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.

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.

The changeset does a major refactor on the exit, exit_group, and
futex system calls regarding exit functionality.
A FutexMap class and related structures are added into a new
file. This increases code clarity by encapsulating the futex
operations and the futex state into an object.
Several exit conditions were added to allow the simulator to end
processes under certain conditions. Also, the simulation only
exits now when all processes have finished executing.

simulations
Modifies the clone system call and adds execve system call. Requires allowing
processes to steal thread contexts from other processes in the same system
object and the ability to detach pieces of process state (such as MemState)
to allow dynamic sharing.
|
|
This changeset add fields to the process object and adds the following
three system calls: setpgid, gettid, getpid.
|
|
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.

This changeset add spaces in a few spots and removes an unnecessary comment.
|
|
This changeset adds the ability to set a close-on-exec flag for a given
file descriptor. It also reworks some of the logic surrounding setting and
retrieving flags from the file description.
|
|
The traversal of drainable objects could potentially be
non-deterministic when using an unordered set containing object
pointers. To ensure that the iteration is deterministic, we switch to
a vector. Note that the lookup and traversal of the drainable objects
is not performance critical, so the change has no negative consequences.
|
|
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.

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.

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.
|
|
It looks like tru64 has some nxm* system calls, but the two fields that
are defined in the Process class are unused by any of the code. There doesn't
appear to be any reference in the tru64 code.
|
|
The EIOProcess class was removed recently and it was the only other class
which derived from Process. Since every Process invocation is also a
LiveProcess invocation, it makes sense to simplify the organization by
combining the fields from LiveProcess into Process.

A KVM VM is typically a child of the System object already, but for

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'.

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.
