulated could be tainted (see e.g. CERT
ENV34-C). Now we simply rely on the built-in gmtime function and avoid
touching getenv/setenv all together.

|
This patch adds an explicit function to get the underlying node as gcc
4.6.1 and 4.6.2 have issues otherwise.
|
|
The new location seems like a better fit. The iterator typedefs are
removed in favour of using C++11 auto.

This patch adds a 'wakeup' member function to EventQueue which should be
called on an event queue whenever an event is scheduled on the event queue
from outside code within the call tree of the gem5 event loop.
This clearly isn't necessary for normal gem5 EventQueue operation but
becomes the minimum necessary interface to allow hosting gem5's event loop
onto other schedulers where there may be calls into gem5 from external
code which schedules events onto an EventQueue between the current time and
the time of the next scheduled event.
The use case I have in mind is a SystemC hosting where the event loop is:
while (more events) {
wait(time_to_next_event or wakeup)
setCurTick
service events at this time
}
where the 'wait' needs to be woken up if time_to_next_event becomes shorter
due to a scheduled event from SystemC arriving in a gem5 object.
Requiring 'wakeup' to be called is a more efficient interface than
requiring all gem5 event scheduling actions to affect the host scheduler.
This interface could be located elsewhere, say on another global object,
or by being passed by the host scheduler to objects which will schedule
such events, but it seems cleanest to put it on EventQueue as it is
actually a signal to the queue.
EventQueue::wakeup is called for async_event events on event queue 0 as
it's only important that *some* queue be triggered for such events.

This patch adds a Logger class encapsulating dprintf. This allows
variants of DPRINTF logging to be constructed and substituted in
place of the default behaviour.
The Logger provides a logMessage(when, name, format, ...) member
function like Trace::dprintf and a getOstream member function to
use a raw ostream for logging.
A class OstreamLogger is provided which generates the customary
debugging output with Trace::OstreamLogger::logMessage being the
old Trace::dprintf.

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 transitions the stat Node and its derived classes from
the ad-hoc RefCountingPtr to the c++11 shared_ptr. There are no
changes in behaviour, and the code modifications are mainly replacing
"new" with "make_shared".

This patch transitions the EthPacketData from the ad-hoc
RefCountingPtr to the c++11 shared_ptr. There are no changes in
behaviour, and the code modifications are mainly replacing "new" with
"make_shared".
The bool casting operator for the shared_ptr is explicit, and we must
therefore either cast it, compare it to NULL (p != nullptr), double
negate it (!!p) or do a (p ? true : false).

Add the ability to build libgem5 without embedded Python or the
ability to configure with Python.
This is a prelude to a patch to allow config.ini files to be loaded
into libgem5 using only C++ which would make embedding gem5 within
other simulation systems easier.
This adds a few registration interfaces to things which cross
between Python and C++. Namely: stats dumping and SimObject resolving
|
|
The validity check is being changed from < to <= since the end of the range
is considered to be a part of it.

Another bunch of issues addressed.
|
|
Add some missing initialisation, and fix a handful benign resource
leaks (including some false positives).
|
|
Adds two public domain algorithms for determining number of set bits and also
whether a value is a power of two, uses the builtin that is available in GCC
and clang for popcount.
|
|
This patch does a bit of housekeeping on the string helper functions
and relies on the C++11 standard library where possible. It also does
away with our custom string hash as an implementation is already part
of the standard library.
|
|
Add an accessor to IniFile to list all the sections in the file.
|
|
A bit of revamping to get the CP annotate functionality to compile.
|
|
This patch ensures we adhere to the normal ostream usage rules, and
restore the flags after modifying them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Static analysis unearther a bunch of uninitialised variables and
members, and this patch addresses the problem. In all cases these
omissions seem benign in the end, but at least fixing them means less
false positives next time round.
|

This patch changes the random number generator from the in-house
Mersenne twister to an implementation relying entirely on C++11 STL.
The format for the checkpointing of the twister is simplified. As the
functionality was never used this should not matter. Note that this
patch does not actually make use of the checkpointing
functionality. As the random number generator is not thread safe, it
may be sensible to create one generator per thread, system, or even
object. Until this is decided the status quo is maintained in that no
generator state is part of the checkpoint.
|
|
This patch ensures the functions can be used on const variables.
|
|
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.
|
|
Add the macros M5_ATTR_FINAL and M5_ATTR_OVERRIDE which are defined to
final and override respectively if supported by the compiler. This is
done to allow a smooth transition to gcc >= 4.7.
|
|
If a bit field in a bit union specified as Bitfield<LSB, MSB> instead
of Bitfield<MSB, LSB> the code silently fails and the field is read as
zero. This changeset introduces a static assert that tests, at compile
time, that the bit order is correct.
|
|
The M5_PRAGMA_NORETURN macro was only used in for
__exit_message. Since the macro only holds a stub definition and all
functions with noreturn semantics use the M5_ATTR_NORETURN, this
macros is completely redundant.
|
|
RefCountingPtr is sometimes forward declared to avoid having to
include refcnt.hh. This does not work since we typically return
instances of RefCountingPtr rather than references to instances. The
only reason this currently works is that we include refcnt.hh in
cprintf.hh, which "leaks" the header to most other source files. This
changeset replaces such forward declarations with an include of
refcnt.hh.

A bit of pruning

This patch contains a new CPU model named `Minor'. Minor models a four
stage in-order execution pipeline (fetch lines, decompose into
macroops, decompose macroops into microops, execute).
The model was developed to support the ARM ISA but should be fixable
to support all the remaining gem5 ISAs. It currently also works for
Alpha, and regressions are included for ARM and Alpha (including Linux
boot).
Documentation for the model can be found in src/doc/inside-minor.doxygen and
its internal operations can be visualised using the Minorview tool
utils/minorview.py.
Minor was designed to be fairly simple and not to engage in a lot of
instruction annotation. As such, it currently has very few gathered
stats and may lack other gem5 features.
Minor is faster than the o3 model. Sample results:
Benchmark | Stat host_seconds (s)
---------------+--------v--------v--------
(on ARM, opt) | simple | o3 | minor
| timing | timing | timing
---------------+--------+--------+--------

this operator uses memcmp() to detect if two EthAddr object have the same
address, however memcmp() will return 0 if all bytes are equal. operator==
returns the return value of memcmp() to indicate whether or not two
address are equal. this is incorrect as it will always give the opposite of
the intended behavior. this patch fixes that problem.
|
|
per the IEEE 802 spec:
1) fixed broadcast() to ensure that all bytes are equal to 0xff.
2) fixed unicast() to ensure that bit 0 of the first byte is equal to 0
3) fixed multicast() to ensure that bit 0 of the first byte is equal to 1, and
that it is not a broadcast.
also the constructors in EthAddr are fixed so that all bytes of data are
initialized.

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.

This source for stats binds an object and a method / function from the object
to a stats object. This allows pulling out stats from object methods without
needing to go through a global, or static shim.
Syntax is somewhat unpleasant, but the templates and method pointer type
specification were quite tricky. Interface is very clean though; and similar
to .functor

Without this declaration, new clangs will complain about this value
being unused. It has no explicit use in the codebase, but it can be
useful to turn on all debugging flags while in a debugger to greatly
increase simulator verbosity.
|
|
The calling thread is undefined when the PollQueue services events.
This implies that PollEvents need to handle the case where they are
processed from a different thread than the thread that created the
event. This changeset adds temporary event queue migrations to the VNC
server, the ethernet tap device, and the terminal to protect them from
inter-thread calls.
|

This patch fixes the unit used in all error messages.
|
|
This snippet can be used to replace if + {panics, fatals, asserts} constructs.
The idea is to have both the condition checking and a verbose printout in a single statement. The interface is as follows:
panic_if(foo != bar, "These should be equal: foo %i bar %i", foo, bar);
fatal_if(foo != bar, "These should be equal: foo %i bar %i", foo, bar);
chatty_assert(foo == bar, "These should be equal: foo %i bar %i", foo, bar);
|
|
Small fixes to appease recent clang versions.
|
|
Currently fatal() ends the simulation in a normal fashion. This results in
the call stack getting lost when using a debugger and it is not always
possible to debug the simulation just from the information provided by the
printed error message. Even though the error is likely due to a user's fault,
the information available should not be thrown away. Hence, this patch to
call abort() from fatal().

gem5 makes the incorrect assumption that by binding a socket, it
effectively has allocated a port. Linux only allocates ports once you call
listen on the given socket, not when you call bind. So even if the port was
free when bind was called, another process (gem5 instance) could race in
between the bind & listen calls and steal the port. In the current code, if
the call to bind fails due to the port being in use (EADDRINUSE), gem5 retries
for a different port. However if listen fails, gem5 just panics. The fix is
testing the return value of listen and re-trying if it was due to EADDRINUSE.

Note: AArch64 and AArch32 interworking is not supported. If you use an AArch64
kernel you are restricted to AArch64 user-mode binaries. This will be addressed
in a later patch.
Note: Virtualization is only supported in AArch32 mode. This will also be fixed
in a later patch.

This patch adds a function to the HistStor class for adding two histograms.
This functionality is required for Ruby. It also adds support for printing
histograms in a single line.
|

There is a race between enabling asynchronous IO for a file descriptor
and IO events happening on that descriptor. A SIGIO won't normally be
delivered if an event is pending when asynchronous IO is
enabled. Instead, the signal will be raised the next time there is an
event on the FD. This changeset simulates a SIGIO by setting the
async_io flag when setting up asynchronous IO for an FD. This causes
the main event loop to poll all file descriptors to check for pending
IO. As a consequence of this, the old SIGALRM hack should no longer be
needed and is therefore removed.
