2018-09-07mem: Add a simple QoS-aware Memory ControllerMatteo Andreozzi
This patch implements QoSMemorySink: a simple generic QoS-aware memory controller which inherits from QoS::MemCtrl.

2018-09-07mem: Add a QoS-aware Memory Controller typeMatteo Andreozzi
This is the implementation of QoS algorithms support for gem5 memory objects. This change-list provides a framework for specifying QoS algorithm which can be used to prioritise service to specific masters in the memory controller. The QoS support implemented here is designed to be extendable so that new QoS algorithms can be easily plugged into the memory controller as "QoS Policies".

2018-09-07mem-cache: Create Skewed Assoc placement policyDaniel R. Carvalho
Create a class that implements the skewed associative placement policy. It uses the hash function and expansions of the skewing functions described in "Skewed-Associative caches", by Seznec. Only 8 skewing functions are implemented, and therefore if more are needed a hash function will be recursively applied on top of the output of one of these functions to generate different values. This is not optimal, and if more functions are needed it might be more effective to implement them.

2018-08-22mem: Add StreamID and SubstreamIDStanislaw Czerniawski
This patch adds StreamID and SubstreamID to Request. These fields can be used by a SMMU/IOMMU model to pick up the correct translation context for each request and they correspond to an ASID in a device. For this reason they have been merged together with the request asid in a union, so that a cpu will set the asid and a device will set the Stream and Substream ID.

The commented code contains bitrot. It is not clear how to fix the code so remove it. The code will not compile if the preprocessor defines are removed. The llocker and uulocker variables that are used as indices into the persistent_randomize array are undefined. It's not clear what they should be from the current code. 5ab13e2deb shows when the lines were last modified. The functionality contained in the comments probably have not been used since that time.

2018-07-19mem: Fix off-by-one error in checkFunctional, and simplify itRobert Kovacsics
There was an off-by-one error in the isRead() case, as `val_end` and `func_end` pointed to the last byte to write to (not one past the last byte), and thus `*_end - *_start` was not the length of the data to memcpy. This was correct in the case of val_start >= func_start && val_end <= func_end where `overlap_size = size`, but if it were (as the other cases suggest) `overlap_size = val_end - val_start`, then it would also be off by one. Also, the isWrite() case catered for this. I simplified the four ifs into one case which uses min/max (this is how I spotted the inconsistency).

2018-06-28mem: Add a memory delay simulatorAndreas Sandberg
Add a memory system component that delays traffic. The base functionality to delay packets is implemented in the abstract MemDelay class. This class exposes three methods that control packet delays: * delayReq(pkt) * delayResp(pkt) * delaySnoopResp(pkt) These methods should be specialized to implement delays for specific packet types. The class SimpleMemDelay uses the MemDelay base class to implement constant delays for read/write requests and responses. The intention is that these classes can be used for rapid prototyping of components that add a small fixed delay and the same throughput as the interconnect. I.e., any buffering done in the base class will be small and proportional to the introduced delay.

We need to determined whether an address range is fully contained or it overlaps with an address range in the address range in the mmap.

We also need to make sure that when we add a new port to the address range map, its address range does not overlap with any of the existing ports. This patch splits the function find() into two functions contains() and intersects() to implement this distinct functionality. It also changes the xbar and the physical memory to use the right function.

For example, when replacing a sector, all the blocks in this sector must be evicted. A replacement, however, does not always need to evict multiple blocks, as it is in the case of an insertion of a block whose sector is already present in the cache (i.e., its corresponding entry in the sector had not been brought in yet, so it was invalid).

2018-06-08mem-cache: Use ReplaceableEntry in findBlockBySetAndWayDaniel R. Carvalho
With a sector cache you can't find a block using only its set and way, as there is the sector offset to take into account. As all of these blocks inherit from ReplaceableEntry, the return type of this function has been updated. This function has also been declared closer to findBlock() due to their similar functionality.

2018-06-01mem-cache: Privatize extractSetDaniel R. Carvalho
Only BaseSetAssoc uses extractSet(). Besides, skewed caches need the way information to know which set an address is located at.

2018-06-01mem-cache: Create an address aware TempCacheBlkDaniel R. Carvalho
tempBlock has its member variables manually set in order to allow it to be used in the block address regeneration function. This is not necessary, and ti can be simply given the address, so it does not need to be aware of set and tag. This will simplify implementation of sector and skewed caches.

2018-05-31mem-cache: Replace block visitor with std::functionNikos Nikoleris
This change modifies forEachBlk tags function to accept std::function as parameter. It also adds an anyBlk tags function that given a condition, it iterates through the blocks and returns whether the condition is met. Finally, it uses forEachBlk to implement the print, computeStats and cleanupRefs functions that also work for the FALRU class.

2018-05-31mem-cache: Delegate block invalidation to block allocationNikos Nikoleris
For a block replacement we first select a victim block, we invalidate it and then populate it with the new information. Prior to this change BaseTags::insertBlock() did the invalidation and filled in the block with the new information. Now that the replacements stat is moved to the BaseCache, insertBlock does not need to perform the invalidation and as a result we can unify the block eviction code in BaseCache.
