From 76b0ff9ecd8bd4818dff8a3cc811bee547b643b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Sandberg Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2014 05:49:40 -0400 Subject: cpu: Add branch predictor PMU probe points This changeset adds probe points that can be used to implement PMU counters for branch predictor stats. The following probes are supported: * BPRedUnit::ppBranches / Branches * BPRedUnit::ppMisses / Misses --- src/cpu/pred/bpred_unit_impl.hh | 20 ++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 20 insertions(+) (limited to 'src/cpu/pred/bpred_unit_impl.hh') diff --git a/src/cpu/pred/bpred_unit_impl.hh b/src/cpu/pred/bpred_unit_impl.hh index 53ec808b6..4d17bfd33 100644 --- a/src/cpu/pred/bpred_unit_impl.hh +++ b/src/cpu/pred/bpred_unit_impl.hh @@ -119,6 +119,22 @@ BPredUnit::regStats() ; } +ProbePoints::PMUUPtr +BPredUnit::pmuProbePoint(const char *name) +{ + ProbePoints::PMUUPtr ptr; + ptr.reset(new ProbePoints::PMU(getProbeManager(), name)); + + return ptr; +} + +void +BPredUnit::regProbePoints() +{ + ppBranches = pmuProbePoint("Branches"); + ppMisses = pmuProbePoint("Misses"); +} + void BPredUnit::drainSanityCheck() const { @@ -141,6 +157,7 @@ BPredUnit::predict(const StaticInstPtr &inst, const InstSeqNum &seqNum, TheISA::PCState target = pc; ++lookups; + ppBranches->notify(1); void *bp_history = NULL; @@ -259,6 +276,8 @@ BPredUnit::predictInOrder(const StaticInstPtr &inst, const InstSeqNum &seqNum, TheISA::PCState target; ++lookups; + ppBranches->notify(1); + DPRINTF(Branch, "[tid:%i] [sn:%i] %s ...
