Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with coherence protocols. Currently, whenever a cache controller (defined in the protocol under consideration) needs to carry out any operation on a cache block, it looks up the tag hash map and figures out whether or not the block exists in the cache. In case it does exist, the operation is carried out (which requires another lookup). As observed through profiling of different protocols, multiple such lookups take place for a given cache block. It was noted that the tag lookup takes anything from 10% to 20% of the simulation time. In order to reduce this time, this patch is being posted. I have to acknowledge that the many of the thoughts that went in to this patch belong to Brad. Changes to CacheMemory, TBETable and AbstractCacheEntry classes: 1. The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class. 2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class. 3. The allocate function in CacheMemory class now returns pointer to the allocated cache entry. Changes to SLICC: 1. Each action now has implicit variables - cache_entry and tbe. cache_entry, if != NULL, must point to the cache entry for the address on which the action is being carried out. Similarly, tbe should also point to the transaction buffer entry of the address on which the action is being carried out. 2. If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on. 3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function. 4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively. 5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively. 6. Local variables are now available, but they are assumed to be pointers always. 7. It is now possible for an object of the derieved class to make calls to a function defined in the interface. 8. An OOD token has been introduced in SLICC. It is same as the NULL token used in C/C++. If you are wondering, OOD stands for Out Of Domain. 9. static_cast can now taken an optional parameter that asks for casting the given variable to a pointer of the given type. 10. Functions can be annotated with 'return_by_pointer=yes' to return a pointer. 11. StateMachine has two new variables, EntryType and TBEType. EntryType is set to the type which inherits from 'AbstractCacheEntry'. There can only be one such type in the machine. TBEType is set to the type for which 'TBE' is used as the name. All the protocols have been modified to conform with the new interface.

Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with coherence protocols. Currently, whenever a cache controller (defined in the protocol under consideration) needs to carry out any operation on a cache block, it looks up the tag hash map and figures out whether or not the block exists in the cache. In case it does exist, the operation is carried out (which requires another lookup). As observed through profiling of different protocols, multiple such lookups take place for a given cache block. It was noted that the tag lookup takes anything from 10% to 20% of the simulation time. In order to reduce this time, this patch is being posted. I have to acknowledge that the many of the thoughts that went in to this patch belong to Brad. Changes to CacheMemory, TBETable and AbstractCacheEntry classes: 1. The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class. 2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class. 3. The allocate function in CacheMemory class now returns pointer to the allocated cache entry. Changes to SLICC: 1. Each action now has implicit variables - cache_entry and tbe. cache_entry, if != NULL, must point to the cache entry for the address on which the action is being carried out. Similarly, tbe should also point to the transaction buffer entry of the address on which the action is being carried out. 2. If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on. 3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function. 4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively. 5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively. 6. Local variables are now available, but they are assumed to be pointers always. 7. It is now possible for an object of the derieved class to make calls to a function defined in the interface. 8. An OOD token has been introduced in SLICC. It is same as the NULL token used in C/C++. If you are wondering, OOD stands for Out Of Domain. 9. static_cast can now taken an optional parameter that asks for casting the given variable to a pointer of the given type. 10. Functions can be annotated with 'return_by_pointer=yes' to return a pointer. 11. StateMachine has two new variables, EntryType and TBEType.

I have to acknowledge that the many of the thoughts that went in to this patch belong to Brad. Changes to CacheMemory, TBETable and AbstractCacheEntry classes: 1. The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class. 2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class. 3. The allocate function in CacheMemory class now returns pointer to the allocated cache entry. Changes to SLICC: 1. Each action now has implicit variables - cache_entry and tbe. cache_entry, if != NULL, must point to the cache entry for the address on which the action is being carried out. Similarly, tbe should also point to the transaction buffer entry of the address on which the action is being carried out. 2. If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on. 3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function. 4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively. 5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively. 6. Local variables are now available, but they are assumed to be pointers always. 7. It is now possible for an object of the derieved class to make calls to a function defined in the interface. 8. An OOD token has been introduced in SLICC. It is same as the NULL token used in C/C++. If you are wondering, OOD stands for Out Of Domain. 9. static_cast can now taken an optional parameter that asks for casting the given variable to a pointer of the given type. 10. Functions can be annotated with 'return_by_pointer=yes' to return a pointer. 11. StateMachine has two new variables, EntryType and TBEType. EntryType is set to the type which inherits from 'AbstractCacheEntry'. There can only be one such type in the machine. TBEType is set to the type for which 'TBE' is used as the name. All the protocols have been modified to conform with the new interface.

Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with coherence protocols.

Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with coherence protocols. Currently, whenever a cache controller (defined in the protocol under consideration) needs to carry out any operation on a cache block, it looks up the tag hash map and figures out whether or not the block exists in the cache. In case it does exist, the operation is carried out (which requires another lookup). As observed through profiling of different protocols, multiple such lookups take place for a given cache block. It was noted that the tag lookup takes anything from 10% to 20% of the simulation time. In order to reduce this time, this patch is being posted. I have to acknowledge that the many of the thoughts that went in to this patch belong to Brad. Changes to CacheMemory, TBETable and AbstractCacheEntry classes: 1. The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class. 2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class. 3. The allocate function in CacheMemory class now returns pointer to the allocated cache entry. Changes to SLICC: 1. Each action now has implicit variables - cache_entry and tbe. cache_entry, if != NULL, must point to the cache entry for the address on which the action is being carried out. Similarly, tbe should also point to the transaction buffer entry of the address on which the action is being carried out. 2. If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on. 3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function. 4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively. 5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively. 6. Local variables are now available, but they are assumed to be pointers always. 7. It is now possible for an object of the derieved class to make calls to a function defined in the interface. 8.

Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with coherence protocols. Currently, whenever a cache controller (defined in the protocol under consideration) needs to carry out any operation on a cache block, it looks up the tag hash map and figures out whether or not the block exists in the cache. In case it does exist, the operation is carried out (which requires another lookup). As observed through profiling of different protocols, multiple such lookups take place for a given cache block. It was noted that the tag lookup takes anything from 10% to 20% of the simulation time. In order to reduce this time, this patch is being posted. I have to acknowledge that the many of the thoughts that went in to this patch belong to Brad. Changes to CacheMemory, TBETable and AbstractCacheEntry classes: 1. The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class. 2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class. 3. The allocate function in CacheMemory class now returns pointer to the allocated cache entry. Changes to SLICC: 1. Each action now has implicit variables - cache_entry and tbe. cache_entry, if != NULL, must point to the cache entry for the address on which the action is being carried out. Similarly, tbe should also point to the transaction buffer entry of the address on which the action is being carried out. 2. If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on. 3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function. 4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively. 5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively. 6. Local variables are now available, but they are assumed to be pointers always. 7. It is now possible for an object of the derieved class to make calls to a function defined in the interface. 8.

Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with coherence protocols. Currently, whenever a cache controller (defined in the protocol under consideration) needs to carry out any operation on a cache block, it looks up the tag hash map and figures out whether or not the block exists in the cache. In case it does exist, the operation is carried out (which requires another lookup). As observed through profiling of different protocols, multiple such lookups take place for a given cache block. It was noted that the tag lookup takes anything from 10% to 20% of the simulation time. In order to reduce this time, this patch is being posted. I have to acknowledge that the many of the thoughts that went in to this patch belong to Brad. Changes to CacheMemory, TBETable and AbstractCacheEntry classes: 1. The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class. 2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class. 3. The allocate function in CacheMemory class now returns pointer to the allocated cache entry. Changes to SLICC: 1. Each action now has implicit variables - cache_entry and tbe. cache_entry, if != NULL, must point to the cache entry for the address on which the action is being carried out. Similarly, tbe should also point to the transaction buffer entry of the address on which the action is being carried out. 2. If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on. 3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function. 4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively. 5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively. 6.

Similarly, tbe should also point to the transaction buffer entry of the address on which the action is being carried out. 2. If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on. 3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function. 4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively. 5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively. 6. Local variables are now available, but they are assumed to be pointers always. 7. It is now possible for an object of the derieved class to make calls to a function defined in the interface. 8. An OOD token has been introduced in SLICC. It is same as the NULL token used in C/C++. If you are wondering, OOD stands for Out Of Domain. 9. static_cast can now taken an optional parameter that asks for casting the given variable to a pointer of the given type. 10. Functions can be annotated with 'return_by_pointer=yes' to return a pointer. 11. StateMachine has two new variables, EntryType and TBEType. EntryType is set to the type which inherits from 'AbstractCacheEntry'. There can only be one such type in the machine. TBEType is set to the type for which 'TBE' is used as the name. All the protocols have been modified to conform with the new interface.

Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with coherence protocols. Currently, whenever a cache controller (defined in the protocol under consideration) needs to carry out any operation on a cache block, it looks up the tag hash map and figures out whether or not the block exists in the cache. In case it does exist, the operation is carried out (which requires another lookup). As observed through profiling of different protocols, multiple such lookups take place for a given cache block. It was noted that the tag lookup takes anything from 10% to 20% of the simulation time. In order to reduce this time, this patch is being posted. I have to acknowledge that the many of the thoughts that went in to this patch belong to Brad. Changes to CacheMemory, TBETable and AbstractCacheEntry classes: 1. The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class. 2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class. 3.

The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class. 2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class. 3. The allocate function in CacheMemory class now returns pointer to the allocated cache entry. Changes to SLICC: 1. Each action now has implicit variables - cache_entry and tbe. cache_entry, if != NULL, must point to the cache entry for the address on which the action is being carried out. Similarly, tbe should also point to the transaction buffer entry of the address on which the action is being carried out. 2. If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on. 3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function. 4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively. 5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively. 6. Local variables are now available, but they are assumed to be pointers always. 7. It is now possible for an object of the derieved class to make calls to a function defined in the interface. 8. An OOD token has been introduced in SLICC. It is same as the NULL token used in C/C++. If you are wondering, OOD stands for Out Of Domain. 9. static_cast can now taken an optional parameter that asks for casting the given variable to a pointer of the given type. 10. Functions can be annotated with 'return_by_pointer=yes' to return a pointer. 11. StateMachine has two new variables, EntryType and TBEType. EntryType is set to the type which inherits from 'AbstractCacheEntry'. There can only be one such type in the machine. TBEType is set to the type for which 'TBE' is used as the name. All the protocols have been modified to conform with the new interface.

Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with coherence protocols. Currently, whenever a cache controller (defined in the protocol under consideration) needs to carry out any operation on a cache block, it looks up the tag hash map and figures out whether or not the block exists in the cache. In case it does exist, the operation is carried out (which requires another lookup). As observed through profiling of different protocols, multiple such lookups take place for a given cache block.

If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on. 3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function. 4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively. 5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively. 6. Local variables are now available, but they are assumed to be pointers always. 7. It is now possible for an object of the derieved class to make calls to a function defined in the interface. 8. An OOD token has been introduced in SLICC. It is same as the NULL token used in C/C++. If you are wondering, OOD stands for Out Of Domain. 9. static_cast can now taken an optional parameter that asks for casting the given variable to a pointer of the given type. 10. Functions can be annotated with 'return_by_pointer=yes' to return a pointer. 11. StateMachine has two new variables, EntryType and TBEType. EntryType is set to the type which inherits from 'AbstractCacheEntry'. There can only be one such type in the machine. TBEType is set to the type for which 'TBE' is used as the name. All the protocols have been modified to conform with the new interface.

Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with coherence protocols. Currently, whenever a cache controller (defined in the protocol under consideration) needs to carry out any operation on a cache block, it looks up the tag hash map and figures out whether or not the block exists in the cache. In case it does exist, the operation is carried out (which requires another lookup). As observed through profiling of different protocols, multiple such lookups take place for a given cache block. It was noted that the tag lookup takes anything from 10% to 20% of the simulation time. In order to reduce this time, this patch is being posted. I have to acknowledge that the many of the thoughts that went in to this patch belong to Brad. Changes to CacheMemory, TBETable and AbstractCacheEntry classes: 1. The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class. 2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class. 3. The allocate function in CacheMemory class now returns pointer to the allocated cache entry. Changes to SLICC: 1. Each action now has implicit variables - cache_entry and tbe. cache_entry, if != NULL, must point to the cache entry for the address on which the action is being carried out.
