This patch updates the output for regression tests that are carried out on
MESI_CMP_directory protocol. The changes made to the protocol in order to
remove the bugs present result in regression failure for the 60.rubytest.
Since the earlier protocol was incorrect, so we certainly cannot relay on the
earlier reference output. Hence, the update.
I've renamed the check_whitespace operation to check_style. You're going to
need to change your .hg/hgrc file. While you're at it, add a pre-qrefresh
hook please.
This test exercises each of the functions in the reference counting pointer
implementation individually (except get()) and verifies they have some
minimially expected behavior. It also checks that reference counted objects
are freed when their usage count goes to 0 in some basic situations,
specifically a pointer being set to NULL and a pointer being deleted.
There's no reason for it to derive from SimLoopExitEvent.
This whole drain thing needs to be redone eventually,
but this is a stopgap to make later changes to
SimLoopExitEvent feasible.
Avoid direct references to mainEventQueue in pseudo-insts
by indirecting through associated CPU object.
Made exitSimLoop() more flexible to enable some of these.
There were several copies of similar functions that looked
like they all replicated reschedule(), so I replaced them
with direct calls. Keeping this separate from the previous
cset since there may be some subtle functional differences
if the code ever reschedules an event that is scheduled but
not squashed (though none were detected in the regressions).
Events need to be scheduled on the queue assigned
to the SimObject, not on the global queue (which
should be going away).
Also cleaned up a number of redundant expressions
that made the code unnecessarily verbose.
I like the brevity of Ali's recent change, but the ambiguity of
sometimes showing the source and sometimes the target is a little
confusing. This patch makes scons typically list all sources and
all targets for each action, with the common path prefix factored
out for brevity. It's a little more verbose now but also more
informative.
Somehow Ali talked me into adding colors too, which is a whole
'nother story.
This patch changes the manner in which data is copied from L1 to L2 cache in
the implementation of the Hammer's cache coherence protocol. Earlier, data was
copied directly from one cache entry to another. This has been broken in to
two parts. First, the data is copied from the source cache entry to a
transaction buffer entry. Then, data is copied from the transaction buffer
entry to the destination cache entry.
This has been done to maintain the invariant - at any given instant, multiple
caches under a controller are exclusive with respect to each other.
These files really aren't general enough to belong in src/base.
This patch doesn't reorder include lines, leaving them unsorted
in many cases, but Nate's magic script will fix that up shortly.
--HG--
rename : src/base/sched_list.hh => src/cpu/sched_list.hh
rename : src/base/timebuf.hh => src/cpu/timebuf.hh
Ran all the source files through 'perl -pi' with this script:
s|\s*(};?\s*)?/\*\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*\*/(\s*})?|} // namespace $3|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*|} // namespace $2\n|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(\S+)\s*namespace\s*|} // namespace $1\n|;
Also did a little manual editing on some of the arch/*/isa_traits.hh files
and src/SConscript.
These operators were expecting a const T& instead of a const T*, and were not
being picked up and used by gcc in the right places as a result. Apparently no
one used these operators before. A unit test which exposed these problems,
verified the solution, and checks other basic functionality is on the way.
This patch adds an option to the script Ruby.py for setting the parameter
m_random_seed used for randomizing delays in the memory system. The option
can be specified as "--random_seed <seed value>".
clean up the code a little bit while we're at it.
I recommend that everyone adds the pre-qrefresh hook below since it
will make qref run the style hook and not just commit/qpush
[extensions]
style = <m5 path>/util/style.py
[hooks]
pretxncommit.style = python:style.check_whitespace
pre-qrefresh.style = python:style.check_whitespace
Two functions in src/mem/ruby/system/PerfectCacheMemory.hh, tryCacheAccess()
and cacheProbe(), end with calls to panic(). Both of these functions have
return type other than void. Any file that includes this header file fails
to compile because of the missing return statement. This patch adds dummy
values so as to avoid the compiler warnings.
This diff is for changing the way ASSERT is handled in Ruby. m5.fast
compiles out the assert statements by using the macro NDEBUG. Ruby uses the
macro RUBY_NO_ASSERT to do so. This macro has been removed and NDEBUG has
been put in its place.
