From 322b9ca2c5b0465db7086abdc6eadca061932575 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lisa Hsu Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2011 17:17:57 -0700 Subject: Ruby: Add new object called WireBuffer to mimic a Wire. This is a substitute for MessageBuffers between controllers where you don't want messages to actually go through the Network, because requests/responses can always get reordered wrt to one another (even if you turn off Randomization and turn on Ordered) because you are, after all, going through a network with contention. For systems where you model multiple controllers that are very tightly coupled and do not actually go through a network, it is a pain to have to write a coherence protocol to account for mixed up request/response orderings despite the fact that it's completely unrealistic. This is *not* meant as a substitute for real MessageBuffers when messages do in fact go over a network. --- src/mem/ruby/SConscript | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'src/mem/ruby/SConscript') diff --git a/src/mem/ruby/SConscript b/src/mem/ruby/SConscript index 4d8c82cf8..3c9c02fe2 100644 --- a/src/mem/ruby/SConscript +++ b/src/mem/ruby/SConscript @@ -107,6 +107,7 @@ MakeInclude('system/DMASequencer.hh') MakeInclude('system/DirectoryMemory.hh') MakeInclude('system/MachineID.hh') MakeInclude('system/MemoryControl.hh') +MakeInclude('system/WireBuffer.hh') MakeInclude('system/NodeID.hh') MakeInclude('system/PerfectCacheMemory.hh') MakeInclude('system/PersistentTable.hh') -- cgit v1.2.3
