2012-02-24MEM: Make port proxies use references rather than pointersAndreas Hansson
This patch is adding a clearer design intent to all objects that would not be complete without a port proxy by making the proxies members rathen than dynamically allocated. In essence, if NULL would not be a valid value for the proxy, then we avoid using a pointer to make this clear. The same approach is used for the methods using these proxies, such as loadSections, that now use references rather than pointers to better reflect the fact that NULL would not be an acceptable value (in fact the code would break and that is how this patch started out). Overall the concept of "using a reference to express unconditional composition where a NULL pointer is never valid" could be done on a much broader scale throughout the code base, but for now it is only done in the locations affected by the proxies.

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.

2012-01-17MEM: 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

2011-10-22SE: move page allocation from PageTable to ProcessSteve Reinhardt
PageTable supported an allocate() call that called back through the Process to allocate memory, but did not have a method to map addresses without allocating new pages. It makes more sense for Process to do the allocation, so this method was renamed allocateMem() and moved to Process, and uses a new map() call on PageTable. The remaining uses of the process pointer in PageTable were only to get the name and the PID, so by passing these in directly in the constructor, we can make PageTable completely independent of Process.
2011-09-09Stack: Tidy up some comments, a warning, and make stack extension consistent.Gabe Black
Do some minor cleanup of some recently added comments, a warning, and change other instances of stack extension to be like what's now being done for x86.
2011-09-02TLB: comments and a helpful warning.Lisa Hsu
Nothing big here, but when you have an address that is not in the page table request to be allocated, if it falls outside of the maximum stack range all you get is a page fault and you don't know why. Add a little warn() to explain it a bit. Also add some comments and alter logic a little so that you don't totally ignore the return value of checkAndAllocNextPage().
2011-05-23syscall emul: fix Power Linux mmap constant, plus other cleanupSteve Reinhardt
We were getting a spurious warning in the regressions that turned out to be due to having the wrong value for TGT_MAP_ANONYMOUS for Power Linux, but in the process of tracking it down I ended up doing some cleanup of the mmap handling in general.

2010-08-17sim: revamp unserialization procedureSteve Reinhardt
Replace direct call to unserialize() on each SimObject with a pair of calls for better control over initialization in both ckpt and non-ckpt cases. If restoring from a checkpoint, loadState(ckpt) is called on each SimObject. The default implementation simply calls unserialize() if there is a corresponding checkpoint section, so we get backward compatibility for existing objects. However, objects can override loadState() to get other behaviors, e.g., doing other programmed initializations after unserialize(), or complaining if no checkpoint section is found. (Note that the default warning for a missing checkpoint section is now gone.) If not restoring from a checkpoint, we call the new initState() method on each SimObject instead. This provides a hook for state initializations that are only required when *not* restoring from a checkpoint. Given this new framework, do some cleanup of LiveProcess subclasses and X86System, which were (in some cases) emulating initState() behavior in startup via a local flag or (in other cases) erroneously doing initializations in startup() that clobbered state loaded earlier by unserialize().

2010-01-19util: do checkpoint aggregation more cleanly, fix last changeset.Lisa Hsu
1) Move alpha-specific code out of page_table.cc:serialize(). 2) Begin serializing M5_pid and unserializing it, but adding an function to do optional paramIn so that old checkpoints don't need to be fixed up. 3) Fix up alpha startup code so that the unserialized M5_pid value is properly written to DTB_IPR_ASN. 4) Fix the memory unserialize that I forgot somehow in the last changeset. 5) Add in an agg_se.py to handle aggregated checkpoints. --bench foo-bar plus positional arguments foo bar are the only changes in usage from se.py. Note this aggregation stuff has only been tested for Alpha and nothing else, though it should take a very minimal amount of work to get it to work with another ISA.

2009-10-30Syscalls: Make system calls access arguments like a stack, not an array.Gabe Black
When accessing arguments for a syscall, the position of an argument depends on the policies of the ISA, how much space preceding arguments took up, and the "alignment" of the index for this particular argument into the number of possible storate locations. This change adjusts getSyscallArg to take its index parameter by reference instead of value and to adjust it to point to the possible location of the next argument on the stack, basically just after the current one. This way, the rules for the new argument can be applied locally without knowing about other arguments since those have already been taken into account implicitly. All system calls have also been changed to reflect the new interface. In a number of cases this made the implementation clearer since it encourages arguments to be collected in one place in order and then used as necessary later, as opposed to scattering them throughout the function or using them in place in long expressions. It also discourages using getSyscallArg over and over to retrieve the same value when a temporary would do the job.

2009-04-15Get rid of the Unallocated thread context state.Steve Reinhardt
Basically merge it in with Halted. Also had to get rid of a few other functions that called ThreadContext::deallocate(), including: - InOrderCPU's setThreadRescheduleCondition. - ThreadContext::exit(). This function was there to avoid terminating simulation when one thread out of a multi-thread workload exits, but we need to find a better (non-cpu-centric) way.

2008-07-23process: separate stderr from stdoutMichael Adler
- Add the option of redirecting stderr to a file. With the old behaviour, stderr would follow stdout if stdout was to a file, but stderr went to the host stderr if stdout went to the host stdout. The new default maintains stdout and stderr going to the host. Now the two can specify different files, but they will share a file descriptor if the name of the files is the same. - Add --output and --errout options to se.py to go with --input.
