This patch unifies the recvFunctional, recvAtomic and recvTiming to
all be based on a similar structure: 1) extract information about the
incoming packet, 2) send it out to the appropriate snoopers, 3)
determine where it is going, and 4) forward it to the right
destination. The naming of variables across the different access
functions is now consistent as well.
Additionally, the patch introduces the member functions releaseBus and
retryWaiting to better distinguish between the two cases when we
should tell a sender to retry. The first case is when the bus goes
from busy to idle, and the second case is when it receives a retry
from a destination that did not immediatelly accept a packet.
As a very minor change, the MMU debug flag is no longer used in the bus.
This patch decouples the queueing and the port interactions to
simplify the introduction of the master and slave ports. By separating
the queueing functionality from the port itself, it becomes much
easier to distinguish between master and slave ports, and still retain
the queueing ability for both (without code duplication).
As part of the split into a PacketQueue and a port, there is now also
a hierarchy of two port classes, QueuedPort and SimpleTimingPort. The
QueuedPort is useful for ports that want to leave the packet
transmission of outgoing packets to the queue and is used by both
master and slave ports. The SimpleTimingPort inherits from the
QueuedPort and adds the implemention of recvTiming and recvFunctional
through recvAtomic.
The PioPort and MessagePort are cleaned up as part of the changes.

This patch removes the overriding of "-Werror" in a handful of
cases. The code compiles with gcc 4.6.3 and clang 3.0 without any
warnings, and thus without any errors. There are no functional changes
introduced by this patch. In the future, rather than ypassing
"-Werror", address the warnings.
This patch cleans up a number of minor issues aiming to get closer to
compliance with the C++0x standard as interpreted by gcc and clang
(compile with std=c++0x and -pedantic-errors). In particular, the
patch cleans up enums where the last item was succeded by a comma,
namespaces closed by a curcly brace followed by a semi-colon, and the
use of the GNU-extension typeof (replaced by templated functions). It
does not address variable-length arrays, zero-size arrays, anonymous
structs, range expressions in switch statements, and the use of long
long. The generated CPU code also has a large number of issues that
remain to be fixed, mainly related to overflows in implicit constant
conversion (due to shifts).
This patch makes the code compile with clang 2.9 and 3.0 again by
making two very minor changes. Firt, it maintains a strict typing in
the forward declaration of the BaseCPUParams. Second, it adds a
FullSystemInt flag of the type unsigned int next to the boolean
FullSystem flag. The FullSystemInt variable can be used in
decode-statements (expands to switch statements) in the instruction
decoder.
Making the CheckerCPU a runtime time option requires the code to be compatible
with ISAs other than ARM. This patch adds the appropriate function
stubs to allow compilation.
Enables the CheckerCPU to be selected at runtime with the --checker option
from the configs/example/fs.py and configs/example/se.py configuration
files. Also merges with the SE/FS changes.
The change to port proxies recently moved code out of the constructor into
initState(). This is needed for code that loads data into memory, however
for code that setups symbol tables, kernel based events, etc this is the wrong
thing to do as that code is only called when a checkpoint isn't being restored
from.
1. --implicit-cache behavior is default.
2. makeEnv in src/SConscript is conditionally called.
3. decider set to MD5-timestamp
4. NO_HTML build option changed to SLICC_HTML (defaults to False)
This patch adds a creation-time check to the CPU to ensure that the
interrupt controller is created for the cases where it is needed,
i.e. if the CPU is not being switched in later and not a checker CPU.
The patch also adds the "createInterruptController" call to a number
of the regression scripts.
This patch renames the sendTiming member function in the RubyPort to
avoid inadvertently hiding Port::sendTiming (discovered through some
rather painful debugging). The RubyPort does, in fact, rely on the
functionality of the queued port and the implementation merely
schedules a send the next cycle. The new name for the member function
is sendNextCycle to better reflect this behaviour.
In the unlikely event that we ever shift to using C++11 the member
functions in Port should have a "final" identifier to prevent any
overriding in derived classes.
This change implements a PL031 real time clock.

New kernels attempt to read CP14 what debug architecture is available.
These changes add the debug registers and return that none is currently
available.
The block is never inserted because it's the one extra block in the cache, but
it can be invalidated twice in a row. In that case the block doesn't have a
new master id (beacuse it was never inserted), however it is valid and
the accounting goes wrong at that point.
With the recent series of patches, the symbol table loading moved from
"construct" time to "init" time, but the kernel function event
callback registration was left behind. This patch moves it to the
proper location.
Add extra declarations to allow the compiler to pick up the right function.
Please note that these declarations have been added as part of the
clang-related changes.
This patch adds a function to X86 tlb that returns the
walker port. This port is required for correctly connecting
the walker ports for the cpu just switched in
This is a trivial patch that merely makes all the member functions of
the port proxies const. There is no good reason why they should not
be, and this change only serves to make it explicit that they are not
modified through their use.
This patch fixes a compilation error that occurs with gcc >= 4.6.1,
caused by swig not including cstddef and not using the std:: namespace
prefix for ptrdiff_t. There is an old patch,
http://reviews.m5sim.org/r/913/ that no longer applies cleanly and
this might be re-iterating the same issue.
We work around the problem by always enforcing the inclusion of
cstddef in all swig interface declarations, and also by explicitly
using std::ptrdiff_t.
If an instruction is executed speculatively and hits a situation where it
wants to panic, it should return a fault instead. If the instruction was
misspeculated, the fault can be thrown away. If the instruction wasn't
misspeculated, the fault will be invoked and the panic will still happen.
This patch splits the two cache ports into a master (memory-side) and
slave (cpu-side) subclass of port with slightly different
functionality. For example, it is only the CPU-side port that blocks
incoming requests, and only the memory-side port that schedules send
events outside of what the transmit list dictates.
This patch simplifies the two classes by relying further on
SimpleTimingPort and also generalises the latter to better accommodate
the changes (introducing trySendTiming and scheduleSend). The
memory-side cache port overrides sendDeferredPacket to be able to not
only send responses from the transmit list, but also send requests
based on the MSHRs.
A follow on patch further simplifies the SimpleTimingPort and the
cache ports.
This patch simplifies the mport in preparation for a split into a
master and slave role for the message ports. In particular,
sendMessageAtomic was only used in a single location and similarly so
sendMessageTiming. The affected interrupt device is updated
accordingly.
This patch simplfies the master ports used by RubyDirectedTester and
RubyTester by avoiding the use of SimpleTimingPort. Neither tester
made any use of the functionality offered by SimpleTimingPort besides
a trivial implementation of recvFunctional (only snoops) and
recvRangeChange (not relevant since there is only one master).
The patch does not change or add any functionality, it merely makes
the introduction of a master/slave port easier (in a future patch).
This patch moves the readBlob/writeBlob/memsetBlob from the Port class
to the PortProxy class, thus making a clear separation of the basic
port functionality (recv/send functional/atomic/timing), and the
higher-level functional accessors available on the port proxies.
There are only a few places in the code base where the blob functions
were used on ports, and they are all for peeking into the memory
system without making a normal memory access (in the memtest, and the
malta and tsunami pchip). The memtest also exemplifies how easy it is
to create a non-translating proxy if desired. The malta and tsunami
pchip used a slave port to perform a functional read, and this is now
changed to rely on the physProxy of the system (to which they already
have a pointer).
This patch is adding a clearer design intent to all objects that would
not be complete without a port proxy by making the proxies members
rathen than dynamically allocated. In essence, if NULL would not be a
valid value for the proxy, then we avoid using a pointer to make this
clear.
The same approach is used for the methods using these proxies, such as
loadSections, that now use references rather than pointers to better
reflect the fact that NULL would not be an acceptable value (in fact
the code would break and that is how this patch started out).
Overall the concept of "using a reference to express unconditional
composition where a NULL pointer is never valid" could be done on a
much broader scale throughout the code base, but for now it is only
done in the locations affected by the proxies.
This patch moves all port creation from the getPort method to be
consistently done in the MemObject's constructor. This is possible
thanks to the Swig interface passing the length of the vector ports.
Previously there was a mix of: 1) creating the ports as members (at
object construction time) and using getPort for the name resolution,
or 2) dynamically creating the ports in the getPort call. This is now
uniform. Furthermore, objects that would not be complete without a
port have these ports as members rather than having pointers to
dynamically allocated ports.
This patch also enables an elaboration-time enumeration of all the
ports in the system which can be used to determine the masterId.
This patch continues the unification of how the different CPU models
create and share their instruction and data ports. Most importantly,
it forces every CPU to have an instruction and a data port, and gives
these ports explicit getters in the BaseCPU (getDataPort and
getInstPort). The patch helps in simplifying the code, make
assumptions more explicit, andfurther ease future patches related to
the CPU ports.
The biggest changes are in the in-order model (that was not modified
in the previous unification patch), which now moves the ports from the
CacheUnit to the CPU. It also distinguishes the instruction fetch and
load-store unit from the rest of the resources, and avoids the use of
indices and casting in favour of keeping track of these two units
explicitly (since they are always there anyways). The atomic, timing
and O3 model simply return references to their already existing ports.
This patch adds a check in the findPort method to ensure that an
invalid port id is never returned. Previously this could happen if no
default port was set, and no address matched the request, in which
case -1 was returned causing a SEGFAULT when using the id to index in
the port array. To clean things up further a symbolic name is added
for the invalid port id.
Without this patch, undefined params cause a cryptic KeyError
in multidict inside get_config_as_dict(). This patch lets
undefined params through get_config_as_dict() so they can
once again generate meaningful error messages later on in
the configuration process.
This patch cleans up a number of remaining uses of bus.port which
is now split into bus.master and bus.slave. The only non-trivial change
is the memtest where the level building now has to be aware of the role
of the ports used in the previous level.
1. Updates the Branch Predictor correctly to the state
just after a mispredicted branch, if a squash occurs.
2. If a BTB does not find an entry, the branch is predicted not taken.
The global history is modified to correctly reflect this prediction.
3. Local history is now updated at the fetch stage instead of
execute stage.
4. In the Update stage of the branch predictor the local predictors are
now correctly updated according to the state of local history during
fetch stage.
This patch also improves performance by as much as 17% on some benchmarks
The copy-engine ports were previously created implicitly and bound
based on the dma port peer rather than relying on the normal Python
binding (connectPorts) being called explicitly. This patch makes the
copy engine port similar to all other ports in that they are visibly
in the Python class and bound using the normal explicit calls through
Python.
This patch adds basic information about the ports in the parameter
classes to be passed from the Python world to the corresponding C++
object. Currently, the only information passed is the number of
connected peers, which for a Port is either 0 or 1, and for a
VectorPort reflects the size of the VectorPort. The default port of
the bus had to be renamed to avoid using the name "default" as a field
in the parameter class. It is possible to extend the Swig'ed
information further and add e.g. a pair with a description and size.
This patch classifies all ports in Python as either Master or Slave
and enforces a binding of master to slave. Conceptually, a master (such
as a CPU or DMA port) issues requests, and receives responses, and
conversely, a slave (such as a memory or a PIO device) receives
requests and sends back responses. Currently there is no
differentiation between coherent and non-coherent masters and slaves.
The classification as master/slave also involves splitting the dual
role port of the bus into a master and slave port and updating all the
system assembly scripts to use the appropriate port. Similarly, the
interrupt devices have to have their int_port split into a master and
slave port. The intdev and its children have minimal changes to
facilitate the extra port.
Note that this patch does not enforce any port typing in the C++
world, it merely ensures that the Python objects have a notion of the
port roles and are connected in an appropriate manner. This check is
carried when two ports are connected, e.g. bus.master =
memory.port. The following patches will make use of the
classifications and specialise the C++ ports into masters and slaves.
This patch fixes the cache stats to use the new request ids.
Cache stats also display the requestor names in the vector subnames.
Most cache stats now include "nozero" and "nonan" flags to reduce the
amount of excessive cache stat dump. Also, simplified
incMissCount()/incHitCount() functions.
This change adds a master id to each request object which can be
used identify every device in the system that is capable of issuing a request.
This is part of the way to removing the numCpus+1 stats in the cache and
replacing them with the master ids. This is one of a series of changes
that make way for the stats output to be changed to python.
This patch removes the calls to isTagPresent() from Sequencer.cc. These
calls are made just for setting the cache block to have been most recently
used. The calls have been folded in to the function setMRU().
This patch adds support for stalling the requests queued up at different
controllers for the MESI CMP directory protocol. Earlier the controllers
would recycle the requests using some fixed latency. This results in
younger requests getting serviced first at times, and can result in
starvation. Instead all the requests that need a particular block to be
in a stable state are moved to a separate queue, where they wait till
that block returns to a stable state and then they are processed.
The delayed commit flag is used in conjunction with interrupt pending flag to
figure out whether or not fetch stage should get more instructions. This patch
clears this flag when instructions are squashed. Also, in case an interrupt is
pending, currently it is not possible to access the instruction cache. This
patch allows accessing the cache in case this flag is set.
The condition for handling interrupts is to check whether or not the cpu's
instruction list is empty. As observed, this can lead to cases in which even
though the instruction list is empty, interrupts are handled when they should
not be. The condition is being strengthened so that interrupts get handled only
when the last committed microop did not had IsDelayedCommit set.
This patch adds a function to the ROB that will get the squashing instruction
from the ROB's list of instructions. This squashing instruction is used for
figuring out the macroop from which the fetch stage should fetch the microops.
Further, a check has been added that if the instructions are to be fetched
from the cache maintained by the fetch stage, then the data in the cache should
be valid and the PC of the thread being fetched from is same as the address of
the cache block.
This pointer was only being stored in code that came from SE mode. The system
pointer is always meaningful and available, so it should always be stored.
This patch removes the onRetryList field from the BusPort class and
entirely relies on the retryList which holds all ports that are
waiting to retry. The onRetryList field and the retryList were
previously used with overloaded functionalities and only one is really
needed (there were also checks to assert they held the same
information). After this patch the bus ports will be split into master
and slave ports and this simplifies that transition.
Because there are no longer architecture independent but specialized functions
in arch/XXX/faults.hh, code that isn't using the faults from a particular ISA
no longer needs to be able to include them through the switching header file
arch/faults.hh. By removing that header file (arch/faults.hh), the potential
interface between ISA code and non ISA code is narrowed.
The code that checks whether pages allocated by allocPhysPages only checks
that the first page fits into physical memory, not that all of them do. This
change makes the code check the last page which should work properly. This
function used to only allocate one page at a time, so the first page and last
page used to be the same thing.
This patch adds the necessary flags to the SConstruct and SConscript
files for compiling using clang 2.9 and later (on Ubuntu et al and OSX
XCode 4.2), and also cleans up a bunch of compiler warnings found by
clang. Most of the warnings are related to hidden virtual functions,
comparisons with unsigneds >= 0, and if-statements with empty
bodies. A number of mismatches between struct and class are also
fixed. clang 2.8 is not working as it has problems with class names
that occur in multiple namespaces (e.g. Statistics in
kernel_stats.hh).
clang has a bug (http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=7247) which
causes confusion between the container std::set and the function
Packet::set, and this is currently addressed by not including the
entire namespace std, but rather selecting e.g. "using std::vector" in
the appropriate places.
This patch is a very straight-forward simplification, removing the
unecessary otherPort pointer from the cache port. The pointer was only
used to forward range changes, and the address range is fixed for the
cache. Removing the pointer simplifies the transition to master/slave
ports.
This patch is a trivial simplification, removing the cpu pointer from
SimpleThread and relying on the baseCpu pointer in ThreadState. The
patch does not add or change any functionality, it merely cleans up
the code.
Usage: m5 writefile <filename>
File will be created in the gem5 output folder with the identical filename.

Brings the CheckerCPU back to life to allow FS and SE checking of the
O3CPU. These changes have only been tested with the ARM ISA. Other
ISAs potentially require modification.
This patch makes the physMemPort of the RubyPort a PioPort rather than
an M5Port. This reflects the fact that the M5Port and PioPort have
different roles. The M5Port is really a coherent slave that is
connected to the CPUs and other coherent masters of the system,
e.g. DMA ports. The PioPort, on the other hand, is a master port that
is connected to the memory and other slaves, for example the pio
devices.
This simplifies future changes into master/slave ports and is
consistent with the port roles throughout the system.
This patch cleans up forward declarations and a member-function
prototype that still referred to the old FunctionalPort, VirtualPort
and TranslatingPort. There is no change in functionality.
This patch makes O3's LSQ maintain total order between stores. Essentially
only the store at the head of the store buffer is allowed to be in flight.
Only after that store completes, the next store is issued to the memory
system. By default, the x86 architecture will have TSO.
This patch adds a missing curly brace when clearing and setting the
appropriate bits in the ns_gige.cc code.
This commit is not based on any runtime bug experienced, but rather
inspection of the code.
CopyStringOut() improperly indexed setting the null
character, would result in zeroing a random byte
of memory after(out of bounds) the character array.
This patch implements the functionality for forwarding invalidations and
replacements from the L1 cache of the Ruby memory system to the O3 CPU. The
implementation adds a list of ports to RubyPort. Whenever a replacement or an
invalidation is performed, the L1 cache forwards this to all the ports, which
is the LSQ in case of the O3 CPU.
This command will be sent from the memory system (Ruby) to the LSQ of
an O3 CPU so that the LSQ, if it needs to, invalidates the address in
the request packet.
This patch removes the idiosyncratic nature of the default bus port
and makes it yet another port in the list of interfaces. Rather than
having a specific pointer to the default port we merely track the
identifier of this port. This change makes future port diversification
easier and overall cleans up the bus code.
In preparation for the introduction of Master and Slave ports, this
patch removes the default port parameter in the Python port and thus
forces the argument list of the Port to contain only the
description. The drawback at this point is that the config port and
dma port of PCI and DMA devices have to be connected explicitly. This
is key for future diversification as the pio and config port are
slaves, but the dma port is a master.
This patch makes the bus bridge uni-directional and specialises the
bus ports to be a master port and a slave port. This greatly
simplifies the assumptions on both sides as either port only has to
deal with requests or responses. The following patches introduce the
notion of master and slave ports, and would not be possible without
this split of responsibilities.
In making the bridge unidirectional, the address range mechanism of
the bridge is also changed. For the cases where communication is
taking place both ways, an additional bridge is needed. This causes
issues with the existing mechanism, as the busses cannot determine
when to stop iterating the address updates from the two bridges. To
avoid this issue, and also greatly simplify the specification, the
bridge now has a fixed set of address ranges, specified at creation
time.
The functional ports are no longer used and this patch cleans up the
legacy that is still present in buses, memories, CPUs etc. Note that
this does not refer to the class FunctionalPort (already removed), but
rather ports with the name (and use) functional.
This patch simplifies the address-range determination mechanism and
also unifies the naming across ports and devices. It further splits
the queries for determining if a port is snooping and what address
ranges it responds to (aiming towards a separation of
cache-maintenance ports and pure memory-mapped ports). Default
behaviours are such that most ports do not have to define isSnooping,
and master ports need not implement getAddrRanges.
This patch removes the default port and instead relies on the peer
being set to NULL initially. The binding check (i.e. is a port
connected or not) will eventually be moved to the init function of the
modules.
This patch removes the inheritance of EventManager from the ports and
moves all responsibility for event queues to the owner. Eventually the
event manager should be the interface block, which could either be the
structural owner or a subblock like a LSQ in the O3 CPU for example.
This patch performs minimal changes to move the instruction and data
ports from specialised subclasses to the base CPU (to the largest
degree possible). Ultimately it servers to make the CPU(s) have a
well-defined interface to the memory sub-system.
Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable
all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has
the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem
and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address
maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is
used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong
to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data
port in a port proxy.
The following replacements are made:
FunctionalPort > PortProxy
TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy
VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy

This patch changes the access permission for the WB_E_W state from
Busy to Read_Write to avoid having issues in follow-on patches with
functional accesses going through Ruby. This change was made after
consultation with all involved parties and is more of a work-around
than a fix.
The system port is used as a globally reachable access point to the
memory subsystem. The benefit of using an actual port is that the
usual infrastructure is used to resolve any access and thus makes the
overall system able to handle distributed memories in any
configuration, and also makes the accesses agnostic to the address
map. This patch only introduces the port and does not actually use it
for anything.
This patch changes the functionalAccess member function in the cache
model such that it is aware of what port the access came from, i.e. if
it came from the CPU side or from the memory side. By adding this
information, it is possible to respect the 'forwardSnoops' flag for
snooping requests coming from the memory side and not forward
them. This fixes an outstanding issue with the IO bus getting accesses
that have no valid destination port and also cleans up future changes
to the bus model.
A recent changeset (aae12ce9f34c) removed support for
PAL-mode breakpoints in Alpha, since it was awkward
and likely unused. This patch lets a user know if they
potentially run into this limitation.
The definition for the class CacheMsg was removed long back. Some declaration
had still survived, which was recently removed. Since the PerfectCacheMemory
class relied on this particular declaration, its absence let to compilation
breaking down. Hence this patch.
This patch resurrects ruby's cache warmup capability. It essentially
makes use of all the infrastructure that was added to the controllers,
memories and the cache recorder.
This patch adds function to the Sparse Memory so that the blocks can be
recorded in a cache trace. The blocks are added to the cache recorder
which can later write them into a file.
This patch adds functions to the memory vector class that can be used for
collating memory pages to raw trace and for populating pages from a raw
trace.
The SparseMemEntry structure includes just one void* pointer. It seems
unnecessary that we have a structure for this. The patch removes the
structure and makes use of a typedef on void* instead.
This adds the derived class FunctionalPacket to fix a long standing
deficiency in the Packet class where it was unable to handle finding data to
partially satisfy a functional access. Made this a derived class as
functional accesses are used only in certain contexts and to not add any
additional overhead to the existing Packet class.
This patch adds a mechanism to collect run time samples for specific portions
of a benchmark, using work_begin and work_end pseudo instructions.It also enhances
the histogram stat to report geometric mean.
The previous version didn't work correctly with max integer values (2^31-1 for
32-bit, 2^63-1 for 64bit version), causing "shift" to become -1. For smaller
numbers, it wouldn't have caused functional errors, but would have resulted in
more than necessary loops in the while loop. Special-cased cases when (max + 1
== 0) to prevent the ceilLog2 functions from failing.
To make gem5 compile and run with swig 2.0.4 a few minor fixes are
necessary, the fail label issues by swig must not be treated as an
error by gcc (tested with gcc 4.2.1), and the vector wrappers must
have SWIGPY_SLICE_ARG defined which happens in pycontainer.swg,
included through std_container.i. By adding the aforementioned include
to the vector wrappers everything seems to work.
Adaptations to make gem5 compile and run on OSX 10.7.2, with a stock
gcc 4.2.1 and the remaining dependencies from macports, i.e. python
2.7,.2 swig 2.0.4, mercurial 2.0. The changes include an adaptation of
the SConstruct to handle non-library linker flags, and Darwin-specific
code to find the memory usage of gem5. A number of Ruby files relied
on ambigious uint (without the 32 suffix) which caused compilation
errors.
This constant is currently in System.hh, but is only used in Set.hh. It
is being moved to Set.hh to remove this artificial dependence of Set.hh
on System.hh.

Adds the flag 'recvSnoops' which enables pagewalkers using DmaPorts,
to properly configure snoops.

Squashes the subsequent instructions in O3 pipe after the service call, so that
they see the effect of the system call when re-executed. This isn't really an issue
with FS mode, but can show up in SE mode.

There was a bug in the mm_disk implementation where a copy paste error
resulted in the d32 variable not being initialised (as it incorrectly
was used instead of d16), and gcc 4.5 complaining.

This patch changes the implementation of Ruby's recvTiming() function so
that it pushes a packet in to the Sequencer instead of a RubyRequest. This
requires changes in the Sequencer's makeRequest() and issueRequest()
functions, as they also need to operate on a Packet instead of RubyRequest.
This patch adds a fault model, which provides the probability of a number of
architectural faults in the interconnection network (e.g., data corruption,
misrouting). These probabilities can be used to realistically inject faults
in GARNET and faithfully evaluate the effectiveness of novel resilient NoC
architectures.
This patch adds a new microop for memory barrier. The microop itself does
nothing, but since it is marked as a memory barrier, the O3 CPU should flush
all the pending loads and stores before the fence to the memory system.
This patch removes some of the unused typedefs. It also moves
some of the typedefs from Global.hh to TypeDefines.hh. The patch
also eliminates the file NodeID.hh.
This parameter depends on a number of coincidences to work properly. First,
there must be an array assigned to system called "cpu" even though there's no
parameter called that. Second, the items in the "cpu" array have to have a
"clock" parameter which has a "frequency" member. This is true of the normal
CPUs, but isn't true of the memory tester CPUs. This happened to work before
because the memory tester CPUs were only used in SE mode where this parameter
was being excluded. Since everything is being pulled into a common binary,
this won't work any more. Since the boot_cpu_frequency parameter is only used
by Alpha's Linux System object (and Mips's through copy and paste), the
definition of that parameter is moved down to those objects specifically.
In RubySlicc_ComponentMapping.hh, certain '#define's have been used for
mapping MachineType to GenericMachineType. These '#define's are being
eliminated and the code will now be generated by SLICC instead. Also
are being eliminated some of the unused functions from
RubySlicc_ComponentMapping.sm.
PageTable supported an allocate() call that called back
through the Process to allocate memory, but did not have
a method to map addresses without allocating new pages.
It makes more sense for Process to do the allocation, so
this method was renamed allocateMem() and moved to Process,
and uses a new map() call on PageTable.
The remaining uses of the process pointer in PageTable
were only to get the name and the PID, so by passing these
in directly in the constructor, we can make PageTable
completely independent of Process.
Replace the (broken as of previous changeset) swig_objdecl() method
that allowed/forced you to substitute a whole new C++ struct
definition for SWIG to wrap with a set of export_method* hooks
that let you just declare a set of C++ methods (or other declarations)
that get inserted in the auto-generated struct.
Restore the System get/setMemoryMode methods, and use this mechanism
to specialize SimObject as well, eliminating teh need for sim_object.i.
Needed bits of sim_object.i are moved to the new pyobject.i.
Also sucked a little SimObject specialization into cxx_param_decl()
allowing us to get rid of src/sim/sim_object_params.hh. Now the
generation and wrapping of the base SimObject param struct is more
in line with how derived objects are handled.

rename : src/python/swig/sim_object.i => src/python/swig/pyobject.i
- Move the random bits of SWIG code generation out of src/SConscript
file and into methods on the objects being wrapped.
- Cleaned up some variable naming and added some comments to make
the process a little clearer.
- Did a little generated file/module renaming:
- vptype_Foo now Foo_vector
- init_Foo is now Foo_init
This makes it easier to see all the Foo-related files in a
sorted directory listing.
- Made cxx_predecls and swig_predecls normal SimObject classmethods.
- Got rid of swig_objdecls hook, even though this breaks the System
objects get/setMemoryMode method exports. Will be fixing this in
a future changeset.
