This patch prunes unused values, and also unifies how the values are
defined (not using an enum for ALPHA), aligning the use of int vs Addr
etc.
The patch also removes the duplication of PageBytes/PageShift and
VMPageSize/LogVMPageSize. For all ISAs the two pairs had identical
values and the latter has been removed.
|
|
When passed from a configuration script with a hexadecimal value (like
"0x80000000"), gem5 would error out. This is because it would call
"toMemorySize" which requires the argument to end with a size specifier (like
1MB, etc).
This modification makes it so raw hex values can be passed through Addr
parameters from the configuration scripts.
|
|
This patch fixes the hash operator used for ARM ExtMachInst, which
incorrectly was still using uint32_t. Instead of changing it to
uint64_t it is not using the underlying data type of the BitUnion.
|
|
The Index type defined as typedef int64 does not really provide any help
since in most places we use primitive types instead of Index. Also, the name
Index is very generic that it does not merit being used as a typename.
|
|
This patch sets op class of two fp instructions: movfp and pop x87 stack
as IntAluOp since these instructions do not make use of the fp alu.
|
|
This patch moves code from the wakeup() function to a operateVnet().
The aim is to improve the readiblity of the code.
|

This patch is the final patch in a series of patches. The aim of the series
is to make ruby more configurable than it was. More specifically, the
connections between controllers are not at all possible (unless one is ready
to make significant changes to the coherence protocol). Moreover the buffers
themselves are magically connected to the network inside the slicc code.
These connections are not part of the configuration file.
This patch makes changes so that these connections will now be made in the
python configuration files associated with the protocols. This requires
each state machine to expose the message buffers it uses for input and output.
So, the patch makes these buffers configurable members of the machines.
The patch drops the slicc code that usd to connect these buffers to the
network. Now these buffers are exposed to the python configuration system
as Master and Slave ports. In the configuration files, any master port
can be connected any slave port. The file pyobject.cc has been modified to
take care of allocating the actual message buffer. This is inline with how
other port connections work.
|
|
A later changeset changes the file src/python/swig/pyobject.cc to include
a header file that includes a header file generated at build time depending
on the PROTOCOL in use. Since NULL ISA was not specifying any protocol,
this resulted in compilation problems. Hence, the changeset.
|
|
The namespace Message conflicts with the Message data type used extensively
in Ruby. Since Ruby is being moved to the same Master/Slave ports based
configuration style as the rest of gem5, this conflict needs to be resolved.
Hence, the namespace is being renamed to ProtoMessage.
|
|
There are two changes this patch makes to the way configurable members of a
state machine are specified in SLICC. The first change is that the data
member declarations will need to be separated by a semi-colon instead of a
comma. Secondly, the default value to be assigned would now use SLICC's
assignment operator i.e. ':='.
|
|
This patch changes the grammar for SLICC so as to remove some of the
redundant / duplicate rules. In particular rules for object/variable
declaration and class member declaration have been unified. Similarly, the
rules for a general function and a class method have been unified.
One more change is in the priority of two rules. The first rule is on
declaring a function with all the params typed and named. The second rule is
on declaring a function with all the params only typed. Earlier the second
rule had a higher priority. Now the first rule has a higher priority.
|
|
|
|
This changeset does away with prefixing of member variables of state machines
with the identity of the machine itself.
|
|
|
|
All the implementations were doing the same things.
|
|
There is another type Time in src/base class which results in a conflict.
|

The directory ruby/system is crowded and unorganized. Hence, the files the
hold actual physical structures, are being moved to the directory
ruby/structures. This includes Cache Memory, Directory Memory,
Memory Controller, Wire Buffer, TBE Table, Perfect Cache Memory, Timer Table,
Bank Array.
The directory ruby/systems has the glue code that holds these structures
together.

This patch enables the use of page tables that are stored in system memory
and respect x86 specification, in SE mode. It defines an architectural
page table for x86 as a MultiLevelPageTable class and puts a placeholder
class for other ISAs page tables, giving the possibility for future
implementation.
|
|
This patch defines a multi-level page table class that stores the page table in
system memory, consistent with ISA specifications. In this way, cpu models that
use the actual hardware to execute (e.g. KvmCPU), are able to traverse the page
table.

|
This patch ensures the cycle check is still valid even restoring from
a checkpoint. In this case the DRAMSim2 cycle count is relative to the
startTick rather than 0.
|
|
This patch ensures the functions can be used on const variables.

We currently use our own home-baked support for type-safe variadic
functions. This is confusing and somewhat limited (e.g., cprintf only
supports a limited number of arguments). This changeset converts all
uses of our internal varargs support to use C++11 variadic macros.
|
|
Add the macros M5_ATTR_FINAL and M5_ATTR_OVERRIDE which are defined to
final and override respectively if supported by the compiler. This is
done to allow a smooth transition to gcc >= 4.7.

MIPS defined RLIMIT_RSS in a way that could cause a naming conflict with
RLIMIT_RSS from the host system. Broke clang+MacOS build.
|
|
If a bit field in a bit union specified as Bitfield<LSB, MSB> instead
of Bitfield<MSB, LSB> the code silently fails and the field is read as
zero. This changeset introduces a static assert that tests, at compile
time, that the bit order is correct.
|
|
The order of the MSB and LSB bit of the mm field in the PSTATE union
is wrong. Any access to this field will currently be ignored and reads
will always return zero. This patch fixes the ordering so it is <MSB,
LSB> instead of <LSB, MSB>.

Update comments and add a reference for more information.

This patch fixes a bug in the DRAM controller address decoding. In
cases where the DRAM burst size (e.g. 32 bytes in a rank with a single
LPDDR3 x32) was smaller than the channel interleaving size
(e.g. systems with a 64-byte cache line) one address bit effectively
got used as a channel bit when it should have been a low-order column
bit.
This patch adds a notion of "columns per stripe", and more clearly
deals with the low-order column bits and high-order column bits. The
patch also relaxes the granularity check such that it is possible to
use interleaving granularities other than the cache line size.
The patch also adds a missing M5_CLASS_VAR_USED to the tCK member as
it is only used in the debug build for now.
|
|
This patch adds a fix for older checkpoints before support for
multiple event queues were added in changeset 2cce74fe359e. The change
in checkpoint version should really hav ebeen part of the
aforementioned changeset.
|
|
Some newer binaries compiled for Versatile Express TC2 contain access
to implementation specific L2MERRSR registers. This causes an infinite
loop of undefined exceptions. This patch changes the behavior to "warn
not fail" to keep the workloads going.
|
|
Baremetal workloads are specified using the "kernel" parameter, but
don't always have the correct address mappings. This patch adds a
boolean flag to the system and bypasses the kernel addr mapping checks
when running in baremetal mode.
|
|
The branch predictor is normally only built when a CPU that uses a
branch predictor is built. The list of CPUs is currently incomplete as
the simple CPUs support branch predictors (for warming, branch stats,
etc). In practice, all CPU models now use branch predictors, so this
changeset removes the CPU model check and replaces it with a check for
the NULL ISA.

Certain versions of clang complain about unused private members if
they are not used. This changeset removes such members from the
MIPS-specific classes to silence the warning.

Certain versions of clang complain about unused private members if

POWER-specific ProcessInfo struct to silence the warning.

This changeset fixes three types of warnings that occur in clang 3.4
on Ubuntu 12.04:
* Certain versions of libstdc++ (primarily 4.8) use struct and class
interchangeably. This triggers a warning in clang.
* Swig has a tendency to generate code with the register class which
was deprecated in C++11. This triggers a deprecation warning in
clang.
* Swig sometimes generates Python wrapper code which returns
uninitialized values. It's unclear if this is actually a problem
(the cases might be limited to failure paths). We'll silence these
warnings for now since there is little we can do about the
generated code.

The M5_PRAGMA_NORETURN macro was only used in for
__exit_message. Since the macro only holds a stub definition and all
functions with noreturn semantics use the M5_ATTR_NORETURN, this
macros is completely redundant.
|
|
RefCountingPtr is sometimes forward declared to avoid having to
include refcnt.hh. This does not work since we typically return
instances of RefCountingPtr rather than references to instances. The
only reason this currently works is that we include refcnt.hh in
cprintf.hh, which "leaks" the header to most other source files. This
changeset replaces such forward declarations with an include of
refcnt.hh.

When a cacheline is written back to a lower-level cache,
tags->insertBlock() sets various status parameters. However these
status bits were cleared immediately after calling. This patch makes
it so that these status fields are not cleared by moving them outside
of the tags->insertBlock() call.
|
|
This patch does some minor house keeping of the branch predictor by
adopting STL containers, and shifting some iterator to use range-based
for loops.
The predictor history is also changed from a list to a deque as we
never to insertion/deletion other than at the front and back.

This patch adds the SubSystem container for grouping
simobjects together in logical subsystems to facilitate
building a larger system from constituent parts. The container
is simply a non-abstract empty simobject to hold the components
that will be connected as its children. In simulation the
object does not participate, its only use is during configuration
of the system.
|
|
This patch adds helper functions to SimObject.py, params.py and
simulate.py to enable the new configuration system. Functions like
enumerateParams() in SimObject lets the config system auto-generate
command line options for simobjects to be modified on the command
line.
Params in params.py have __call__() added
to their definition to allow the argparse module to use them
as a type to check command input is in the proper format.
|
|
This patch adds a check to ensure that packets which are not going to
a memory range are suppressed in the traffic generator. Thus, if a
trace is collected in full-system, the packets destined for devices
are not played back.

A bit of pruning

this patch implements a new tags class that uses a random replacement policy.
these tags prefer to evict invalid blocks first, if none are available a
replacement candidate is chosen at random.
this patch factors out the common code in the LRU class and creates a new
abstract class: the BaseSetAssoc class. any set associative tag class must
implement the functionality related to the actual replacement policy in the
following methods:
accessBlock()
findVictim()
insertBlock()
invalidate()

This patch contains a new CPU model named `Minor'. Minor models a four
stage in-order execution pipeline (fetch lines, decompose into
macroops, decompose macroops into microops, execute).
The model was developed to support the ARM ISA but should be fixable
to support all the remaining gem5 ISAs. It currently also works for
Alpha, and regressions are included for ARM and Alpha (including Linux
boot).
Documentation for the model can be found in src/doc/inside-minor.doxygen and
its internal operations can be visualised using the Minorview tool
utils/minorview.py.
Minor was designed to be fairly simple and not to engage in a lot of
instruction annotation. As such, it currently has very few gathered
stats and may lack other gem5 features.
Minor is faster than the o3 model. Sample results:
Benchmark | Stat host_seconds (s)
---------------+--------v--------v--------
(on ARM, opt) | simple | o3 | minor
| timing | timing | timing
---------------+--------+--------+--------
10.linux-boot | 169 | 1883 | 1075
10.mcf | 117 | 967 | 491
20.parser | 668 | 6315 | 3146
30.eon | 542 | 3413 | 2414
40.perlbmk | 2339 | 20905 | 11532
50.vortex | 122 | 1094 | 588

Surprisingly gcc will complain about unused variables even
inside an 'if (false)' block.
I thought I had tested this previously, but apparently not.

Stop setting the use_default_range flag in PioBus in order to
have random bad addresses result in a BadAddress response and
not a gem5 fatal error. This is necessary in Ruby as Ruby is
connected directly to PioBus, so misspeculated addresses will
be sent there directly. For the classic memory system, this
change has no effect, as bad addresses are caught by the
memory bus before being sent to the PioBus.
This work was done while Binh was an intern at AMD Research.

The System object has a static MemoryModeStrings array
that's (1) unused and (2) redundant, since there's an
auto-generated version in the Enums namespace. No
point in leaving it in.
