From 1530e1a690a7d3c1b028e59d2fa37c88df8e47df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Erfan Azarkhish Date: Tue, 3 Nov 2015 12:17:56 -0600 Subject: mem: hmc: adds controller This patch models a simple HMC Controller. It simply schedules the incoming packets to HMC Serial Links using a round robin mechanism. This patch should be applied in series with other patches modeling a complete HMC device.

Moreover, this component should have large internal +# queueing to hide the access latency of the HMC. +# Plus, this controller can implement more advanced global scheduling policies +# and can reorder and steer transactions if required. A good example of such +# component is available in [1]. +# Also in [2] there is a similar component which is connected to all serial +# links, and it schedules the requests to the ones which are not busy. +# These two references clarify two things: +# 1. The serial links support the same address range and packets can travel +# over any of them. +# 2. One host can be connected to more than 1 serial link simply to achieve +# higher bandwidth, and not for any other reason. + +# In this model, we have used a round-robin counter, because it is the +# simplest way to schedule packets over the non-busy serial links. However, +# more advanced scheduling algorithms are possible and even host can dedicate +# each serial link to a portion of the address space and interleave packets +# over them. Yet in this model, we have not made any such assumptions on the +# address space. + +class HMCController(NoncoherentXBar): + type = 'HMCController' + cxx_header = "mem/hmc_controller.hh" diff --git a/src/mem/SConscript b/src/mem/SConscript index 404f4a90f..3b65131a2 100644 --- a/src/mem/SConscript +++ b/src/mem/SConscript @@ -42,6 +42,7 @@ SimObject('ExternalSlave.py') SimObject('MemObject.py') SimObject('SimpleMemory.py') SimObject('XBar.py') +SimObject('HMCController.py') Source('abstract_mem.cc') Source('addr_mapper.cc') @@ -64,6 +65,7 @@ Source('snoop_filter.cc') Source('stack_dist_calc.cc') Source('tport.cc') Source('xbar.cc') +Source('hmc_controller.cc') if env['TARGET_ISA'] != 'null': Source('fs_translating_port_proxy.cc') @@ -101,6 +103,7 @@ DebugFlag('MemoryAccess') DebugFlag('PacketQueue') DebugFlag('StackDist') DebugFlag("DRAMSim2") +DebugFlag('HMCController') DebugFlag("MemChecker") DebugFlag("MemCheckerMonitor") diff --git a/src/mem/hmc_controller.cc b/src/mem/hmc_controller.cc new file mode 100644 index 000000000..c6fd36206 --- /dev/null +++ b/src/mem/hmc_controller.cc @@ -0,0 +1,120 @@ +#include "base/random.hh" +#include "debug/HMCController.hh" +#include "mem/hmc_controller.hh" + +HMCController::HMCController(const HMCControllerParams* p) : + NoncoherentXBar(p), + n_master_ports(p->port_master_connection_count), + rr_counter(0) +{ + assert(p->port_slave_connection_count == 1); +} + +HMCController* +HMCControllerParams::create() +{ + return new HMCController(this); +} + +// Since this module is a load distributor, all its master ports have the same +// range so we should keep only one of the ranges and ignore the others +void HMCController::recvRangeChange(PortID master_port_id) +{ + if (master_port_id == 0) + { + gotAllAddrRanges = true; + BaseXBar::recvRangeChange(master_port_id); + } + else + gotAddrRanges[master_port_id] = true; +} + +int HMCController::rotate_counter() +{ + int current_value = rr_counter; + rr_counter++; + if (rr_counter == n_master_ports) + rr_counter = 0; + return current_value; +} + +bool HMCController::recvTimingReq(PacketPtr pkt, PortID slave_port_id) +{ + // determine the source port based on the id + SlavePort *src_port = slavePorts[slave_port_id]; + + // we should never see express snoops on a non-coherent component + assert(!pkt->isExpressSnoop()); + + // For now, this is a simple round robin counter, for distribution the + // load among the serial links + PortID master_port_id = rotate_counter(); + + // test if the layer should be considered occupied for the current + // port + if (!reqLayers[master_port_id]->tryTiming(src_port)) { + DPRINTF(HMCController, "recvTimingReq: src %s %s 0x%x BUSY\n", + src_port->name(), pkt->cmdString(), pkt->getAddr()); + return false; + } + + DPRINTF(HMCController, "recvTimingReq: src %s %s 0x%x\n", + src_port->name(), pkt->cmdString(), pkt->getAddr()); + + // store size and command as they might be modified when + // forwarding the packet + unsigned int pkt_size = pkt->hasData() ?
