2014-12-02 | mem: Relax packet src/dest check and shift onus to crossbar | Andreas Hansson | |
This patch allows objects to get the src/dest of a packet even if it is not set to a valid port id. This simplifies (ab)using the bridge as a buffer and latency adapter in situations where the neighbouring MemObjects are not crossbars. The checks that were done in the packet are now shifted to the crossbar where the fields are used to index into the port arrays. Thus, the carrier of the information is not burdened with checking, and the crossbar can check not only that the destination is set, but also that the port index is within limits. | |||
2014-09-20 | mem: Rename Bus to XBar to better reflect its behaviour | Andreas Hansson | |
This patch changes the name of the Bus classes to XBar to better reflect the actual timing behaviour. The actual instances in the config scripts are not renamed, and remain as e.g. iobus or membus. As part of this renaming, the code has also been clean up slightly, making use of range-based for loops and tidying up some comments. The only changes outside the bus/crossbar code is due to the delay variables in the packet. --HG-- rename : src/mem/Bus.py => src/mem/XBar.py rename : src/mem/coherent_bus.cc => src/mem/coherent_xbar.cc rename : src/mem/coherent_bus.hh => src/mem/coherent_xbar.hh rename : src/mem/noncoherent_bus.cc => src/mem/noncoherent_xbar.cc rename : src/mem/noncoherent_bus.hh => src/mem/noncoherent_xbar.hh rename : src/mem/bus.cc => src/mem/xbar.cc rename : src/mem/bus.hh => src/mem/xbar.hh |
