A response to a ReadReq can either be a ReadResp or a
ReadRespWithInvalidate. As we add targets to an MSHR for a ReadReq we
assume that the response will be a ReadResp. When the response is
invalidating (ReadRespWithInvalidate) servicing more than one targets
can potentially violate the memory ordering. This change fixes the way
we handle a ReadRespWithInvalidate. When a cache receives a
ReadRespWithInvalidate we service only the first FromCPU target and
all the FromSnoop targets from the MSHR target list. The rest of the
FromCPU targets are deferred and serviced by a new request.

Previously the information of whether a response was allocating or not
was a property of the MSHR. This change makes this flag a property of
the TargetList. Differernt TargetLists, e.g. the targets and the
deferred targets lists might have different values. Additionally, the
information about whether each of the target expects an allocating
response is stored inside the TargetList container. This allows for
repopulating the flag in case some of the targets are removed.

HSA functions calls are still not supported properly with HSAIL, but
the recent AMP runtime modifications rely on being able to parse the
BRIG/HSAIL files that are extracted from the application binaries.
We need to parse the function call HSAIL definitions, but we do not
actually need to make the function calls.
The reason that this happens is that HCC appends a set of routines
to every HSAIL binary that it creates. These extra, unnecessary
routines exist in the HCC source as a file; this file is cat'd onto
everything that the compiler outputs before being assembled into the
application's binary. HCC does this because it might call these helper
functions. However, it doesn't actually appear to do so in the AMP
codes so we just parse these functions with the HSAIL parser and
then ignore them.
it's possible for the offset provided to an HSAIL mem inst to be a negative
value, however the variable we use to hold the offset is an unsigned type.
this can lead to excessively large offset values when the offset is negative,
which will almost certainly cause the access to go out of bounds.
In MessageBuffer the m_not_avail_count member is incremented but not used.
This causes an overflow reported by ASAN. This patch changes from an int to
Stats::Scalar, since the count is useful in debugging finite MessageBuffers.
RISC-V makes use of load-reserved and store-conditional instructions to
enable creation of lock-free concurrent data manipulation as well as
ACQUIRE and RELEASE semantics for memory ordering of LR, SC, and AMO
instructions (the latter of which do not follow LR/SC semantics). This
patch is a correction to patch 4, which added these instructions to the
implementation of RISC-V. It modifies locked_mem.hh and the
implementations of lr.w, sc.w, lr.d, and sc.d to apply the proper gem5
flags and return the proper values.
An important difference between gem5's LLSC semantics and RISC-V's LR/SC
ones, beyond the name, is that gem5 uses 0 to indicate failure and 1 to
indicate success, while RISC-V is the opposite. Strictly speaking, RISC-V
uses 0 to indicate success and nonzero to indicate failure where the
value would indicate the error, but currently only 1 is reserved as a
failure code by the ISA reference.
This is the seventh patch in the series which originally consisted of five
patches that added the RISC-V ISA to gem5. The original five patches added
all of the instructions and added support for more detailed CPU models and
the sixth patch corrected the implementations of Linux constants and
structs. There will be an eighth patch that adds some regression tests
for the instructions.

This is an add-on patch for the original series that implemented RISC-V
that improves the implementation of Linux emulation for SE mode. Basically
it cleans up linux/linux.hh by removing constants that haven't been
defined for the RISC-V Linux proxy kernel and rearranging the stat
struct so it aligns with RISC-V's implementation of it. It also adds
placeholders for system calls that have been given numbers in RISC-V
but haven't been given implementations yet. These system calls are
as follows:
- readlinkat
- sigprocmask
- ioctl
- clock_gettime
- getrusage
- getrlimit

Fourth of five patches adding RISC-V to GEM5. This patch adds the RV64A
extension, which includes atomic memory instructions. These instructions
atomically read a value from memory, modify it with a value contained in a
source register, and store the original memory value in the destination
register and modified value back into memory. Because this requires two
memory accesses and GEM5 does not support two timing memory accesses in
a single instruction, each of these instructions is split into two micro-
ops: A "load" micro-op, which reads the memory, and a "store" micro-op,
which modifies and writes it back. Each atomic memory instruction also has
two bits that acquire and release a lock on its memory location.
Additionally, there are atomic load and store instructions that only either
load or store, but not both, and can acquire or release memory locks.
Note that because the current implementation of RISC-V only supports one
core and one thread, it doesn't make sense to make use of AMO instructions.
However, they do form a standard extension of the RISC-V ISA, so they are
included mostly as a placeholder for when multithreaded execution is
implemented. As a result, any tests for their correctness in a future
patch may be abbreviated.
Patch 1 introduced RISC-V and implemented the base instruction set, RV64I;
patch 2 implemented the integer multiply extension, RV64M; and patch 3

There has been some problem when using address and undefined-behavior
sanitizers at the same time. This patch will look for the special case
where both are enabled at once and change the flags passed to the compiler
to reflect this.
the GPUExecContext context currently stores a reference to its parent WF's
GPUISA object, however there are some special instructions that do not have
an associated WF. when these objects are constructed they set their WF pointer
to null, which causes the GPUExecContext to segfault when trying to
dereference
the WF pointer to get at the WF's GPUISA object. here we change the GPUISA
reference in the GPUExecContext class to a pointer so that it may be set to
null.
UBSAN flags this operation because it detects that arg is being cast directly
to an unsigned type, argBits. this patch fixes this by first casting the
value to a signed int type, then reintrepreting the raw bits of the signed
int into argBits.
SequencerMsg is autogenerated by slicc scripts and the MessageSizeType is
initialized to the max enume value by default. The DMASequencer pushes this
message to the mandatory queue and since the MessageSizeType is unitialized,
string_to_MessageSizeType() function used by traces to print the message fails
with a panic. This patch avoids this problem by initializing MessageSizeType
of SequencerMsg to Request_Control.
fixes to appease clang++. tested on:
Ubuntu clang version 3.5.0-4ubuntu2~trusty2
(tags/RELEASE_350/final) (based on LLVM 3.5.0)
Ubuntu clang version 3.6.0-2ubuntu1~trusty1
(tags/RELEASE_360/final) (based on LLVM 3.6.0)
the fixes address the following five issues:
1) the exec continuations in gpu_static_inst.hh were marked
as protected when they should be public. here we mark
them as public
2) the Abs instruction uses std::abs() in its execute method.
because Abs is templated, it can also operate on U32 and U64,
types, which cause Abs::execute() to pass uint32_t and uint64_t
types to std::abs() respectively. this triggers a warning
because std::abs() has no effect in this case. to rememdy this
we add template specialization for the execute() method of Abs
when its template paramter is U32 or U64.
3) Some potocols that utilize the code in cprintf.hh were missing
includes to BoolVec.hh, which defines operator<< for the BoolVec
type. This would cause issues when the generated code would try
to pass a BoolVec type to a method in cprintf.hh that used
operator<< on an instance of a BoolVec.
4) Surprise, clang doesn't like it when you clobber all the bits
in a newly allocated object. I.e., this code:
tlb = new GpuTlbEntry\[size\];
std::memset(tlb, 0, sizeof(GpuTlbEntry) \* size);
Let's use std::vector to track the TLB entries in the GpuTlb now...
5) There were a few variables used only in DPRINTFs, so we mark them
with M5_VAR_USED.
This patch adds the ability for an application to request dist-gem5 to begin/
end synchronization using an m5 op. When toggling on sync, all nodes agree
on the next sync point based on the maximum of all nodes' ticks. CPUs are
suspended until the sync point to avoid sending network messages until sync has
been enabled. Toggling off sync acts like a global execution barrier, where
all CPUs are disabled until every node reaches the toggle off point. This
avoids tricky situations such as one node hitting a toggle off followed by a
toggle on before the other nodes hit the first toggle off.
DMA sequencers and protocols can currently only issue one DMA access at
a time. This patch implements the necessary functionality to support
multiple outstanding DMA requests in Ruby.
Currently, all the network devices create a 16K buffer for the 'data' field
in EthPacketData, and use 'length' to keep track of the size of the packet
in the buffer. This patch introduces the 'simLength' parameter to
EthPacketData, which is used to hold the effective length of the packet used
for all timing calulations in the simulator. Serialization is performed using
only the useful data in the packet ('length') and not necessarily the entire
original buffer.
this patch adds an ordered response buffer to the GM pipeline
to ensure in-order data delivery. the buffer is implemented as
a stl ordered map, which sorts the request in program order by
using their sequence ID. when requests return to the GM pipeline
they are marked as done. only the oldest request may be serviced
from the ordered buffer, and only if is marked as done.
the FIFO response buffers are kept and used in OoO delivery mode
for HSAIL an operand's indices into the register files may be calculated
trivially, because the operands are always read from a register file, or are
an immediate.
for machine ISA, however, an op selector may specify special registers, or
may specify special SGPRs with an alias op selector value. the location of
some of the special registers values are dependent on the size of the RF
in some cases. here we add a way for the underlying getRegisterIndex()
method to know about the size of the RFs, so that it may find the relative
positions of the special register values.
currently the PC is incremented on an instruction granularity, and not as an
instruction's byte address. machine ISA instructions assume the PC is a byte
address, and is incremented accordingly. here we make the GPU model, and the
HSAIL instructions treat the PC as a byte address as well.
the GPUISA class is meant to encapsulate any ISA-specific behavior - special
register accesses, isa-specific WF/kernel state, etc. - in a generic enough
way so that it may be used in ISA-agnostic code.
gpu-compute: use the GPUISA object to advance the PC
the GPU model treats the PC as a pointer to individual instruction objects -
which are store in a contiguous array - and not a byte address to be fetched
from the real memory system. this is ok for HSAIL because all instructions
are considered by the model to be the same size.
in machine ISA, however, instructions may be 32b or 64b, and branches are
calculated by advancing the PC by the number of words (4 byte chunks) it
needs to advance in the real instruction stream. because of this there is
a mismatch between the PC we use to index into the instruction array, and
the actual byte address PC the ISA expects. here we move the PC advance
calculation to the ISA so that differences in the instrucion sizes may be
accounted for in generic way.
because every taken branch causes fetch to be discarded, we move the call
to the WF to avoid to have to call it from each and every branch instruction
type.
we are removing doGmReturn from the GM pipe, and adding completeAcc()
implementations for the HSAIL mem ops. the behavior in doGmReturn is
dependent on HSAIL and HSAIL mem ops, however the completion phase
of memory ops in machine ISA can be very different, even amongst individual
machine ISA mem ops. so we remove this functionality from the pipeline and
allow it to be implemented by the individual instructions.
this patch removes the GPUStaticInst enums that were defined in GPU.py.
instead, a simple set of attribute flags that can be set in the base
instruction class are used. this will help unify the attributes of HSAIL
and machine ISA instructions within the model itself.
because the static instrution now carries the attributes, a GPUDynInst
must carry a pointer to a valid GPUStaticInst so a new static kernel launch
instruction is added, which carries the attributes needed to perform a
the kernel launch.
the RequestDesc was previously implemented as a std::pair, which made
the implementation overly complex and error prone. here we encapsulate the
packet, primary, and secondary types all in a single data structure with
all members properly intialized in a ctor
Read() should not write anything when returning 0 (EOF).
This patch does not correct the same bug occuring for :
nbr_read=read(file, buf, nbytes)
When nbr_read<nbytes, nbytes bytes are copied into the virtual
RAM instead of nbr_read. If buf is smaller than nbytes, a
page fault occurs, even if buf is in fact bigger than nbr_read.

patch makes the error more clear.
Added power-down state transitions to the DRAM controller model.
Added per rank parameter, outstandingEvents, which tracks the number
of outstanding command events and is used to determine when the
controller should transition to a low power state.
The controller will only transition when there are no outstanding events
scheduled and the number of command entries for the given rank is 0.
The outstandingEvents parameter is incremented for every RD/WR burst,
PRE, and REF event scheduled. ACT is implicitly covered by RD/WR
since burst will always issue and complete after a required ACT.
The parameter is decremented when the event is serviced (completed).
The controller will automatically transition to ACT power down,
PRE power down, or SREF.
Transition to ACT power down state scheduled from:
1) The RespondEvent, where read data is received from the memory.
ACT power-down entry will be scheduled when one or more banks is
open, all commands for the rank have completed (no more commands
scheduled), and there are no commands in queue for the rank
Transition to PRE power down scheduled from:
1) respondEvent, when all banks are closed, all commands have
completed, and there are no commands in queue for the rank
2) prechargeEvent when all banks are closed, all commands have
completed, and there are no commands in queue for the rank
3) refreshEvent, after the refresh is complete when the previous
state was ACT power-down
4) refreshEvent, after the refresh is complete when the previous
state was PRE power-down and there are commands in the queue.
Transition to SREF will be scheduled from:
1) refreshEvent, after the refresh is completes when the previous
state was PRE power-down with no commands in queue
Power-down exit commands are scheduled from:
1) The refreshEvent, prior to issuing a refresh
2) doDRAMAccess, to wake-up the rank for RD/WR command issue.
Self-refresh exit commands are scheduled from:
1) The next request event, when the queue has commands for the rank
in the readQueue or there are commands for the rank in the
writeQueue and the bus state is WRITE.

This patch enables timing accesses for KVM cpu. A new state,
RunningMMIOPending, is added to indicate that there are outstanding timing
requests generated by KVM in the system. KVM's tick() is disabled and the
simulation does not enter into KVM until all outstanding timing requests have
completed. The main motivation for this is to allow KVM CPU to perform MMIO
in Ruby, since Ruby does not support atomic accesses.
Normal MMAPPED_IPR requests are allowed to execute speculatively under the
assumption that they have no side effects. The special case of m5ops that are
treated like MMAPPED_IPR should not be allowed to execute speculatively, since
they can have side-effects. Adding the STRICT_ORDER flag to these requests
blocks execution until the associated instruction hits the ROB head.
The quiesce family of magic ops can be simplified by the inclusion of
quiesceTick() and quiesce() functions on ThreadContext. This patch also
gets rid of the FS guards, since suspending a CPU is also a valid
operation for SE mode.
This patch introduces the DmaCallback helper class, which registers a callback
to fire after a sequence of (potentially non-contiguous) DMA transfers on a
DmaPort completes.
Connecting basic blocks would stop too early in kernels where ret was not the
last instruction. This patch allows basic blocks after the ret instruction
to be properly connected.
The receiver thread in dist_iface is allowed to directly exit the simulation.
This can cause exit to be called twice if the main thread simultaneously wants
to exit the simulation. Therefore, have the receiver thread enqueue a request
to exit on the primary event queue for the main simulation thread to handle.
Ethernet devices are currently only hooked up if running in FS mode. Much of
the Ethernet networking code is generic and can be used to build non-Ethernet
device models. Some of these device models do not require a complex driver
stack and can be built to use an EmulatedDriver in SE mode. This patch enables
etherent interfaces to properly connect regardless of whether the simulation
is in FS or SE mode.
Currently only 'start' and 'end' of AddrRange are printed in config.ini.
This causes address ranges to be overlapping when loading a c++-only
config with interleaved addresses using CxxConfigManger. This patch adds
prints for the interleave and XOR bits to config.ini such that address
ranges are properly setup with cxx config.
Add a customizable NoMali GPU model and an example Mali T760
configuration. Unlike the normal NoMali model (NoMaliGpu), the
NoMaliCustopmGpu model exposes all the important GPU ID registers to
Python. This makes it possible to implement custom GPU configurations
by without changing the underlying NoMali library.
