Starting with version 3, scons imposes using the print function instead
of the print statement in code it processes. To get things building
again, this change moves all python code within gem5 to use the
function version. Another change by another author separately made this
same change to the site_tools and site_init.py files.

Equips cpu models with a method to generate the cpu node.
Note: even though official documentation requires that CPU ids start
counting from 0 in every cluster, GEM5 requires a globally unique cpu_id.

Before this CL, the addTwoLevelCacheHierarchy() function uses the
default L2XBar class as the interconnect between CPU L1 caches and
L2. This CL allows passing a user-defined bus to overwrite the
default L2XBar by adding an optional argument to the function.

The BaseCPU.createThreads() method currently overrides the BaseCPU.isa
parameter. This is sometimes undesirable. Change the behavior so that
the default value for the isa parameter is the empty list and teach
createThreads() to only override the ISA if none has been specified.

Add the power_gating_on_idle option to control whether a core
automatically enters the power gated state. The default behaviour is
to transition to clock gated when idle, but not to power gated. When
this option is set to true, the core automatically transitions to the
power gated state after a configurable latency.

Use the PyBind11 wrapping infrastructure instead of SWIG to generate
wrappers for functionality that needs to be exported to Python. This
has several benefits:
* PyBind11 can be redistributed with gem5, which means that we have
full control of the version used. This avoid a large number of
hard-to-debug SWIG issues we have seen in the past.
* PyBind11 doesn't rely on a custom C++ parser, instead it relies on
wrappers being explicitly declared in C++. The leads to slightly
more boiler-plate code in manually created wrappers, but doesn't
doesn't increase the overall code size. A big benefit is that this
avoids strange compilation errors when SWIG doesn't understand
modern language features.
* Unlike SWIG, there is no risk that the wrapper code incorporates
incorrect type casts (this has happened on numerous occasions in
the past) since these will result in compile-time errors.
As a part of this change, the mechanism to define exported methods has
been redesigned slightly. New methods can be exported either by
declaring them in the SimObject declaration and decorating them with
the cxxMethod decorator or by adding an instance of
PyBindMethod/PyBindProperty to the cxx_exports class variable. The
decorator has the added benefit of making it possible to add a
docstring and naming the method's parameters.
The new wrappers have the following known issues:
* Global events can't be memory managed correctly. This was the
case in SWIG as well.

This changeset adds functionality that allows system calls to retry without
affecting thread context state such as the program counter or register values
for the associated thread context (when system calls return with a retry
fault).
This functionality is needed to solve problems with blocking system calls
in multi-process or multi-threaded simulations where information is passed
between processes/threads. Blocking system calls can cause deadlock because
the simulator itself is single threaded. There is only a single thread
servicing the event queue which can cause deadlock if the thread hits a
blocking system call instruction.
To illustrate the problem, consider two processes using the producer/consumer
sharing model. The processes can use file descriptors and the read and write
calls to pass information to one another. If the consumer calls the blocking
read system call before the producer has produced anything, the call will
block the event queue (while executing the system call instruction) and
deadlock the simulation.
The solution implemented in this changeset is to recognize that the system
calls will block and then generate a special retry fault. The fault will
be sent back up through the function call chain until it is exposed to the
cpu model's pipeline where the fault becomes visible. The fault will trigger
the cpu model to replay the instruction at a future tick where the call has
a chance to succeed without actually going into a blocking state.
In subsequent patches, we recognize that a syscall will block by calling a
non-blocking poll (from inside the system call implementation) and checking
for events. When events show up during the poll, it signifies that the call
would not have blocked and the syscall is allowed to proceed (calling an
underlying host system call if necessary). If no events are returned from the
poll, we generate the fault and try the instruction for the thread context
at a distant tick. Note that retrying every tick is not efficient.
As an aside, the simulator has some multi-threading support for the event
queue, but it is not used by default and needs work. Even if the event queue
was completely multi-threaded, meaning that there is a hardware thread on
the host servicing a single simulator thread contexts with a 1:1 mapping
between them, it's still possible to run into deadlock due to the event queue
barriers on quantum boundaries. The solution of replaying at a later tick
is the simplest solution and solves the problem generally.

First of five patches adding RISC-V to GEM5. This patch introduces the
base 64-bit ISA (RV64I) in src/arch/riscv for use with syscall emulation.
The multiply, floating point, and atomic memory instructions will be added
in additional patches, as well as support for more detailed CPU models.
The loader is also modified to be able to parse RISC-V ELF files, and a
"Hello world\!" example for RISC-V is added to test-progs.
Patch 2 will implement the multiply extension, RV64M; patch 3 will implement
the floating point (single- and double-precision) extensions, RV64FD;
patch 4 will implement the atomic memory instructions, RV64A, and patch 5
will add support for timing, minor, and detailed CPU models that is missing
from the first four patches (such as handling locked memory).

This patch adds the ability for the simulator to query the number of

This patch introduces a few subclasses to the CoherentXBar and
NoncoherentXBar to distinguish the different uses in the system. We
use the crossbar in a wide range of places: interfacing cores to the
L2, as a system interconnect, connecting I/O and peripherals,
etc. Needless to say, these crossbars have very different performance,
and the clock frequency alone is not enough to distinguish these
scenarios.
Instead of trying to capture every possible case, this patch
introduces dedicated subclasses for the three primary use-cases:
L2XBar, SystemXBar and IOXbar. More can be added if needed, and the
defaults can be overridden.

This patch changes how the MMU and table walkers are created such that
a single port is used to connect the MMU and the TLBs to the memory
system. Previously two ports were needed as there are two table walker
objects (stage one and stage two), and they both had a port. Now the
port itself is moved to the Stage2MMU, and each TableWalker is simply
using the port from the parent.
By using the same port we also remove the need for having an
additional crossbar joining the two ports before the walker cache or
the L2. This simplifies the creation of the CPU cache topology in
BaseCPU.py considerably. Moreover, for naming and symmetry reasons,
the TLB walker port is connected through the stage-one table walker
thus making the naming identical to x86. Along the same line, we use
the stage-one table walker to generate the master id that is used by
all TLB-related requests.

This patch changes the name of the Bus classes to XBar to better

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.

The branch predictor is guarded by having either the in-order or
out-of-order CPU as one of the available CPU models and therefore
should not be used in the BaseCPU. This patch moves the parameter to
the relevant CPU classes.

This patch adds the notion of source- and derived-clock domains to the
ClockedObjects. As such, all clock information is moved to the clock
domain, and the ClockedObjects are grouped into domains.
The clock domains are either source domains, with a specific clock
period, or derived domains that have a parent domain and a divider
(potentially chained). For piece of logic that runs at a derived clock
(a ratio of the clock its parent is running at) the necessary derived
clock domain is created from its corresponding parent clock
domain. For now, the derived clock domain only supports a divider,
thus ensuring a lower speed compared to its parent. Multiplier
functionality implies a PLL logic that has not been modelled yet
(create a separate clock instead).
The clock domains should be used as a mechanism to provide a
controllable clock source that affects clock for every clocked object
lying beneath it. The clock of the domain can (in a future patch) be
controlled by a handler responsible for dynamic frequency scaling of
the respective clock domains.
All the config scripts have been retro-fitted with clock domains. For
the System a default SrcClockDomain is created. For CPUs that run at a
different speed than the system, there is a seperate clock domain
created. This domain incorporates the CPU and the associated
caches. As before, Ruby runs under its own clock domain.
The clock period of all domains are pre-computed, such that no virtual
functions or multiplications are needed when calling
clockPeriod. Instead, the clock period is pre-computed when any
changes occur. For this to be possible, each clock domain tracks its
children.
|
|
This patch removes the explicit setting of the clock period for
certain instances of CoherentBus, NonCoherentBus and IOCache where the
specified clock is same as the default value of the system clock. As
all the values used are the defaults, there are no performance
changes. There are similar cases where the toL2Bus is set to use the
parent CPU clock which is already the default behaviour.
The main motivation for these simplifications is to ease the
introduction of clock domains.

Currently, the only way to get a CPU to stop after a fixed number of
instructions/loads is to set a property on the CPU that causes a
SimLoopExitEvent to be scheduled when the CPU is constructed. This is
clearly not ideal in cases where the simulation script wants the CPU
to stop at multiple instruction counts (e.g., SimPoint generation).
This changeset adds the methods scheduleInstStop() and
scheduleLoadStop() to the BaseCPU. These methods are exported to
Python and are designed to be used from the simulation script. By
using these methods instead of the old properties, a simulation script
can schedule a stop at any point during simulation or schedule
multiple stops. The number of instructions specified when scheduling a
stop is relative to the current point of execution.

This patch is based on http://reviews.m5sim.org/r/1474/ originally written by
Mitch Hayenga. Basic block vectors are generated (simpoint.bb.gz in simout
folder) based on start and end addresses of basic blocks.
Some comments to the original patch are addressed and hooks are added to create
and resume from checkpoints based on instruction counts dictated by external
SimPoint analysis tools.
SimPoint creation/resuming options will be implemented as a separate patch.

|
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.
|
|
The configuration scripts currently hard-code the requirements of each
CPU. This is clearly not optimal as it makes writing new configuration
scripts painful and adding new CPU models requires existing scripts to
be updated. This patch adds the following class methods to the base
CPU and all relevant CPUs:
* memory_mode -- Return a string describing the current memory mode
(invalid/atomic/timing).
* require_caches -- Does the CPU model require caches?
* support_take_over -- Does the CPU support CPU handover?

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.

The defer_registration parameter is used to prevent a CPU from
initializing at startup, leaving it in the "switched out" mode. The
name of this parameter (and the help string) is confusing. This patch
renames it to switched_out, which should be more descriptive.
|
|
This patch introduces the following sanity checks when switching
between CPUs:
* Check that the set of new and old CPUs do not overlap. Having an
overlap between the set of new CPUs and the set of old CPUs is
currently not supported. Doing such a switch used to result in the
following assertion error:
BaseCPU::takeOverFrom(BaseCPU*): \
Assertion `!new_itb_port->isConnected()' failed.
* Check that all new CPUs are in the switched out state.
* Check that all old CPUs are in the switched in state.

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.

When casting objects in the generated SWIG interfaces, SWIG uses
classical C-style casts ( (Foo *)bar; ). In some cases, this can
degenerate into the equivalent of a reinterpret_cast (mainly if only a
forward declaration of the type is available). This usually works for
most compilers, but it is known to break if multiple inheritance is
used anywhere in the object hierarchy.
This patch introduces the cxx_header attribute to Python SimObject
definitions, which should be used to specify a header to include in
the SWIG interface. The header should include the declaration of the
wrapped object. We currently don't enforce header the use of the
header attribute, but a warning will be generated for objects that do
not use it.

This patch changes the CoherentBus between the L1s and L2 to use the
CPU clock and also four times the width compared to the default
bus. The parameters are not intending to fit every single scenario,
but rather serve as a better startingpoint than what we previously
had.
Note that the scripts that do not use the addTwoLevelCacheHiearchy are
not affected by this change.

This patch addresses the comments and feedback on the preceding patch
that reworks the clocks and now more clearly shows where cycles
(relative cycle counts) are used to express time.
Instead of bumping the existing patch I chose to make this a separate
patch, merely to try and focus the discussion around a smaller set of
changes. The two patches will be pushed together though.
This changes done as part of this patch are mostly following directly
from the introduction of the wrapper class, and change enough code to
make things compile and run again. There are definitely more places
where int/uint/Tick is still used to represent cycles, and it will
take some time to chase them all down. Similarly, a lot of parameters
should be changed from Param.Tick and Param.Unsigned to
Param.Cycles.
In addition, the use of curTick is questionable as there should not be
an absolute cycle. Potential solutions can be built on top of this
patch. There is a similar situation in the o3 CPU where
lastRunningCycle is currently counting in Cycles, and is still an
absolute time. More discussion to be had in other words.
An additional change that would be appropriate in the future is to
perform a similar wrapping of Tick and probably also introduce a
Ticks class along with suitable operators for all these classes.
|
|
This patch removes the overloading of the parameter, which seems both
redundant, and possibly incorrect.
The inorder CPU is particularly interesting as it uses a different
name for the parameter, and never make any use of it internally.
|
|
This patch moves the clock of the CPU, bus, and numerous devices to
the new class ClockedObject, that sits in between the SimObject and
MemObject in the class hierarchy. Although there are currently a fair
amount of MemObjects that do not make use of the clock, they
potentially should do so, e.g. the caches should at some point have
the same clock as the CPU, potentially with a 1:n ratio. This patch
does not introduce any new clock objects or object hierarchies
(clusters, clock domains etc), but is still a step in the direction of
having a more structured approach clock domains.
The most contentious part of this patch is the serialisation of clocks
that some of the modules (but not all) did previously. This
serialisation should not be needed as the clock is set through the
parameters even when restoring from the checkpoint. In other words,
the state is "stored" in the Python code that creates the modules.
The nextCycle methods are also simplified and the clock phase
parameter of the CPU is removed (this could be part of a clock object
once they are introduced).
|
|
This patch introduces a class hierarchy of buses, a non-coherent one,
and a coherent one, splitting the existing bus functionality. By doing
so it also enables further specialisation of the two types of buses.
A non-coherent bus connects a number of non-snooping masters and
slaves, and routes the request and response packets based on the
address. The request packets issued by the master connected to a
non-coherent bus could still snoop in caches attached to a coherent
bus, as is the case with the I/O bus and memory bus in most system
configurations. No snoops will, however, reach any master on the
non-coherent bus itself. The non-coherent bus can be used as a
template for modelling PCI, PCIe, and non-coherent AMBA and OCP buses,
and is typically used for the I/O buses.
A coherent bus connects a number of (potentially) snooping masters and
slaves, and routes the request and response packets based on the
address, and also forwards all requests to the snoopers and deals with
the snoop responses. The coherent bus can be used as a template for
modelling QPI, HyperTransport, ACE and coherent OCP buses, and is
typically used for the L1-to-L2 buses and as the main system
interconnect.
The configuration scripts are updated to use a NoncoherentBus for all
peripheral and I/O buses.
A bit of minor tidying up has also been done.

This patch prevents creation of interrupt controller for
cpus that will be switched in later
|
|
This patch classifies all ports in Python as either Master or Slave
and enforces a binding of master to slave. Conceptually, a master (such
as a CPU or DMA port) issues requests, and receives responses, and
conversely, a slave (such as a memory or a PIO device) receives
requests and sends back responses. Currently there is no
differentiation between coherent and non-coherent masters and slaves.
The classification as master/slave also involves splitting the dual
role port of the bus into a master and slave port and updating all the
system assembly scripts to use the appropriate port. Similarly, the
interrupt devices have to have their int_port split into a master and
slave port. The intdev and its children have minimal changes to
facilitate the extra port.
Note that this patch does not enforce any port typing in the C++
world, it merely ensures that the Python objects have a notion of the
port roles and are connected in an appropriate manner. This check is
carried when two ports are connected, e.g. bus.master =
memory.port. The following patches will make use of the
classifications and specialise the C++ ports into masters and slaves.
