This mostly was a matter of changing the license owner to Princeton
which is as it should have been. The code was originally licensed
under the GPL but was relicensed as BSD by Li-Shiuan Peh on July 27,
2009. This relicensing was in an explicit e-mail to Nathan Binkert,
Brad Beckmann, Mark Hill, David Wood, and Steve Reinhardt.
This changeset contains a lot of different changes that are too
mingled to separate. They are:
1. Added MOESI_CMP_directory
I made the changes necessary to bring back MOESI_CMP_directory,
including adding a DMA controller. I got rid of MOESI_CMP_directory_m
and made MOESI_CMP_directory use a memory controller. Added a new
configuration for two level protocols in general, and
MOESI_CMP_directory in particular.
2. DMA Sequencer uses a generic SequencerMsg
I will eventually make the cache Sequencer use this type as well. It
doesn't contain an offset field, just a physical address and a length.
MI_example has been updated to deal with this.
3. Parameterized Controllers
SLICC controllers can now take custom parameters to use for mapping,
latencies, etc. Currently, only int parameters are supported.
Caches are now responsible for their own statistic gathering. This
requires a direct callback from the protocol on misses, and so all
future protocols need to take this into account.
The DMASequencer was still using a parameter from the old RubyConfig,
causing an offset error when the requested data wasn't block aligned.
This changeset also includes a fix to MI_example for a similar bug.
2. Reintroduced RMW_Read and RMW_Write
3. Defined -2 in the Sequencer as well as made a note about mandatory queue
Did not address the issues in the slicc because remaking the atomics altogether to allow
multiple processors to issue atomic requests at once
This also includes a change to the default Ruby random seed, which was
previously set using the wall clock. It is now set to 1234 so that
the stat files don't change for the regression tester.
