2018-04-27sim,cpu,mem,arch: Introduced MasterInfo data structureGiacomo Travaglini
With this patch a gem5 System will store more info about its Masters. While it was previously keeping track of the Master name and Master ID only, it is now adding a per-Master pointer to the SimObject related to the Master. This will make it possible for a client to query a System for a Master using either the master's name or the master's pointer.

2016-04-07mem: Remove threadId from memory request classMitch Hayenga
In general, the ThreadID parameter is unnecessary in the memory system as the ContextID is what is used for the purposes of locks/wakeups. Since we allocate sequential ContextIDs for each thread on MT-enabled CPUs, ThreadID is unnecessary as the CPUs can identify the requesting thread through sideband info (SenderState / LSQ entries) or ContextID offset from the base ContextID for a cpu. This is a re-spin of 20264eb after the revert (bd1c6789) and includes some fixes of that commit.

2015-07-20ruby: more flexible ruby tester supportBrad Beckmann
This patch allows the ruby random tester to use ruby ports that may only support instr or data requests. This patch is similar to a previous changeset (8932:1b2c17565ac8) that was unfortunately broken by subsequent changesets. This current patch implements the support in a more straight-forward way. Since retries are now tested when running the ruby random tester, this patch splits up the retry and drain check behavior so that RubyPort children, such as the GPUCoalescer, can perform those operations correctly without having to duplicate code. Finally, the patch also includes better DPRINTFs for debugging the tester.
2015-10-12misc: Remove redundant compiler-specific definesAndreas Hansson

2015-07-10ruby: replace global g_abs_controls with per-RubySystem varBrandon Potter
This is another step in the process of removing global variables from Ruby to enable multiple RubySystem instances in a single simulation. The list of abstract controllers is per-RubySystem and should be represented that way, rather than as a global. Since this is the last remaining Ruby global variable, the src/mem/ruby/Common/Global.* files are also removed.
2015-03-02mem: Split port retry for all different packet classesAndreas Hansson
This patch fixes a long-standing isue with the port flow control. Before this patch the retry mechanism was shared between all different packet classes. As a result, a snoop response could get stuck behind a request waiting for a retry, even if the send/recv functions were split. This caused message-dependent deadlocks in stress-test scenarios. The patch splits the retry into one per packet (message) class. Thus, sendTimingReq has a corresponding recvReqRetry, sendTimingResp has recvRespRetry etc. Most of the changes to the code involve simply clarifying what type of request a specific object was accepting. The biggest change in functionality is in the cache downstream packet queue, facing the memory. This queue was shared by requests and snoop responses, and it is now split into two queues, each with their own flow control, but the same physical MasterPort. These changes fixes the previously seen deadlocks.
2014-12-02mem: Assume all dynamic packet data is array allocatedAndreas Hansson
This patch simplifies how we deal with dynamically allocated data in the packet, always assuming that it is array allocated, and hence should be array deallocated (delete[] as opposed to delete). The only uses of dataDynamic was in the Ruby testers. The ARRAY_DATA flag in the packet is removed accordingly. No defragmentation of the flags is done at this point, leaving a gap in the bit masks. As the last part the patch, it renames dataDynamicArray to dataDynamic.
2014-12-02mem: Add const getters for write packet dataAndreas Hansson
This patch takes a first step in tightening up how we use the data pointer in write packets. A const getter is added for the pointer itself (getConstPtr), and a number of member functions are also made const accordingly. In a range of places throughout the memory system the new member is used. The patch also removes the unused isReadWrite function.
2014-12-02mem: Remove null-check bypassing in Packet::getPtrAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the parameter that enables bypassing the null check in the Packet::getPtr method. A number of call sites assume the value to be non-null. The one odd case is the RubyTester, which issues zero-sized prefetches(!), and despite being reads they had no valid data pointer. This is now fixed, but the size oddity remains (unless anyone object or has any good suggestions). Finally, in the Ruby Sequencer, appropriate checks are made for flush packets as they have no valid data pointer.
2014-09-27misc: Fix a bunch of minor issues identified by static analysisAndreas Hansson

2014-09-03base: Use the global Mersenne twister throughoutAndreas Hansson
This patch tidies up random number generation to ensure that it is done consistently throughout the code base. In essence this involves a clean-up of Ruby, and some code simplifications in the traffic generator. As part of this patch a bunch of skewed distributions (off-by-one etc) have been fixed. Note that a single global random number generator is used, and that the object instantiation order will impact the behaviour (the sequence of numbers will be unaffected, but if module A calles random before module B then they would obviously see a different outcome). The dependency on the instantiation order is true in any case due to the execution-model of gem5, so we leave it as is. Also note that the global ranom generator is not thread safe at this point. Regressions using the memtest, TrafficGen or any Ruby tester are affected and will be updated accordingly.

There is another type Time in src/base class which results in a conflict.
2013-02-19mem: Add predecessor to SenderState base classAndreas Hansson
This patch adds a predecessor field to the SenderState base class to make the process of linking them up more uniform, and enable a traversal of the stack without knowing the specific type of the subclasses. There are a number of simplifications done as part of changing the SenderState, particularly in the RubyTest.
2013-01-17ruby: remove calls to g_system_ptr->getTime()Nilay Vaish
This patch further removes calls to g_system_ptr->getTime() where ever other clocked objects are available for providing current time.
2012-11-02sim: Include object header files in SWIG interfacesAndreas Sandberg
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.
2012-10-15Port: Add protocol-agnostic ports in the port hierarchyAndreas Hansson
This patch adds an additional level of ports in the inheritance hierarchy, separating out the protocol-specific and protocl-agnostic parts. All the functionality related to the binding of ports is now confined to use BaseMaster/BaseSlavePorts, and all the protocol-specific parts stay in the Master/SlavePort. In the future it will be possible to add other protocol-specific implementations. The functions used in the binding of ports, i.e. getMaster/SlavePort now use the base classes, and the index parameter is updated to use the PortID typedef with the symbolic InvalidPortID as the default.

2012-05-30Packet: Unify the use of PortID in packet and portAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the Packet::NodeID typedef and unifies it with the Port::PortId. The src and dest fields in the packet are used to hold a port id (e.g. in the bus), and thus the two should actually be the same. The typedef PortID is now global (in base/types.hh) and aligned with the ThreadID in terms of capitalisation and naming of the InvalidPortID constant. Before this patch, two flags were used for valid destination and source, rather than relying on a named value (InvalidPortID), and this is now redundant, as the src and dest field themselves are sufficient to tell whether the current value is a valid port identifier or not. Consequently, the VALID_SRC and VALID_DST are removed. As part of the cleaning up, a number of int parameters and local variables are updated to use PortID. Note that Ruby still has its own NodeID typedef. Furthermore, the MemObject getMaster/SlavePort still has an int idx parameter with a default value of -1 which should eventually change to PortID idx = InvalidPortID.
2012-05-01MEM: Separate requests and responses for timing accessesAndreas Hansson
This patch moves send/recvTiming and send/recvTimingSnoop from the Port base class to the MasterPort and SlavePort, and also splits them into separate member functions for requests and responses: send/recvTimingReq, send/recvTimingResp, and send/recvTimingSnoopReq, send/recvTimingSnoopResp. A master port sends requests and receives responses, and also receives snoop requests and sends snoop responses. A slave port has the reciprocal behaviour as it receives requests and sends responses, and sends snoop requests and receives snoop responses. For all MemObjects that have only master ports or slave ports (but not both), e.g. a CPU, or a PIO device, this patch merely adds more clarity to what kind of access is taking place. For example, a CPU port used to call sendTiming, and will now call sendTimingReq. Similarly, a response previously came back through recvTiming, which is now recvTimingResp. For the modules that have both master and slave ports, e.g. the bus, the behaviour was previously relying on branches based on pkt->isRequest(), and this is now replaced with a direct call to the apprioriate member function depending on the type of access. Please note that send/recvRetry is still shared by all the timing accessors and remains in the Port base class for now (to maintain the current bus functionality and avoid changing the statistics of all regressions). The packet queue is split into a MasterPort and SlavePort version to facilitate the use of the new timing accessors. All uses of the PacketQueue are updated accordingly. With this patch, the type of packet (request or response) is now well defined for each type of access, and asserts on pkt->isRequest() and pkt->isResponse() are now moved to the appropriate send member functions. It is also worth noting that sendTimingSnoopReq no longer returns a boolean, as the semantics do not alow snoop requests to be rejected or stalled. All these assumptions are now excplicitly part of the port interface itself.
2012-04-25MEM: Add the PortId type and a corresponding id field to PortAndreas Hansson
This patch introduces the PortId type, moves the definition of INVALID_PORT_ID to the Port class, and also gives every port an id to reflect the fact that each element in a vector port has an identifier/index. Previously the bus and Ruby testers (and potentially other users of the vector ports) added the id field in their port subclasses, and now this functionality is always present as it is moved to the base class.
2012-04-14Ruby: Use MasterPort base-class pointers where possibleAndreas Hansson
This patch simplifies future patches by changing the pointer type used in a number of the Ruby testers to use MasterPort instead of using a derived CpuPort class. There is no reason for using the more specialised pointers, and there is no longer a need to do any casting. With the latest changes to the tester, organising ports as readers and writes, things got a bit more complicated, and the "type" now had to be removed to be able to fall back to using MasterPort rather than CpuPort.
2012-04-14MEM: Remove the Broadcast destination from the packetAndreas Hansson
This patch simplifies the packet by removing the broadcast flag and instead more firmly relying on (and enforcing) the semantics of transactions in the classic memory system, i.e. request packets are routed from a master to a slave based on the address, and when they are created they have neither a valid source, nor destination. On their way to the slave, the request packet is updated with a source field for all modules that multiplex packets from multiple master (e.g. a bus). When a request packet is turned into a response packet (at the final slave), it moves the potentially populated source field to the destination field, and the response packet is routed through any multiplexing components back to the master based on the destination field. Modules that connect multiplexing components, such as caches and bridges store any existing source and destination field in the sender state as a stack (just as before). The packet constructor is simplified in that there is no longer a need to pass the Packet::Broadcast as the destination (this was always the case for the classic memory system). In the case of Ruby, rather than using the parameter to the constructor we now rely on setDest, as there is already another three-argument constructor in the packet class. In many places where the packet information was printed as part of DPRINTFs, request packets would be printed with a numeric "dest" that would always be -1 (Broadcast) and that field is now removed from the printing.
2012-04-14MEM: Separate snoops and normal memory requests/responsesAndreas Hansson
This patch introduces port access methods that separates snoop request/responses from normal memory request/responses. The differentiation is made for functional, atomic and timing accesses and builds on the introduction of master and slave ports. Before the introduction of this patch, the packets belonging to the different phases of the protocol (request -> [forwarded snoop request -> snoop response]* -> response) all use the same port access functions, even though the snoop packets flow in the opposite direction to the normal packet. That is, a coherent master sends normal request and receives responses, but receives snoop requests and sends snoop responses (vice versa for the slave). These two distinct phases now use different access functions, as described below. Starting with the functional access, a master sends a request to a slave through sendFunctional, and the request packet is turned into a response before the call returns. In a system without cache coherence, this is all that is needed from the functional interface. For the cache-coherent scenario, a slave also sends snoop requests to coherent masters through sendFunctionalSnoop, with responses returned within the same packet pointer. This is currently used by the bus and caches, and the LSQ of the O3 CPU. The send/recvFunctional and send/recvFunctionalSnoop are moved from the Port super class to the appropriate subclass. Atomic accesses follow the same flow as functional accesses, with request being sent from master to slave through sendAtomic. In the case of cache-coherent ports, a slave can send snoop requests to a master through sendAtomicSnoop. Just as for the functional access methods, the atomic send and receive member functions are moved to the appropriate subclasses. The timing access methods are different from the functional and atomic in that requests and responses are separated in time and send/recvTiming are used for both directions. Hence, a master uses sendTiming to send a request to a slave, and a slave uses sendTiming to send a response back to a master, at a later point in time. Snoop requests and responses travel in the opposite direction, similar to what happens in functional and atomic accesses. With the introduction of this patch, it is possible to determine the direction of packets in the bus, and no longer necessary to look for both a master and a slave port with the requested port id. In contrast to the normal recvFunctional, recvAtomic and recvTiming that are pure virtual functions, the recvFunctionalSnoop, recvAtomicSnoop and recvTimingSnoop have a default implementation that calls panic. This is to allow non-coherent master and slave ports to not implement these functions.

2012-03-30MEM: Introduce the master/slave port sub-classes in C++William Wang
This patch introduces the notion of a master and slave port in the C++ code, thus bringing the previous classification from the Python classes into the corresponding simulation objects and memory objects. The patch enables us to classify behaviours into the two bins and add assumptions and enfore compliance, also simplifying the two interfaces. As a starting point, isSnooping is confined to a master port, and getAddrRanges to slave ports. More of these specilisations are to come in later patches. The getPort function is not getMasterPort and getSlavePort, and returns a port reference rather than a pointer as NULL would never be a valid return value. The default implementation of these two functions is placed in MemObject, and calls fatal. The one drawback with this specific patch is that it requires some code duplication, e.g. QueuedPort becomes QueuedMasterPort and QueuedSlavePort, and BusPort becomes BusMasterPort and BusSlavePort (avoiding multiple inheritance). With the later introduction of the port interfaces, moving the functionality outside the port itself, a lot of the duplicated code will disappear again.
2012-02-24Ruby: Simplify tester ports by not using SimpleTimingPortAndreas Hansson
This patch simplfies the master ports used by RubyDirectedTester and RubyTester by avoiding the use of SimpleTimingPort. Neither tester made any use of the functionality offered by SimpleTimingPort besides a trivial implementation of recvFunctional (only snoops) and recvRangeChange (not relevant since there is only one master). The patch does not change or add any functionality, it merely makes the introduction of a master/slave port easier (in a future patch).
2012-02-24MEM: Move port creation to the memory object(s) constructionAndreas Hansson
This patch moves all port creation from the getPort method to be consistently done in the MemObject's constructor. This is possible thanks to the Swig interface passing the length of the vector ports. Previously there was a mix of: 1) creating the ports as members (at object construction time) and using getPort for the name resolution, or 2) dynamically creating the ports in the getPort call. This is now uniform. Furthermore, objects that would not be complete without a port have these ports as members rather than having pointers to dynamically allocated ports. This patch also enables an elaboration-time enumeration of all the ports in the system which can be used to determine the masterId.
2012-02-13MEM: Introduce the master/slave port roles in the Python classesAndreas Hansson
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.
2012-02-12mem: Add a master ID to each request object.Ali Saidi
This change adds a master id to each request object which can be used identify every device in the system that is capable of issuing a request.
