2017-05-25x86: sim: Make 32 bit x86 processes work again.Gabe Black
When the LiveProcess class was renamed to be just Process, the CL author also changed the syscall function from a virtual function into a regular one. Unfortunately, the I386Process class overrode the syscall function to adjust the return address so that control would return to the right place. Without that adjustment, 32 bit x86 process would segfault and die immediately after their first system call. This change reinstates the virtual specifier on the base syscall function, and adds an override keyword on the I386Process's version so that it won't be orphaned again in the future. It also fixes some small style issues the style checker script complained about.

2017-05-24sim: Add hooks to implement event reference countingAndreas Sandberg
We currently only support deleting an event if it is triggered and not re-scheduled. This is fine for most native code. However, there are cases where Python needs to count references to make sure that the Python object stays live while the native object is live. Generalise the mechanism used to implement by adding reference counting hooks to the event base class: * Event::acquire() / Event::acquireImpl() * Event::release() / Event::releaseImpl() These calls can be used to implement both reference counting and the existing AutoDelete functionality. The default implementation in Event maintains backwards compatibility with the existing AutoDelete feature by ignoring acquireImpl() and deleting the event on releaseImpl() if it isn't scheduled anymore. Since AutoDelete functionality is no longer the only way events can be managed, this change introduces the new Managed flag. This flag activates automatic memory management. The acquireImpl()/releaseImpl() methods are only called from acquire()/release() it is set. To maintain backwards compatibility, AutoDelete is used as an alias for Managed.

2017-05-02python: Use PyBind11 instead of SWIG for Python wrappersAndreas Sandberg
Use the PyBind11 wrapping infrastructure instead of SWIG to generate wrappers for functionality that needs to be exported to Python. This has several benefits: * PyBind11 can be redistributed with gem5, which means that we have full control of the version used. This avoid a large number of hard-to-debug SWIG issues we have seen in the past. * PyBind11 doesn't rely on a custom C++ parser, instead it relies on wrappers being explicitly declared in C++. The leads to slightly more boiler-plate code in manually created wrappers, but doesn't doesn't increase the overall code size. A big benefit is that this avoids strange compilation errors when SWIG doesn't understand modern language features. * Unlike SWIG, there is no risk that the wrapper code incorporates incorrect type casts (this has happened on numerous occasions in the past) since these will result in compile-time errors. As a part of this change, the mechanism to define exported methods has been redesigned slightly. New methods can be exported either by declaring them in the SimObject declaration and decorating them with the cxxMethod decorator or by adding an instance of PyBindMethod/PyBindProperty to the cxx_exports class variable. The decorator has the added benefit of making it possible to add a docstring and naming the method's parameters. The new wrappers have the following known issues: * Global events can't be memory managed correctly. This was the case in SWIG as well.

2017-04-03sim: Handle cases where Drainable::resume() creates objectsAndreas Sandberg
There are cases where Drainable objects need to create new objects in Drainable::resume(). In such cases, the local drain state will be inherited from the DrainManager. We currently set the state to Running as soon as we start resuming the simulator. This means that new objects are created in the Running state rather than the Drained state, which the resume code assumes. Depending on the traversal order in DrainManager::resume(), this sometimes triggers a panic because the object being resumed is in the wrong state. This change introduces a new drain state, Resuming, that the DrainManager enters as soon as it starts resuming the simulator. Objects that are created while resuming are created in this state. Such objects are then resumed in a subsequent pass over the list of Drainable objects that need to be resumed. Once all objects have been resumed, the simulator enters the Running state.

2015-07-20syscall_emul: [patch 13/22] add system call retry capabilityBrandon Potter
This changeset adds functionality that allows system calls to retry without affecting thread context state such as the program counter or register values for the associated thread context (when system calls return with a retry fault). This functionality is needed to solve problems with blocking system calls in multi-process or multi-threaded simulations where information is passed between processes/threads. Blocking system calls can cause deadlock because the simulator itself is single threaded. There is only a single thread servicing the event queue which can cause deadlock if the thread hits a blocking system call instruction. To illustrate the problem, consider two processes using the producer/consumer sharing model. The processes can use file descriptors and the read and write calls to pass information to one another. If the consumer calls the blocking read system call before the producer has produced anything, the call will block the event queue (while executing the system call instruction) and deadlock the simulation. The solution implemented in this changeset is to recognize that the system calls will block and then generate a special retry fault. The fault will be sent back up through the function call chain until it is exposed to the cpu model's pipeline where the fault becomes visible. The fault will trigger the cpu model to replay the instruction at a future tick where the call has a chance to succeed without actually going into a blocking state. In subsequent patches, we recognize that a syscall will block by calling a non-blocking poll (from inside the system call implementation) and checking for events. When events show up during the poll, it signifies that the call would not have blocked and the syscall is allowed to proceed (calling an underlying host system call if necessary). If no events are returned from the poll, we generate the fault and try the instruction for the thread context at a distant tick. Note that retrying every tick is not efficient. As an aside, the simulator has some multi-threading support for the event queue, but it is not used by default and needs work. Even if the event queue was completely multi-threaded, meaning that there is a hardware thread on the host servicing a single simulator thread contexts with a 1:1 mapping between them, it's still possible to run into deadlock due to the event queue barriers on quantum boundaries. The solution of replaying at a later tick is the simplest solution and solves the problem generally.

2016-11-09syscall_emul: [patch 10/22] refactor fdentry and add fdarray classBrandon Potter
Several large changes happen in this patch. The FDEntry class is rewritten so that file descriptors now correspond to types: 'File' which is normal file-backed file with the file open on the host machine, 'Pipe' which is a pipe that has been opened on the host machine, and 'Device' which does not have an open file on the host yet acts as a pseudo device with which to issue ioctls. Other types which might be added in the future are directory entries and sockets (off the top of my head). The FDArray class was create to hold most of the file descriptor handling that was stuffed into the Process class. It uses shared pointers and the std::array type to hold the FDEntries mentioned above. The changes to these two classes needed to be propagated out to the rest of the code so there were quite a few changes for that. Also, comments were added where I thought they were needed to help others and extend our DOxygen coverage.

2016-11-09syscall_emul: [patch 8/22] refactor process classBrandon Potter
Moves aux_vector into its own .hh and .cc files just to get it out of the already crowded Process files. Arguably, it could stay there, but it's probably better just to move it and give it files. The changeset looks ugly around the Process header file, but the goal here is to move methods and members around so that they're not defined randomly throughout the entire header file. I expect this is likely one of the reasons why I several unused variables related to this class. So, the methods are declared first followed by members. I've tried to aggregate them together so that similar entries reside near one another. There are other changes coming to this code so this is by no means the final product.
2016-11-09syscall_emul: [patch 7/22] remove numCpus methodBrandon Potter
The numCpus method is misleading in that it's not really a measure of how many CPUs might be executing a process, but how many thread contexts are assigned to the process at any given point in time. It's nice to highlight this distinction because thread contexts are never reused in the same way that a CPU can be reused for multiple processes. The reason that there is no reuse is that there is no CPU scheduler for SE. The tru64 code intends to use this method and the accompanying contextIDs field to support SMT and track the number of threads with some system calls. With the up coming clone and exec patches, this paradigm must change. There needs to be a 1:1 mapping between the thread contexts and processes so that the process state between threads is allowed to vary when needed by Linux. This should not break SMT for tru64 if the Process class is refactored so that multiple Processes can share state between themselves. The following patches will do the refactoring incrementally as features are added.

2017-02-09misc: Fix order of object construction in the CxxConfigManagerChristian Menard
The CxxConfigManager schould create objects by traversing the object tree starting from the root object. However, currently objects are created in aplphabetical order, which only works if the root object alphabetically comes before any system object (e.g. 'root' < 'system'. Otherwise (e.g. 'a_system' < 'root'), object construction may fail. The reason for this behaviour is, that the call to findObject() in the sorting code also constructs the object if it is not yet existent. Then findTraversalOrder() calls findObject("root") and subseqeuently calls findObject() on all the children, and so on. However, the call to findTraversalOrder() is redundant, since all objects are already created in alphabetical order. This patch simply removes the alphabetical ordering, leading to the objects being created starting from 'root'.

2017-02-07style: Force Python.h to be included before main headerAndreas Sandberg
Python's header files set various compiler macros (e.g., _XOPEN_SOURCE) unconditionally. This triggers preprocessor warnings that end up being treated as errors. The Python integration manual [1] strongly recommends that Python.h is included before any system header. The style guide used to mandate that Python.h is included first in any file that needs it. This requirement was changed to always include a source file's main header first, which ended up triggering these errors. This change updates the style checker to always include Python.h before the main header file.

2016-11-09style: [patch 3/22] reduce include dependencies in some headersBrandon Potter
Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward declarations could have been used rather than a full include.
