Update stats for recent changes. Mostly minor changes
in register access stats due to addition of new cc
register type and slightly different (and more accurate)
classification of int vs. fp register accesses.
|
|
In the unusual case that regressions are run with --update-ref
when there is no existing regression output, scons gets
confused because it depends on stats.txt to trigger the
update, but it has no indication that running the test will
generate the stats.txt file. (In the typical case where
stats.txt already exists, scons doesn't care about where
it came from.)
It's easy to fix this just by adding the stats.txt file
to the target list for the test action.

This patch simply brings the stats for the pc-simple-timing-ruby
regression up to date. The particular regression seems to give
different results on different systems unfortunately, and this update
reflects the current behaviour on zizzer.
|
|
The updates to the x87 caused the stats for several regressions to
change. This was mainly caused by the addition of a working 32-bit and
80-bit FP load instruction and xsave support.
|
|
Apparently only stats.txt was updated the last time, so
this changeset updates other reference output files
(config.ini, simout, simerr, ruby.stats) so that
test output diffs should not be cluttered with irrelevant
changes. There are a few stats.txt updates too, but
they are in the minority.

This patch simply takes a first step to use the NULL ISA build for
tests that do not make use of a CPU. Most of the Ruby tests could go
the same way, but to avoid duplicating a lot of compilation targets
that will have to wait until Ruby is built as a library and linked in
independently.

The number of transitions per cycle that a controller can carry out is
a proxy for the number of ports that a controller has. This value is
currently 32 which is way too high. The patch introduces an option
for the number of ports and uses this option in the protocol files
to set the number of transitions. The default value is being set to
4. None of the se regressions change. Ruby stats for the fs regression
change and are being updated.
|
|
This patch updates the stats to reflect the: 1) addition of the
internal queue in SimpleMemory, 2) moving of the memory class outside
FSConfig, 3) fixing up of the 2D vector printing format, 4) specifying
burst size and interface width for the DRAM instead of relying on
cache-line size, 5) performing merging in the DRAM controller write
buffer, and 6) fixing how idle cycles are counted in the atomic and
timing CPU models.
The main reason for bundling them up is to minimise the changeset
size.
|
|
This patch changes the default parameter value of conf_table_reported
to match the common case. It also simplifies the regression and config
scripts to reflect this change.

This patch adds the notion of voltage domains, and groups clock
domains that operate under the same voltage (i.e. power supply) into
domains. Each clock domain is required to be associated with a voltage
domain, and the latter requires the voltage to be explicitly set.
A voltage domain is an independently controllable voltage supply being
provided to section of the design. Thus, if you wish to perform
dynamic voltage scaling on a CPU, its clock domain should be
associated with a separate voltage domain.
The current implementation of the voltage domain does not take into
consideration cases where there are derived voltage domains running at
ratio of native voltage domains, as with the case where there can be
on-chip buck/boost (charge pumps) voltage regulation logic.
The regression and configuration scripts are updated with a generic
voltage domain for the system, and one for the CPUs.

This patch moves the instantiation of the memory controller outside
FSConfig and instead relies on the mem_ranges to pass the information
to the caller (e.g. fs.py or one of the regression scripts). The main
motivation for this change is to expose the structural composition of
the memory system and allow more tuning and configuration without
adding a large number of options to the makeSystem functions.
The patch updates the relevant example scripts to maintain the current
functionality. As the order that ports are connected to the memory bus
changes (in certain regresisons), some bus stats are shuffled
around. For example, what used to be layer 0 is now layer 1.
Going forward, options will be added to support the addition of
multi-channel memory controllers.

The statistics for 30.eio-mp, pc-simple-timing-ruby tests are being updated
to incorporate the changes due to recent patches.
|
|
The configs for pc-simple-timing-ruby, t1000-simple-atomic had not been
updated correctly in the patch 6e6cefc1db1f.
|
|
This patch removes the sparse histogram total from the CommMonitor
stats. It also bumps the stats after the unit fixes in the atomic
cache access. Lastly, it updates the stats to match the new port
ordering. All numbers are the same, and the only thing that changes is
which master corresponds to what port index.
|
|
This patch adds the notion of source- and derived-clock domains to the
ClockedObjects. As such, all clock information is moved to the clock
domain, and the ClockedObjects are grouped into domains.
The clock domains are either source domains, with a specific clock
period, or derived domains that have a parent domain and a divider
(potentially chained). For piece of logic that runs at a derived clock
(a ratio of the clock its parent is running at) the necessary derived
clock domain is created from its corresponding parent clock
domain. For now, the derived clock domain only supports a divider,
thus ensuring a lower speed compared to its parent. Multiplier
functionality implies a PLL logic that has not been modelled yet
(create a separate clock instead).
The clock domains should be used as a mechanism to provide a
controllable clock source that affects clock for every clocked object
lying beneath it. The clock of the domain can (in a future patch) be
controlled by a handler responsible for dynamic frequency scaling of
the respective clock domains.
All the config scripts have been retro-fitted with clock domains. For
the System a default SrcClockDomain is created. For CPUs that run at a
different speed than the system, there is a seperate clock domain
created. This domain incorporates the CPU and the associated
caches. As before, Ruby runs under its own clock domain.
The clock period of all domains are pre-computed, such that no virtual
functions or multiplications are needed when calling
clockPeriod. Instead, the clock period is pre-computed when any
changes occur. For this to be possible, each clock domain tracks its
children.

This patch extends the existing system builders to also include a
syscall-emulation builder. This builder is deployed in all
syscall-emulation regressions that do not involve Ruby,
i.e. o3-timing, simple-timing and simple-atomic, as well as the
multi-processor regressions o3-timing-mp, simple-timing-mp and
simple-atomic-mp (the latter are only used by SPARC at this point).
The values chosen for the cache sizes match those that were used in
the existing config scripts (despite being on the large
side). Similarly, a mem_class parameter is added to the builder base
class to enable simple-atomic to use SimpleMemory and o3-timing to use
the default DDR3 configuration.
Due to the different order the ports are connected, the bus stats get
shuffled around for the multi-processor regressions. A separate patch
bumps the port indices. Besides this, all behaviour is exactly the
same.
|
|
This patch adds a 'sys_clock' command-line option and use it to assign
clocks to the system during instantiation.
As part of this change, the default clock in the System class is
removed and whenever a system is instantiated a system clock value
must be set. A default value is provided for the command-line option.
The configs and tests are updated accordingly.
|
|
This patch removes the explicit setting of the clock period for
certain instances of CoherentBus, NonCoherentBus and IOCache where the
specified clock is same as the default value of the system clock. As
all the values used are the defaults, there are no performance
changes. There are similar cases where the toL2Bus is set to use the
parent CPU clock which is already the default behaviour.
The main motivation for these simplifications is to ease the
introduction of clock domains.
|
|
This patch prunes the 00.gzip regressions with the main motivation
being that it adds little (or no) coverage and requires a substantial
amount of run time.
A complete regression run, including compilation from a clean repo, is
almost 20% faster(!).
|
|
This patch changes the regression script such that it is possible to
identify the runs that fail with an exit code, and those that finish
with stats differences. The ones that truly fail are reported as
FAILED, and those that finish with changed stats as CHANGED.
The yellow colour has been reclaimed from the skipped regressions and
is now used for the changed ones. With no obvious good option left the
skipped ones are now in cyan.
While I was editing the script I also bumped any occurence of M5 to
gem5.

This patch bumps the x86 stats to reflect the recent fixes.
|

Ruby's controller statistics have been mostly moved to stats.txt now.
Plus stats.txt for solaris/t1000-simple-atomic and arm/20.parser are
also being updated.
|
|
|
|
This patch updates the stats to reflect the addition of the bus stats,
and changes to the bus layers. In addition it updates the stats to
match the addition of the static pipeline latency of the memory
conotroller and the addition of a stat tracking the bytes per
activate.
|
|
This patch changes the class names of the variuos DRAM configurations
to better reflect what memory they are based on. The speed and
interface width is now part of the name, and also the alias that is
used to select them on the command line.
Some minor changes are done to the actual parameters, to better
reflect the named configurations. As a result of these changes the
regressions change slightly and the stats will be bumped in a separate
patch.
|
|
This is due to op class, function call, walker patches.
|
|
|
|
This patch adds the memory type parameter to the t1000 regression.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This patch enables selection of the memory controller class through a
mem-type command-line option. Behind the scenes, this option is
treated much like the cpu-type, and a similar framework is used to
resolve the valid options, and translate the short-hand description to
a valid class.
The regression scripts are updated with a hardcoded memory class for
the moment. The best solution going forward is probably to get the
memory out of the makeSystem functions, but Ruby complicates things as
it does not connect the memory controller to the membus.

This changeset adds support for initializing a KVM VM in the
BaseSystem test class and adds the following methods in run.py:
require_file -- Test if a file exists and abort/skip if not.
require_kvm -- Test if KVM support has been compiled into gem5 (i.e.,
BaseKvmCPU exists) and the KVM device exists on the
host.

Add the options 'panic_on_panic' and 'panic_on_oops' to the
LinuxArmSystem SimObject. When these option are enabled, the simulator
panics when the guest kernel panics or oopses. Enable panic on panic
and panic on oops in ARM-based test cases.

This patch merely bumps the stats to match the changes introduced in
changeset 35198406dd72.

This patch bumps the stats for the failing vortex o3 regression.
|

The new changeset that can reorder Ruby profilers will cause the ruby.stats
files to reordered statistics (the point of the patch). Update the references
to ensure that these changes are reflected in regressions.
