2012-06-05ARM: Fix compilation on ARM after Gabe's change.Ali Saidi
2012-06-04ISA: Turn the ExtMachInst NoopMachinst into the StaticInstPtr NoopStaticInst.Gabe Black
This eliminates a use of the ExtMachInst type outside of the ISAs.
2012-06-04X86: Ensure that the CPUID instruction always writes its outputs.Gabe Black
The CPUID instruction was implemented so that it would only write its results if the instruction was successful. This works fine on the simple CPU where unwritten registers retain their old values, but on a CPU like O3 with renaming this is broken. The instruction needs to write the old values back into the registers explicitly if they aren't being changed.
2012-06-04X86: Ensure that the decoder's internal ExtMachInst is completely initialized.Gabe Black
There are some bits of some fields of the ExtMachInst which are not actually used for anything but are included in the hash of an ExtMachInst for simplicity and efficiency. This change makes sure the decoder's internal working ExtMachInst is completely initialized, even these unused bits, so that there isn't any nondeterministic behavior, no valgrind messages about uninitialized variables, and no potential false misses/redundant entries in the decode cache.
2012-05-31Bus: Split the bus into a non-coherent and coherent busAndreas Hansson
This patch introduces a class hierarchy of buses, a non-coherent one, and a coherent one, splitting the existing bus functionality. By doing so it also enables further specialisation of the two types of buses. A non-coherent bus connects a number of non-snooping masters and slaves, and routes the request and response packets based on the address. The request packets issued by the master connected to a non-coherent bus could still snoop in caches attached to a coherent bus, as is the case with the I/O bus and memory bus in most system configurations. No snoops will, however, reach any master on the non-coherent bus itself. The non-coherent bus can be used as a template for modelling PCI, PCIe, and non-coherent AMBA and OCP buses, and is typically used for the I/O buses. A coherent bus connects a number of (potentially) snooping masters and slaves, and routes the request and response packets based on the address, and also forwards all requests to the snoopers and deals with the snoop responses. The coherent bus can be used as a template for modelling QPI, HyperTransport, ACE and coherent OCP buses, and is typically used for the L1-to-L2 buses and as the main system interconnect. The configuration scripts are updated to use a NoncoherentBus for all peripheral and I/O buses. A bit of minor tidying up has also been done. --HG-- rename : src/mem/bus.cc => src/mem/coherent_bus.cc rename : src/mem/bus.hh => src/mem/coherent_bus.hh rename : src/mem/bus.cc => src/mem/noncoherent_bus.cc rename : src/mem/bus.hh => src/mem/noncoherent_bus.hh
2012-05-30gcc: Small fixes to compile with gcc 4.7Andreas Hansson
This patch makes two very minor changes to please gcc 4.7. The CopyData function no longer exists and this has been replaced. For some reason previous versions of gcc did not complain on the const char casting not having an implementation, but this is now addressed.
2012-05-30Bus: Remove redundant packet parameter from isOccupiedAndreas Hansson
This patch merely remove the Packet* from the isOccupied member function. Historically this was used to check if the packet was an express snoop, but this is now done outside this function (where relevant).
2012-05-30Bus: Turn the PortId into a transport function parameterAndreas Hansson
The main aim of this patch is to arrive at a suitable port interface for vector ports, including both the packet and the port id. This patch changes the bus transport functions (recvFunctional/Atomic/Timing) to require a PortId parameter indicating the source port. Previously this information was passed by setting the source field of the packet, and this is only required in the case of a timing request. With this patch, the use of the source and destination field is also more restrictive, as they are only needed for timing accesses. The modifications to these fields for atomic snoops is now removed entirely, also making minor modifications to the cache.
2012-05-30Packet: Unify the use of PortID in packet and portAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the Packet::NodeID typedef and unifies it with the Port::PortId. The src and dest fields in the packet are used to hold a port id (e.g. in the bus), and thus the two should actually be the same. The typedef PortID is now global (in base/types.hh) and aligned with the ThreadID in terms of capitalisation and naming of the InvalidPortID constant. Before this patch, two flags were used for valid destination and source, rather than relying on a named value (InvalidPortID), and this is now redundant, as the src and dest field themselves are sufficient to tell whether the current value is a valid port identifier or not. Consequently, the VALID_SRC and VALID_DST are removed. As part of the cleaning up, a number of int parameters and local variables are updated to use PortID. Note that Ruby still has its own NodeID typedef. Furthermore, the MemObject getMaster/SlavePort still has an int idx parameter with a default value of -1 which should eventually change to PortID idx = InvalidPortID.
2012-05-30Packet: Updated comments for src and dest fieldsAndreas Hansson
This patch updates the comments for the src and dest fields to reflect their actual use. Due to a number of patches (e.g. removing the Broadcast flag), the old comments are no longer indicative of the current usage.
2012-05-30Bridge: Split deferred request, response and sender stateAndreas Hansson
This patch splits the PacketBuffer class into a RequestState and a DeferredRequest and DeferredResponse. Only the requests need a SenderState, and the deferred requests and responses only need an associated point in time for the request and the response queue. Besides the cleaning up, the goal is to simplify the transition to a new port handshake, and with these changes, the two packet queues are starting to look very similar to the generic packet queue, but currently they do a few unique things relating to the NACK and counting of requests/responses that the packet queue cannot be conveniently used. This will be addressed in a later patch.
2012-05-28X86: Use the HandyM5Reg to avoid a register read and some logic in the TLB.Gabe Black
2012-05-27X86: Move the GDT down to where it can be accessed in 32 bit mode.Gabe Black
The GDT can be accessed by user level software running in compatibility mode by moving segment selectors into segment registers. The GDT needs to be set up at an address accessible in this mode.
2012-05-27X86: Truncate addresses to 32 bits except in 64 bit mode, not long mode.Gabe Black
A small change was added a while ago to keep addresses from overflowing 32 bits when larger addresses shouldn't be accessible to software. That change truncated when not in long mode, but really it should have truncated when not in 64 bit mode. The difference is whether compatibility mode is included, a mode that's supposed to act like a legacy 32 bit mode.
2012-05-26ISA,CPU: Generalize and split out the components of the decode cache.Gabe Black
This will allow it to be specialized by the ISAs. The existing caching scheme is provided by the BasicDecodeCache in the GenericISA namespace and is built from the generalized components. --HG-- rename : src/cpu/decode_cache.cc => src/arch/generic/decode_cache.cc
2012-05-26CPU: Merge the predecoder and decoder.Gabe Black
These classes are always used together, and merging them will give the ISAs more flexibility in how they cache things and manage the process. --HG-- rename : src/arch/x86/predecoder_tables.cc => src/arch/x86/decoder_tables.cc
2012-05-25ISA: Make the decode function part of the ISA's decoder.Gabe Black
2012-05-25CPU: Simplify the implementation of the decode cache.Gabe Black
Also reorganize it to make it more amenable to being rearranged later.
2012-05-25Decode: Make the Decoder class defined per ISA.Gabe Black
--HG-- rename : src/cpu/decode.cc => src/arch/generic/decoder.cc rename : src/cpu/decode.hh => src/arch/generic/decoder.hh
2012-05-24Cache: Remove dangling doWriteback declarationAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the declaration of doWriteback as there is no implementation for this member function.
2012-05-23Packet: Cleaning up packet command and attributeAndreas Hansson
This patch removes unused commands and attributes from the packet to avoid any confusion. It is part of an effort to clear up how and where different commands and attributes are used.
2012-05-23Config: Use the attribute naming and include ports in JSONAndreas Hansson
This patch changes the organisation of the JSON output slightly to make it easier to traverse and use the files. Most importantly, the hierarchical dictionaries now use keys that correspond to the attribute names also in the case of VectorParams (used to be e.f. "cpu0 cpu1"). It also adds the name and the path to each SimObject directory entry. Before this patch, to get cpu0, you would have to query dict['system']['cpu0 cpu1'][0] and this could be a dict with 'cpu0' : { cpu parameters }. Now you use dict['system']['cpu'][0] and get { cpu parameters } (where one is "name" : "cpu0"). Additionally this patch includes more verbose information about the ports, specifying their role, and using a JSON array rather than a concatenated string for the peer.
2012-05-23DMA: Split the DMA device and IO device into seperate filesAndreas Hansson
This patch moves the DMA device to its own set of files, splitting it from the IO device. There are no behavioural changes associated with this patch. The patch also grabs the opportunity to do some very minor tidying up, including some white space removal and pruning some redundant parameters. Besides the immediate benefits of the separation-of-concerns, this patch also makes upcoming changes more streamlined as it split the devices that are only slaves and the DMA device that also acts as a master. --HG-- rename : src/dev/io_device.cc => src/dev/dma_device.cc rename : src/dev/io_device.hh => src/dev/dma_device.hh
2012-05-23MEM: Add a snooping DMA port subclass for table walkerAndreas Hansson
This patch makes the (device) DmaPort non-snooping and removes the recvSnoop constructor parameter and instead introduces a SnoopingDmaPort subclass for the ARM table walker. Functionality is unchanged, as are the stats, and the patch merely clarifies that the normal DMA ports are not snooping (although they may issue requests that are snooped by others, as done with PCI, PCIe, AMBA4 ACE etc). Currently this port is declared in the ARM table walker as it is not used anywhere else. If other ports were to have similar behaviour it could be moved in a future patch.
2012-05-23Config: Exit with fatal if a port is already connectedAndreas Hansson
This patch turns the existing warning into a fatal, as there should never be any cases where a (non-vector) port is assigned to and then later connected to something else. If this behaviour is allowed, as it used to be, there are cases where the wrong number of C++ ports are created when instantiating objects with VectorPorts (obviously that could be fixed, but the better approach is to simply not allow it).
2012-05-22Ruby: Remove the unused src/mem/ruby/common/Driver.* files.Nilay Vaish
2012-05-22Ruby Sequencer: Schedule deadlock check event at correct timeNilay Vaish
The scheduling of the deadlock check event was being done incorrectly as the clock was not being multiplied, so as to convert the time into ticks. This patch removes that bug.
2012-05-22X86: Split Condition Code registerNilay Vaish
This patch moves the ECF and EZF bits to individual registers (ecfBit and ezfBit) and the CF and OF bits to cfofFlag registers. This is being done so as to lower the read after write dependencies on the the condition code register. Ultimately we will have the following registers [ZAPS], [OF], [CF], [ECF], [EZF] and [DF]. Note that this is only one part of the solution for lowering the dependencies. The other part will check whether or not the condition code register needs to be actually read. This would be done through a separate patch.
2012-05-19x86 ISA: Implement the sse3 haddps instruction.Marc Orr
Shuffle the 32 bit values into position, and then add in parallel.
2012-05-19Syscalls: warn when the length argument to mmap is excessive.Gabe Black
If the length argument to mmap is larger than the arbitrary but reasonable limit of 4GB, there's a good chance that the value is nonsense and not intentional. Rather than attempting to satisfy the mmap anyway, this change makes gem5 warn to make it more apparent what's going wrong.
2012-05-14Mem: Fix size check when allocating physical memoryLena Olson
2012-05-10ARM: fix the calculation of the values in the RV clocksKoan-Sin Tan
This clock is used by the linux scheduler.
2012-05-10stats: fix compilation of unit test.Ali Saidi
2012-05-10stats: fix bug in assert for 2d vectorAli Saidi
2012-05-10ARM: pl011 raw interrupt fixChander Sudanthi
Raw interrupt was not being set when interrupt was disabled. This patch sets the raw interrupt regardless of the mask.
2012-05-10ARM: EMM board address range fixChander Sudanthi
0x40000000 is reservered for external AXI addresses. This address range is not used currently. Removed the range from the bridge.
2012-05-10DOT: improved dot-based system visualizationUri Wiener
Revised system visualization to reflect structure and memory hierarchy. Improved visualization: less congested and cluttered; more colorful. Nodes reflect components; directed edges reflect dirctional relation, from a master port to a slave port. Requires pydot.
2012-05-10DOT: fixed broken code for visualizing configuration using dotUri Wiener
Fixed broken code which visualizes the system configuration by generating a tree from each component's children, starting from root. Requires DOT (hence pydot).
2012-05-10ARM: guard masked symbol tables by defaultDam Sunwoo
Symbol tables masked with the loadAddrMask create redundant entries that could conflict with kernel function events that rely on the original addresses. This patch guards the creation of those masked symbol tables by default, with an option to enable them when needed (for early-stage kernel debugging, etc.)
2012-05-10mem: fix bug with CopyStringOut and null string termination.Ali Saidi

2012-05-10stats: track if the stats have been enabled and prevent requesting master idAli Saidi
Track the point in the initialization where statistics have been registered. After this point registering new masterIds can no longer work as some SimObjects may have sized stats vectors based on the previous value. If someone tries to register a masterId after this point the simulator executes fatal().
2012-05-10Cache: Panic if you attempt to create a checkpoint with a cache in the systemAli Saidi
