The Process class is full of implementation details and
structures related to SE Mode. This changeset factors out an
internal class from Process and moves it into a separate file.
The purpose behind doing this is to clean up the code and make
it a bit more modular.

The GPUCoalescer and the Shader classes have different base classes in
C++ and Python. This causes subtle bugs in SWIG and compilation errors
for PyBind.

Modifies the clone system call and adds execve system call. Requires allowing
processes to steal thread contexts from other processes in the same system
object and the ability to detach pieces of process state (such as MemState)
to allow dynamic sharing.

The clang compiler complains that the wavefront member in
the GpuISA class is unused. This changeset removes the member,
because it does not appear serve a purpose.

The clang compiler is more stringent than the recent versions of
GCC when dealing with overrides. This changeset adds the specifier
to the methods which need it to silence the compiler.

Several large changes happen in this patch.
The FDEntry class is rewritten so that file descriptors now correspond to
types: 'File' which is normal file-backed file with the file open on the
host machine, 'Pipe' which is a pipe that has been opened on the host machine,
and 'Device' which does not have an open file on the host yet acts as a pseudo
device with which to issue ioctls. Other types which might be added in the
future are directory entries and sockets (off the top of my head).
The FDArray class was create to hold most of the file descriptor handling
that was stuffed into the Process class. It uses shared pointers and
the std::array type to hold the FDEntries mentioned above.
The changes to these two classes needed to be propagated out to the rest
of the code so there were quite a few changes for that. Also, comments were
added where I thought they were needed to help others and extend our
DOxygen coverage.

The EIOProcess class was removed recently and it was the only other class
which derived from Process. Since every Process invocation is also a
LiveProcess invocation, it makes sense to simplify the organization by
combining the fields from LiveProcess into Process.

Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This
involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward
declarations could have been used rather than a full include.

HSA functions calls are still not supported properly with HSAIL, but
the recent AMP runtime modifications rely on being able to parse the
BRIG/HSAIL files that are extracted from the application binaries.
We need to parse the function call HSAIL definitions, but we do not
actually need to make the function calls.
The reason that this happens is that HCC appends a set of routines
to every HSAIL binary that it creates. These extra, unnecessary
routines exist in the HCC source as a file; this file is cat'd onto
everything that the compiler outputs before being assembled into the
application's binary. HCC does this because it might call these helper
functions. However, it doesn't actually appear to do so in the AMP
codes so we just parse these functions with the HSAIL parser and
then ignore them.

the GPUExecContext context currently stores a reference to its parent WF's
GPUISA object, however there are some special instructions that do not have
an associated WF. when these objects are constructed they set their WF pointer
to null, which causes the GPUExecContext to segfault when trying to
dereference
the WF pointer to get at the WF's GPUISA object. here we change the GPUISA
reference in the GPUExecContext class to a pointer so that it may be set to
null.

valid field for GpuTlbEntry is not set in the default ctor, which can

fixes to appease clang++. tested on:
Ubuntu clang version 3.5.0-4ubuntu2~trusty2
(tags/RELEASE_350/final) (based on LLVM 3.5.0)
Ubuntu clang version 3.6.0-2ubuntu1~trusty1
(tags/RELEASE_360/final) (based on LLVM 3.6.0)
the fixes address the following five issues:
1) the exec continuations in gpu_static_inst.hh were marked
as protected when they should be public. here we mark
them as public
2) the Abs instruction uses std::abs() in its execute method.
because Abs is templated, it can also operate on U32 and U64,
types, which cause Abs::execute() to pass uint32_t and uint64_t
types to std::abs() respectively. this triggers a warning
because std::abs() has no effect in this case. to rememdy this
we add template specialization for the execute() method of Abs
when its template paramter is U32 or U64.
3) Some potocols that utilize the code in cprintf.hh were missing
includes to BoolVec.hh, which defines operator<< for the BoolVec
type. This would cause issues when the generated code would try
to pass a BoolVec type to a method in cprintf.hh that used
operator<< on an instance of a BoolVec.
4) Surprise, clang doesn't like it when you clobber all the bits
in a newly allocated object. I.e., this code:
tlb = new GpuTlbEntry\[size\];
std::memset(tlb, 0, sizeof(GpuTlbEntry) \* size);
Let's use std::vector to track the TLB entries in the GpuTlb now...
5) There were a few variables used only in DPRINTFs, so we mark them
with M5_VAR_USED.

this patch adds an ordered response buffer to the GM pipeline
to ensure in-order data delivery. the buffer is implemented as
a stl ordered map, which sorts the request in program order by
using their sequence ID. when requests return to the GM pipeline
they are marked as done. only the oldest request may be serviced
from the ordered buffer, and only if is marked as done.
the FIFO response buffers are kept and used in OoO delivery mode

for HSAIL an operand's indices into the register files may be calculated
trivially, because the operands are always read from a register file, or are
an immediate.
for machine ISA, however, an op selector may specify special registers, or
may specify special SGPRs with an alias op selector value. the location of
some of the special registers values are dependent on the size of the RF
in some cases. here we add a way for the underlying getRegisterIndex()
method to know about the size of the RFs, so that it may find the relative
positions of the special register values.

currently the PC is incremented on an instruction granularity, and not as an
instruction's byte address. machine ISA instructions assume the PC is a byte
address, and is incremented accordingly. here we make the GPU model, and the
HSAIL instructions treat the PC as a byte address as well.
|
|
the GPUISA class is meant to encapsulate any ISA-specific behavior - special
register accesses, isa-specific WF/kernel state, etc. - in a generic enough
way so that it may be used in ISA-agnostic code.
gpu-compute: use the GPUISA object to advance the PC
the GPU model treats the PC as a pointer to individual instruction objects -
which are store in a contiguous array - and not a byte address to be fetched
from the real memory system. this is ok for HSAIL because all instructions
are considered by the model to be the same size.
in machine ISA, however, instructions may be 32b or 64b, and branches are
calculated by advancing the PC by the number of words (4 byte chunks) it
needs to advance in the real instruction stream. because of this there is
a mismatch between the PC we use to index into the instruction array, and
the actual byte address PC the ISA expects. here we move the PC advance
calculation to the ISA so that differences in the instrucion sizes may be
accounted for in generic way.
|
|
|
|
because every taken branch causes fetch to be discarded, we move the call
to the WF to avoid to have to call it from each and every branch instruction
type.
|
|
we are removing doGmReturn from the GM pipe, and adding completeAcc()
implementations for the HSAIL mem ops. the behavior in doGmReturn is
dependent on HSAIL and HSAIL mem ops, however the completion phase
of memory ops in machine ISA can be very different, even amongst individual
machine ISA mem ops. so we remove this functionality from the pipeline and
allow it to be implemented by the individual instructions.
|
|
this patch removes the GPUStaticInst enums that were defined in GPU.py.
instead, a simple set of attribute flags that can be set in the base
instruction class are used. this will help unify the attributes of HSAIL
and machine ISA instructions within the model itself.
because the static instrution now carries the attributes, a GPUDynInst
must carry a pointer to a valid GPUStaticInst so a new static kernel launch
instruction is added, which carries the attributes needed to perform a
the kernel launch.

This patch adds a method to the Wavefront class to compute the actual workgroup
size. This can be different from the maximum workgroup size specified when
launching the kernel through the NDRange object. Current solution is still not
optimal, as we are computing these for each wavefront and the dispatcher also
needs to have this information and can't actually call
Wavefront::computeActuallWgSz before the wavefronts are being created. A long
term solution would be to have a Workgroup class that deals with all these
details.

This patch adds methods to serialize the context of a particular wavefront
to the simulated system memory. Context serialization is used when a wavefront
is preempeted (i.e. context switch).

std::stack has no iterators, therefore the reconvergence stack can't be

when executing a particular wavefront.

Renaming members of the Wavefront class in accordance with the style guide.

WFContext struct is currently unused and it has been rendered not useful in
saving and restoring the context of a Wavefront. Wavefront class should be
sufficient for that purpose and the runtime can figure out the memory size
it will need to allocate for a Wavefront through an IOCTL.
|
|
Connecting basic blocks would stop too early in kernels where ret was not the
last instruction. This patch allows basic blocks after the ret instruction
to be properly connected.
|
|
Eliminate the VSZ constant that defined the Wavefront size (in numbers of work
items); replaced it with a parameter in the GPU.py configuration script.
Changed all data structures dependent on the Wavefront size to be dynamically
sized. Legal values of Wavefront size are 16, 32, 64 for now and checked at
initialization time.

Fixing an issue with regStats not calling the parent class method
for most SimObjects in Gem5. This causes issues if one adds new

the n_reg field in the GPUDynInst is not currently set in the constructor.
if it is not set externally, there are assertion failures that may occur

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.

The mmapGrowsDown() method was a static method on the OperatingSystem
class (and derived classes), which worked OK for the templated syscall
emulation methods, but made it hard to access elsewhere. This patch
moves the method to be a virtual function on the LiveProcess method,
where it can be overridden for specific platforms (for now, Alpha).
This patch also changes the value of mmapGrowsDown() from being false
by default and true only on X86Linux32 to being true by default and
false only on Alpha, which seems closer to reality (though in reality
most people use ASLR and this doesn't really matter anymore).
In the process, also got rid of the unused mmap_start field on
LiveProcess and OperatingSystem mmapGrowsUp variable.

Both Memory Fence is now flagged as Global Memory only to avoid resource

Flat instructions now check for Shared Memory resource busy to avoid

All WaitClass resources now use cycles (not ticks) to register the number

instruction scheduling logic which always used clock cycles.

brig_object.hh is specific to the HSAIL ISA, and hence should not be
