Try to decrease indentation, and remove some redundant FullSystem checks.
2012-01-28O3 CPU LSQ: Implement TSONilay Vaish
This patch makes O3's LSQ maintain total order between stores. Essentially only the store at the head of the store buffer is allowed to be in flight. Only after that store completes, the next store is issued to the memory system. By default, the x86 architecture will have TSO.

2012-01-17MEM: Separate queries for snooping and address rangesAndreas Hansson
This patch simplifies the address-range determination mechanism and also unifies the naming across ports and devices. It further splits the queries for determining if a port is snooping and what address ranges it responds to (aiming towards a separation of cache-maintenance ports and pure memory-mapped ports). Default behaviours are such that most ports do not have to define isSnooping, and master ports need not implement getAddrRanges.
2012-01-17MEM: Simplify ports by removing EventManagerAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the inheritance of EventManager from the ports and moves all responsibility for event queues to the owner. Eventually the event manager should be the interface block, which could either be the structural owner or a subblock like a LSQ in the O3 CPU for example.
2012-01-17CPU: Moving towards a more general port across CPU modelsAndreas Hansson
This patch performs minimal changes to move the instruction and data ports from specialised subclasses to the base CPU (to the largest degree possible). Ultimately it servers to make the CPU(s) have a well-defined interface to the memory sub-system.
2012-01-17MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural portsAndreas Hansson
Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data port in a port proxy. The following replacements are made: FunctionalPort > PortProxy TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy --HG-- rename : src/mem/vport.cc => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/vport.hh => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.hh rename : src/mem/translating_port.cc => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/translating_port.hh => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.hh

2012-01-09MAC: Make gem5 compile and run on MacOSX 10.7.2Andreas Hansson
Adaptations to make gem5 compile and run on OSX 10.7.2, with a stock gcc 4.2.1 and the remaining dependencies from macports, i.e. python 2.7,.2 swig 2.0.4, mercurial 2.0. The changes include an adaptation of the SConstruct to handle non-library linker flags, and Darwin-specific code to find the memory usage of gem5. A number of Ruby files relied on ambigious uint (without the 32 suffix) which caused compilation errors.

2011-12-01O3: Remove hardcoded tgts_per_mshr in O3CPU.py.Chander Sudanthi
There are two lines in O3CPU.py that set the dcache and icache tgts_per_mshr to 20, ignoring any pre-configured value of tgts_per_mshr. This patch removes these hardcoded lines from O3CPU.py and sets the default L1 cache mshr targets to 20. --HG-- extra : rebase_source : 6f92d950e90496a3102967442814e97dc84db08b

2011-09-26LSQ: Moved a couple of lines to enable O3 + RubyNilay Vaish
This patch makes O3 CPU work along with the Ruby memory model. Ruby overwrites the senderState pointer with another pointer. The pointer is restored only when Ruby gets done with the packet. LSQ makes use of senderState just after sendTiming() returns. But the dynamic_cast returns a NULL pointer since Ruby's senderState pointer is from a different class. Storing the senderState pointer before calling sendTiming() does away with the problem.
2011-09-22event: minor cleanupSteve Reinhardt
Initialize flags via the Event constructor instead of calling setFlags() in the body of the derived class's constructor. I forget exactly why, but this made life easier when implementing multi-queue support. Also rename Event::getFlags() to isFlagSet() to better match common usage, and get rid of some unused Event methods.
2011-09-19Syscall: Make the syscall function available in both SE and FS modes.Gabe Black
In FS mode the syscall function will panic, but the interface will be consistent and code which calls syscall can be compiled in. This will allow, for instance, instructions that use syscall to be built unconditionally but then not returned by the decoder.
2011-09-13LSQ: Only trigger a memory violation with a load/load if the value changes.Ali Saidi
Only create a memory ordering violation when the value could have changed between two subsequent loads, instead of just when loads go out-of-order to the same address. While not very common in the case of Alpha, with an architecture with a hardware table walker this can happen reasonably frequently beacuse a translation will miss and start a table walk and before the CPU re-schedules the faulting instruction another one will pass it to the same address (or cache block depending on the dendency checking). This patch has been tested with a couple of self-checking hand crafted programs to stress ordering between two cores. The performance improvement on SPEC benchmarks can be substantial (2-10%).
2011-09-09StaticInst: Merge StaticInst and StaticInstBase.Gabe Black
Having two StaticInst classes, one nominally ISA dependent and the other ISA dependent, has not been historically useful and makes the StaticInst class more complicated that it needs to be. This change merges StaticInstBase into StaticInst.
2011-09-09Decode: Pull instruction decoding out of the StaticInst class into its own.Gabe Black
This change pulls the instruction decoding machinery (including caches) out of the StaticInst class and puts it into its own class. This has a few intrinsic benefits. First, the StaticInst code, which has gotten to be quite large, gets simpler. Second, the code that handles decode caching is now separated out into its own component and can be looked at in isolation, making it easier to understand. I took the opportunity to restructure the code a bit which will hopefully also help. Beyond that, this change also lays some ground work for each ISA to have its own, potentially stateful decode object. We'd be able to include less contextualizing information in the ExtMachInst objects since that context would be applied at the decoder. Also, the decoder could "know" ahead of time that all the instructions it's going to see are going to be, for instance, 64 bit mode, and it will have one less thing to check when it decodes them. Because the decode caching mechanism has been separated out, it's now possible to have multiple caches which correspond to different types of decoding context. Having one cache for each element of the cross product of different configurations may become prohibitive, so it may be desirable to clear out the cache when relatively static state changes and not to have one for each setting. Because the decode function is no longer universally accessible as a static member of the StaticInst class, a new function was added to the ThreadContexts that returns the applicable decode object.
2011-08-19LSQ: Set store predictor to periodically clear itself as recommended in the ↵Ali Saidi
storesets paper. This patch improves performance by as much as 10% on some spec benchmarks.
2011-08-19Fix bugs due to interaction between SEV instructions and O3 pipelineGeoffrey Blake
SEV instructions were originally implemented to cause asynchronous squashes via the generateTCSquash() function in the O3 pipeline when updating the SEV_MAILBOX miscReg. This caused race conditions between CPUs in an MP system that would lead to a pipeline either going inactive indefinitely or not being able to commit squashed instructions. Fixed SEV instructions to behave like interrupts and cause synchronous sqaushes inside the pipeline, eliminating the race conditions. Also fixed up the semantics of the WFE instruction to behave as documented in the ARMv7 ISA description to not sleep if SEV_MAILBOX=1 or unmasked interrupts are pending.
