According to the Intel Multi Processor Specification rev 1.4 (-006) (*),
section 4.3.2 Bus Entries, Bus type strings are >>6-character ASCII
(blank-filled) strings<<.
This patch properly pads the entries with the missing spaces at the end.

Given we do not simulate a FIFO currently there are only two states
we can be in upon read: empty or full. Properly signal the latter.
Add and sort constants for states in the header file.

Registers are 0x10 and not 0x8 apart. The latter leads to invalid
calculations of index in array which in turn means that we will not
find the interrupt we were looking (been notified) for in the OS.

the n_reg field in the GPUDynInst is not currently set in the constructor.
if it is not set externally, there are assertion failures that may occur
if the random value it gets is just right. here we set it to 0 by default.

The LinuxArmSystem class normally provides support for panicing gem5
if the simulated kernel panics. When this is turned off (default),
gem5 uses a BreakPCEvent to provide a debugger hook into the simulator
when the kernel crashes. This hook unconditionally kills gem5 with a
SIGTRAP unless gem5 is compiled in fast mode. This is undesirable
since the panic_on_panic param already provides similar functionality.

The Terminal device currently uses the peek functionality in gem5's
circular buffer implementation to send existing buffered content on
the terminal when a new client attaches. This functionallity is
however not implemented correctly and re-sends the same block multiple
time.
Add the required functionality to peek with an offset into the
circular buffer and change the Terminal::accept() implementation to
send the buffered contents.

Allow usage of packet class in ruby for convenience purposes. This may be
used to access members of the packet/request class (e.g., via helper
functions) and/or push protocol specific information to the packets
SenderState without needing to modify SLICC types and protocols in multiple
locations.

Somehow the WriteLineReq were never added to the list of commands
considered demand.

Prune cache stats that are never actually used.
|
|
This patch removes the write-queue entry tracking previously used for
uncacheable writes. The write-queue entry is now deallocated as soon
as the packet is sent. As a result we also forego the stats for
uncacheable writes. Additionally, there is no longer a need to attach
the write-queue entry to the packet.

This patch makes the control flow more uniform in atomic and timing,
ultimately making the code easier to understand.

Ruby's controller block_on behavior aimed to block MessageBuffer requests into
SLICC controllers when a Locked_RMW was in flight. Unfortunately, this
functionality only partially works: When non-Locked_RMW memory accesses are
issued to the sequencer to an address with an in-flight Locked_RMW, the
sequencer may pass those accesses through to the controller. At the controller,
a number of incorrect activities can occur depending on the protocol. In
MOESI_hammer, for example, an intermediate IFETCH will cause an L1D to L2
transfer, which cannot be serviced, because the block_on functionality blocks
the trigger queue, resulting in a deadlock. Further, if an intermediate store
arrives (e.g. from a separate SMT thread), the sequencer allows the request
through to the controller, and the atomicity of the Locked_RMW may be broken.
To avoid these problems, disallow the Sequencer from passing any memory
accesses to the controller besides Locked_RMW_Write when a Locked_RMW is in-
flight.

A few warnings (and thus errors) pop up after being added to -Wall:
1. -Wmisleading-indentation
In the auto-generated code there were instances of if/else blocks that
were not indented to gcc's liking. This is addressed by adding braces.
2. -Wshift-negative-value
gcc is clever enougn to consider ~0 a negative constant, and
rightfully complains. This is addressed by using mask() which
explicitly casts to unsigned before shifting.
That is all. Porting done.

Once again, clang is having issues with recently committed code.
Unfortunately HSAIL_X86 is still broken.

Queued prefetcher entries now count with a priority field. The idea is to
add packets ordered by priority and then by age.
For the existing algorithms in which priority doesn't make sense, it is set
to 0 for all deferred packets in the queue.
|
|
Some common functionality added to the base prefetcher, mainly dealing with
extracting the block address, page address, block index inside the page and
some other information that can be inferred from the block address. This is
used for some prefetching algorithms, and having the methods in the base,
as well as the block size and other information is the sensible way.

Added stat to the cache to account for HardPF'ed blocks that are evicted
before being referenced (over-prefetching).

In general, the ThreadID parameter is unnecessary in the memory system
as the ContextID is what is used for the purposes of locks/wakeups.
Since we allocate sequential ContextIDs for each thread on MT-enabled
CPUs, ThreadID is unnecessary as the CPUs can identify the requesting
thread through sideband info (SenderState / LSQ entries) or ContextID
offset from the base ContextID for a cpu.

some fixes of that commit.

The extant BTB code doesn't hash on the thread id but does check the

This changeset updates the dot output to bail out if it is unable to

This patch adds some basic support for power models in gem5.
The power interface is defined so it can interact with thermal
models as well. It implements a simple power evaluator that
can be used for simple power models that express power in the
form of a math expression. These expressions can use stats
within the same SimObject (or down its hierarchy) and some
magic variables such as "temp" for temperature.
In future patches we will extend this functionality to allow
slightly more complex expressions.
The model allows it to be extended to use other kinds of models.
Finally, the thermal model is updated to use the power usage as input.
|

Add functionality to the BaseCPU that will put the entire CPU into a low-power
idle state whenever all threads in it are idle.

Add 4 power states to the ClockedObject, provides necessary access functions
to check and update the power state. Default power state is UNDEFINED, it is
responsibility of the respective simulation model to provide the startup state
and any other logic for state change.
Add number of transition stat.
Add distribution of time spent in clock gated state.
Add power state residency stat.
Add dump call back function to allow stats update of distribution and residency
stats.

This patch enables Linux to read the temperature using hwmon infrastructure.
In order to use this in your gem5 you need to compile the kernel using the
following configs:
CONFIG_HWMON=y
CONFIG_SENSORS_VEXPRESS=y
And a proper dts file (containing an entry such as):
dcc {
compatible = "arm,vexpress,config-bus";
arm,vexpress,config-bridge = <&v2m_sysreg>;
temp@0 {
compatible = "arm,vexpress-temp";
arm,vexpress-sysreg,func = <4 0>;
label = "DCC";
};
};

This patch adds basic thermal support to gem5. It models energy dissipation
through a circuital equivalent, which allows us to use RC networks.
This lays down the basic infrastructure to do so, but it does not "work" due
to the lack of power models. For now some hardcoded number is used as a PoC.
The solver is embedded in the patch.

This patch adds a secondary dot output file which shows the DVFS domains. This
has been done separately for now to avoid cluttering the already existing
diagram. Due to the way that the clock domains are assigned to components in
gem5, this output must be generated after the C++ objects have been
instantiated. This further motivates the need to generate this file separately
to the current dot output, and not to replace it entirely.
|

This patch adds some additional information when draining the system which
allows the user to debug which SimObject(s) in the system is failing to drain.
Only enabled for the builds with tracing enabled and is subject to the Drain
debug flag being set at runtime.

This patch addresses an issue with the unserialization of clock
domains. Previously, the previous performance level was not restored
due to a bug in the code, which detected the post-unserialize update
as superfluous. This patch splits the setting of the clock domain into
two parts. The original interface of perfLevel is retained, but the
actual update takes place in signalPerfLevelUpdate, which is private
to the class. The perfLevel method checks that if the new performance
level is different to the previous performance level, and will only
call signalPerfLevelUpdate if there is a change. Therefore, the
performance level is only updated, and voltage domains notified, if
there is an actual change. The split functionality allows
signalPerfLevelUpdate to be called by startup() to explicitly force an
update post unserialization.
