All the implementations were doing the same things.

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.

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.

The functionality of updating and returning the delay cycles would now be
performed by the dequeue() function itself.

Upon aggregating records, serialize system's cache-block size, as the
cache-block size can be different when restoring from a checkpoint. This way,
we can correctly read all records when restoring from a checkpoints, even if
the cache-block size is different.
Note, that it is only possible to restore from a checkpoint if the
desired cache-block size is smaller or equal to the cache-block size
when the checkpoint was taken; we can split one larger request into
multiple small ones, but it is not reliable to do the opposite.

This patch moves the Ruby-related debug flags to the ruby
sub-directory, and also removes the state SConsopts that add the
no-longer-used NO_VECTOR_BOUNDS_CHECK.

Each consumer object maintains a set of tick values when the object is supposed
to wakeup and do some processing. As of now, the object accesses this set both
when scheduling a wakeup event and when the object actually wakes up. The set
is accessed during wakeup to remove the current tick value from the set. This
functionality is now being moved to the scheduling function where ticks are
removed at a later time.
|
|
This helps in configuring the network interfaces from the python script and
these objects no longer rely on the network object for the timing information.

Piobus was recently added to se scripts for ruby so that the interrupt
controller can be connected to something (required since the interrupt
controller sends address range messages). This patch removes the piobus
and instead, the pio port of ruby port will now ignore the range change
messages in se mode.
|
|
|
|
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.

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.

Currently, the interrupt controller in x86 is connected to the io bus
directly. Therefore the packets between the io devices and the interrupt
controller do not go through ruby. This patch changes ruby port so that
these packets arrive at the ruby port first, which then routes them to their
destination. Note that the patch does not make these packets go through the
ruby network. That would happen in a subsequent patch.
|
|
This patch simplfies the retry logic in the RubyPort, avoiding
redundant attributes, and enforcing more stringent checks on the
interactions with the normal ports. The patch also simplifies the
routing done by the RubyPort, using the port identifiers instead of a
heavy-weight sender state.
The patch also fixes a bug in the sending of responses from PIO
ports. Previously these responses bypassed the queue in the queued
port, and ignored the return value, potentially leading to response
packets being lost.

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.

At several places, there are functions that take a cycle value as input
and performs some computation. Along with each such function, another
function was being defined that simply added one more cycle to input and
computed the same function. This patch removes this second copy of the
function. Places where these functions were being called have been updated
to use the original function with argument being current cycle + 1.

The first two levels (L0, L1) are private to the core, the third level (L2)is
possibly shared. The protocol supports clustered designs. For example, one
can have two sets of two cores. Each core has an L0 and L1 cache. There are
two L2 controllers where each set accesses only one of the L2 controllers.
|
|
A cluster over here means a set of controllers that can be accessed only by a
certain set of cores. For example, consider a two level hierarchy. Assume
there are 4 L1 controllers (private) and 2 L2 controllers. We can have two
different hierarchies here:
a. the address space is partitioned between the two L2 controllers. Each L1
controller accesses both the L2 controllers. In this case, each L1 controller
is a cluster initself.
b. both the L2 controllers can cache any address. An L1 controller has access
to only one of the L2 controllers. In this case, each L2 controller
along with the L1 controllers that access it, form a cluster.
This patch allows for each controller to have a cluster ID, which is 0 by
default. By setting the cluster ID properly, one can instantiate hierarchies
with clusters. Note that the coherence protocol might have to be changed as
well.

This patch replaces max_in_port_rank with the number of inports. The use of
max_in_port_rank was causing spurious re-builds and incorrect initialization
of variables in ruby related regression tests. This was due to the variable
value being used across threads while compiling when it was not meant to be.
Since the number of inports is state machine specific value, this problem
should get solved.

This patch fixes a problem where in Garnet, the enqueue time in the
VCallocator and the SWallocator which is of type Cycles was being stored
inside a variable with int type.
This lead to a known problem restoring checkpoints with garnet & the fixed
pipeline enabled. That value was really big and didn't fit in the variable
overflowing it, therefore some conditions on the VC allocation stage & the
SW allocation stage were not met and the packets didn't advance through the
network, leading to a deadlock panic right after the checkpoint was restored.

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 Topology source sets up input and output buffers for each of the external
nodes of a topology by indexing on Ruby's generated controller unique IDs.
These unique IDs are found by adding the MachineType_base_number to the version
number of each controller (see any generated *_Controller.cc - init() calls
getToNetQueue and getFromNetQueue using m_version + base). However, the
Topology object used the cntrl_id - which is required to be unique across all
controllers - to index the controllers list as they are being connected to
their input and output buffers. If the cntrl_ids did not match the Ruby unique
ID, the throttles end up connected to incorrectly indexed nodes in the network,
resulting in packets traversing incorrect network paths. This patch fixes the
Topology indexing scheme by using the Ruby unique ID to match that of the
SimpleNetwork buffer vectors.
|
|
The previous changeset (9863:9483739f83ee) used STL vector containers to
dynamically allocate stats in the Ruby SimpleNetwork, Switch and Throttle. For
gcc versions before at least 4.6.3, this causes the standard vector allocator
to call Stats copy constructors (a no-no, since stats should be allocated in
the body of each SimObject instance). Since the size of these stats arrays is
known at compile time (NOTE: after code generation), this patch changes their
allocation to be static rather than using an STL vector.

This message size type does not work well with one of the statistical
variables. It also seems unnecessary.

This patch makes it possible to once again build gem5 without any
ISA. The main purpose is to enable work around the interconnect and
memory system without having to build any CPU models or device models.
The regress script is updated to include the NULL ISA target. Currently
no regressions make use of it, but all the testers could (and perhaps
should) transition to it.

Some of the code in StateMachine.py file is added to all the controllers and
is independent of the controller definition. This code is being moved to the
AbstractController class which is the parent class of all controllers.
|

This patch removes the notion of a peer block size and instead sets
the cache line size on the system level.
Previously the size was set per cache, and communicated through the
interconnect. There were plenty checks to ensure that everyone had the
same size specified, and these checks are now removed. Another benefit
that is not yet harnessed is that the cache line size is now known at
construction time, rather than after the port binding. Hence, the
block size can be locally stored and does not have to be queried every
time it is used.
A follow-on patch updates the configuration scripts accordingly.
|
|
This code seems not to be of any use now. There is no path in the simulator
that allows for reconfiguring the network. A better approach would be to
take a checkpoint and start the simulation from the checkpoint with the new
configuration.

This patch adds the notion of source- and derived-clock domains to the
ClockedObjects. As such, all clock information is moved to the clock
domain, and the ClockedObjects are grouped into domains.
The clock domains are either source domains, with a specific clock
period, or derived domains that have a parent domain and a divider
(potentially chained). For piece of logic that runs at a derived clock
(a ratio of the clock its parent is running at) the necessary derived
clock domain is created from its corresponding parent clock
domain. For now, the derived clock domain only supports a divider,
thus ensuring a lower speed compared to its parent. Multiplier
functionality implies a PLL logic that has not been modelled yet
(create a separate clock instead).
The clock domains should be used as a mechanism to provide a
controllable clock source that affects clock for every clocked object
lying beneath it. The clock of the domain can (in a future patch) be
controlled by a handler responsible for dynamic frequency scaling of
the respective clock domains.
All the config scripts have been retro-fitted with clock domains. For
the System a default SrcClockDomain is created. For CPUs that run at a
different speed than the system, there is a seperate clock domain
created. This domain incorporates the CPU and the associated
caches. As before, Ruby runs under its own clock domain.
The clock period of all domains are pre-computed, such that no virtual
functions or multiplications are needed when calling
clockPeriod. Instead, the clock period is pre-computed when any
changes occur. For this to be possible, each clock domain tracks its
children.
|
|
This patch removes the explicit setting of the clock period for
certain instances of CoherentBus, NonCoherentBus and IOCache where the
specified clock is same as the default value of the system clock. As
all the values used are the defaults, there are no performance
changes. There are similar cases where the toL2Bus is set to use the
parent CPU clock which is already the default behaviour.
The main motivation for these simplifications is to ease the
introduction of clock domains.
