Changeset 11793:9e7dc6807c35
---------------------------
proto: Fix warnings for protoc v3
protoc v3 introduces a new syntax for proto files and warns when the
syntax is not explicitly stated.
protoc relies on the fact that undefined preprocessor symbols are
explanded to 0 but since we use -Wundef they end up generating
warnings.
When in 64-bit mode, if the stack is accessed implicitly by an instruction,
the alternate address prefix should be ignored if present.
This patch adds an extra flag to the ldstop which signifies when the
address override should be ignored. Then, for all of the affected
instructions, this patch adds two options to the ld and st opcode to
use the current stack addressing mode for all addresses and to ignore the
AddressSizeFlagBit.
Finally, this patch updates the x86 TLB to not truncate the address if it
is in 64-bit mode and the IgnoreAddrSizeFlagBit is set.
This fixes a problem when calling __libc_start_main with a binary that
is linked with a recent version of ld. This version of ld uses the
address override prefix (0x67) on the call instruction instead of a nop.
Note: This has not been tested in compatibility mode and only the call
instruction with the address override prefix has been tested.
See [1] page 9 (pdf page 45)
For instructions that are affected see [1] page 519 (pdf page 555).

Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This
involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward
declarations could have been used rather than a full include.
the GPUCoalescer code is used in the ruby profiler regardless of
whether or not the coalescer code has been compiled, which can
lead to link/run time errors. here we add #ifdefs to guard the
usage of GPUCoalescer code. eventually we should refactor this
code to use probe points.
Garnet's NetworkInterface does not consider the size of MessageBuffers when
ejecting a Message from the network. Add a size check for the MessageBuffer
and only enqueue if space is available. If space is not available, the
message if placed in a queue and the credit is held. A callback from the
MessageBuffer is implemented to wake the NetworkInterface. If there are
messages in the stalled queue, they are processed first, in a FIFO manner
and if succesfully ejected, the credit is finally sent back upstream. The
maximum size of the stall queue is equal to the number of valid VNETs
with MessageBuffers attached.
This patch is an updated version of /r/3297.
"The most important statistic for measuring memory hierarchy performance is
throughput, which is affected by independent variables, buffer sizing and
communication latency. It is difficult/impossible to debug performance issues
through series buffers without knowing which are the bottlenecks. For finite
buffers, this patch adds statistics for the average number of messages in the
buffer, the occupancy of the buffer slots, and number of message stalls."
The NetworkInterface wakeup currently iterates over all VNETs and breaks the
loop if a VNET is unable to allocate a VC. This can cause a deadlock if a
lower numbered VNET is unable to allocate a VC while a higher numbered VNET
has idle VCs. This seems like a bug as Garnet 1.0 uses a while loop over an
if-statement, suggesting the break was intended for this while loop. This
patch removes the break statement, which allows up to one message to be
dequeued from a VNET and injected into the network.
The class was crammed into syscall_emul.hh which has tons of forward
declarations and template definitions. To clean it up a bit, moved the
class into separate files and commented the class with doxygen style
comments. Also, provided some encapsulation by adding some accessors and
a mutator.
The syscallreturn.hh file was renamed syscall_return.hh to make it consistent
with other similarly named files in the src/sim directory.
The DPRINTF_SYSCALL macro was moved into its own header file with the
include the Base and Verbose flags as well.
--HG--
rename : src/sim/syscallreturn.hh => src/sim/syscall_return.hh
The non-standard sc_time constructors
- sc_time( uint64, bool scale )
- sc_time( double, bool scale )
have been deprecated in SystemC 2.3.1 and a warning is issued when being
used. Insted the new 'sc_time::from_value' function is used to omit the
warning message.

The CountedDrainEvent event was used to keep track of objects that
required additional simulation to drain. It was removed as a part of
the great drain rewrite, but the declaration remained.

This changeset adds a maintainer script, create_patches.sh, that can
be used to prepare for upstream from a git repository. The script can
be used to generate patches in Mercurial or git format. The commit
messages in the exported patches are all filtered, see
upstream_msg_filter.sed, to ensure that irrelevant meta data isn't
included in the upstream commit.
Kudos to Curtis Dunham and Nikos Nikoleris for reviews and usability
enhancements for earlier versions of this patch.

When restoring from a checkpoint, the simulation used to use file handles from
the checkpoint. This disallows multiple separate restore simulations from using
separate input and output files and directories, and plays havoc when the
checkpointed file locations may have changed. Add handling to allow the command
line specified files to be used as input/output for the restored simulation
(Note: this is the similar functionality to FS mode for output and error).
The Minor and o3 cpu models share the branch prediction
code. Minor relies on the BPredUnit::squash() function
to update the branch predictor tables on a branch mispre-
diction. This is fine because Minor executes in-order, so
the update is on the correct path. However, this causes the
branch predictor to be updated on out-of-order branch
mispredictions when using the o3 model, which should not
be the case.
This patch guards against speculative update of the branch
prediction tables. On a branch misprediction, BPredUnit::squash()
calls BpredUnit::update(..., squashed = true). The underlying
branch predictor tests against the value of squashed. If it is
true, it restores any speculatively updated internal state
it might have (e.g., global/local branch history), then returns.
If false, it updates its prediction tables. Previously, exist-
ing predictors did not test against the "squashed" parameter.
To accomodate for this change, the Minor model must now call
BPredUnit::squash() then BPredUnit::update(..., squashed = false)
on branch mispredictions. Before, calling BpredUnit::squash()
performed the prediction tables update.
The effect is a slight MPKI improvement when using the o3
model. A further patch should perform the same modifications
for the indirect target predictor and BTB (less critical).

The tournament predictor is presented as doing speculative
update of the global history and non-speculative update
of the local history used to generate the branch prediction.
However, the code does speculative update of both histories.

The target of taken conditional direct branches does not
need to be resolved in IEW: the target can be computed at
decode, usually using the decoded instruction word and the PC.
The higher-than-necessary penalty is taken only on conditional
branches that are predicted taken but miss in the BTB. Thus,
this is mostly inconsequential on IPC if the BTB is big/associative
enough (fewer capacity/conflict misses). Nonetheless, what gem5
simulates is not representative of how conditional branch targets
can be handled.

cachePorts currently constrains the number of store packets written to the
D-Cache each cycle), but loads currently affect this variable. This leads
to unexpected congestion (e.g., setting cachePorts to a realistic 1 will
in fact allow a store to WB only if no loads have accessed the D-Cache
this cycle). In the absence of arbitration, this patch decouples how many
loads can be done per cycle from how many stores can be done per cycle.

When Ruby controllers stall messages in MessageBuffers, the buffer moves those
messages off the priority heap and into a per-address stall map. When buffers
are finite-sized, the test areNSlotsAvailable() only checks the size of the
priority heap, but ignores the stall map, so the map is allowed to grow
unbounded if the controller stalls numerous messages. This patch fixes the
problem by tracking the stall map size and testing the total number of messages
in the buffer appropriately.
the iterator declared in DMASequencer::ackCallback() is only used in an
assert, this causes clang to fail when building fast. here we move
the find call on the request table directly into the assert.
The aforementioned upgrader in [1] assumes every option in [system]
has a delimiting '.', and also seems to do its rewriting work a bit too
unconditionally. Most checkpoints in the wild don't have this device,
in which case this script should be a safe no-op.
