2013-01-24branch predictor: move out of o3 and inorder cpusNilay Vaish ext:(%2C%20Timothy%20Jones%20%3Ctimothy.jones%40cl.cam.ac.uk%3E)
This patch moves the branch predictor files in the o3 and inorder directories to src/cpu/pred. This allows sharing the branch predictor across different cpu models. This patch was originally posted by Timothy Jones in July 2010 but never made it to the repository. --HG-- rename : src/cpu/o3/bpred_unit.cc => src/cpu/pred/bpred_unit.cc rename : src/cpu/o3/bpred_unit.hh => src/cpu/pred/bpred_unit.hh rename : src/cpu/o3/bpred_unit_impl.hh => src/cpu/pred/bpred_unit_impl.hh rename : src/cpu/o3/sat_counter.hh => src/cpu/pred/sat_counter.hh
2012-02-13BP: Fix several Branch Predictor issues.Mrinmoy Ghosh
1. Updates the Branch Predictor correctly to the state just after a mispredicted branch, if a squash occurs. 2. If a BTB does not find an entry, the branch is predicted not taken. The global history is modified to correctly reflect this prediction. 3. Local history is now updated at the fetch stage instead of execute stage. 4. In the Update stage of the branch predictor the local predictors are now correctly updated according to the state of local history during fetch stage. This patch also improves performance by as much as 17% on some benchmarks
2011-04-15trace: reimplement the DTRACE function so it doesn't use a vectorNathan Binkert
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
