2010-02-24cache stats: account for writebacks and/or device occupancy in the cache.Lisa Hsu
Plus, a minor bugfix that neglects to update blk->contextSrc in certain cases on a cache insert.
2010-02-23cache: Make caches sharing aware and add occupancy stats.Lisa Hsu
On the config end, if a shared L2 is created for the system, it is parameterized to have n sharers as defined by option.num_cpus. In addition to making the cache sharing aware so that discriminating tag policies can make use of context_ids to make decisions, I added an occupancy AverageStat and an occ % stat to each cache so that you could know which contexts are occupying how much cache on average, both in terms of blocks and percentage. Note that since devices have context_id -1, having an array of occ stats that correspond to each context_id will break here, so in FS mode I add an extra bucket for device blocks. This bucket is explicitly not added in SE mode in order to not only avoid ugliness in the stats.txt file, but to avoid broken stats (some formulas break when a bucket is 0).
2010-02-23cache: pull CacheSet out of LRU so that other tags can use associative sets.Lisa Hsu
2010-01-12cache: make tags->insertBlock() and tags->accessBlock() context aware so ↵Lisa Hsu
that the cache can make context-specific decisions within their various tag policy implementations.
2009-09-26Minor cleanup: Use the blockAlign() method where it applies in the cache.Steve Reinhardt
2009-09-26Force prefetches to check cache and MSHRs immediately prior to issue.Steve Reinhardt
This prevents redundant prefetches from being issued, solving the occasional 'needsExclusive && !blk->isWritable()' assertion failure in cache_impl.hh that several people have run into. Eliminates "prefetch_cache_check_push" flag, neither setting of which really solved the problem.

2009-08-01Fix setting of INST_FETCH flag for O3 CPU.Steve Reinhardt
It's still broken in inorder. Also enhance DPRINTFs in cache and physical memory so we can see more easily whether it's getting set or not.

2008-07-16mem: use single BadAddr responder per system.Steve Reinhardt
Previously there was one per bus, which caused some coherence problems when more than one decided to respond. Now there is just one on the main memory bus. The default bus responder on all other buses is now the downstream cache's cpu_side port. Caches no longer need to do address range filtering; instead, we just have a simple flag to prevent snoops from propagating to the I/O bus.

2009-03-05stats: Fix all stats usages to deal with template fixesNathan Binkert
2009-02-16Fixes to get prefetching working again.Steve Reinhardt
Apparently we broke it with the cache rewrite and never noticed. Thanks to Bao Yungang <baoyungang@gmail.com> for a significant part of these changes (and for inspiring me to work on the rest). Some other overdue cleanup on the prefetch code too.
2008-11-14Cache: get rid of obsolete Tag methods.Steve Reinhardt
I think readData() and writeData() were used for Erik's compression work, but that code is gone, these aren't called anymore, and they don't even really do what their names imply.
2008-11-10Cache: Refactor packet forwarding a bit.Steve Reinhardt
Makes adding write-through operations easier.
2008-11-04decouple eviction from insertion in the cache.Lisa Hsu
2008-11-04Change the findBlock(addr, lat) to accessBlock, which I think has better ↵Lisa Hsu
connotations for what is really happening and how it should be used.
2008-11-04get rid of all instances of readTid() and getThreadNum(). Unify and eliminateLisa Hsu
redundancies with threadId() as their replacement.
2008-11-02Add in Context IDs to the simulator. From now on, cpuId is almost never used,Lisa Hsu
the primary identifier for a hardware context should be contextId(). The concept of threads within a CPU remains, in the form of threadId() because sometimes you need to know which context within a cpu to manipulate.

2008-10-09eventq: convert all usage of events to use the new API.Nathan Binkert
For now, there is still a single global event queue, but this is necessary for making the steps towards a parallelized m5.

2008-06-21Generate more useful error messages for unconnected ports.Steve Reinhardt
Force all non-default ports to provide a name and an owner in the constructor.
2008-06-13Get rid of bogus cache assertion.Steve Reinhardt
I was asserting that the only reason you would defer targets is if a write came in while you had an outstanding read miss, but there's another case where you could get a read access after you've snooped an invalidation and buffered it because it applies to a prior outstanding miss.
2008-05-15Make sure that output files are always checked success before they're used.Ali Saidi

2008-01-02Add ReadRespWithInvalidate to handle multi-level coherence situationSteve Reinhardt
where we defer a response to a read from a far-away cache A, then later defer a ReadExcl from a cache B on the same bus as us. We'll assert MemInhibit in both cases, but in the latter case MemInhibit will keep the invalidation from reaching cache A. This special response tells cache A that it gets the block to satisfy its read, but must immediately invalidate it. --HG-- extra : convert_revision : f85c8b47bb30232da37ac861b50a6539dc81161b
