The eventual aim of this change is to pass RubySystem pointers through to
objects generated from the SLICC protocol code.
Because some of these objects need to dereference their RubySystem pointers,
they need access to the System.hh header file.
In src/mem/ruby/SConscript, the MakeInclude function creates single-line header
files in the build directory that do nothing except include the corresponding
header file from the source tree.
However, SLICC also generates a list of header files from its symbol table, and
writes it to mem/protocol/Types.hh in the build directory. This code assumes
that the header file name is the same as the class name.
The end result of this is the many of the generated slicc files try to include
RubySystem.hh, when the file they really need is System.hh. The path of least
resistence is just to rename System.hh to RubySystem.hh.

This was added by changeset 51f40b101a56. Instead, buffer_expr would now be
associated with the InPort class.
|
|
Refactored the code in operateVnet(), moved partly to a new function
operateMessageBuffer(). This is required since a later patch moves to having a
wakeup event per MessageBuffer instead of one event for the entire Switch.
|
|
There are two reasons for doing so:
a. provide a source of clock to PerfectSwitch. A follow on patch removes sender
and receiver pointers from MessageBuffer means that the object owning the
buffer should have some way of providing timing info.
b. schedule events. A follow on patch removes the consumer class. So the
PerfectSwitch needs some EventManager object to schedule events on its own.

Currently the sequencer calls the function setMRU that updates the replacement
policy structures with the first level caches. While functionally this is
correct, the problem is that this requires calling findTagInSet() which is an
expensive function. This patch removes the calls to setMRU from the sequencer.
All controllers should now update the replacement policy on their own.
The set and the way index for a given cache entry can be found within the
AbstractCacheEntry structure. Use these indicies to update the replacement
policy structures.

The current Set data structure is slow and therefore is being reimplemented
using std::bitset. A maximum limit of 64 is being set on the number of
controllers of each type. This means that for simulating a system with more
controllers of a given type, one would need to change the value of the variable
NUMBER_BITS_PER_SET

MessageBuffer is a SimObject now. There were protocols that still declared
some of the message buffers are variables of the controller, but not as input
parameters. Special handling was required for these variables in the SLICC
compiler. This patch changes this. Now all message buffers are declared as
input parameters.

|
In cases where a newly added target does not have any upstream MSHR to
mark as downstreamPending, remember that nothing is marked. This
allows us to avoid attempting to find the MSHR as part of the clearing
of downstreamPending.

Minor tweaks and house keeping.
|
|
Remove broken and unused option to pass dirty data on non-exclusive
snoops. Also beef up the comments a bit.
|
|
We no longer use the C library based random number generator: random().
Instead we use the C++ library provided rng. So setting the random seed for
the RubySystem class has no effect. Hence the variable and the corresponding
option are being dropped.

The default value for number of virtual networks is being removed. Each protocol
should now specify the value it needs.
|
|
This member indicates whether or not a particular virtual network is in use.
Instead of having a default big value for the number of virtual networks and
then checking whether a virtual network is in use, the next patch removes the
default value and the protocol configuration file would now specify the
number of virtual networks it requires.
Additionally, the patch also refactors some of the code used for computing the
virtual channel next in the round robin order.

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.
|
|
These types are being replaced with uint64_t and int64_t.

The new serialization code (kudos to Tim Jones) moves all of the state
mangling in RubySystem to memWriteback. This makes it possible to use
the new const serialization interface.
This changeset moves the cache recorder cleanup from the checkpoint()
method to drainResume() to make checkpointing truly constant and
updates the checkpointing code to use the new interface.
|
|
The sequencer takes care of llsc accesses by calling upon functions
from the CacheMemory. This is unnecessary once the required CacheEntry object
is available. Thus some of the calls to findTagInSet() are avoided.
|
|
This patch reverts part of (842f56345a42), as apparently there are
use-cases outside the main repository relying on the late setting of
the physical address.
|
|
This patch simplifies the packet, and removes the possibility of
creating a packet without a valid address and/or size. Under no
circumstances are these fields set at a later point, and thus they
really have to be provided at construction time.
The patch also fixes a case there the MinorCPU creates a packet
without a valid address and size, only to later delete it.
|
|
Cleaning up dead code. The CLREX stores zero directly to
MISCREG_LOCKFLAG and so the request flag is no longer needed. The
corresponding functionality in the cache tags is also removed.
|
|
Tidying up.
|
|
Open up for other subclasses to BaseCache and transition to using the
explicit Cache subclass.
--HG--
rename : src/mem/cache/BaseCache.py => src/mem/cache/Cache.py

This patch serves to avoid name clashes with the classic cache. For
some reason having two 'SimObject' files with the same name creates
problems.

rename : src/mem/ruby/structures/Cache.py => src/mem/ruby/structures/RubyCache.py

There is no longer any need to keep the implementation in a header.
|
|
A more natural home for this constant.

Drops an unused variable and marks three variables as const.
|
|
The aim is to ultimately do away with the static function
Network::getNumberOfVirtualNetworks().
