This patch rpovides functional access support in Ruby. Currently only
the M5Port of RubyPort supports functional accesses. The support for
functional through the PioPort will be added as a separate patch.
At the same time, rename the trace flags to debug flags since they
have broader usage than simply tracing. This means that
--trace-flags is now --debug-flags and --trace-help is now --debug-help
In addition to obvious changes, this required a slight change to the slicc
grammar to allow types with :: in them. Otherwise slicc barfs on std::string
which we need for the headers that slicc generates.
This patch includes the necessary changes to connect ruby objects using
the python configuration system. Mainly it consists of removing
unnecessary ruby object pointers and connecting the necessary object
pointers using the generated param objects. This patch includes the
slicc changes necessary to connect generated ruby objects together using
the python configuraiton system.
The necessary companion conversion of Ruby objects generated by SLICC
are converted to M5 SimObjects in the following patch, so this patch
alone does not compile.
Conversion of Garnet network models is also handled in a separate
patch; that code is temporarily disabled from compiling to allow
testing of interim code.
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.
This was done with an automated process, so there could be things that were
done in this tree in the past that didn't make it. One known regression
is that atomic memory operations do not seem to work properly anymore.
1. removed checks from tester files
2. removed else clause in Sequencer and DirectoryMemory else clause is
needed by the tester, it is up to Derek to revive it elsewhere when he
gets to it
Also:
1. Changed m_entries in DirectoryMemory to a map
2. And replaced SIMICS_read_physical_memory with a call to now-dummy
Derek's-to-be readPhysMem function
This basically means changing all #include statements and changing
autogenerated code so that it generates the correct paths. Because
slicc generates #includes, I had to hard code the include paths to
mem/protocol.
1) Removing files from the ruby build left some unresovled
symbols. Those have been fixed.
2) Most of the dependencies on Simics data types and the simics
interface files have been removed.
3) Almost all mention of opal is gone.
4) Huge chunks of LogTM are now gone.
5) Handling 1-4 left ~hundreds of unresolved references, which were
fixed, yielding a snowball effect (and the massive size of this
delta).
