2017-04-03dev: Add a dummy VirtIO deviceAndreas Sandberg
VirtIO transport interfaces always expect a VirtIO device pointer. However, there are cases (in particular when using VirtIO's MMIO interface) where we want to instantiate an interface without a device. Add a dummy device using VirtIO device ID 0 and no queues to handle this use case.

2017-03-13dev, arm: Add draining to the GIC modelAndreas Sandberg
The GIC model currently adds a delay to interrupts when posting them to a target CPU. This means that an interrupt signal will be represented by an event for a short period of time. We currently ignore this when draining and serialize the tick when the interrupt will fire. Upon loading the checkpoint, the simulated GIC reschedules the pending events. This behaviour is undesirable when we implement support for switching between in-kernel GIC emulation and gem5 GIC emulation. In that case, the (kernel) GIC model gets a lot simpler if we don't need to worry about in-flight interrupts from the gem5 GIC. This changeset adds a draining check to force the GIC into a state where all interrupts have been delivered prior to checkpointing/CPU switching. It also removes the now redundant serialization of interrupt events.

2017-03-07dev: Add support for single-pass scan out in the PixelPumpSudhanshu Jha
Add a helper function to scan out an entire frame in one time step. This requires the public PixelPump to be changed somewhat to separate timing updates from general PixelPump control. Instead of calling PixelPump::start(timings), timings now need to be updated using a separate call to PixelPump::updateTimings(timings) before calling PixelPump::start(). Display controllers that don't need accurate timing (e.g., in KVM mode), can use the new PixelPump::renderFrame() API to render an entire frame in one step. This call results in the same callbacks (e.g., calls to nextPixel()) as the timing calls, but they all happen in immediately. Unlike the timing counterpart, renderFrame() doesn't support buffer underruns and will panic if nextPixle() indicates an underrun.

2017-02-27base: Refactor logging to make log level selection cleanerAndreas Sandberg
It's currently possible to change the log level in gem5 by tweaking a set of global variables. These variables are currently exposed to Python using SWIG. This mechanism is far from ideal for two reasons: First, changing the log level requires that the Python world enables or disables individual levels. Ideally, this should be a single call where a log level is selected. Second, exporting global variables is poorly supported by most Python frameworks. SWIG puts variables in their own namespace and PyBind doesn't seem to support it at all. This changeset refactors the logging code to create a more abstract interface. Each log level is associated with an instance of a Logger class. This class contains common functionality, an enable flag, and a verbose flag. Available LogLevels are described by the LogLevel class. Lower log levels are used for more critical messages (PANIC being level 0) and higher levels for less critical messages. The highest log level that is printed is controlled by calling Logger:setLevel().

2017-02-27python: Add a generalized mechanism to configure statsAndreas Sandberg
Add a mechanism to configure the stat output format using a URL-like syntax. This makes it possible to specify both an output format (currently, only text is supported) and override default parameters. On the Python-side, this is implemented using a helper function (m5.stats.addStatVisitor) that adds a visitor to the list of active stat visitors. The helper function parses a URL-like stat specification to determine the stat output type. Optional parameters can be specified to change how stat visitors behave. For example, to output stats in text format without stat descriptions: m5.stats.addStatVisitor("text://stats.txt?desc=False") From the command line: gem5.opt --stats-file="text://stats.txt?desc=False" Internally, the stat framework uses the _url_factory decorator to wrap a Python function with the fn(path, **kwargs) signature in a function that takes a parsed URL as its only argument. The path and keyword arguments are automatically derived from the URL in the wrapper function. New output formats can be registered in the m5.stats.factories dictionary. This dictionary contains a mapping between format names (URL schemes) and factory methods. To retain backwards compatibility, the code automatically assumes that the user wants text output if no format has been specified (i.e., when specifying a plain path).

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.
2015-07-20style: [patch 12/22] fix preliminary style issues for subsequent fault patchBrandon Potter
This changeset add spaces in a few spots and removes an unnecessary comment.
2015-07-20syscall_emul: [patch 11/22] extend functionality of fcntlBrandon Potter
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.
