2015-02-11sim: Move the BaseTLB to src/arch/generic/Andreas Sandberg
The TLB-related code is generally architecture dependent and should live in the arch directory to signify that. --HG-- rename : src/sim/BaseTLB.py => src/arch/generic/BaseTLB.py rename : src/sim/tlb.cc => src/arch/generic/tlb.cc rename : src/sim/tlb.hh => src/arch/generic/tlb.hh
2014-09-19arch: Pass faults by const reference where possibleAndreas Hansson
This patch changes how faults are passed between methods in an attempt to copy as few reference-counting pointer instances as possible. This should avoid unecessary copies being created, contributing to the increment/decrement of the reference counters.
2014-04-23cpu: Fix setTranslateLatency() bug for squashed instructionsMitchell Hayenga
setTranslateLatency could sometimes improperly access a deleted request packet after an instruction was squashed.
2014-01-24mem: track per-request latencies and access depths in the cache hierarchyMatt Horsnell
Add some values and methods to the request object to track the translation and access latency for a request and which level of the cache hierarchy responded to the request.
2012-09-25ARM: Squash outstanding walks when instructions are squashed.Ali Saidi
2011-08-07Translation: Use a pointer type as the template argument.Gabe Black
This allows regular pointers and reference counted pointers without having to use any shim structures or other tricks.
2011-02-11O3: Enhance data address translation by supporting hardware page table walkers.Giacomo Gabrielli
Some ISAs (like ARM) relies on hardware page table walkers. For those ISAs, when a TLB miss occurs, initiateTranslation() can return with NoFault but with the translation unfinished. Instructions experiencing a delayed translation due to a hardware page table walk are deferred until the translation completes and kept into the IQ. In order to keep track of them, the IQ has been augmented with a queue of the outstanding delayed memory instructions. When their translation completes, instructions are re-executed (only their initiateAccess() was already executed; their DTB translation is now skipped). The IEW stage has been modified to support such a 2-pass execution.
2010-09-13Faults: Pass the StaticInst involved, if any, to a Fault's invoke method.Gabe Black
Also move the "Fault" reference counted pointer type into a separate file, sim/fault.hh. It would be better to name this less similarly to sim/faults.hh to reduce confusion, but fault.hh matches the name of the type. We could change Fault to FaultPtr to match other pointer types, and then changing the name of the file would make more sense.
2010-03-25CPU: Added comments to address translation classes.Timothy M. Jones
2010-02-12BaseDynInst: Make the TLB translation timing instead of atomic.Timothy M. Jones
This initiates a timing translation and passes the read or write on to the processor before waiting for it to finish. Once the translation is finished, the instruction's state is updated via the 'finish' function. A new DataTranslation class is created to handle this. The idea is taken from the implementation of timing translations in TimingSimpleCPU by Gabe Black. This patch also separates out the timing translations from this CPU and uses the new DataTranslation class.
