Brandon Potter a928a438b8 style: [patch 3/22] reduce include dependencies in some headers
Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This

Andreas Sandberg 8c5df4be2e dev, arm: Make GenericTimer param handling more robust
The generic timer needs a pointer to an ArmSystem to wire itself to the
system register handler. This was previously specified as an instance
of System that was later cast to ArmSystem. Make this more robust by
specifying it as an ArmSystem in the Python interface and add a check
to make sure that it is non-NULL.

Andreas Sandberg 5383e1ada4 base: Add support for changing output directories
This changeset adds support for changing the simulator output
directory. This can be useful when the simulation goes through several
stages (e.g., a warming phase, a simulation phase, and a verification
phase) since it allows the output from each stage to be located in a
different directory. Relocation is done by calling core.setOutputDir()
from Python or simout.setOutputDirectory() from C++.

This change affects several parts of the design of the gem5's output
subsystem. First, files returned by an OutputDirectory instance (e.g.,
simout) are of the type OutputStream instead of a std::ostream. This
allows us to do some more book keeping and control re-opening of files
when the output directory is changed. Second, new subdirectories are
OutputDirectory instances, which should be used to create files in
that sub-directory.

Andreas Sandberg 6d058a63b0 dev, arm: Add support for automatic PCI interrupt routing
Add support for automatic PCI interrupt routing using a device's ID on
the PCI bus. Our current DTBs typically tell the kernel that we do
this or something similar when declaring the PCI controller. This
changeset adds an option to make the simulator behave in the same way.

Interrupt routing can be selected by setting the int_policy parameter
in the GenericArmPciHost. The following values are supported:

  * ARM_PCI_INT_STATIC: Use the old static routing policy using the
    interrupt line from a device's configurtion space.

  * ARM_PCI_INT_DEV: Use device number on the PCI bus to map to an
    interrupt in the GIC. The interrupt is computed as:

    gic_int = int_base + (pci_dev % int_count)

  * ARM_PCI_INT_PIN: Use device interrupt pin on the PCI bus to map to
    an interrupt in the GIC. The PCI specification reserves pin ID 0
    for devices without interrupts, the interrupt therefore computed
    as:

    gic_int = int_base + ((pin - 1) % int_count)

Previous ARM-based simulations were limited to 8 cores due to
limitations in GICv2 and earlier. This changeset adds a set of
gem5-specific extensions that enable support for up to 256 cores.

a CPU bitmask in the GIC's register interface. To OS can enable the
extensions by setting bit 0x200 in ICDICTR.

This changeset is based on previous work by Matt Evans.

Andreas Sandberg 78275c9d2f dev: Rewrite PCI host functionality
The gem5's current PCI host functionality is very ad hoc. The current
implementations require PCI devices to be hooked up to the
configuration space via a separate configuration port. Devices query
the platform to get their config-space address range. Un-mapped parts
of the config space are intercepted using the XBar's default port
mechanism and a magic catch-all device (PciConfigAll).

This changeset redesigns the PCI host functionality to improve code
reuse and make config-space and interrupt mapping more
transparent. Existing platform code has been updated to use the new
PCI host and configured to stay backwards compatible (i.e., no
guest-side visible changes). The current implementation does not
expose any new functionality, but it can easily be extended with
features such as automatic interrupt mapping.

PCI devices now register themselves with a PCI host controller. The
host controller interface is defined in the abstract base class
PciHost. Registration is done by PciHost::registerDevice() which takes
the device, its bus position (bus/dev/func tuple), and its interrupt
pin (INTA-INTC) as a parameter. The registration interface returns a
PciHost::DeviceInterface that the PCI device can use to query memory
mappings and signal interrupts.

The host device manages the entire PCI configuration space. Accesses
to devices decoded into the devices bus position and then forwarded to
the correct device.

Basic PCI host functionality is implemented in the GenericPciHost base
class. Most platforms can use this class as a basic PCI controller. It
provides the following functionality:

  * Configurable configuration space decoding. The number of bits
    dedicated to a device is a prameter, making it possible to support
    both CAM, ECAM, and legacy mappings.

  * Basic interrupt mapping using the interruptLine value from a
    device's configuration space. This behavior is the same as in the
    old implementation. More advanced controllers can override the
    interrupt mapping method to dynamically assign host interrupts to
    PCI devices.

  * Simple (base + addr) remapping from the PCI bus's address space to
    physical addresses for PIO, memory, and DMA.

   * The pixel clock can now be set dynamically.

This breaks checkpoint compatibility. Checkpoints can be upgraded with
the checkpoint conversion script. However, upgraded checkpoints won't
contain the state of the current frame. That means that HDLCD
controllers restoring from a converted checkpoint immediately start
drawing a new frame (i.e, expect timing differences).

Andreas Sandberg ed38e3432c sim: Refactor and simplify the drain API
The drain() call currently passes around a DrainManager pointer, which
is now completely pointless since there is only ever one global
DrainManager in the system. It also contains vestiges from the time
when SimObjects had to keep track of their child objects that needed
draining.

This changeset moves all of the DrainState handling to the Drainable
base class and changes the drain() and drainResume() calls to reflect
this. Particularly, the drain() call has been updated to take no
parameters (the DrainManager argument isn't needed) and return a
DrainState instead of an unsigned integer (there is no point returning
anything other than 0 or 1 any more). Drainable objects should return
either DrainState::Draining (equivalent to returning 1 in the old
system) if they need more time to drain or DrainState::Drained
(equivalent to returning 0 in the old system) if they are already in a
consistent state. Returning DrainState::Running is considered an
error.

Drain done signalling is now done through the signalDrainDone() method
in the Drainable class instead of using the DrainManager directly. The
new call checks if the state of the object is DrainState::Draining
before notifying the drain manager. This means that it is safe to call
signalDrainDone() without first checking if the simulator has
requested draining. The intention here is to reduce the code needed to
implement draining in simple objects.
2015-07-07 09:51:05 +01:00
Andreas Sandberg f16c0a4a90 sim: Decouple draining from the SimObject hierarchy
Draining is currently done by traversing the SimObject graph and
calling drain()/drainResume() on the SimObjects. This is not ideal
when non-SimObjects (e.g., ports) need draining since this means that
SimObjects owning those objects need to be aware of this.

This changeset moves the responsibility for finding objects that need
draining from SimObjects and the Python-side of the simulator to the
DrainManager. The DrainManager now maintains a set of all objects that
need draining. To reduce the overhead in classes owning non-SimObjects
that need draining, objects inheriting from Drainable now
automatically register with the DrainManager. If such an object is
destroyed, it is automatically unregistered. This means that drain()
and drainResume() should never be called directly on a Drainable
object.

While implementing the new functionality, the DrainManager has now
been made thread safe. In practice, this means that it takes a lock
whenever it manipulates the set of Drainable objects since SimObjects
in different threads may create Drainable objects
dynamically. Similarly, the drain counter is now an atomic_uint, which
ensures that it is manipulated correctly when objects signal that they
are done draining.

A nice side effect of these changes is that it makes the drain state
changes stricter, which the simulation scripts can exploit to avoid
redundant drains.

Andreas Sandberg e9c3d59aae sim: Make the drain state a global typed enum

Andreas Sandberg 76cd4393c0 sim: Refactor the serialization base class
Objects that are can be serialized are supposed to inherit from the
Serializable class. This class is meant to provide a unified API for
such objects. However, so far it has mainly been used by SimObjects
due to some fundamental design limitations. This changeset redesigns
to the serialization interface to make it more generic and hide the
underlying checkpoint storage. Specifically:

  * Add a set of APIs to serialize into a subsection of the current
    object. Previously, objects that needed this functionality would
    use ad-hoc solutions using nameOut() and section name
    generation. In the new world, an object that implements the
    interface has the methods serializeSection() and
    unserializeSection() that serialize into a named /subsection/ of
    the current object. Calling serialize() serializes an object into
    the current section.

  * Move the name() method from Serializable to SimObject as it is no
    longer needed for serialization. The fully qualified section name
    is generated by the main serialization code on the fly as objects
    serialize sub-objects.

  * Add a scoped ScopedCheckpointSection helper class. Some objects
    need to serialize data structures, that are not deriving from
    Serializable, into subsections. Previously, this was done using
    nameOut() and manual section name generation. To simplify this,
    this changeset introduces a ScopedCheckpointSection() helper
    class. When this class is instantiated, it adds a new /subsection/
    and subsequent serialization calls during the lifetime of this
    helper class happen inside this section (or a subsection in case
    of nested sections).

  * The serialize() call is now const which prevents accidental state
    manipulation during serialization. Objects that rely on modifying
    state can use the serializeOld() call instead. The default
    implementation simply calls serialize(). Note: The old-style calls
    need to be explicitly called using the
    serializeOld()/serializeSectionOld() style APIs. These are used by
    default when serializing SimObjects.

  * Both the input and output checkpoints now use their own named
    types. This hides underlying checkpoint implementation from
    objects that need checkpointing and makes it easier to change the
    underlying checkpoint storage code.

Andreas Sandberg f3f06e1684 arm, dev: Add support for a memory mapped generic timer
There are cases when we don't want to use a system register mapped
generic timer, but can't use the SP804. For example, when using KVM on
aarch64, we want to intercept accesses to the generic timer, but can't
do so if it is using the system register interface. In such cases,
we need to use a memory-mapped generic timer.

This changeset adds a device model that implements the memory mapped
generic timer interface. The current implementation only supports a
single frame (i.e., one virtual timer and one physical timer).

Andreas Sandberg 2278fec1d1 dev, arm: Add virtual timers to the generic timer model
The generic timer model currently does not support virtual
counters. Virtual and physical counters both tick with the same
frequency. However, virtual timers allow a hypervisor to set an offset
that is subtracted from the counter when it is read. This enables the
hypervisor to present a time base that ticks with virtual time in the
VM (i.e., doesn't tick when the VM isn't running). Modern Linux
kernels generally assume that virtual counters exist and try to use
them by default.

Andreas Sandberg 65f3f097d3 dev, arm: Refactor and clean up the generic timer model
This changeset cleans up the generic timer a bit and moves most of the
register juggling from the ISA code into a separate class in the same
source file as the rest of the generic timer. It also removes the
assumption that there is always 8 or fewer CPUs in the system. Instead
of having a fixed limit, we now instantiate per-core timers as they
are requested. This is all in preparation for other patches that add
support for virtual timers and a memory mapped interface.

Andreas Sandberg cba3a125e1 arm: Workaround incorrect HDLCD register order in kernel
Some versions of the kernel incorrectly swap the red and blue color
select registers. This changeset adds a workaround for that by
swapping them when instantiating a PixelConverter.
