2015-08-14	ruby: replace Address by Addr	Nilay Vaish
	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.
2014-10-16	mem: Dynamically determine page bytes in memory components	Andreas Hansson
	This patch takes a step towards an ISA-agnostic memory system by enabling the components to establish the page size after instantiation. The swap operation in the memory is now also allowing any granularity to avoid depending on the IntReg of the ISA.
2014-09-01	ruby: move files from ruby/system to ruby/structures	Nilay 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
2013-01-14	Ruby: remove reference to g_system_ptr from class Message	Nilay Vaish
	This patch was initiated so as to remove reference to g_system_ptr, the pointer to Ruby System that is used for getting the current time. That simple change actual requires changing a lot many things in slicc and garnet. All these changes are related to how time is handled. In most of the places, g_system_ptr has been replaced by another clock object. The changes have been done under the assumption that all the components in the memory system are on the same clock frequency, but the actual clocks might be distributed.
2012-12-11	ruby: add a prefetcher	Nilay Vaish
	This patch adds a prefetcher for the ruby memory system. The prefetcher is based on a prefetcher implemented by others (well, I don't know who wrote the original). The prefetcher does stride-based prefetching, both unit and non-unit. It obseves the misses in the cache and trains on these. After the training period is over, the prefetcher starts issuing prefetch requests to the controller.
