Add the ability to build libgem5 without embedded Python or the
ability to configure with Python.
This is a prelude to a patch to allow config.ini files to be loaded
into libgem5 using only C++ which would make embedding gem5 within
other simulation systems easier.
This adds a few registration interfaces to things which cross
between Python and C++. Namely: stats dumping and SimObject resolving
|
|
Tick was not correctly wrapped for the stats system, and therefore it was not
possible to configure the stats dumping from the python scripts without
defining Ticks as long long. This patch fixes the wrapping of Tick by copying
the typemap of uint64_t to Tick.
|
|
This patch adds a function, periodicStatDump(long long period), which will dump
and reset the statistics every period. This function is designed to be called
from the python configuration scripts. This allows the periodic stats dumping to
be configured more easilly at run time.
The period is currently specified as a long long as there are issues passing
Tick into the C++ from the python as they have conflicting definitions. If the
period is less than curTick, the first occurance occurs at curTick. If the
period is set to 0, then the event is descheduled and the stats are not
periodically dumped.
Due to issues when resumung from a checkpoint, the StatDump event must be moved
forward such that it occues AFTER the current tick. As the function is called
from the python, the event is scheduled before the system resumes from the
checkpoint. Therefore, the event is moved using the updateEvents() function.
This is called from simulate.py once the system has resumed from the checkpoint.
NOTE: It should be noted that this is a fairly temporary patch which re-adds the
capability to extract temporal information from the communication monitors. It
should not be used at the same time as anything that relies on dumping the
statistics based on in simulation events i.e. a context switch.

This mechanism is useful for dumping output that is correlated with stats
dumping, but isn't tracked by the gem5 statistics.
|
|
Track the point in the initialization where statistics have been registered.
After this point registering new masterIds can no longer work as some
SimObjects may have sized stats vectors based on the previous value. If someone
tries to register a masterId after this point the simulator executes fatal().

we can add it back within python in some future changeset

Build a python list and dict of all stats and expose flags properly.

rename : src/python/m5/stats.py => src/python/m5/stats/__init__.py

This step makes it easy to replace the accessor functions
(which still access a global variable) with ones that access
per-thread curTick values.
|
|
This follows the style rules and is more descriptive.

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.

It doesn't appear to be necessary and it is somewhat odd. I'm pretty
sure that the package parameter to %module does whatever this might
have been before. It's necessary in future revisions anyway.

Enable more or less takes the place of check, but also allows stats to
do some other configuration. Prepare moves all of the code that readies
a stat for dumping into a separate function in preparation for supporting
serialization of certain pieces of statistics data.
While we're at it, clean up the visitor code and some of the python code.

so things are organized in a more sensible manner. Take apart
finalInit and expose the individual functions which are now
called from python. Make checkpointing a bit easier to use.

expose all of the relevant functionality to python. Clean
up the mysql code while we're at it.
