config: Add memcheck stress test
This is a rather unfortunate copy of the memtest.py example script, that actually stresses the system with true sharing as opposed to the false sharing of the MemTest. To do so it uses TrafficGen instances to generate the reads/writes, and MemCheckerMonitor combined with the MemChecker to check the validity of the read/written values. As a bonus, this script also enables the addition of prefetchers, and the traffic is created to have a mix of random addresses and linear strides. We use the TaggedPrefetcher since the packets do not have a request with a PC. At the moment the code is almost identical to the memtest.py script, and no effort has been made to factor out the construction of the tree. The challenge is that the instantiation and connection of the testers and monitors is done as part of the tree building.

# This example script has a lot in common with the memtest.py in that
|
||||
# it is designed to stress tests the memory system. However, this
|
||||
# script uses oblivious traffic generators to create the stimuli, and
|
||||
# couples them with memcheckers to verify that the data read matches
|
||||
# the allowed outcomes. Just like memtest.py, the traffic generators
|
||||
# and checkers are placed in a tree topology. At the bottom of the
|
||||
# tree is a shared memory, and then at each level a number of
|
||||
# generators and checkers are attached, along with a number of caches
|
||||
# that them selves fan out to subtrees of generators and caches. Thus,
|
||||
# it is possible to create a system with arbitrarily deep cache
|
||||
# hierarchies, sharing or no sharing of caches, and generators not
|
||||
# only at the L1s, but also at the L2s, L3s etc.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# The tree specification consists of two colon-separated lists of one
|
||||
# or more integers, one for the caches, and one for the
|
||||
# testers/generators. The first integer is the number of
|
||||
# caches/testers closest to main memory. Each cache then fans out to a
|
||||
# subtree. The last integer in the list is the number of
|
||||
# caches/testers associated with the uppermost level of memory. The
|
||||
# other integers (if any) specify the number of caches/testers
|
||||
# connected at each level of the crossbar hierarchy. The tester string
|
||||
# should have one element more than the cache string as there should
|
||||
# always be testers attached to the uppermost caches.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Since this script tests actual sharing, there is also a possibility
|
||||
# to stress prefetching and the interaction between prefetchers and
|
||||
# caches. The traffic generators switch between random address streams
|
||||
# and linear address streams to ensure that the prefetchers will
|
||||
# trigger. By default prefetchers are off.
