2018-01-09cpu: Add a NotAnInst flag to the BaseDynInst class.Gabe Black
This flag means that the instruction isn't an actual instruction, it's just a placeholder to carry a fault down a pipeline, for instance.

2017-12-22arch,cpu: "virtualize" the TLB interface.Gabe Black
CPUs have historically instantiated the architecture specific version of the TLBs to avoid a virtual function call, making them a little bit more dependent on what the current ISA is. Some simple performance measurement, the x86 twolf regression on the atomic CPU, shows that there isn't actually any performance benefit, and if anything the simulator goes slightly faster (although still within margin of error) when the TLB functions are virtual. This change switches everything outside of the architectures themselves to use the generic BaseTLB type, and then inside the ISA for them to cast that to their architecture specific type to call into architecture specific interfaces. The ARM TLB needed the most adjustment since it was using non-standard translation function signatures. Specifically, they all took an extra "type" parameter which defaulted to normal, and translateTiming returned a Fault. translateTiming actually doesn't need to return a Fault because everywhere that consumed it just stored it into a structure which it then deleted(?), and the fault is stored in the Translation object when the translation is done. A little more work is needed to fully obviate the arch/tlb.hh header, so the TheISA::TLB type is still visible outside of the ISAs. Specifically, the TlbEntry type is used in the generic PageTable which lives in src/mem.

2017-12-14misc: Updates for gcc7.2 for x86Jason Lowe-Power
GCC 7.2 is much stricter than previous GCC versions. The following changes are needed: * There is now a warning if there is an implicit fallthrough between two case statments. C++17 adds the [[fallthrough]]; declaration. However, to support non C++17 standards (i.e., C++11), we use M5_FALLTHROUGH. M5_FALLTHROUGH checks for [[fallthrough]] compliant C++17 compiler and if that doesn't exist, it defaults to nothing (no older compilers generate warnings). * The above resulted in a couple of bugs that were found. This is noted in the review request on gerrit. * throw() for dynamic exception specification is deprecated * There were a couple of new uninitialized variable warnings * Can no longer perform bitwise operations on a bool. * Must now include <functional> for std::function * Compiler bug for void* lambda.

2017-10-13cpu-o3: Avoid early checker verification for store conditionalsNikos Nikoleris
The O3CPU allows stores to commit before they are completed and as soon as they enter the store queue. This is the reason why stores are verified by the the checker CPU, separately, once they complete and after they are sent to the memory. Store conditionals, on the other hand, have an additional writeback stage in the pipeline as they return their result to a register, similarly to loads. This is the reason why they do not commit before they receive a response from the memory. This allows store conditionals to be verified by the checker CPU as soon as they commit in the same way as all other non-store insturctions. At the same time, the presense of a checker CPU should not require changes to way we handle instructions. This change removes explicit calls to: * incorrectly set the extra data of the request to 0 (a subsequent call to completeAcc already does this without making any ISA assumptions about the return value of the failed store conditional) * complete failing store conditionals Change-Id: If21d70b21caa55b35e9fdcc50f254c590465d3c3 Reviewed-by: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com> Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/4820 Maintainer: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com>

The KVM CPU sometimes needs to access devices when drain() is called. This typically happens on ARM when synchronizing devices that use the system register interface. When called from drain(), the event queue isn't locked since drain is called from the outside when the simulator isn't servicing any events. In such cases, performing a migration to the device's queue will unlock a mutex that isn't locked. This typically results in a deadlock when resuming the system since the lock will be in an undefined state.

This patch adds some more functionality to the cpu model and the arch to interface with the vector register file. This change consists mainly of augmenting ThreadContexts and ExecContexts with calls to get/set full vectors, underlying microarchitectural elements or lanes. Those are meant to interface with the vector register file. All classes that implement this interface also get an appropriate implementation. This requires implementing the vector register file for the different models using the VecRegContainer class. This change set also updates the Result abstraction to contemplate the possibility of having a vector as result. The changes also affect how the remote_gdb connection works.

With the hierarchical RegId there are a lot of functions that are redundant now. The idea behind the simplification is that instead of having the regId, telling which kind of register read/write/rename/lookup/etc. and then the function panic_if'ing if the regId is not of the appropriate type, we provide an interface that decides what kind of register to read depending on the register type of the given regId.

2017-07-05cpu: Physical register structural + flat indexingNathanael Premillieu
Mimic the changes done on the architectural register indexes on the physical register indexes. This is specific to the O3 model. The structure, called PhysRegId, contains a register class, a register index and a flat register index. The flat register index is kept because it is useful in some cases where the type of register is not important (dependency graph and scoreboard for example). Instead of directly using the structure, most of the code is working with a const PhysRegId* (typedef to PhysRegIdPtr). The actual PhysRegId objects are stored in the regFile.

2017-07-05arch, cpu: Architectural Register structural indexingNathanael Premillieu
Replace the unified register mapping with a structure associating a class and an index. It is now much easier to know which class of register the index is referring to. Also, when adding a new class there is no need to modify existing ones.

2017-05-15cpu: fix problem with forwarding and locked loadAlec Roelke
If a (regular) store is followed closely enough by a locked load that overlaps, the LSQ will forward the store's data to the locked load and never tell the cache about the locked load. As a result, the cache will not lock the address and all future store-conditional requests on that address will fail. This patch fixes that by preventing forwarding if the memory request is a locked load and adding another case to the LSQ forwarding logic that delays the locked load request if a store in the LSQ contains all or part of the data that is requested. [Merge second and last if blocks because their bodies are the same.] Change-Id: I895cc2b9570035267bdf6ae3fdc8a09049969841 Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/2400 Reviewed-by: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com> Reviewed-by: Nikos Nikoleris <nikos.nikoleris@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Tony Gutierrez <anthony.gutierrez@amd.com> Maintainer: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com>
2017-05-02python: Use PyBind11 instead of SWIG for Python wrappersAndreas Sandberg
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.
