2012-02-10Ruby: Remove isTagPresent() calls from Sequencer.ccNilay Vaish
This patch removes the calls to isTagPresent() from Sequencer.cc. These calls are made just for setting the cache block to have been most recently used. The calls have been folded in to the function setMRU().
2012-02-10MESI: Add queues for stalled requestsNilay Vaish
This patch adds support for stalling the requests queued up at different controllers for the MESI CMP directory protocol. Earlier the controllers would recycle the requests using some fixed latency. This results in younger requests getting serviced first at times, and can result in starvation. Instead all the requests that need a particular block to be in a stable state are moved to a separate queue, where they wait till that block returns to a stable state and then they are processed.
2012-02-09MEM: Remove onRetryList from BusPort and rely on retryListAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the onRetryList field from the BusPort class and entirely relies on the retryList which holds all ports that are waiting to retry. The onRetryList field and the retryList were previously used with overloaded functionalities and only one is really needed (there were also checks to assert they held the same information). After this patch the bus ports will be split into master and slave ports and this simplifies that transition.

2012-01-31clang: Enable compiling gem5 using clang 2.9 and 3.0Koan-Sin Tan
This patch adds the necessary flags to the SConstruct and SConscript files for compiling using clang 2.9 and later (on Ubuntu et al and OSX XCode 4.2), and also cleans up a bunch of compiler warnings found by clang. Most of the warnings are related to hidden virtual functions, comparisons with unsigneds >= 0, and if-statements with empty bodies. A number of mismatches between struct and class are also fixed. clang 2.8 is not working as it has problems with class names that occur in multiple namespaces (e.g. Statistics in kernel_stats.hh). clang has a bug (http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=7247) which causes confusion between the container std::set and the function Packet::set, and this is currently addressed by not including the entire namespace std, but rather selecting e.g. "using std::vector" in the appropriate places.
2012-01-31MEM: Remove the otherPort from the cache portsAndreas Hansson
This patch is a very straight-forward simplification, removing the unecessary otherPort pointer from the cache port. The pointer was only used to forward range changes, and the address range is fixed for the cache. Removing the pointer simplifies the transition to master/slave ports.
2012-01-31CheckerCPU: Re-factor CheckerCPU to be compatible with current gem5Geoffrey Blake
Brings the CheckerCPU back to life to allow FS and SE checking of the O3CPU. These changes have only been tested with the ARM ISA. Other ISAs potentially require modification.

2012-01-30MEM: Make the RubyPort physMemPort a PioPort instead of M5PortAndreas Hansson
This patch makes the physMemPort of the RubyPort a PioPort rather than an M5Port. This reflects the fact that the M5Port and PioPort have different roles. The M5Port is really a coherent slave that is connected to the CPUs and other coherent masters of the system, e.g. DMA ports. The PioPort, on the other hand, is a master port that is connected to the memory and other slaves, for example the pio devices. This simplifies future changes into master/slave ports and is consistent with the port roles throughout the system.

2012-01-12Fix memory corruption issue with CopyStringOut()Mitchell Hayenga
CopyStringOut() improperly indexed setting the null character, would result in zeroing a random byte of memory after(out of bounds) the character array.
2012-01-25Mem: Add simple bandwidth stats to PhysicalMemoryAli Saidi
2012-01-23O3, Ruby: Forward invalidations from Ruby to O3 CPUNilay Vaish
This patch implements the functionality for forwarding invalidations and replacements from the L1 cache of the Ruby memory system to the O3 CPU. The implementation adds a list of ports to RubyPort. Whenever a replacement or an invalidation is performed, the L1 cache forwards this to all the ports, which is the LSQ in case of the O3 CPU.
2012-01-23MemCmd: Add a command for invalidation requests to LSQNilay Vaish
This command will be sent from the memory system (Ruby) to the LSQ of an O3 CPU so that the LSQ, if it needs to, invalidates the address in the request packet.
2012-01-17MEM: Make the bus default port yet another portAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the idiosyncratic nature of the default bus port and makes it yet another port in the list of interfaces. Rather than having a specific pointer to the default port we merely track the identifier of this port. This change makes future port diversification easier and overall cleans up the bus code.
2012-01-17MEM: Make the bus bridge unidirectional and fixed address rangeAndreas Hansson
This patch makes the bus bridge uni-directional and specialises the bus ports to be a master port and a slave port. This greatly simplifies the assumptions on both sides as either port only has to deal with requests or responses. The following patches introduce the notion of master and slave ports, and would not be possible without this split of responsibilities. In making the bridge unidirectional, the address range mechanism of the bridge is also changed. For the cases where communication is taking place both ways, an additional bridge is needed. This causes issues with the existing mechanism, as the busses cannot determine when to stop iterating the address updates from the two bridges. To avoid this issue, and also greatly simplify the specification, the bridge now has a fixed set of address ranges, specified at creation time.
2012-01-17MEM: Remove the functional ports from the memory systemWilliam Wang
The functional ports are no longer used and this patch cleans up the legacy that is still present in buses, memories, CPUs etc. Note that this does not refer to the class FunctionalPort (already removed), but rather ports with the name (and use) functional.
2012-01-17MEM: Separate queries for snooping and address rangesAndreas Hansson
This patch simplifies the address-range determination mechanism and also unifies the naming across ports and devices. It further splits the queries for determining if a port is snooping and what address ranges it responds to (aiming towards a separation of cache-maintenance ports and pure memory-mapped ports). Default behaviours are such that most ports do not have to define isSnooping, and master ports need not implement getAddrRanges.
2012-01-17MEM: Remove Port removeConn and MemObject deletePortRefsAndreas Hansson
Cleaning up and simplifying the ports and going towards a more strict elaboration-time creation and binding of the ports.
2012-01-17MEM: Remove the notion of the default portAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the default port and instead relies on the peer being set to NULL initially. The binding check (i.e. is a port connected or not) will eventually be moved to the init function of the modules.
2012-01-17MEM: Simplify ports by removing EventManagerAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the inheritance of EventManager from the ports and moves all responsibility for event queues to the owner. Eventually the event manager should be the interface block, which could either be the structural owner or a subblock like a LSQ in the O3 CPU for example.
2012-01-17MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural portsAndreas Hansson
Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data port in a port proxy. The following replacements are made: FunctionalPort > PortProxy TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy --HG-- rename : src/mem/vport.cc => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/vport.hh => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.hh rename : src/mem/translating_port.cc => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/translating_port.hh => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.hh
2012-01-17Ruby: Change the access permissions for MOESI hammerAndreas Hansson
This patch changes the access permission for the WB_E_W state from Busy to Read_Write to avoid having issues in follow-on patches with functional accesses going through Ruby. This change was made after consultation with all involved parties and is more of a work-around than a fix.
2012-01-17MEM: Differentiate functional cache accesses from CPU and memoryAndreas Hansson
This patch changes the functionalAccess member function in the cache model such that it is aware of what port the access came from, i.e. if it came from the CPU side or from the memory side. By adding this information, it is possible to respect the 'forwardSnoops' flag for snooping requests coming from the memory side and not forward them. This fixes an outstanding issue with the IO bus getting accesses that have no valid destination port and also cleans up future changes to the bus model.
2012-01-12PerfectCacheMemory: Remove references to CacheMsgNilay Vaish
The definition for the class CacheMsg was removed long back. Some declaration had still survived, which was recently removed. Since the PerfectCacheMemory class relied on this particular declaration, its absence let to compilation breaking down. Hence this patch.

2012-01-10Ruby: remove the files related to the tracerNilay Vaish
The Ruby Tracer is out of date with the changes that are being carried out to support checkpointing. Hence, it needs to be removed.
2012-01-10MOESI Hammer: Remove a couple of bugsNilay Vaish
A couple of bugs were observed while building checkpointing support in Ruby. This patch changes transitions to remove those errors.
2012-01-10Sparse Memory: Simplify the structure for an entryNilay Vaish
The SparseMemEntry structure includes just one void* pointer. It seems unnecessary that we have a structure for this. The patch removes the structure and makes use of a typedef on void* instead.
2012-01-09Packet: Add derived class FunctionalPacket to enable partial functional readsGeoffrey Blake
This adds the derived class FunctionalPacket to fix a long standing deficiency in the Packet class where it was unable to handle finding data to partially satisfy a functional access. Made this a derived class as functional accesses are used only in certain contexts and to not add any additional overhead to the existing Packet class.
