2018-10-26arch-arm: We add PRFM PST instruction for armyuetsu.kodama
Note current PRFM supports only PLD, but PST (prefetch for store) is also important for latency hiding. We also bug fix in disassembler to display prfop correctly.

2018-08-22mem: Add StreamID and SubstreamIDStanislaw Czerniawski
This patch adds StreamID and SubstreamID to Request. These fields can be used by a SMMU/IOMMU model to pick up the correct translation context for each request and they correspond to an ASID in a device. For this reason they have been merged together with the request asid in a union, so that a cpu will set the asid and a device will set the Stream and Substream ID.

2018-06-14base,mem: Support AtomicOpFunctor in the classic memory systemTuan Ta
AtomicOpFunctor can be used to implement atomic memory operations. AtomicOpFunctor is captured inside a memory request and executed directly in the memory hierarchy in a single step. This patch enables AtomicOpFunctor pointers to be included in a memory request and executed in a single step in the classic cache system. This patch also makes the copy constructor of Request class do a deep copy of AtomicOpFunctor object. This prevents a copy of a Request object from accessing a deleted AtomicOpFunctor object.

2017-12-05mem: Support for specifying the destination of a WriteCleanNikos Nikoleris
Previously, WriteClean packets would always write to the first memory below unless the memory was unable to allocate in which case it would be forwarded further below. This change adds support for specifying the destination of a WriteClean packet. The cache annotates the request with the specified destination and marks the packet as write-through upon its creation. The coherent xbar checks packets for their destination and resets the write-through flag when necessary e.g., the coherent xbar that is set as the PoC will reset the write-through flag for packets to the PoC.

2016-04-07mem: Remove threadId from memory request classMitch Hayenga
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.

mem: support for gpu-style RMWs in ruby This patch adds support for GPU-style read-modify-write (RMW) operations in ruby. Such atomic operations are traditionally executed at the memory controller (instead of through an L1 cache using cache-line locking). Currently, this patch works by propogating operation functors through the memory system.

2015-12-07cpu: Support virtual addr in elastic tracesRadhika Jagtap
This patch adds support to optionally capture the virtual address and asid for load/store instructions in the elastic traces. If they are present in the traces, Trace CPU will set those fields of the request during replay.
2015-12-07mem: Add instruction sequence number to requestRadhika Jagtap

2015-08-21arm, mem: Remove unused CLEAR_LL request flagAndreas Hansson
Cleaning up dead code. The CLREX stores zero directly to MISCREG_LOCKFLAG and so the request flag is no longer needed. The corresponding functionality in the cache tags is also removed.

2015-08-07base: Declare a type for context IDsAndreas Sandberg

2015-08-07mem: Remove extraneous acquire/release flags and attributesAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the extraneous flags and attributes from the request and packet, and simply leaves the new commands. The change introduced when adding acquire/release breaks all compatibility with existing traces, and there is really no need for any new flags and attributes. The commands should be sufficient. This patch fixes packet tracing (urgent), and also removes the unnecessary complexity.

2015-07-03mem: Convert Request static const flags to enumsAndreas Hansson
This patch fixes an issue which is very wide spread in the codebase, causing sporadic linking failures. The issue is that we declare static const class variables in the header, without any definition (as part of a source file). In most cases the compiler propagates the value and we have no issues. However, especially for less optimising builds such as debug, we get sporadic linking failures due to undefined references. This patch fixes the Request class, by turning the static const flags and master IDs into C++11 typed enums.
2015-05-05mem, cpu: Add a separate flag for strictly ordered memoryAndreas Sandberg
The Request::UNCACHEABLE flag currently has two different functions. The first, and obvious, function is to prevent the memory system from caching data in the request. The second function is to prevent reordering and speculation in CPU models. This changeset gives the order/speculation requirement a separate flag (Request::STRICT_ORDER). This flag prevents CPU models from doing the following optimizations: * Speculation: CPU models are not allowed to issue speculative loads. * Write combining: CPU models and caches are not allowed to merge writes to the same cache line. Note: The memory system may still reorder accesses unless the UNCACHEABLE flag is set. It is therefore expected that the STRICT_ORDER flag is combined with the UNCACHEABLE flag to prevent this behavior.
2015-05-05mem, alpha: Move Alpha-specific request flagsAndreas Sandberg

2015-01-22mem: Clean up Request initialisationAndreas Hansson
This patch tidies up how we create and set the fields of a Request. In essence it tries to use the constructor where possible (as opposed to setPhys and setVirt), thus avoiding spreading the information across a number of locations. In fact, setPhys is made private as part of this patch, and a number of places where we callede setVirt instead uses the appropriate constructor.
2014-12-02mem: Make Request getters constAndreas Hansson
This patch tidies up the Request class, making all getters const. The odd one out is incAccessDepth which is called by the memory system as packets carry the request around. This is also const to enable the packet to hold on to a const Request.

2014-09-09misc: Fix a number of unitialised variables and membersAndreas Hansson

2014-01-29mem: prefetcher: add options, support for unaligned addressesMitch Hayenga ext:(%2C%20Amin%20Farmahini%20%3Caminfar%40gmail.com%3E)
This patch extends the classic prefetcher to work on non-block aligned addresses. Because the existing prefetchers in gem5 mask off the lower address bits of cache accesses, many predictable strides fail to be detected. For example, if a load were to stride by 48 bytes, with 64 byte cachelines, the current stride based prefetcher would see an access pattern of 0, 64, 64, 128, 192.... Thus not detecting a constant stride pattern. This patch fixes this, by training the prefetcher on access and not masking off the lower address bits. It also adds the following configuration options: 1) Training/prefetching only on cache misses, 2) Training/prefetching only on data acceses, 3) Optionally tagging prefetches with a PC address. #3 allows prefetchers to train off of prefetch requests in systems with multiple cache levels and PC-based prefetchers present at multiple levels. It also effectively allows a pipelining of prefetch requests (like in POWER4) across multiple levels of cache hierarchy. Improves performance on my gem5 configuration by 4.3% for SPECINT and 4.7% for SPECFP (geomean).

2013-10-15mem: Rename the ASI_BITS flag field in RequestAndreas Sandberg
ASI_BITS in the Request object were originally used to store a memory request's ASI on SPARC. This is not the case any more since other ISAs use the ASI bits to store architecture-dependent information. This changeset renames the ASI_BITS to ARCH_BITS which better describes their use. Additionally, the getAsi() accessor is renamed to getArchFlags().
2013-10-15mem: Use a flag instead of address bit 63 for generic IPRsAndreas Sandberg
Using address bit 63 to identify generic IPRs caused problems on SPARC, where IPRs are heavily used. This changeset redefines how generic IPRs are identified. Instead of using bit 63, we now use a separate flag (GENERIC_IPR) a memory request.

2012-02-12mem: Add a master ID to each request object.Ali Saidi
This change adds a master id to each request object which can be used identify every device in the system that is capable of issuing a request.
