2018-10-26mem-ruby: Fix MOESI_CMP_directory in ports orderNikos Nikoleris
To avoid deadlocks ruby objects typically prioritize the handling of responses to all other events. The order in which in_port statements are written determine the order in which they are handled. This patch fixes the order of in_order statements for the L2 cache in the MOESI_CMP_directory.

2018-03-12mem-ruby: Fix RubyPrefetcher support in MESI_Two_LevelRico Amslinger
Only a small quantity of prefetches were issued, as the positive feedback mechanism was not implemented. This commit adds a new action po_observeHit, which notifies the RubyPrefetcher of successful prefetches and resets the prefetch flag. When a cache line was replaced by a prefetch, the wrong queue could be stalled. This commit adds a new event PF_L1_Replacement, which stalls the correct queue. The behavior when receiving a prefetch or instruction fetch while in PF_IS_I (prefetch caused GETs, but got invalidated before the response was received) was undefined. This was changed to drop the prefetch request or change the state to non-prefetch, respectively. This behavior is analogous to IS_I (non-prefetch caused GETs, but got invalidated before the response was received) and the data case, respectively. In my local branch a major (20+%) performance increase can be observed in SPEC2006 gobmk and leslie3d when enabling the prefetcher. Some other benchmarks like bwaves, GemsFDTD, sphinx and wrf show smaller (~10%) performance increases. Unfortunately, the performance in most other SPEC benchmarks is still poor, most likely as the prefetcher does not detect strides fast/often enough. In order to push the change timely (most benchmarks have runtimes in the order of days on my machine even with the smallest parameters) after checkout, I have only run gobmk with the base repository + this commit. The results match those of my local branch.

2016-11-19ruby: init MessageSizeType of SequencerMsg to Request_ControlSooraj Puthoor
SequencerMsg is autogenerated by slicc scripts and the MessageSizeType is initialized to the max enume value by default. The DMASequencer pushes this message to the mandatory queue and since the MessageSizeType is unitialized, string_to_MessageSizeType() function used by traces to print the message fails with a panic. This patch avoids this problem by initializing MessageSizeType of SequencerMsg to Request_Control.

2015-07-20ruby: slicc: have a static MachineTypeTony Gutierrez
This patch is imported from reviewboard patch 2551 by Nilay. This patch moves from a dynamically defined MachineType to a statically defined one. The need for this patch was felt since a dynamically defined type prevents us from having types for which no machine definition may exist. The following changes have been made: i. each machine definition now uses a type from the MachineType enumeration instead of any random identifier. This required changing the grammar and the *.sm files. ii. MachineType enumeration defined statically in RubySlicc_Exports.sm. * * * normal protocol fixes for nilay's parser machine type fix

At other places, change has been made to print just the address in hex.
2015-09-16ruby: Add missing block deallocations in MOESI_hammerLena Olson
Some blocks in MOESI hammer were not getting deallocated when they were set to an idle state (e.g. by invalidate or other_getx/s messages). While functionally correct, this caused some bad effects on performance, such as blocks in I in the L1s getting sent to the L2 upon eviction, in turn evicting valid blocks. Also, if a valid block was in LRU, that block could be evicted rather than a block in I. This patch adds in the missing deallocations. Committed by: Nilay Vaish<nilay@cs.wisc.edu>
2015-09-16ruby: message buffer, timer table: significant changesNilay Vaish
This patch changes MessageBuffer and TimerTable, two structures used for buffering messages by components in ruby. These structures would no longer maintain pointers to clock objects. Functions in these structures have been changed to take as input current time in Tick. Similarly, these structures will not operate on Cycle valued latencies for different operations. The corresponding functions would need to be provided with these latencies by components invoking the relevant functions. These latencies should also be in Ticks. I felt the need for these changes while trying to speed up ruby. The ultimate aim is to eliminate Consumer class and replace it with an EventManager object in the MessageBuffer and TimerTable classes. This object would be used for scheduling events. The event itself would contain information on the object and function to be invoked. In hindsight, it seems I should have done this while I was moving away from use of a single global clock in the memory system. That change led to introduction of clock objects that replaced the global clock object. It never crossed my mind that having clock object pointers is not a good design. And now I really don't like the fact that we have separate consumer, receiver and sender pointers in message buffers.

2015-09-05ruby: call setMRU from L1 controllers, not from sequencerNilay Vaish
Currently the sequencer calls the function setMRU that updates the replacement policy structures with the first level caches. While functionally this is correct, the problem is that this requires calling findTagInSet() which is an expensive function. This patch removes the calls to setMRU from the sequencer. All controllers should now update the replacement policy on their own. The set and the way index for a given cache entry can be found within the AbstractCacheEntry structure.

2015-08-14ruby: Protocol changes for SimObject MessageBuffersJoel Hestness
2015-08-14ruby: Expose MessageBuffers as SimObjectsJoel Hestness
Expose MessageBuffers from SLICC controllers as SimObjects that can be manipulated in Python. This patch has numerous benefits: 1) First and foremost, it exposes MessageBuffers as SimObjects that can be manipulated in Python code. This allows parameters to be set and checked in Python code to avoid obfuscating parameters within protocol files. Further, now as SimObjects, MessageBuffer parameters are printed to config output files as a way to track parameters across simulations (e.g. buffer sizes) 2) Cleans up special-case code for responseFromMemory buffers, and aligns their instantiation and use with mandatoryQueue buffers. These two special buffers are the only MessageBuffers that are exposed to components outside of SLICC controllers, and they're both slave ends of these buffers. They should be exposed outside of SLICC in the same way, and this patch does it. 3) Distinguishes buffer-specific parameters from buffer-to-network parameters. Specifically, buffer size, randomization, ordering, recycle latency, and ports are all specific to a MessageBuffer, while the virtual network ID and type are intrinsics of how the buffer is connected to network ports. The former are specified in the Python object, while the latter are specified in the controller *.sm files. Unlike buffer-specific parameters, which may need to change depending on the simulated system structure, buffer-to-network parameters can be specified statically for most or all different simulated systems.
2015-08-14ruby: Change PerfectCacheMemory::lookup to return pointerJoel Hestness
CacheMemory and DirectoryMemory lookup functions return pointers to entries stored in the memory. Bring PerfectCacheMemory in line with this convention, and clean up SLICC code generation that was in place solely to handle references like that which was returned by PerfectCacheMemory::lookup.
2015-08-03ruby: mesi three level: multiple corrections to the protocolNilay Vaish
1. Eliminate state NP in L0 and L1 Caches: The two states 'NP' and 'I' both mean that the cache block is not present in the cache. 'I' also means that the cache entry has been allocated. This causes problems when we do not correctly initialize the cache entry when it is re-used. Hence, this patch eliminates the state NP altogether. Everytime a new block comes into the cache, a cache entry is allocated. Everytime a block leaves, the corresponding entry is deallocated. 2. Separate transient state for instruction fetches: purely for accouting purposes. 3. Drop state IS_I in L1 Cache and the message type STALE_DATA: when invalidation is received for a block in IS, the block used to be moved to IS_I. This meant that the data that would arrive in future would be used but not stored since the controller lost the permissions after gaining them. This state is being dropped and now invalidation messages would not processed till the data has arrived. This also means that STALE_DATA type is not longer required.
2015-08-03ruby: mesi two,three level: copy data only when dirtyNilay Vaish
The level 2 controller has a bug. In one particular action, the data block was copied from a message irrespective whether the block is dirty or not. In cases when L1 sends no data, the data value copied was incorrect.
2015-07-20slicc: enable overloading in functions not in classesBrad Beckmann
