This patch adds support for interleaving bits for the address
ranges. What was previously just a start and end address, now has an
additional three fields, for the high bit, and number of bits to use
for interleaving, and a match value to compare against. If the number
of interleaving bits is set to zero it is effectively disabled.
A number of convenience functions are added to the range to enquire
about the interleaving, its granularity and the number of stripes it
is part of.
|
|
This patch takes the final plunge and transitions from the templated
Range class to the more specific AddrRange. In doing so it changes the
obvious Range<Addr> to AddrRange, and also bumps the range_map to be
AddrRangeMap.
In addition to the obvious changes, including the removal of redundant
includes, this patch also does some house keeping in preparing for the
introduction of address interleaving support in the ranges. The Range
class is also stripped of all the functionality that is never used.

This patch simplifies the Range object hierarchy in preparation for an
address range class that also allows striping (e.g. selecting a few
bits as matching in addition to the range).
To extend the AddrRange class to an AddrRegion, the first step is to
simplify the hierarchy such that we can make it as lean as possible
before adding the new functionality. The only class using Range and
MetaRange is AddrRange, and the three classes are now collapsed into
one.

This patch is a first step to using Cycles as a parameter type. The
main affected modules are the CPUs and the Ruby caches. There are
definitely plenty more places that are affected, but this patch serves
as a starting point to making the transition.
An important part of this patch is to actually enable parameters to be
specified as Param.Cycles which involves some changes to params.py.
|

This patch addresses the comments and feedback on the preceding patch
that reworks the clocks and now more clearly shows where cycles
(relative cycle counts) are used to express time.
Instead of bumping the existing patch I chose to make this a separate
patch, merely to try and focus the discussion around a smaller set of
changes. The two patches will be pushed together though.
This changes done as part of this patch are mostly following directly
from the introduction of the wrapper class, and change enough code to
make things compile and run again. There are definitely more places
where int/uint/Tick is still used to represent cycles, and it will
take some time to chase them all down. Similarly, a lot of parameters
should be changed from Param.Tick and Param.Unsigned to
Param.Cycles.
In addition, the use of curTick is questionable as there should not be
an absolute cycle. Potential solutions can be built on top of this
patch. There is a similar situation in the o3 CPU where
lastRunningCycle is currently counting in Cycles, and is still an
absolute time. More discussion to be had in other words.
An additional change that would be appropriate in the future is to
perform a similar wrapping of Tick and probably also introduce a
Ticks class along with suitable operators for all these classes.

This patch changes the organisation of the JSON output slightly to
make it easier to traverse and use the files. Most importantly, the
hierarchical dictionaries now use keys that correspond to the
attribute names also in the case of VectorParams (used to be
e.f. "cpu0 cpu1"). It also adds the name and the path to each
SimObject directory entry. Before this patch, to get cpu0, you would
have to query dict['system']['cpu0 cpu1'][0] and this could be a dict
with 'cpu0' : { cpu parameters }. Now you use dict['system']['cpu'][0]
and get { cpu parameters } (where one is "name" : "cpu0").
Additionally this patch includes more verbose information about the
ports, specifying their role, and using a JSON array rather than a
concatenated string for the peer.

This patch turns the existing warning into a fatal, as there should
never be any cases where a (non-vector) port is assigned to and then
later connected to something else. If this behaviour is allowed, as it
used to be, there are cases where the wrong number of C++ ports are
created when instantiating objects with VectorPorts (obviously that
could be fixed, but the better approach is to simply not allow it).

This patch cleans up a number of minor issues aiming to get closer to
compliance with the C++0x standard as interpreted by gcc and clang
(compile with std=c++0x and -pedantic-errors). In particular, the
patch cleans up enums where the last item was succeded by a comma,
namespaces closed by a curcly brace followed by a semi-colon, and the
use of the GNU-extension typeof (replaced by templated functions). It
does not address variable-length arrays, zero-size arrays, anonymous
structs, range expressions in switch statements, and the use of long
long. The generated CPU code also has a large number of issues that
remain to be fixed, mainly related to overflows in implicit constant
conversion (due to shifts).

This patch adds basic information about the ports in the parameter
classes to be passed from the Python world to the corresponding C++
object. Currently, the only information passed is the number of
connected peers, which for a Port is either 0 or 1, and for a
VectorPort reflects the size of the VectorPort. The default port of
the bus had to be renamed to avoid using the name "default" as a field
in the parameter class. It is possible to extend the Swig'ed
information further and add e.g. a pair with a description and size.

This patch classifies all ports in Python as either Master or Slave
and enforces a binding of master to slave. Conceptually, a master (such
as a CPU or DMA port) issues requests, and receives responses, and
conversely, a slave (such as a memory or a PIO device) receives
requests and sends back responses. Currently there is no
differentiation between coherent and non-coherent masters and slaves.
The classification as master/slave also involves splitting the dual
role port of the bus into a master and slave port and updating all the
system assembly scripts to use the appropriate port. Similarly, the
interrupt devices have to have their int_port split into a master and
slave port. The intdev and its children have minimal changes to
facilitate the extra port.
Note that this patch does not enforce any port typing in the C++
world, it merely ensures that the Python objects have a notion of the
port roles and are connected in an appropriate manner. This check is
carried when two ports are connected, e.g. bus.master =
memory.port. The following patches will make use of the
classifications and specialise the C++ ports into masters and slaves.
|
|
In preparation for the introduction of Master and Slave ports, this
patch removes the default port parameter in the Python port and thus
forces the argument list of the Port to contain only the
description. The drawback at this point is that the config port and
dma port of PCI and DMA devices have to be connected explicitly. This
is key for future diversification as the pio and config port are
slaves, but the dma port is a master.

To make gem5 compile and run with swig 2.0.4 a few minor fixes are
necessary, the fail label issues by swig must not be treated as an
error by gcc (tested with gcc 4.2.1), and the vector wrappers must
have SWIGPY_SLICE_ARG defined which happens in pycontainer.swg,
included through std_container.i. By adding the aforementioned include
to the vector wrappers everything seems to work.

And by "everything" I mean all the quick regressions.

Replace the (broken as of previous changeset) swig_objdecl() method
that allowed/forced you to substitute a whole new C++ struct
definition for SWIG to wrap with a set of export_method* hooks
that let you just declare a set of C++ methods (or other declarations)
that get inserted in the auto-generated struct.
Restore the System get/setMemoryMode methods, and use this mechanism
to specialize SimObject as well, eliminating teh need for sim_object.i.
Needed bits of sim_object.i are moved to the new pyobject.i.
Also sucked a little SimObject specialization into cxx_param_decl()
allowing us to get rid of src/sim/sim_object_params.hh. Now the
generation and wrapping of the base SimObject param struct is more
in line with how derived objects are handled.

- Move the random bits of SWIG code generation out of src/SConscript
file and into methods on the objects being wrapped.
- Cleaned up some variable naming and added some comments to make
the process a little clearer.
- Did a little generated file/module renaming:
- vptype_Foo now Foo_vector
- init_Foo is now Foo_init
This makes it easier to see all the Foo-related files in a
sorted directory listing.
- Made cxx_predecls and swig_predecls normal SimObject classmethods.
- Got rid of swig_objdecls hook, even though this breaks the System
objects get/setMemoryMode method exports. Will be fixing this in
a future changeset.

Print IpAddress params in dot notation for readability.
Properly compare IpAddress objects (by value and not object identity).
Also fix up derived param classes (IpNetmask and IpWithPort)
similarly.

Last summer's big rewrite of the initialization code (in
particular cset 6efc3672733b) got rid of the implicit parenting
that used to occur when an unparented SimObject was assigned as
a parameter value to another SimObject. The idea was that the
new adoptOrphanParams() step would catch these anyway so it was
unnecessary.
Unfortunately it turns out that adoptOrphanParams() has some
inherent instability in that the parent that does the adoption
depends on the config tree traversal order. Even making this
order deterministic (e.g., by traversing children in
alphabetical order) can introduce unwanted and unexpected
hierarchy changes between similar configs (e.g., when adding a
switch_cpu in place of a cpu), causing problems when trying to
restore checkpoints across similar configs. The hierarchy
created by implicit parenting is more stable and more
controllable, so this patch turns that behavior back on.
This patch also cleans up some long-standing holes regarding
parenting of SimObjects that are created in class definitions
(either in the body of the class, or as default parameters).
To avoid breaking some existing config files, this necessitated
changing the error on reparenting children to a warning. This
change fixes another bug where attempting to print the prior
error message would fail on reparenting SimObjectVectors
because they lack a _parent attribute. Some further issues
with SimObjectVectors were cleaned up by getting rid of the
get_parent() call (which could cause errors with some
SimObjectVectors where there was no single parent to return)
with has_parent() (since all the uses of get_parent() were just
boolean tests anyway).
Finally, since the adoptOrphanParam() step turned out to be so
problematic, we now issue a warning when it actually has to do
an adoption. Future cleanup of config files will get rid of
current warnings.

Ran all the source files through 'perl -pi' with this script:
s|\s*(};?\s*)?/\*\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*\*/(\s*})?|} // namespace $3|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*|} // namespace $2\n|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(\S+)\s*namespace\s*|} // namespace $1\n|;
Also did a little manual editing on some of the arch/*/isa_traits.hh files
and src/SConscript.

New parameter forms are:
IP address in the format "a.b.c.d" where a-d are from decimal 0 to 255.
IP address with netmask which is an IP followed by "/n" where n is a netmask
length in bits from decimal 0 to 32 or by "/e.f.g.h" where e-h are from
decimal 0 to 255 and which is all 1 bits followed by all 0 bits when
represented in binary. These can also be specified as an integral IP and
netmask passed in separately.
IP address with port which is an IP followed by ":p" where p is a port index
from decimal 0 to 65535. These can also be specified as an integral IP and
port value passed in separately.

This is necessary because versions of swig older than 1.3.39 fail to
do the right thing and try to do relative imports for everything (even
with the package= option to %module). Instead of putting params in
the m5.internal.params package, put params in the m5.internal package
and make all param modules start with param_. Same thing for
m5.internal.enums.
Also, stop importing all generated params into m5.objects. They are
not necessary and now with everything using relative imports we wound
up with pollution of the namespace (where builtin-range got overridden).

The old code for handling SimObject children was kind of messy,
with children stored both in _values and _children, and
inconsistent and potentially buggy handling of SimObject
vectors. Now children are always stored in _children, and
SimObject vectors are consistently handled using the
SimObjectVector class.
Also, by deferring the parenting of SimObject-valued parameters
until the end (instead of doing it at assignment), we eliminate
the hole where one could assign a vector of SimObjects to a
parameter then append to that vector, with the appended objects
never getting parented properly.
This patch induces small stats changes in tests with data races
due to changes in the object creation & initialization order.
The new code does object vectors in order and so should be more
stable.

Orphan SimObjects (not in the config hierarchy) could get
created implicitly if they have a port connection to a SimObject
that is in the hierarchy. This means that there are objects on
the C++ SimObject list (created via the C++ SimObject
constructor call) that are unknown to Python and will get
skipped if we walk the hierarchy from the Python side (as we are
about to do). This patch detects this situation and prints an
error message.
Also fix the rubytester config script which happened to rely on
this behavior.
