2015-07-24base: refactor process class (specifically FdMap and friends)Brandon Potter
This patch extends the previous patch's alterations around fd_map. It cleans up some of the uglier code in the process file and replaces it with a more concise C++11 version. As part of the changes, the FdMap class is pulled out of the Process class and receives its own file.
2015-07-15dev: add support for multi gem5 runsGabor Dozsa
Multi gem5 is an extension to gem5 to enable parallel simulation of a distributed system (e.g. simulation of a pool of machines connected by Ethernet links). A multi gem5 run consists of seperate gem5 processes running in parallel (potentially on different hosts/slots on a cluster). Each gem5 process executes the simulation of a component of the simulated distributed system (e.g. a multi-core board with an Ethernet NIC). The patch implements the "distributed" Ethernet link device (dev/src/multi_etherlink.[hh.cc]). This device will send/receive (simulated) Ethernet packets to/from peer gem5 processes. The interface to talk to the peer gem5 processes is defined in dev/src/multi_iface.hh and in tcp_iface.hh. There is also a central message server process (util/multi/tcp_server.[hh,cc]) which acts like an Ethernet switch and transfers messages among the gem5 peers. A multi gem5 simulations can be kicked off by the util/multi/gem5-multi.sh wrapper script. Checkpoints are supported by multi-gem5. The checkpoint must be initiated by a single gem5 process. E.g., the gem5 process with rank 0 can take a checkpoint from the bootscript just before it invokes 'mpirun' to launch an MPI test. The message server process will notify all the other peer gem5 processes and make them take a checkpoint, too (after completing a global synchronisation to ensure that there are no inflight messages among gem5).
2015-07-03util: Remove DRAMPower trace scriptAndreas Hansson
This script is deprecated and DRAMPower is now properly integrated with the controller model.
2015-06-01sim, arm: add checkpoint upgrader for d02b45a5Curtis Dunham
The insertion of CONTEXTIDR_EL2 in the ARM miscellaneous registers obsoletes old checkpoints.
2015-03-19config: Add soak test for memtest.pyAndreas Hansson
This patch adds a random option to memtest.py which allows the user to easily test valid random tree topologies. The patch also adds a wrapper script to run soak tests using the newly introduced option. We also adjust the progress interval and progress limit check to make the output less noisy, and avoid false positives. Bring on the pain.
2015-02-16cpu: add support for outputing a protobuf formatted CPU traceAli Saidi
Doesn't support x86 due to static instruction representation. --HG-- rename : src/cpu/CPUTracers.py => src/cpu/InstPBTrace.py
2015-02-11style: Fix broken m5format commandAndreas Sandberg
The m5format command didn't actually work due to parameter handling issues and missing language detection. This changeset fixes those issues and cleans up some of the code to shared between the style checker and the format checker.
2015-02-11style: Fix incorrect style checker option nameAndreas Sandberg
The style used to support the option -w to automatically fix white space issues. However, this option was actually wired up to fix all styles issues the checker encountered. This changeset cleans up the code that handles automatic fixing and adds an option to fix all issues, and separate options for white spaces and include ordering.
2015-02-03style: Update the style checker to handle new include orderAndreas Sandberg
As of August 2014, the gem5 style guide mandates that a source file's primary header is included first in that source file. This helps to ensure that the header file does not depend on include file ordering and avoids surprises down the road when someone tries to reuse code. In the new order, include files are grouped into the following blocks: * Primary header file (e.g., foo.hh for foo.cc) * Python headers * C system/stdlib includes * C++ stdlib includes * Include files in the gem5 source tree Just like before, include files within a block are required to be sorted in alphabetical order. This changeset updates the style checker to enforce the new order.
2014-12-02config: Fix to SystemC example's event handlingAndrew Bardsley
This patch fixes checkpoint restore in the SystemC hosting example by handling early PollEvent events correctly before any EventQueue events are posted. The SystemC event queue handler (SCEventQueue) reports an error if the event loop is entered with no Events posted. It is possible for this to happen after instantiate due to PollEvent events. This patch separates out `external' events into a different handler in sc_module.cc to prevent the error from occurring. This fix also improves the event handling of asynchronous events by: 1) Making asynchronous events 'catch up' gem5 time to SystemC time to avoid the appearance that events have been lost while servicing an asynchronous event that schedules an event loop exit event 2) Add an in_simulate data member to Module to allow the event loop to check whether events should be processed or deferred until the next time Module::simulate is entered 3) Cancel pending events around the entry/exit of the event loop in Module::simulate 4) Moving the state initialisation of the example entirely into run to correct a problem with early events in checkpoint restore. It is still possible to schedule asynchronous events (and talk PollQueue actions) while simulate is not running. This behaviour may stil cause some problems.
2014-12-02config: SystemC Gem5Control top level additionsAndrew Bardsley
This patch cleans up a few style issues and adds a few capabilities to the SystemC top level 'Gem5Control/Gem5System' mechanism. These include: 1) A space to store/retrieve a version string for a model 2) A mechanism for registering functions to be called at the end of elaboration to perform simulation setup tasks in SystemC 3) Adding setGDBRemotePort to the Gem5Control 4) Changing the sc_set_time_resolution behaviour to instead check that the SystemC time resolution is already acceptable
2014-11-23kvm, x86: Adding support for SE mode executionAlexandru Dutu
This patch adds methods in KvmCPU model to handle KVM exits caused by syscall instructions and page faults. These types of exits will be encountered if KvmCPU is run in SE mode.
2014-11-14config: Fix checkpoint restore in C++ config exampleAndrew Bardsley
This patch fixes the checkpoint restore option in the example of C++ configuration (util/cxx_config). The fix introduces a call to config_manager->startup() (which calls startup on all SimObjects managed by that manager) to replicate the loop of SimObject::startup calls in src/python/m5/simulate.py::simulate guarded by need_startup. As util/cxx_config/main.cc is a C++ analogue of src/python/mt/simulate.py, it should make a similar set of calls.
2014-10-16sim: SystemC hostingAndrew Bardsley
This patch hosts gem5 onto SystemC scheduler. There's already an upstream review board patch that does something similar but this patch ...: 1) is less obtrusive to the existing gem5 code organisation. It's divided into the 'generic' preparatory patches (already submitted) and this patch which affects no existing files 2) does not try to exactly track the gem5 event queue with notifys into SystemC and so doesn't requive the event queue to be modified for anything other than 'out of event queue' scheduling events 3) supports debug logging with SC_REPORT The patch consists of the files: util/systemc/ sc_gem5_control.{cc,hh} -- top level objects to use to instantiate gem5 Systems within larger SystemC test harnesses as sc_module objects sc_logger.{cc,hh} -- logging support sc_module.{cc,hh} -- a separated event loop specific to SystemC stats.{cc,hh} -- example Stats handling for the sample top level main.{cc,hh} -- a sample top level On the downside this patch is only currently functional with C++ configuration at the top level. The above sc_... files are indended to be compiled alongside gem5 (as a library, see main.cc for a command line and util/systemc/README for more details.) The top-level system instantiation in sc_gem5_control.{cc,hh} provides two classes: Gem5Control and Gem5System Gem5Control is a simulation control class (from which a singleton object should be created) derived from Gem5SystemC::Module which carries the top level simulation control interface for gem5. This includes hosting a system-building configuration file and instantiating the Root object from that file. Gem5System is a base class for instantiating renamed gem5 Systems from the config file hosted by the Gem5Control object. In use, a SystemC module class should be made which represents the desired, instantiable gem5 System. That class's instances should create a Gem5System during their construction, set the parameters of that system and then call instantiate to build that system. If this is all carried out in the sc_core::sc_module-derived classes constructor, the System's external ports will become children of that module and can then be recovered by name using sc_core:: sc_find_object. It is intended that this interface is used with dlopen. To that end, the header file sc_gem5_control.hh includes no other header files from gem5 (and so can be easily copied into another project). The classes Gem5System and Gem5Control have all their member functions declared `virtual' so that those functions can be called through the vtable acquired by building the top level Gem5Control using dlsym(..., "makeGem5Control") and `makeSystem' on the Gem5Control.
2014-10-16config: Add the ability to read a config file using C++ and PythonAndreas Hansson
This patch adds the ability to load in config.ini files generated from gem5 into another instance of gem5 built without Python configuration support. The intended use case is for configuring gem5 when it is a library embedded in another simulation system. A parallel config file reader is also provided purely in Python to demonstrate the approach taken and to provided similar functionality for as-yet-unknown use models. The Python configuration file reader can read both .ini and .json files. C++ configuration file reading: A command line option has been added for scons to enable C++ configuration file reading: --with-cxx-config There is an example in util/cxx_config that shows C++ configuration in action. util/cxx_config/README explains how to build the example. Configuration is achieved by the object CxxConfigManager. It handles reading object descriptions from a CxxConfigFileBase object which wraps a config file reader. The wrapper class CxxIniFile is provided which wraps an IniFile for reading .ini files. Reading .json files from C++ would be possible with a similar wrapper and a JSON parser. After reading object descriptions, CxxConfigManager creates SimObjectParam-derived objects from the classes in the (generated with this patch) directory build/ARCH/cxx_config CxxConfigManager can then build SimObjects from those SimObjectParams (in an order dictated by the SimObject-value parameters on other objects) and bind ports of the produced SimObjects. A minimal set of instantiate-replacing member functions are provided by CxxConfigManager and few of the member functions of SimObject (such as drain) are extended onto CxxConfigManager. Python configuration file reading (configs/example/read_config.py): A Python version of the reader is also supplied with a similar interface to CxxConfigFileBase (In Python: ConfigFile) to config file readers. The Python config file reading will handle both .ini and .json files. The object construction strategy is slightly different in Python from the C++ reader as you need to avoid objects prematurely becoming the children of other objects when setting parameters. Port binding also needs to be strictly in the same port-index order as the original instantiation.
2014-10-11util: adds a script for using DSENTNilay Vaish
This patch adds a python script that processes the configuration and the statistics file from a simulation run. Configuration and activity of network routers and links obtained from this processing is fed to DSENT via its Python interface. DSENT then computes the area and the power consumption of these network components. The script outputs these quantities to the console.
2014-09-03config: Update Streamline scripts and configsDam Sunwoo
Updated the stat_config.ini files to reflect new structure. Moved to a more generic stat naming scheme that can easily handle multiple CPUs and L2s by letting the script replace pre-defined # symbols to CPU or L2 ids. Removed the previous per_switch_cpus sections. Still can be used by spelling out the stat names if necessary. (Resuming from checkpoints no longer use switch_cpus. Only fast-forwarding does.)
2014-04-29arm: use condition code registers for ARM ISACurtis Dunham
Analogous to ee049bf (for x86). Requires a bump of the checkpoint version and corresponding upgrader code to move the condition code register values to the new register file.
2014-09-03mem: Add utility script to plot DRAM efficiency sweepAndreas Hansson
This patch adds basic functionality to quickly visualise the output from the DRAM efficiency script. There are some unfortunate hacks needed to communicate the needed information from one script to the other, and we fall back on (ab)using the simout to do this. As part of this patch we also trim the efficiency sweep to stop at 512 bytes as this should be sufficient for all forseeable DRAMs.
2014-08-26style: Add support for a style ignore list and ignore ext/Andreas Sandberg
There are some directories within the repository where we don't want to enforce our coding style. Specifically, we don't want the style hooks to warn whenever we update external code in the ext/ directory.
2014-08-26style: Fixup strange semantics in hg m5styleAndreas Sandberg
The 'hg m5style' command had some rather strange semantics. When called without arguments, it applied the style checker to all added files and modified regions of modified files. However, when providing a list of files, it used that list as an ignore list instead of specifically checking those files. This patch makes the m5style command behave more like other Mercurial commands where the arguments are used to specify which files to work on instead of which files to ignore.
2014-02-05sim: bump checkpoint version for multiple event queuesCurtis Dunham
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.
2014-08-13util: Fix state leakage in the SortIncludes style verifierAndreas Sandberg
There are cases where the state of a SortIncludes object gets messed up and leaks between invocations/files. This typically happens when a file ends with an include block (dump_block() gets called at the end of __call__). In this case, the state of the class is not reset between files. This bug manifests itself as ghost includes that leak between files when applying the style hooks. This changeset adds a reset at the beginning of the __call__ method which ensures that the class is always in a clean state when processing a new file.
2014-08-10util: Move packet trace file read to protolibRadhika Jagtap
This patch moves the code for opening an input protobuf packet trace into a function defined in the protobuf library. This is because the code is commonly used in decode scripts and is independent of the src protobuf message.
2014-07-23cpu: `Minor' in-order CPU modelAndrew Bardsley
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 60.bzip2 | 2045 | 18061 | 9662 70.twolf | 207 | 2736 | 1036
2014-07-01util: Add DVFS perfLevel to checkpoint upgrade scriptRadhika Jagtap
This patch updates the checkpoint upgrader script. It adds the _perfLevel variable in the clock domain and voltage domain simObjects used for DVFS.
2014-06-30mem: DRAMPower trace formatting scriptAndreas Hansson
This patch adds a first version of a script that processes the debug output and generates a command trace for DRAMPower. This is work in progress and is intended as a snapshot of ongoing work at this point. The longer term plan is to link in DRAMPower as a library and have one instance of the model per rank, and instantiate it based on a struct passed from gem5. Each command will then be a call to the model and no parsing of traces will be necessary.
2014-06-09Util: Do not style check symlinksJoel Hestness
The style checker used to traverse symlinks if they pointed to files, which can result in style checker failure if the pointed-to file doesn't exist. This style check is actually unnecessary, since symlinks either point to other files that are already style checked, or files outside gem5, which shouldn't be checked. Skip symlinks.
2014-05-09arm: Add Makefile for aarch64 build of util/m5Eric Van Hensbergen
2014-04-23util: Valgrind suppression additionMitch Hayenga
Adds a suppression rule to util/valgrind-suppressions due to a minor bug present in zlib that has no impact on simulation.
2014-04-19ruby: recorder: Fix (de-)serializing with different cache block-sizesMarco Elver
Upon aggregating records, serialize system's cache-block size, as the cache-block size can be different when restoring from a checkpoint. This way, we can correctly read all records when restoring from a checkpoints, even if the cache-block size is different. Note, that it is only possible to restore from a checkpoint if the desired cache-block size is smaller or equal to the cache-block size when the checkpoint was taken; we can split one larger request into multiple small ones, but it is not reliable to do the opposite. Committed by: Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>
2014-04-01arm: fix typos in makefile for ARM m5 util and link staticallyAnthony Gutierrez
1) fixes a typo for clean target libgemOpJni.so -> libgem5OpJni.so 2) addes jni_gem5Op.h to clean since it is added during make 3) links the m5 utility statically since it won't work on some images otherwise
2014-03-23util: Add support for detection of gzipped packet tracesAndreas Hansson
This patch adds support for automatically detecting a gzipped packet trace, thus accepting either a compressed or uncompressed trace.
2014-03-07mem: Edit proto Packet and enhance the python scriptRadhika Jagtap
This patch changes the decode script to output the optional fields of the proto message Packet, namely id and flags. The flags field is set by the communication monitor. The id field is useful for CPU trace experiments, e.g. linking the fetch side to decode side. It had to be renamed because it clashes with a built in python function id() for getting the "identity" of an object. This patch also takes a few common function definitions out from the multiple scripts and adds them to a protolib python module.
2014-02-18util: Enhance the error messages for packet encode/decodeAndreas Hansson
This patch adds a more verbose error message when the Python protobuf module cannot be loaded.
2014-01-24arm: Add support for ARMv8 (AArch64 & AArch32)ARM gem5 Developers
Note: AArch64 and AArch32 interworking is not supported. If you use an AArch64 kernel you are restricted to AArch64 user-mode binaries. This will be addressed in a later patch. Note: Virtualization is only supported in AArch32 mode. This will also be fixed in a later patch.

2013-12-03util: update checkpoint aggregation scriptNilay Vaish
The checkpoint aggregation script had become outdated due to numerous changes to checkpoints over the past couple of years. This updates the script. It now supports aggregation for x86 architecture instead of alpha. Also a couple of new options have been added that specify the size of the memory file to be created and whether or not the memory file should be compressed.
2013-10-31ARM: add support for TEEHBR accessChander Sudanthi
Thumb2 ARM kernels may access the TEEHBR via thumbee_notifier in arch/arm/kernel/thumbee.c. The Linux kernel code just seems to be saving and restoring the register. This patch adds support for the TEEHBR cp14 register. Note, this may be a special case when restoring from an image that was run on a system that supports ThumbEE.
2013-10-31dev: Fix race conditions in IDE device on newer kernelsGeoffrey Blake
Newer linux kernels and distros exercise more functionality in the IDE device than previously, exposing 2 races. The first race is the handling of aborted DMA commands would immediately report the device is ready back to the kernel and cause already in flight commands to assert the simulator when they returned and discovered an inconsitent device state. The second race was due to the Status register not being handled correctly, the interrupt status bit would get stuck at 1 and the driver eventually views this as a bad state and logs the condition to the terminal. This patch fixes these two conditions by making the device handle aborted commands gracefully and properly handles clearing the interrupt status bit in the Status register.
2013-10-31arm: fix m5ops binary for ARM and add m5fail.Ali Saidi
Changes to make m5ops work under virtualization seemed to break them working with non-virtualized systems and the recently added m5 fail command makes the m5op binary not compile. For now remove the code for virtualization.
2013-10-17util: Streamline .apc project convertsion scriptDam Sunwoo
This Python script generates an ARM DS-5 Streamline .apc project based on gem5 run. To successfully convert, the gem5 runs needs to be run with the context-switch-based stats dump option enabled (The guest kernel also needs to be patched to allow gem5 interrogate its task information.) See help for more information.
2013-09-30x86: Add support for m5ops through a memory mapped interfaceAndreas Sandberg
In order to support m5ops in virtualized environments, we need to use a memory mapped interface. This changeset adds support for that by reserving 0xFFFF0000-0xFFFFFFFF and mapping those to the generic IPR interface for m5ops. The mapping is done in the X86ISA::TLB::finalizePhysical() which means that it just works for all of the CPU models, including virtualized ones.
2013-09-04arch: Resurrect the NOISA build target and rename it NULLAndreas Hansson
This patch makes it possible to once again build gem5 without any ISA. The main purpose is to enable work around the interconnect and memory system without having to build any CPU models or device models. The regress script is updated to include the NULL ISA target. Currently no regressions make use of it, but all the testers could (and perhaps should) transition to it. --HG-- rename : build_opts/NOISA => build_opts/NULL rename : src/arch/noisa/SConsopts => src/arch/null/SConsopts rename : src/arch/noisa/cpu_dummy.hh => src/arch/null/cpu_dummy.hh rename : src/cpu/intr_control.cc => src/cpu/intr_control_noisa.cc

2013-08-14arm: use -march when compiling m5op_arm.SAnthony Gutierrez
Using arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc 4.7.3-1ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 13.04 to compiled the m5 binary yields the error: m5op_arm.S: Assembler messages: m5op_arm.S:85: Error: selected processor does not support ARM mode `bxj lr' For each of of the SIMPLE_OPs. Apparently, this compiler doesn't like the interworking of these code types for the default arch. Adding -march=armv7-a makes it compile. Another alternative that I found to work is replacing the bxj lr instruction with mov pc, lr, but I don't know how that affects the KVM stuff and if bxj is needed.
2013-08-07x86: add tlb checkpointingNilay Vaish
This patch adds checkpointing support to x86 tlb. It upgrades the cpt_upgrader.py script so that previously created checkpoints can be updated. It moves the checkpoint version to 6.
2013-05-30util: Auto generate the packet proto definitionsAndreas Hansson
This patch simplifies the usage of the packet trace encoder/decoder by attempting to automatically generating the packet proto definitions in case they cannot be found.
