This patch changes CacheRecorder, CacheMemory, CacheControllers
so that the contents of a cache can be recorded for checkpointing
purposes.
|
|
This patch changes the implementation of Ruby's recvTiming() function so
that it pushes a packet in to the Sequencer instead of a RubyRequest. This
requires changes in the Sequencer's makeRequest() and issueRequest()
functions, as they also need to operate on a Packet instead of RubyRequest.
|
|
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.

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.

|
Removed static members in RubyPort and removed the ruby request unique id.
|
|
Modified ruby's tracing support to no longer rely on the RubySystem map
to convert a sequencer string name to a sequencer pointer. As a
temporary solution, the code uses the sim_object find function.
Eventually, we should develop a better fix.

2. Reintroduced RMW_Read and RMW_Write
3. Defined -2 in the Sequencer as well as made a note about mandatory queue
Did not address the issues in the slicc because remaking the atomics altogether to allow
multiple processors to issue atomic requests at once

other than LLSC

This was done with an automated process, so there could be things that were
done in this tree in the past that didn't make it. One known regression
is that atomic memory operations do not seem to work properly anymore.

This changeset also includes a lot of work from Derek Hower <drh5@cs.wisc.edu>
RubyMemory is now both a driver for Ruby and a port for M5. Changed
makeRequest/hitCallback interface. Brought packets (superficially)
into the sequencer. Modified tester infrastructure to be packet based.
and Ruby can be used together through the example ruby_se.py
script. SPARC parallel applications work, and the timing *seems* right
from combined M5/Ruby debug traces. To run,
% build/ALPHA_SE/m5.debug configs/example/ruby_se.py -c
tests/test-progs/hello/bin/alpha/linux/hello -n 4 -t

This basically means changing all #include statements and changing
autogenerated code so that it generates the correct paths. Because
slicc generates #includes, I had to hard code the include paths to
mem/protocol.

We eventually plan to replace the m5 cache hierarchy with the GEMS
hierarchy, but for now we will make both live alongside eachother.
