2014-09-01ruby: move files from ruby/system to ruby/structuresNilay Vaish
The directory ruby/system is crowded and unorganized. Hence, the files the hold actual physical structures, are being moved to the directory ruby/structures. This includes Cache Memory, Directory Memory, Memory Controller, Wire Buffer, TBE Table, Perfect Cache Memory, Timer Table, Bank Array. The directory ruby/systems has the glue code that holds these structures together. --HG-- rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MachineID.hh => src/mem/ruby/common/MachineID.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/buffers/MessageBuffer.cc => src/mem/ruby/network/MessageBuffer.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/buffers/MessageBuffer.hh => src/mem/ruby/network/MessageBuffer.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/buffers/MessageBufferNode.cc => src/mem/ruby/network/MessageBufferNode.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/buffers/MessageBufferNode.hh => src/mem/ruby/network/MessageBufferNode.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/AbstractReplacementPolicy.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/AbstractReplacementPolicy.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/BankedArray.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/BankedArray.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/BankedArray.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/BankedArray.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/Cache.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/Cache.py rename : src/mem/ruby/system/CacheMemory.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/CacheMemory.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/CacheMemory.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/CacheMemory.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/DirectoryMemory.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/DirectoryMemory.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/DirectoryMemory.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/DirectoryMemory.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/DirectoryMemory.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/DirectoryMemory.py rename : src/mem/ruby/system/LRUPolicy.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/LRUPolicy.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryControl.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryControl.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryControl.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryControl.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryControl.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryControl.py rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryNode.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryNode.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryNode.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryNode.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/MemoryVector.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/MemoryVector.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/PerfectCacheMemory.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/PerfectCacheMemory.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/PersistentTable.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/PersistentTable.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/PersistentTable.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/PersistentTable.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/PseudoLRUPolicy.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/PseudoLRUPolicy.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/RubyMemoryControl.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/RubyMemoryControl.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/RubyMemoryControl.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/RubyMemoryControl.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/RubyMemoryControl.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/RubyMemoryControl.py rename : src/mem/ruby/system/SparseMemory.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/SparseMemory.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/SparseMemory.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/SparseMemory.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/TBETable.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/TBETable.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/TimerTable.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/TimerTable.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/TimerTable.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/TimerTable.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/WireBuffer.cc => src/mem/ruby/structures/WireBuffer.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/system/WireBuffer.hh => src/mem/ruby/structures/WireBuffer.hh rename : src/mem/ruby/system/WireBuffer.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/WireBuffer.py rename : src/mem/ruby/recorder/CacheRecorder.cc => src/mem/ruby/system/CacheRecorder.cc rename : src/mem/ruby/recorder/CacheRecorder.hh => src/mem/ruby/system/CacheRecorder.hh
2014-05-31style: eliminate equality tests with true and falseSteve Reinhardt
Using '== true' in a boolean expression is totally redundant, and using '== false' is pretty verbose (and arguably less readable in most cases) compared to '!'. It's somewhat of a pet peeve, perhaps, but I had some time waiting for some tests to run and decided to clean these up. Unfortunately, SLICC appears not to have the '!' operator, so I had to leave the '== false' tests in the SLICC code.
2014-05-23ruby: message buffer: drop dequeue_getDelayCycles()Nilay Vaish
The functionality of updating and returning the delay cycles would now be performed by the dequeue() function itself.
2014-03-01ruby: message buffer: changes related to tracking push/pop timesNilay Vaish
The last pop operation is now tracked as a Tick instead of in Cycles. This helps in avoiding use of the receiver's clock during the enqueue operation.
2014-03-01ruby: make the max_size variable of the MessageBuffer unsignedNilay Vaish
2014-02-23ruby: message buffer: refactor codeNilay Vaish
Code in two of the functions was exactly the same. This patch moves this code to a new function which is called from the two functions mentioned initially.

2013-06-24ruby: MessageBuffer: Remove unused m_size variableJoel Hestness ext:(%2C%20Nilay%20Vaish%20%3Cnilay%40cs.wisc.edu%3E)
The m_size variable attempted to track m_prio_heap.size(), but it did so incorrectly due to the functions reanalyzeMessages and reanalyzeAllMessages(). Since this variable is intended to track m_prio_heap.size(), we can simply replace instances where m_size is referenced with m_prio_heap.size(), which has the added bonus of removing the need for m_size. Note: This patch also removes an extraneous DPRINTF format string designator from reanalyzeAllMessages() Committed by: Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>
2013-04-09Ruby: More descriptive message buffer connection fatalJason Power
When connecting message buffers between Ruby controllers, it is easy to mistakenly connect multiple controllers to the same message buffer. This patch prints a more descriptive fatal message than the previous assert statement in order to facilitate easier debugging.
2013-03-22ruby: message buffer: correct previous errorsNilay Vaish
A recent set of patches added support for multiple clock domains to ruby. I had made some errors while writing those patches. The sender was using the receiver side clock while enqueuing a message in the buffer. Those errors became visible while creating (or restoring from) checkpoints. The errors also become visible when a multi eventq scenario occurs.
2013-03-22ruby: message buffer: remove _ptr from some variablesNilay Vaish
The names were getting too long.
2013-03-22ruby: message buffer node: used Tick in place of CyclesNilay Vaish
The message buffer node used to keep time in terms of Cycles. Since the sender and the receiver can have different clock periods, storing node time in cycles requires some conversion. Instead store the time directly in Ticks.
2013-03-22ruby: consumer: avoid using receiver side clockNilay Vaish
A set of patches was recently committed to allow multiple clock domains in ruby. In those patches, I had inadvertently made an incorrect use of the clocks. Suppose object A needs to schedule an event on object B. It was possible that A accesses B's clock to schedule the event. This is not possible in actual system. Hence, changes are being to the Consumer class so as to avoid such happenings. Note that in a multi eventq simulation, this can possibly lead to an incorrect simulation. There are two functions in the Consumer class that are used for scheduling events. The first function takes in the relative delay over the current time as the argument and adds the current time to it for scheduling the event. The second function takes in the absolute time (in ticks) for scheduling the event. The first function is now being moved to protected section of the class so that only objects of the derived classes can use it. All other objects will have to specify absolute time while scheduling an event for some consumer.
2013-02-19scons: Add warning for missing declarationsAndreas Hansson
This patch enables warnings for missing declarations. To avoid issues with SWIG-generated code, the warning is only applied to non-SWIG code.
2013-02-10ruby: enable multiple clock domainsNilay Vaish
This patch allows ruby to have multiple clock domains. As I understand with this patch, controllers can have different frequencies. The entire network needs to run at a single frequency. The idea is that with in an object, time is treated in terms of cycles. But the messages that are passed from one entity to another should contain the time in Ticks. As of now, this is only true for the message buffers, but not for the links in the network. As I understand the code, all the entities in different networks (simple, garnet-fixed, garnet-flexible) should be clocked at the same frequency. Another problem is that the directory controller has to operate at the same frequency as the ruby system. This is because the memory controller does not make use of the Message Buffer, and instead implements a buffer of its own. So, it has no idea of the frequency at which the directory controller is operating and uses ruby system's frequency for scheduling events.
2013-02-10ruby: replace Time with Cycles in MessageBufferNilay Vaish
2013-02-10ruby: replace Time with Cycles in Message classNilay Vaish
Concomitant changes are being committed as well, including the io operator<< for the Cycles class.
2013-02-10ruby: replaces Time with Cycles in many placesNilay Vaish
The patch started of with replacing Time with Cycles in the Consumer class. But to get ruby to compile, the rest of the changes had to be carried out. Subsequent patches will further this process, till we completely replace Time with Cycles.
2013-01-14Ruby: use ClockedObject in Consumer classNilay Vaish
Many Ruby structures inherit from the Consumer, which is used for scheduling events. The Consumer used to relay on an Event Manager for scheduling events and on g_system_ptr for time. With this patch, the Consumer will now use a ClockedObject to schedule events and to query for current time. This resulted in several structures being converted from SimObjects to ClockedObjects. Also, the MessageBuffer class now requires a pointer to a ClockedObject so as to query for time.
2012-10-15ruby: improved support for functional accessesNilay Vaish
This patch adds support to different entities in the ruby memory system for more reliable functional read/write accesses. Only the simple network has been augmented as of now. Later on Garnet will also support functional accesses. The patch adds functional access code to all the different types of messages that protocols can send around. These messages are functionally accessed by going through the buffers maintained by the network entities. The patch also rectifies some of the bugs found in coherence protocols while testing the patch. With this patch applied, functional writes always succeed. But functional reads can still fail.
2012-09-10Ruby System: Convert to Clocked ObjectNilay Vaish
This patch moves Ruby System from being a SimObject to recently introduced ClockedObject.
2012-08-27Ruby: Remove RubyEventQueueNilay Vaish
This patch removes RubyEventQueue. Consumer objects now rely on RubySystem or themselves for scheduling events.
2012-07-12Ruby: remove config information from ruby.statsNilay Vaish
This patch removes printConfig() functions from all structures in Ruby. Most of the information is already part of config.ini, and where ever it is not, it would become in due course.

ruby: fixed msgptr print call
2012-04-12Ruby: Ensure order-dependent iteration uses an ordered mapAndreas Hansson
This patch fixes a bug in Ruby that caused non-deterministic simulation when changing the underlying hash map implementation. The reason is order-dependent behaviour in combination with iteration over the hash map contents. The two locations where a sorted container is assumed are now changed to make use of a std::map instead of the unordered hash map. With this change, the stats changes slightly and the follow-on changeset will update the relevant statistics.
2012-01-11Ruby: Resurrect Cache Warmup CapabilityNilay Vaish
This patch resurrects ruby's cache warmup capability. It essentially makes use of all the infrastructure that was added to the controllers, memories and the cache recorder.

2011-04-15trace: reimplement the DTRACE function so it doesn't use a vectorNathan Binkert
At the same time, rename the trace flags to debug flags since they have broader usage than simply tracing. This means that --trace-flags is now --debug-flags and --trace-help is now --debug-help

2011-03-01Ruby: Fix DPRINTF bugs in PerfectSwitch and MessageBufferNilay Vaish
At a couple of places in PerfectSwitch.cc and MessageBuffer.cc, DPRINTF() has not been provided with correct number of arguments. The patch fixes these bugs.
2011-02-23ruby: cleaning up RubyQueue and RubyNetwork dprintfsKorey Sewell
Overall, continue to progress Ruby debug messages to more of the normal M5 debug message style - add a name() to the Ruby Throttle & PerfectSwitch objects so that the debug output isn't littered w/"global:" everywhere. - clean up messages that print over multiple lines when possible - clean up duplicate prints in the message buffer
2011-02-14Ruby: Improve Change PerfectSwitch's wakeup functionNilay Vaish
Currently the wakeup function for the PerfectSwitch contains three loops - loop on number of virtual networks loop on number of incoming links loop till all messages for this (link, network) have been routed With an 8 processor mesh network and Hammer protocol, about 11-12% of the was observed to have been spent in this function, which is the highest amongst all the functions. It was found that the innermost loop is executed about 45 times per invocation of the wakeup function, when each invocation of the wakeup function processes just about one message. The patch tries to do away with the redundant executions of the innermost loop. Counters have been added for each virtual network that record the number of messages that need to be routed for that virtual network. The inner loops are only executed when the number of messages for that particular virtual network > 0. This does away with almost 80% of the executions of the innermost loop. The function now consumes about 5-6% of the total execution time.
2011-02-06ruby: support to stallAndWait the mandatory queueBrad Beckmann
By stalling and waiting the mandatory queue instead of recycling it, one can ensure that no incoming messages are starved when the mandatory queue puts signficant of pressure on the L1 cache controller (i.e. the ruby memtester). --HG-- rename : src/mem/slicc/ast/WakeUpDependentsStatementAST.py => src/mem/slicc/ast/WakeUpAllDependentsStatementAST.py

2010-12-01ruby: Converted old ruby debug calls to M5 debug callsNilay Vaish
This patch developed by Nilay Vaish converts all the old GEMS-style ruby debug calls to the appropriate M5 debug calls.
2010-08-20ruby: Stall and wait input messages instead of recyclingBrad Beckmann
This patch allows messages to be stalled in their input buffers and wait until a corresponding address changes state. In order to make this work, all in_ports must be ranked in order of dependence and those in_ports that may unblock an address, must wake up the stalled messages. Alot of this complexity is handled in slicc and the specification files simply annotate the in_ports. --HG-- rename : src/mem/slicc/ast/CheckAllocateStatementAST.py => src/mem/slicc/ast/StallAndWaitStatementAST.py rename : src/mem/slicc/ast/CheckAllocateStatementAST.py => src/mem/slicc/ast/WakeUpDependentsStatementAST.py
2010-08-20ruby: Recycle latency fix for hammerBrad Beckmann
Patch allows each individual message buffer to have different recycle latencies and allows the overall recycle latency to be specified at the cmd line. The patch also adds profiling info to make sure no one processor's requests are recycled too much.
2010-06-10ruby: get rid of PrioHeap and use STLNathan Binkert
One big difference is that PrioHeap puts the smallest element at the top of the heap, whereas stl puts the largest element on top, so I changed all comparisons so they did the right thing. Some usage of PrioHeap was simply changed to a std::vector, using sort at the right time, other usage had me just use the various heap functions in the stl.
2010-06-10ruby: get rid of Vector and use STLNathan Binkert
add a couple of helper functions to base for deleteing all pointers in a container and outputting containers to a stream
2010-06-10ruby: get rid of RefCnt and Allocator stuff use base/refcnt.hhNathan Binkert
This was somewhat tricky because the RefCnt API was somewhat odd. The biggest confusion was that the the RefCnt object's constructor that took a TYPE& cloned the object. I created an explicit virtual clone() function for things that took advantage of this version of the constructor. I was conservative and used clone() when I was in doubt of whether or not it was necessary. I still think that there are probably too many instances of clone(), but hopefully not too many. I converted several instances of const MsgPtr & to a simple MsgPtr. If the function wants to avoid the overhead of creating another reference, then it should just use a regular pointer instead of a ref counting ptr. There were a couple of instances where refcounted objects were created on the stack. This seems pretty dangerous since if you ever accidentally make a reference to that object with a ref counting pointer, bad things are bound to happen.

2010-04-02ruby: get "using namespace" out of headersNathan Binkert
In addition to obvious changes, this required a slight change to the slicc grammar to allow types with :: in them. Otherwise slicc barfs on std::string which we need for the headers that slicc generates.

2010-01-19ruby: new atomics implementationDerek Hower
This patch changes the way that Ruby handles atomic RMW instructions. This implementation, unlike the prior one, is protocol independent. It works by locking an address from the sequencer immediately after the read portion of an RMW completes. When that address is locked, the coherence controller will only satisfy requests coming from one port (e.g., the mandatory queue) and will ignore all others. After the write portion completed, the line is unlocked. This should also work with multi-line atomics, as long as the blocks are always acquired in the same order.
