This patch adds the row bits to the name of the address mapping
schemes to make it more clear that all the current schemes places the
row bits as the most significant bits.

Check the right flag.

This patch moves the Ruby-related debug flags to the ruby
sub-directory, and also removes the state SConsopts that add the
no-longer-used NO_VECTOR_BOUNDS_CHECK.

This patch makes sure DRAMSim2 is included in a build of the NULL ISA.

Add a warning to the CommMonitor which will alert the user if they try
and record a trace when the system is not in timing mode.
|

Prevent incomplete configuration of TrafficGen class from causing
segmentation faults. If an 'INIT' line is not present in the
configuration file then the currState variable will remain
uninitialized which may result in a crash.

There were several sections of the m5ops code which were
essentially copy/pasted versions of the 32-bit code. The
problem is that some of these didn't account fo4 64-bit
registers leading to arguments being in the wrong registers.
This patch addresses the args for readfile64, writefile64,
and addsymbol64 -- all of which seemed to suffer from a
similar set of problems when moving to 64-bit.

This patch fixes the unit used in all error messages.

Each consumer object maintains a set of tick values when the object is supposed
to wakeup and do some processing. As of now, the object accesses this set both
when scheduling a wakeup event and when the object actually wakes up. The set
is accessed during wakeup to remove the current tick value from the set. This
functionality is now being moved to the scheduling function where ticks are
removed at a later time.

|
This helps in configuring the network interfaces from the python script and
these objects no longer rely on the network object for the timing information.

Piobus was recently added to se scripts for ruby so that the interrupt
controller can be connected to something (required since the interrupt
controller sends address range messages). This patch removes the piobus
and instead, the pio port of ruby port will now ignore the range change
messages in se mode.

KVM used to use two signals, one for instruction count exits and one
for timer exits. There is really no need to distinguish between the
two since they only trigger exits from KVM. This changeset unifies and
renames the signals and adds a method, kick(), that can be used to
raise the control signal in the vCPU thread. It also removes the early
timer warning since we do not normally see if the signal was
delivered.

gem5 seems to store the PC as RIP+CS_BASE. This is not what KVM
expects, so we need to subtract CS_BASE prior to transferring the PC
into KVM. This changeset adds the necessary PC manipulation and
refactors thread context updates slightly to avoid reading registers
multiple times from KVM.

This changeset adds support for INIT and STARTUP IPI handling. We
currently handle both of these interrupts in gem5 and transfer the
state to KVM. Since we do not have a BIOS loaded, we pretend that the
INIT interrupt suspends the CPU after reset.

This patch merely tidies up the CPU and ThreadContext getters by
making them const where appropriate.

The table walker code currently accounts for two types of walks,
Atomic and Timing, and treats them differently. Atomic walks keep a
single instance of WalkerState around for all walks to use in
currState. Timing mode keeps a queue of in-flight WalkerStates and
maintains currState as NULL between walks.
If a functional walk is done during Timing mode, it is treated as an
atomic walk and either creates a persistent WalkerState if in between
Timing walks, or stomps an existing currState for an in-progress
Timing walk.
This patch distinguishes functional walks as being able to exist at
any time and sets up a temporary WalkerState for its exclusive use and
then cleans up when finished, leaving any in progress Atomic or Timing
walks undisturbed.

This patch fixes an assert condition that is not true at all
times. There are valid situations that arise in dual-core
dual-workload runs where the assert condition is false. The function
call following the assert however needs to be called only when the
condition is true (a block cannot be invalidated in the tags structure
if has not been allocated in the structure, and the tempBlock is never
allocated). Hence the 'assert' has been replaced with an 'if'.

This patch changes the decode script to output the optional fields of
the proto message Packet, namely id and flags. The flags field is set
by the communication monitor.
The id field is useful for CPU trace experiments, e.g. linking the
fetch side to decode side. It had to be renamed because it clashes
with a built in python function id() for getting the "identity" of an
object.
This patch also takes a few common function definitions out from the
multiple scripts and adds them to a protolib python module.

This snippet can be used to replace if + {panics, fatals, asserts} constructs.
The idea is to have both the condition checking and a verbose printout in a single statement. The interface is as follows:
panic_if(foo != bar, "These should be equal: foo %i bar %i", foo, bar);
fatal_if(foo != bar, "These should be equal: foo %i bar %i", foo, bar);
chatty_assert(foo == bar, "These should be equal: foo %i bar %i", foo, bar);

Small fixes to appease recent clang versions.

Small fix for a warning that prevents compilation with gcc 4.8.1 due
to detecting that a variable might be uninitialised. The fix is to
assign a safe default.

For systems without caches, the LLSC code does not get snoops for
wake-ups. We add the LLSC code in the abstract memory to do the job
for us.

The global synchronization event used to be scheduled at
simQuantum. This prevented repeated entries into gem5 from Python as
it can be scheduled in the past. This changeset ensures that the first
global synchronization happens at curTick() + simQuantum instead.

The TSL/LDT & TR/TSS segments didn't contain valid attributes. This
caused problems when transfering the state into KVM where invalid
state is a no-go. Fixup the attributes with values from AMD's
architecture programmer's manual.
|
|
When transferring segment registers into kvm, we need to find the
value of the unusable bit. We used to assume that this could be
inferred from the selector since segments are generally unusable if
their selector is 0. This assumption breaks in some weird corner
cases. Instead, we just assume that segments are always usable. This
is what qemu does so it should work.

Signal handlers in KVM are controlled per thread and should be
initialized from the thread that is going to execute the CPU. This
changeset moves the initialization call from startup() to
startupThread().

The last pop operation is now tracked as a Tick instead of in Cycles.
This helps in avoiding use of the receiver's clock during the enqueue
operation.

A copyRegs() function is added to MIPS utilities
to copy architectural state from the old CPU to
the new CPU during fast-forwarding. This
addition alone enables fast-forwarding for the
o3 cpu model running MIPS.
The patch also adds takeOverFrom() and
drainResume() functions to the InOrderCPU to
enable it to take over from another CPU. This
change enables fast-forwarding for the inorder
cpu model running MIPS, but not for Alpha.

Couple of users observed segmentation fault when the simulator tries to
register the statistical variable m_IncompleteTimes. It seems that there
is some problem with the initialization of these variables when allocated
in the constructor.

Currently, the interrupt controller in x86 is connected to the io bus
directly. Therefore the packets between the io devices and the interrupt
controller do not go through ruby. This patch changes ruby port so that
these packets arrive at the ruby port first, which then routes them to their
destination. Note that the patch does not make these packets go through the
ruby network. That would happen in a subsequent patch.

This patch simplfies the retry logic in the RubyPort, avoiding
redundant attributes, and enforcing more stringent checks on the
interactions with the normal ports. The patch also simplifies the
routing done by the RubyPort, using the port identifiers instead of a
heavy-weight sender state.
The patch also fixes a bug in the sending of responses from PIO
ports. Previously these responses bypassed the queue in the queued
port, and ignored the return value, potentially leading to response
packets being lost.

Code in two of the functions was exactly the same. This patch moves
this code to a new function which is called from the two functions
mentioned initially.

At several places, there are functions that take a cycle value as input
and performs some computation. Along with each such function, another
function was being defined that simply added one more cycle to input and
computed the same function. This patch removes this second copy of the
function. Places where these functions were being called have been updated
to use the original function with argument being current cycle + 1.

The introduction of parallel event queues added most of the support
needed to run multiple VMs (systems) within the same gem5
instance. This changeset fixes up signal delivery so that KVM's
control signals are delivered to the thread that executes the CPU's
event queue. Specifically:
* Timers and counters are now initialized from a separate method
(startupThread) that is scheduled as the first event in the
thread-specific event queue. This ensures that they are
initialized from the thread that is going to execute the CPUs
event queue and enables signal delivery to the right thread when
exiting from KVM.
* The POSIX-timer-based KVM timer (used to force exits from KVM) has
been updated to deliver signals to the thread that's executing KVM
instead of the process (thread is undefined in that case). This
assumes that the timer is instantiated from the thread that is
going to execute the KVM vCPU.
* Signal masking is now done using pthread_sigmask instead of
sigprocmask. The behavior of the latter is undefined in threaded
applications.
* Since signal masks can be inherited, make sure to actively unmask
the control signals when setting up the KVM signal mask.
There are currently no facilities to multiplex between multiple KVM
CPUs in the same event queue, we are therefore limited to
configurations where there is only one KVM CPU per event queue. In
practice, this means that multi-system configurations can be
simulated, but not multiple CPUs in a shared-memory configuration.
