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.
2013-01-07mem: Skip address mapper range checks to allow more flexibilityAndreas Hansson
This patch makes the address mapper less stringent about checking the before and after ranges, i.e. the original and remapped ranges. The checks were not really necessary, and there are situations when the previous checks were too strict.
2013-01-07base: Encapsulate the underlying fields in AddrRangeAndreas Hansson
This patch makes the start and end address private in a move to prevent direct manipulation and matching of ranges based on these fields. This is done so that a transition to ranges with interleaving support is possible. As a result of hiding the start and end, a number of member functions are needed to perform the comparisons and manipulations that previously took place directly on the members. An accessor function is provided for the start address, and a function is added to test if an address is within a range. As a result of the latter the != and == operator is also removed in favour of the member function. A member function that returns a string representation is also created to allow debug printing. In general, this patch does not add any functionality, but it does take us closer to a situation where interleaving (and more cleverness) can be added under the bonnet without exposing it to the user. More on that in a later patch.
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.
2012-10-15Mem: Use range operations in bus in preparation for stripingAndreas Hansson
This patch transitions the bus to use the AddrRange operations instead of directly accessing the start and end. The change facilitates the move to a more elaborate AddrRange class that also supports address striping in the bus by specifying interleaving bits in the ranges. Two new functions are added to the AddrRange to determine if two ranges intersect, and if one is a subset of another. The bus propagation of address ranges is also tweaked such that an update is only propagated if the bus received information from all the downstream slave modules. This avoids the iteration and need for the cycle-breaking scheme that was previously used.
2012-09-25mem: Add a gasket that allows memory ranges to be re-mapped.Ali Saidi
For example if DRAM is at two locations and mirrored this patch allows the mirroring to occur.
