2017-05-30misc: Reorder sources in util/tlm and rewrite build scriptsChristian Menard
* Use one SConstruct to build everything instead of one SConstruct for each example. * Introduce SConscripts for sub-directories. * Build in 'build' instead of the source tree. * Build and link to SystemC from the ext/systemc directory. This ensures that SystemC does not need to be installed on the host and avoids possible issues caused by an incompatible SystemC build. * Update the README and add some minor fixes Change-Id: I641ed94f542626864fb7af499ad1be8fd4ad929f Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/3480 Reviewed-by: Matthias Jung <jungma@eit.uni-kl.de> Reviewed-by: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com> Maintainer: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com>
2017-02-09misc: Clean up and complete the gem5<->SystemC-TLM bridge [7/10]Christian Menard
The current TLM bridge only provides a Slave Port that allows the gem5 world to send request to the SystemC world. This patch series refractors and cleans up the existing code, and adds a Master Port that allows the SystemC world to send requests to the gem5 world. This patch: * Implement 'pipe through' for gem5 Packets (see explanation below) Basically, this patch ensures that all transactions that originated in the gem5 world are converted back to the original packet when entering the gem5 world. So far, this only worked for packets that are responded to by a SyctemC component (e.g. when a gem5 CPU sends a request to a SystemC memory). By implementing the 'pipe through' this patch ensures, that packets that are responded to by a gem5 component (e.g. when a gem5 CPU sends a request to a gem5 memory via a SystemC interconnect) are handled properly.

2017-02-09misc: Clean up and complete the gem5<->SystemC-TLM bridge [1/10]Christian Menard
The current TLM bridge only provides a Slave Port that allows the gem5 world to send request to the SystemC world. This patch series refractors and cleans up the existing code, and adds a Master Port that allows the SystemC world to send requests to the gem5 world. This patch: * Restructure the existing sources in preparation of the addition of the * new Master Port. * Refractor names to allow for distinction of the slave and master port. * Replace the Makefile by a SConstruct. Testing Done: The examples provided in util/tlm (now util/tlm/examples/slave_port) still compile and run error free.

2015-08-03misc: Coupling gem5 with SystemC TLM2.0Matthias Jung
Transaction Level Modeling (TLM2.0) is widely used in industry for creating virtual platforms (IEEE 1666 SystemC). This patch contains a standard compliant implementation of an external gem5 port, that enables the usage of gem5 as a TLM initiator component in SystemC based virtual platforms. Both TLM coding paradigms loosely timed (b_transport) and aproximately timed (nb_transport) are supported. Compared to the original patch a TLM memory manager was added. Furthermore, the transaction object was removed and for each TLM payload a PacketPointer that points to the original gem5 packet is added as an TLM extension. For event handling single events are now created. Committed by: Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>
