From 4d77ea7a5783d1de87a8eb804b17a6ef352998ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steve Reinhardt Date: Tue, 23 Mar 2010 08:50:57 -0700 Subject: cpu: fix exec tracing memory corruption bug Accessing traceData (to call setAddress() and/or setData()) after initiating a timing translation was causing crashes, since a failed translation could delete the traceData object before returning. It turns out that there was never a need to access traceData after initiating the translation, as the traced data was always available earlier; this ordering was merely historical. Furthermore, traceData->setAddress() and traceData->setData() were being called both from the CPU model and the ISA definition, often redundantly. This patch standardizes all setAddress and setData calls for memory instructions to be in the CPU models and not in the ISA definition. It also moves those calls above the translation calls to eliminate the crashes. --- src/cpu/simple/timing.cc | 22 ++++++++++------------ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/cpu/simple/timing.cc') diff --git a/src/cpu/simple/timing.cc b/src/cpu/simple/timing.cc index 221cb0d0d..7583c09e6 100644 --- a/src/cpu/simple/timing.cc +++ b/src/cpu/simple/timing.cc @@ -426,6 +426,10 @@ TimingSimpleCPU::read(Addr addr, T &data, unsigned flags) int data_size = sizeof(T); BaseTLB::Mode mode = BaseTLB::Read; + if (traceData) { + traceData->setAddr(addr); + } + RequestPtr req = new Request(asid, addr, data_size, flags, pc, _cpuId, tid); @@ -460,11 +464,6 @@ TimingSimpleCPU::read(Addr addr, T &data, unsigned flags) thread->dtb->translateTiming(req, tc, translation, mode); } - if (traceData) { - traceData->setData(data); - traceData->setAddr(addr); - } - return NoFault; } @@ -548,6 +547,11 @@ TimingSimpleCPU::write(T data, Addr addr, unsigned flags, uint64_t *res) int data_size = sizeof(T); BaseTLB::Mode mode = BaseTLB::Write; + if (traceData) { + traceData->setAddr(addr); + traceData->setData(data); + } + RequestPtr req = new Request(asid, addr, data_size, flags, pc, _cpuId, tid); @@ -584,13 +588,7 @@ TimingSimpleCPU::write(T data, Addr addr, unsigned flags, uint64_t *res) thread->dtb->translateTiming(req, tc, translation, mode); } - if (traceData) { - traceData->setAddr(req->getVaddr()); - traceData->setData(data); - } - - // If the write needs to have a fault on the access, consider calling - // changeStatus() and changing it to "bad addr write" or something. + // Translation faults will be returned via finishTranslation() return NoFault; } -- cgit v1.2.3
