2015-08-30ruby: slicc: avoid duplicate code for function argument checkNilay Vaish
Both FuncCallExprAST and MethodCallExprAST had code for checking the arguments with which a function is being called. The patch does away with this duplication. Now the code for checking function call arguments resides in the Func class.

2015-08-14ruby: slicc: use default argument valueNilay Vaish
Before this patch, while one could declare / define a function with default argument values, but the actual function call would require one to specify all the arguments. This patch changes the check for function arguments. Now a function call needs to specify arguments that are at least as much as those with default values and at most the total number of arguments taken as input by the function.

2015-08-14ruby: drop the [] notation for lookup function.Nilay Vaish
This is in preparation for adding a second arugment to the lookup function for the CacheMemory class. The change to *.sm files was made using the following sed command: sed -i 's/\[\([0-9A-Za-z._()]*\)\]/.lookup(\1)/' src/mem/protocol/*.sm
2015-08-14ruby: replace Address by AddrNilay 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.
2015-08-14ruby: Expose MessageBuffers as SimObjectsJoel Hestness
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.
2015-08-14ruby: Change PerfectCacheMemory::lookup to return pointerJoel Hestness
CacheMemory and DirectoryMemory lookup functions return pointers to entries stored in the memory. Bring PerfectCacheMemory in line with this convention, and clean up SLICC code generation that was in place solely to handle references like that which was returned by PerfectCacheMemory::lookup.
2015-08-11ruby: slicc: allow mathematical operations on TicksNilay Vaish
2015-07-20slicc: fix error in conflicing symbol declarationBrad Beckmann
2015-07-20slicc: enable overloading in functions not in classesBrad Beckmann
For many years the slicc symbol table has supported overloaded functions in external classes. This patch extends that support to functions that are not part of classes (a.k.a. no parent). For example, this support allows slicc to understand that mapAddressToRange is overloaded and the NodeID is an optional parameter.
2015-07-20slicc: improved stalling support in protocolsBrad Beckmann
Adds features to allow protocols to reschedule controllers when conditionally stalling within inport logic or actions. Also insures that resource and protocol stalls are re-evaluated the next cycle.
2015-07-20slicc: support for arbitrary DPRINTF flags (not just RubySlicc)David Hashe
This patch allows DPRINTFs to be used in SLICC state machines similar to how they are used by the rest of gem5. Previously all DPRINTFs in the .sm files had to use the RubySlicc flag.
2015-07-20slicc: support for local variable declarations in action blocksDavid Hashe
2015-07-20slicc: support for multiple cache entry types in the same state machineDavid Hashe
To have multiple Entry types (e.g., a cache Entry type and a directory Entry type), just declare one of them as a secondary type by using the pair 'main="false"', e.g.: structure(DirEntry, desc="...", interface="AbstractCacheEntry", main="false") { ...and the primary type would be declared: structure(Entry, desc="...", interface="AbstractCacheEntry") {
2015-07-20slicc: Fix bug in enqueue and peek statements.David Hashe
These were not generating the correct c names for types declared within a machine scope.
2015-07-20slicc: fix missing inline function in LocalVariableASTDavid Hashe
2015-07-20slicc: improve support for prefix operationsDavid Hashe
This patch fixes the type handling when prefix operations are used. Previously prefix operators would assume a void return type, which made it impossible to combine prefix operations with other expressions. This patch allows SLICC programmers to use prefix operations more naturally.
2015-07-20slicc: support for transitions with a wildcard next stateDavid Hashe
This patches adds support for transitions of the form: transition(START, EVENTS, *) { ACTIONS } This allows a machine to collapse states that differ only in the next state transition to collapse into one, and can help shorten/simplfy some protocols significantly. When * is encountered as an end state of a transition, the next state is determined by calling the machine-specific getNextState function. The next state is determined before any actions of the transition execute, and therefore the next state calculation cannot depend on any of the transition actions.
2015-07-20slicc: support for multiple message types on the same bufferDavid Hashe
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) { ... }
2015-08-01slicc: fatal->panic on invalid transitionsBrad Beckmann
2015-07-20slicc: isinstance bugfixDavid Hashe
This fix prevents spurious errors when searching for a symbol that may be located in one of multiple symbol tables.
2015-07-10ruby: replace global g_abs_controls with per-RubySystem varBrandon Potter
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.
2015-07-10ruby: replace global g_system_ptr with per-object pointersBrandon Potter
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.
2015-07-10ruby: remove extra whitespace and correct misspelled wordsBrandon Potter
2015-07-04ruby: drop NetworkMessage classNilay Vaish
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.
2015-06-25ruby: slicc: remove READMENilay Vaish
No longer maintained. Updates are only made to the wiki page. So being dropped.
2014-11-06ruby: interface with classic memory controllerNilay Vaish
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.
2014-11-06ruby: remove the function functionalReadBuffers()Nilay Vaish
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.
2014-11-06ruby: slicc: allow adding a bool to an int, like C++.Nilay Vaish
2014-10-16mem: Use shared_ptr for Ruby Message classesAndreas Hansson
This patch transitions the Ruby Message and its derived classes from the ad-hoc RefCountingPtr to the c++11 shared_ptr. There are no changes in behaviour, and the code modifications are mainly replacing "new" with "make_shared". The cloning of derived messages is slightly changed as they previously relied on overriding the base-class through covariant return types.
2014-09-01ruby: message buffers: significant changesNilay Vaish
This patch is the final patch in a series of patches. The aim of the series is to make ruby more configurable than it was. More specifically, the connections between controllers are not at all possible (unless one is ready to make significant changes to the coherence protocol). Moreover the buffers themselves are magically connected to the network inside the slicc code. These connections are not part of the configuration file. This patch makes changes so that these connections will now be made in the python configuration files associated with the protocols. This requires each state machine to expose the message buffers it uses for input and output. So, the patch makes these buffers configurable members of the machines. The patch drops the slicc code that usd to connect these buffers to the network. Now these buffers are exposed to the python configuration system as Master and Slave ports. In the configuration files, any master port can be connected any slave port. The file pyobject.cc has been modified to take care of allocating the actual message buffer. This is inline with how other port connections work.
2014-09-01ruby: slicc: change the way configurable members are specifiedNilay Vaish
There are two changes this patch makes to the way configurable members of a state machine are specified in SLICC. The first change is that the data member declarations will need to be separated by a semi-colon instead of a comma. Secondly, the default value to be assigned would now use SLICC's assignment operator i.e. ':='.
2014-09-01ruby: slicc: improve the grammarNilay Vaish
This patch changes the grammar for SLICC so as to remove some of the redundant / duplicate rules. In particular rules for object/variable declaration and class member declaration have been unified. Similarly, the rules for a general function and a class method have been unified. One more change is in the priority of two rules. The first rule is on declaring a function with all the params typed and named. The second rule is on declaring a function with all the params only typed. Earlier the second rule had a higher priority. Now the first rule has a higher priority.
2014-09-01ruby: slicc: donot prefix machine name to variablesNilay Vaish
This changeset does away with prefixing of member variables of state machines with the identity of the machine itself.
2014-09-01ruby: remove unused toString() from AbstractControllerNilay Vaish
2014-09-01ruby: move files from ruby/system to ruby/structuresNilay 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
2014-05-31style: eliminate equality tests with true and falseSteve Reinhardt
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.

It had an unnecessary pairs token which is being removed.
2014-04-08ruby: slicc: change enqueue statementNilay Vaish
As of now, the enqueue statement can take in any number of 'pairs' as argument. But we only use the pair in which latency is the key. This latency is allowed to be either a fixed integer or a member variable of controller in which the expression appears. This patch drops the use of pairs in an enqueue statement. Instead, an expression is allowed which will be interpreted to be the latency of the enqueue. This expression can anything allowed by slicc including a constant integer or a member variable.
