2012-03-30MEM: Introduce the master/slave port sub-classes in C++William Wang
This patch introduces the notion of a master and slave port in the C++ code, thus bringing the previous classification from the Python classes into the corresponding simulation objects and memory objects. The patch enables us to classify behaviours into the two bins and add assumptions and enfore compliance, also simplifying the two interfaces. As a starting point, isSnooping is confined to a master port, and getAddrRanges to slave ports. More of these specilisations are to come in later patches. The getPort function is not getMasterPort and getSlavePort, and returns a port reference rather than a pointer as NULL would never be a valid return value. The default implementation of these two functions is placed in MemObject, and calls fatal. The one drawback with this specific patch is that it requires some code duplication, e.g. QueuedPort becomes QueuedMasterPort and QueuedSlavePort, and BusPort becomes BusMasterPort and BusSlavePort (avoiding multiple inheritance). With the later introduction of the port interfaces, moving the functionality outside the port itself, a lot of the duplicated code will disappear again.
2011-02-11O3: Enhance data address translation by supporting hardware page table walkers.Giacomo Gabrielli
Some ISAs (like ARM) relies on hardware page table walkers. For those ISAs, when a TLB miss occurs, initiateTranslation() can return with NoFault but with the translation unfinished. Instructions experiencing a delayed translation due to a hardware page table walk are deferred until the translation completes and kept into the IQ. In order to keep track of them, the IQ has been augmented with a queue of the outstanding delayed memory instructions. When their translation completes, instructions are re-executed (only their initiateAccess() was already executed; their DTB translation is now skipped). The IEW stage has been modified to support such a 2-pass execution.

2010-09-13Faults: Pass the StaticInst involved, if any, to a Fault's invoke method.Gabe Black
Also move the "Fault" reference counted pointer type into a separate file, sim/fault.hh. It would be better to name this less similarly to sim/faults.hh to reduce confusion, but fault.hh matches the name of the type. We could change Fault to FaultPtr to match other pointer types, and then changing the name of the file would make more sense.

2007-08-30params: Deprecate old-style constructors; update most SimObject constructors.Miles Kaufmann
SimObjects not yet updated: - Process and subclasses - BaseCPU and subclasses The SimObject(const std::string &name) constructor was removed. Subclasses that still rely on that behavior must call the parent initializer as : SimObject(makeParams(name)) --HG-- extra : convert_revision : d6faddde76e7c3361ebdbd0a7b372a40941c12ed
