These types are being replaced with uint64_t and int64_t.
|
|
This patch eliminates the type Address defined by the ruby memory system.
This memory system would now use the type Addr that is in use by the
rest of the system.

This is another step in the process of removing global variables
from Ruby to enable multiple RubySystem instances in a single simulation.
The list of abstract controllers is per-RubySystem and should be
represented that way, rather than as a global.
Since this is the last remaining Ruby global variable, the
src/mem/ruby/Common/Global.* files are also removed.
|
|
This is another step in the process of removing global variables
from Ruby to enable multiple RubySystem instances in a single simulation.
With possibly multiple RubySystem objects, we can no longer use a global
variable to find "the" RubySystem object. Instead, each Ruby component
has to carry a pointer to the RubySystem object to which it belongs.
|
|
There is another type Time in src/base class which results in a conflict.

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.

Couple of users observed segmentation fault when the simulator tries to
register the statistical variable m_IncompleteTimes. It seems that there
is some problem with the initialization of these variables when allocated
in the constructor.

Get rid of non-deterministic "stats" in ruby.stats output
such as time & date of run, elapsed & CPU time used,
and memory usage. These values cause spurious
miscomparisons when looking at output diffs (though
they don't affect regressions, since the regressions
pass/fail status currently ignores ruby.stats entirely).
Most of this information is already captured in other
places (time & date in stdout, elapsed time & mem usage
in stats.txt), where the regression script is smart
enough to filter it out. It seems easier to get rid of
the redundant output rather than teaching the
regression tester to ignore the same information in
two different places.

The patch started of with removing the global variables from the profiler for
profiling the miss latency of requests made to the cache. The corrresponding
histograms have been moved to the Sequencer. These are combined together when
the histograms are printed. Separate histograms are now maintained for
tracking latency of all requests together, of hits only and of misses only.
A particular set of histograms used to use the type GenericMachineType defined
in one of the protocol files. This patch removes this type. Now, everything
that relied on this type would use MachineType instead. To do this, SLICC has
been changed so that multiple machine types can be declared by a controller
in its preamble.
|
|
This patch removes per processor cycle count, histogram for filter stats,
histogram for multicasts, histogram for prefetch wait, some function
prototypes that do not have definitions.
|
|
The Profiler class does not need an event for dumping statistics
periodically. This is because there is a method for dumping statistics
for all the sim objects periodically. Since Ruby is a sim object, its
statistics are also included.
|
|
This moves event and transition count statistics for cache controllers to
gem5's statistics. It does the same for the statistics associated with the
memory controller in ruby.
All the cache/directory/dma controllers individually collect the event and
transition counts. A callback function, collateStats(), has been added that
is invoked on the controller version 0 of each controller class. This
function adds all the individual controller statistics to a vector
variables. All the code for registering the statistical variables and
collating them is generated by SLICC. The patch removes the files
*_Profiler.{cc,hh} and *_ProfileDumper.{cc,hh} which were earlier used for
collecting and dumping statistics respectively.
|
|
This patch changes the way cache statistics are collected in ruby.
As of now, there is separate entity called CacheProfiler which holds
statistical variables for caches. The CacheMemory class defines different
functions for accessing the CacheProfiler. These functions are then invoked
in the .sm files. I find this approach opaque and prone to error. Secondly,
we probably should not be paying the cost of a function call for recording
statistics.
Instead, this patch allows for accessing statistical variables in the
.sm files. The collection would become transparent. Secondly, it would happen
in place, so no function calls. The patch also removes the CacheProfiler class.

Due to recent changes to clocking system in Ruby and the way Ruby restores
state from a checkpoint, garnet was failing to run from a checkpointed state.
The problem is that Ruby resets the time to zero while warming up the caches.
If any component records a local copy of the time (read calls curCycle())
before the simulation has started, then that component will not operate until
that time is reached. In the context of this particular patch, the Garnet
Network class calls curCycle() at multiple places. Any non-operational
component can block in requests in the memory system, which the system
interprets as a deadlock. This patch makes changes so that Garnet can
successfully run from checkpointed state.
It adds a globally visible time at which the actual execution started. This
time is initialized in RubySystem::startup() function. This variable is only
meant for components with in Ruby. This replaces the private variable that
was maintained within Garnet since it is not possible to figure out the
correct time when the value of this variable can be set.
The patch also does away with all cases where curCycle() is called with in
some Ruby component before the system has actually started executing. This
is required due to the quirky manner in which ruby restores from a checkpoint.

The histogram for tracking outstanding counts per cycle is maintained
in the profiler. For a parallel implementation of the memory system, we
need that this histogram is maintained locally. Hence it will now be
kept in the sequencer itself. The resulting histograms will be merged
when the stats are printed.
|

This patch enables warnings for missing declarations. To avoid issues
with SWIG-generated code, the warning is only applied to non-SWIG
code.
|
|
This patch address the most important name shadowing warnings (as
produced when using gcc/clang with -Wshadow). There are many
locations where constructor parameters and function parameters shadow
local variables, but these are left unchanged.

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.
|
|
This patch is as of now the final patch in the series of patches that replace
Time with Cycles.This patch further replaces Time with Cycles in Sequencer,
Profiler, different protocols and related entities.
Though Time has not been completely removed, the places where it is in use
seem benign as of now.

This patch modifies the Histogram class' add() function so that it can add
linear histograms as well. The function assumes that the left end point of
the ranges of the two histograms are the same. It also assumes that when
the ranges of the two histogram are changed to accomodate an element not in
the range, the factor used in changing the range is same for both the
histograms.
This function is then used in removing one of the calls to the global
profiler*. The histograms for recording the delays incurred in processing
different requests are now maintained by the controllers. The profiler
adds these histograms when it needs to print the stats.
|
|
This patch does several things. First, the counter for fully busy cycles for a
controller is now kept with in the controller, instead of being part of the profiler.
Second, the topology class no longer keeps an array of controllers which was only
used for printing stats. Instead, ruby system will now ask each controller to print
the stats. Thirdly, the statistical variable for recording how many different types
were created is being moved in to the controller from the profiler. Note that for
printing, the profiler will collate results from different controllers.

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.
|
|
This patch adds support to ruby so that the statistics maintained by ruby
are reset/dumped when the statistics for the rest of the system are
reset/dumped. For resetting the statistics, ruby now provides the
resetStats() function that a sim object can provide. As a consequence, the
clearStats() function has been removed from RubySystem. For dumping stats,
Ruby now adds a callback event to the dumpStatsQueue. The exit callback that
ruby used to add earlier is being removed.

When casting objects in the generated SWIG interfaces, SWIG uses
classical C-style casts ( (Foo *)bar; ). In some cases, this can
degenerate into the equivalent of a reinterpret_cast (mainly if only a
forward declaration of the type is available). This usually works for
most compilers, but it is known to break if multiple inheritance is
used anywhere in the object hierarchy.
This patch introduces the cxx_header attribute to Python SimObject
definitions, which should be used to specify a header to include in
the SWIG interface. The header should include the declaration of the
wrapped object. We currently don't enforce header the use of the
header attribute, but a warning will be generated for objects that do
not use it.

This patch makes some of the members (profiler, network, memory vector)
of ruby system non-static.

|
This patch moves Ruby System from being a SimObject to recently introduced
ClockedObject.
|
|
This patch removes RubyEventQueue. Consumer objects now rely on RubySystem
or themselves for scheduling events.

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.

This patch addresses a number of minor issues that cause problems when
compiling with clang >= 3.0 and gcc >= 4.6. Most importantly, it
avoids using the deprecated ext/hash_map and instead uses
unordered_map (and similarly so for the hash_set). To make use of the
new STL containers, g++ and clang has to be invoked with "-std=c++0x",
and this is now added for all gcc versions >= 4.6, and for clang >=
3.0. For gcc >= 4.3 and <= 4.5 and clang <= 3.0 we use the tr1
unordered_map to avoid the deprecation warning.
The addition of c++0x in turn causes a few problems, as the
compiler is more stringent and adds a number of new warnings. Below,
the most important issues are enumerated:
1) the use of namespaces is more strict, e.g. for isnan, and all
headers opening the entire namespace std are now fixed.
2) another other issue caused by the more stringent compiler is the
narrowing of the embedded python, which used to be a char array,
and is now unsigned char since there were values larger than 128.
3) a particularly odd issue that arose with the new c++0x behaviour is
found in range.hh, where the operator< causes gcc to complain about
the template type parsing (the "<" is interpreted as the beginning
of a template argument), and the problem seems to be related to the
begin/end members introduced for the range-type iteration, which is
a new feature in c++11.
As a minor update, this patch also fixes the build flags for the clang
debug target that used to be shared with gcc and incorrectly use
"-ggdb".

This patch removes some of the unused typedefs. It also moves
some of the typedefs from Global.hh to TypeDefines.hh. The patch
also eliminates the file NodeID.hh.

This patch replaces RUBY with PROTOCOL in all the SConscript files as
the environment variable that decides whether or not certain components
of the simulator are compiled.

This patch rpovides functional access support in Ruby. Currently only
the M5Port of RubyPort supports functional accesses. The support for
functional through the PioPort will be added as a separate patch.

The goal of the patch is to do away with the CacheMsg class currently in use
in coherence protocols. In place of CacheMsg, the RubyRequest class will used.
This class is already present in slicc_interface/RubyRequest.hh. In fact,
objects of class CacheMsg are generated by copying values from a RubyRequest
object.
|
|
This patch converts CacheRequestType to RubyRequestType so that both the
protocol dependent and independent code makes use of the same request type.
|
|
This patch converts AccessModeType to RubyAccessMode so that both the
protocol dependent and independent code uses the same access mode.
|
|
This patch removes libruby_internal.hh, libruby.hh and libruby.cc. It moves
the contents to libruby.hh to RubyRequest.hh and RubyRequest.cc files.

Fixed L2 cache miss profiling for the MOESI_CMP_token protocol
|
|
This patch adds back to ruby the capability to understand the response time
for messages that hit in different levels of the cache heirarchy.
Specifically add support for the MI_example, MOESI_hammer, and MOESI_CMP_token
protocols.

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.
