2017-12-04base: Rework the trie dump function to accept a different ostream.Gabe Black
It might often be useful to write output to cout when dumping a trie, but sometimes it might be useful to dump ot to something else like a string stream instead.

2017-12-04tests: Remove trietest's dependence on cprintf.Gabe Black
Dumping the structure of the tries being constructed was useful for debugging when the trie data structure was being developed, but the output can't be automatically verified easily, and what's considered correct depends on the specific implementation of the trie itself. To make some of the earlier tests more meaningful, additional lookups were added which verified that the correct values were returned when the nodes of the trie were in particular arrangements.

2017-10-30base: Fix forcing loopback only binding for listeners.Gabe Black
Despite online documentation, the type used for sin_addr.s_addr is not actually an unsigned long, it is an in_addr_t. When an unsigned long is a 64 bit value, the endian conversion moves the relevant bits of the 32 bit in_addr_t to positions which are truncated away. This forces the value to 0 which means to bind to any interface, the opposite of the intended effect.

2017-05-12misc: Make the remote GDB stub more resilient to bad connections.Gabe Black
Currently, if the remote gdb stub fails to read a byte from an incoming packet because the connection has been dropped, the read call will return anyway and the calling code will have no way to know something bad happened. It might reattempt the read over and over again waiting for some particular byte, doomed to never make forward progress. This change modifies the remote GDB code so that if a read or write call fails, it will instead detach from the debugger and continue. Before this change, When simulating a port scan, ie connecting to the debugger port and then immediately dropping the connection using this command: nc -v -n -z -w 1 127.0.0.1 7000 gem5 would enter the previously described death spiral. After it, gem5 detaches from the bad connection and resumes execution. Subsequently attaching with gdb was successful. This code is written in a C centric style, and would benefit from some refactoring.

2017-02-27base: Refactor logging to make log level selection cleanerAndreas Sandberg
It's currently possible to change the log level in gem5 by tweaking a set of global variables. These variables are currently exposed to Python using SWIG. This mechanism is far from ideal for two reasons: First, changing the log level requires that the Python world enables or disables individual levels. Ideally, this should be a single call where a log level is selected. Second, exporting global variables is poorly supported by most Python frameworks. SWIG puts variables in their own namespace and PyBind doesn't seem to support it at all. This changeset refactors the logging code to create a more abstract interface. Each log level is associated with an instance of a Logger class. This class contains common functionality, an enable flag, and a verbose flag. Available LogLevels are described by the LogLevel class. Lower log levels are used for more critical messages (PANIC being level 0) and higher levels for less critical messages. The highest log level that is printed is controlled by calling Logger:setLevel().

2016-03-17base: add symbol support for dynamic librariesBrandon Potter
Libraries are loaded into the process address space using the mmap system call. Conveniently, this happens to be a good time to update the process symbol table with the library's incoming symbols so we handle the table update from within the system call. This works just like an application's normal symbols. The only difference between a dynamic library and a main executable is when the symbol table update occurs. The symbol table update for an executable happens at program load time and is finished before the process ever begins executing. Since dynamic linking happens at runtime, the symbol loading happens after the library is first loaded into the process address space. The library binary is examined at this time for a symbol section and that section is parsed for symbol types with specific bindings (global, local, weak). Subsequently, these symbols are added to the table and are available for use by gem5 for things like trace generation. Checkpointing should work just as it did previously. The address space (and therefore the library) will be recorded and the symbol table will be entirely recorded. (It's not possible to do anything clever like checkpoint a program and then load the program back with different libraries with LD_LIBRARY_PATH, because the library becomes part of the address space after being loaded.)

2015-11-27base: Add support for changing output directoriesAndreas Sandberg
This changeset adds support for changing the simulator output directory. This can be useful when the simulation goes through several stages (e.g., a warming phase, a simulation phase, and a verification phase) since it allows the output from each stage to be located in a different directory. Relocation is done by calling core.setOutputDir() from Python or simout.setOutputDirectory() from C++. This change affects several parts of the design of the gem5's output subsystem. First, files returned by an OutputDirectory instance (e.g., simout) are of the type OutputStream instead of a std::ostream. This allows us to do some more book keeping and control re-opening of files when the output directory is changed. Second, new subdirectories are OutputDirectory instances, which should be used to create files in that sub-directory.
