Standardize all header guards in the mem directory according to the most
frequent patterns. In general they have the form:
mem: __FOLDER_TREE_FILE_NAME_HH__
ruby: __FOLDER_TREE_FILENAME_HH__

Ruby has no support for atomic_noncaching accesses, which prevents using
it with kvm-cpu. This patch fixes this by directly forwarding atomic
requests from the ruby port/sequencer to the corresponding directory
based on the destination address of the packet.

These files aren't a collection of miscellaneous stuff, they're the
definition of the Logger interface, and a few utility macros for
calling into that interface (panic, warn, etc.).

Previously the directory covered a flat address range that always
started from address 0. This change adds a vector of address ranges
with interleaving and hashing that each directory keeps track of and
the necessary flexibility to support systems with non continuous
memory ranges.

Allow usage of packet class in ruby for convenience purposes. This may be
used to access members of the packet/request class (e.g., via helper
functions) and/or push protocol specific information to the packets
SenderState without needing to modify SLICC types and protocols in multiple
locations.

Ruby's controller block_on behavior aimed to block MessageBuffer requests into
SLICC controllers when a Locked_RMW was in flight. Unfortunately, this
functionality only partially works: When non-Locked_RMW memory accesses are
issued to the sequencer to an address with an in-flight Locked_RMW, the
sequencer may pass those accesses through to the controller. At the controller,
a number of incorrect activities can occur depending on the protocol. In
MOESI_hammer, for example, an intermediate IFETCH will cause an L1D to L2
transfer, which cannot be serviced, because the block_on functionality blocks
the trigger queue, resulting in a deadlock. Further, if an intermediate store
arrives (e.g. from a separate SMT thread), the sequencer allows the request
through to the controller, and the atomicity of the Locked_RMW may be broken.
To avoid these problems, disallow the Sequencer from passing any memory
accesses to the controller besides Locked_RMW_Write when a Locked_RMW is in-
flight.

Add 4 power states to the ClockedObject, provides necessary access functions
to check and update the power state. Default power state is UNDEFINED, it is
responsibility of the respective simulation model to provide the startup state
and any other logic for state change.
Add number of transition stat.
Add distribution of time spent in clock gated state.
Add power state residency stat.
Add dump call back function to allow stats update of distribution and residency
stats.

Changeset 4872dbdea907 replaced Address by Addr, but did not make changes to
print statements. So the addresses which were being printed in hex earlier
along with their line address, were now being printed in decimals. This patch
adds a function printAddress(Addr) that can be used to print the address in hex
along with the lines address. This function has been put to use in some of the
places. At other places, change has been made to print just the address in
hex.

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.

The eventual aim of this change is to pass RubySystem pointers through to
objects generated from the SLICC protocol code.
Because some of these objects need to dereference their RubySystem pointers,
they need access to the System.hh header file.
In src/mem/ruby/SConscript, the MakeInclude function creates single-line header
files in the build directory that do nothing except include the corresponding
header file from the source tree.
However, SLICC also generates a list of header files from its symbol table, and
writes it to mem/protocol/Types.hh in the build directory. This code assumes
that the header file name is the same as the class name.
The end result of this is the many of the generated slicc files try to include
RubySystem.hh, when the file they really need is System.hh. The path of least
resistence is just to rename System.hh to RubySystem.hh.
--HG--
rename : src/mem/ruby/system/System.cc => src/mem/ruby/system/RubySystem.cc
rename : src/mem/ruby/system/System.hh => src/mem/ruby/system/RubySystem.hh

The sequencer takes care of llsc accesses by calling upon functions
from the CacheMemory. This is unnecessary once the required CacheEntry object
is available. Thus some of the calls to findTagInSet() are avoided.

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.

Avoid clash between type Addr and variable name Addr.

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.

Context IDs used to be declared as ad hoc (usually as int). This

It is perfectly valid to compare the same message and the greater than
operator should work correctly.
|
|
Added dprintfs and asserts for identifying stall and wait bugs.
|
|
It was previously possible for a stalled message to be reordered after an
incomming message. This patch ensures that any stalled message stays in its
original request order.
|
|
This patch allows SLICC protocols to use more than one message type with a
message buffer. For example, you can declare two in ports as such:
in_port(ResponseQueue_in, ResponseMsg, responseFromDir, rank=3) { ... }
in_port(tgtResponseQueue_in, TgtResponseMsg, responseFromDir, rank=2) { ... }
|
|
This helper function is very useful converting address offsets to integers
that can be used for protocol specific destination mapping.
|
|
This patch drops the NetworkMessage class. The relevant data members and functions
have been moved to the Message class, which was the parent of NetworkMessage.
|
|
This structure's only purpose was to provide a comparison function for
ordering messages in the MessageBuffer. The comparison function is now
being moved to the Message class itself. So we no longer require this
structure.

I (Nilay) had mistakenly added a data member to the Message class in revision c1694b4032a6.

The processes of warming up and cooling down Ruby caches are simulation-wide
processes, not just RubySystem instance-specific processes. Thus, the warm-up
and cool-down variables should be globally visible to any Ruby components
participating in either process. Make these variables static members and track
the warm-up and cool-down processes as appropriate.
This patch also has two side benefits:
1) It removes references to the RubySystem g_system_ptr, which are problematic
for allowing multiple RubySystem instances in a single simulation. Warmup and
cooldown variables being static (global) reduces the need for instance-specific
dereferences through the RubySystem.
2) From the AbstractController, it removes local RubySystem pointers, which are
used inconsistently with other uses of the RubySystem: 11 other uses reference
the RubySystem with the g_system_ptr. Only sequencers have local pointers.

UBSan complains about negative value being shifted

Restoring from a checkpoint with ruby + the DRAMCtrl memory model was not
working, because ruby and DRAMCtrl disagreed on the current tick during warmup.
Since there is no reason to do timing requests during warmup, use functional
requests instead.

This patch fixes a long-standing isue with the port flow
control. Before this patch the retry mechanism was shared between all
different packet classes. As a result, a snoop response could get
stuck behind a request waiting for a retry, even if the send/recv
functions were split. This caused message-dependent deadlocks in
stress-test scenarios.
The patch splits the retry into one per packet (message) class. Thus,
sendTimingReq has a corresponding recvReqRetry, sendTimingResp has
recvRespRetry etc. Most of the changes to the code involve simply
clarifying what type of request a specific object was accepting.
The biggest change in functionality is in the cache downstream packet
queue, facing the memory. This queue was shared by requests and snoop
responses, and it is now split into two queues, each with their own
flow control, but the same physical MasterPort. These changes fixes
the previously seen deadlocks.

This patch takes a first step in tightening up how we use the data
pointer in write packets. A const getter is added for the pointer
itself (getConstPtr), and a number of member functions are also made
const accordingly. In a range of places throughout the memory system
the new member is used.
The patch also removes the unused isReadWrite function.
|
|
This patch removes the parameter that enables bypassing the null check
in the Packet::getPtr method. A number of call sites assume the value
to be non-null.
The one odd case is the RubyTester, which issues zero-sized
prefetches(!), and despite being reads they had no valid data
pointer. This is now fixed, but the size oddity remains (unless anyone
object or has any good suggestions).
Finally, in the Ruby Sequencer, appropriate checks are made for flush
packets as they have no valid data pointer.

This patch is the final in the series. The whole series and this patch in
particular were written with the aim of interfacing ruby's directory controller
with the memory controller in the classic memory system. This is being done
since ruby's memory controller has not being kept up to date with the changes
going on in DRAMs. Classic's memory controller is more up to date and
supports multiple different types of DRAM. This also brings classic and
ruby ever more close. The patch also changes ruby's memory controller to
expose the same interface.

This function was added when I had incorrectly arrived at the conclusion
that such a function can improve the chances of a functional read succeeding.
As was later realized, this is not possible in the current setup. While the
code using this function was dropped long back, this function was not. Hence
the patch.
