a317764577 ruby: slicc: have a static MachineType
This patch is imported from reviewboard patch 2551 by Nilay.
This patch moves from a dynamically defined MachineType to a statically
defined one.  The need for this patch was felt since a dynamically defined
type prevents us from having types for which no machine definition may
exist.

The following changes have been made:
i. each machine definition now uses a type from the MachineType enumeration
instead of any random identifier.  This required changing the grammar and the
*.sm files.
ii. MachineType enumeration defined statically in RubySlicc_Exports.sm.

3f68884c0e ruby: slicc: remove support for single machine, multiple types
This patch is imported from reviewboard patch 2550 by Nilay.
It was possible to specify multiple machine types with a single state machine.
This seems unnecessary and is being removed.

3840a72f37 stats: more updates due to PCI changes
A couple of the long regressions have been showing as CHANGED
since 11244:a2af58a06c4e despite the updates in 11245:1c5102c0a7a9.
The x86 regression looks like it was just missed, but it's not clear
why the ARM one is giving different results (perhaps a non-determinism
between zizzer and wherever the updated results were run?).

f5c4a45889 mem: Explicitly check MSHR snoops for cases not dealt with
Add a sanity check to make it explicit that we currently do not allow
an I/O coherent agent to directly issue writes into the coherent part
of the memory system (it has to go via a cache, and get transformed
into a read ex, upgrade or invalidation).

b93a9d0d51 mem: Do not use sender state to track forwarded snoops in cache
This patch changes how the cache tracks which snoops are forwarded,
and which ones are created locally. Previously the identification was
based on an empty sender state of a specific class, but this method
fails to distinguish which cache actually attached the sender
state. Instead we use the same mechanism as the crossbar, and keep
track of the requests that have outstanding snoops.

036263e280 mem: Fix cache sender state handling and add clarification
This patch addresses a bug in how the cache attached the MSHR as a
sender state. Rather than overwriting any existing sender state it now
pushes a new one. The handling of upward snoops is also clarified.

d765dbf22c arm: remote GDB: rationalize structure of register offsets
Currently, the wire format of register values in g- and G-packets is
modelled using a union of uint8/16/32/64 arrays.  The offset positions
of each register are expressed as a "register count" scaled according
to the width of the register in question.  This results in counter-
intuitive and error-prone "register count arithmetic", and some
formats would even be altogether unrepresentable in such model, e.g.
a 64-bit register following a 32-bit one would have a fractional index
in the regs64 array.
Another difficulty is that the array is allocated before the actual
architecture of the workload is known (and therefore before the correct
size for the array can be calculated).

With this patch I propose a simpler mechanism for expressing the
register set structure.  In the new code, GdbRegCache is an abstract
class; its subclasses contain straightforward structs reflecting the
register representation.  The determination whether to use e.g. the
AArch32 vs. AArch64 register set (or SPARCv8 vs SPARCv9, etc.) is made
by polymorphically dispatching getregs() to the concrete subclass.
The subclass is not instantiated until it is needed for actual
g-/G-packet processing, when the mode is already known.

This patch is not meant to be merged in on its own, because it changes
the contract between src/base/remote_gdb.* and src/arch/*/remote_gdb.*,
so as it stands right now, it would break the other architectures.
In this patch only the base and the ARM code are provided for review;
once we agree on the structure, I will provide src/arch/*/remote_gdb.*
for the other architectures; those patches could then be merged in
together.

b5a54eb64e sim: Use the old work item behavior by default
When adding an option to forward work items to the Python environment,
the new behavior was accidentally enabled by default. Set the value of
exit_on_work_items to False by default to revert to the old behavior
unless the simulation scripts explicitly requests work item
forwarding.

08754488a3 sim: Add an option to forward work items to Python
There are cases where we want the Python world to handle work items
instead of the C++ world. However, that's currently not possible. This
changeset adds the forward_work_items option to the System class. Then
it is set to True, work items will generate workbegin/workend
simulation exists with the work item ID as the exit code and the old
C++ handling is completely bypassed.

173a786921 ruby: more flexible ruby tester support
This patch allows the ruby random tester to use ruby ports that may only
support instr or data requests.  This patch is similar to a previous changeset
(8932:1b2c17565ac8) that was unfortunately broken by subsequent changesets.
This current patch implements the support in a more straight-forward way.
Since retries are now tested when running the ruby random tester, this patch
splits up the retry and drain check behavior so that RubyPort children, such
as the GPUCoalescer, can perform those operations correctly without having to
duplicate code.  Finally, the patch also includes better DPRINTFs for
debugging the tester.

2d79bf3d4d sim: Disable gzip compression for writefile pseudo instruction
The writefile pseudo instruction uses OutputDirectory::create and
OutputDirectory::openFile to create the output files. However, by
default these will check the file extention for .gz, and create a gzip
compressed stream if the file ending matches. When writing out files,
we want to write them out exactly as they are in the guest simulation,
and never want to compress them with gzio. Additionally, this causes
m5 writefile to fail when checking the error flags for the output
steam.

With this patch we add an additional no_gz argument to
OutputDirectory::create and OutputDirectory::openFile which allows us
to override the gzip compression.  Therefore, for m5 writefile we
disable the filename check, and always create a standard ostream.

6fa936b021 dev, arm: Add gem5 extensions to support more than 8 cores
Previous ARM-based simulations were limited to 8 cores due to
limitations in GICv2 and earlier. This changeset adds a set of
gem5-specific extensions that enable support for up to 256 cores.

When the gem5 extensions are enabled, the GIC uses CPU IDs instead of
a CPU bitmask in the GIC's register interface. To OS can enable the
extensions by setting bit 0x200 in ICDICTR.

This changeset is based on previous work by Matt Evans.

28d7e261ed syscall_emul: don't check host fd when allocating target fd
There's a well-meaning check in Process::allocFD() to return an invalid
target fd (-1) if the incoming host fd is -1.  However, this means that
emulated drivers, which want to allocate a target fd that doesn't
correspond to a host fd, can't use -1 to indicate an intentionally
invalid host fd.

It turns out the allocFD() check is redundant, as callers always test
the host fd for validity before calling.  Also, callers never test the
return value of allocFD() for validity, so even if the test failed,
it would likely have the undesirable result of returning -1 to the
target app as a file descriptor without setting errno.

Thus the check is pointless and is now getting in the way, so it seems
we should just get rid of it.

3080bbcc36 cpu: Create record type enum for elastic traces
This patch replaces the booleans that specified the elastic trace record
type with an enum type. The source of change is the proto message for
elastic trace where the enum is introduced. The struct definitions in the
elastic trace probe listener as well as the Trace CPU replace the boleans
with the proto message enum.

The patch does not impact functionality, but traces are not compatible with
previous version. This is preparation for adding new types of records in
subsequent patches.

9bd5051b60 config: Enable elastic trace capture and replay in se/fs
This patch adds changes to the configuration scripts to support elastic
tracing and replay.

The patch adds a command line option to enable elastic tracing in SE mode
and FS mode. When enabled the Elastic Trace cpu probe is attached to O3CPU
and a few O3 CPU parameters are tuned. The Elastic Trace probe writes out
both instruction fetch and data dependency traces. The patch also enables
configuring the TraceCPU to replay traces using the SE and FS script.

The replay run is designed to resume from checkpoint using atomic cpu to
restore state keeping it consistent with FS run flow. It then switches to
TraceCPU to replay the input traces.

7d3600c309 cpu: Add TraceCPU to playback elastic traces
This patch defines a TraceCPU that replays trace generated using the elastic
trace probe attached to the O3 CPU model. The elastic trace is an execution
trace with data dependencies and ordering dependencies annoted to it. It also
replays fixed timestamp instruction fetch trace that is also generated by the
elastic trace probe.

The TraceCPU inherits from BaseCPU as a result of which some methods need
to be defined. It has two port subclasses inherited from MasterPort for
instruction and data ports. It issues the memory requests deducing the
timing from the trace and without performing real execution of micro-ops.
As soon as the last dependency for an instruction is complete,
its computational delay, also provided in the input trace is added. The
dependency-free nodes are maintained in a list, called 'ReadyList',
ordered by ready time. Instructions which depend on load stall until the
responses for read requests are received thus achieving elastic replay. If
the dependency is not found when adding a new node, it is assumed complete.
Thus, if this node is found to be completely dependency-free its issue time is
calculated and it is added to the ready list immediately. This is encapsulated
in the subclass ElasticDataGen.

If ready nodes are issued in an unconstrained way there can be more nodes
outstanding which results in divergence in timing compared to the O3CPU.
Therefore, the Trace CPU also models hardware resources. A sub-class to model
hardware resources is added which contains the maximum sizes of load buffer,
store buffer and ROB. If resources are not available, the node is not issued.
The 'depFreeQueue' structure holds nodes that are pending issue.

Modeling the ROB size in the Trace CPU as a resource limitation is arguably the
most important parameter of all resources. The ROB occupancy is estimated using
the newly added field 'robNum'. We need to use ROB number as sequence number is
at times much higher due to squashing and trace replay is focused on correct
path modeling.

A map called 'inFlightNodes' is added to track nodes that are not only in
the readyList but also load nodes that are executed (and thus removed from
readyList) but are not complete. ReadyList handles what and when to execute
next node while the inFlightNodes is used for resource modelling. The oldest
ROB number is updated when any node occupies the ROB or when an entry in the
ROB is released. The ROB occupancy is equal to the difference in the ROB number
of the newly dependency-free node and the oldest ROB number in flight.

If no node dependends on a non load/store node then there is no reason to track
it in the dependency graph. We filter out such nodes but count them and add a
weight field to the subsequent node that we do include in the trace. The weight
field is used to model ROB occupancy during replay.

The depFreeQueue is chosen to be FIFO so that child nodes which are in
program order get pushed into it in that order and thus issued in the in
program order, like in the O3CPU. This is also why the dependents is made a
sequential container, std::set to std::vector. We only check head of the
depFreeQueue as nodes are issued in order and blocking on head models that
better than looping the entire queue. An alternative choice would be to inspect
top N pending nodes where N is the issue-width. This is left for future as the
timing correlation looks good as it is.

At the start of an execution event, first we attempt to issue such pending
nodes by checking if appropriate resources have become available. If yes, we
compute the execute tick with respect to the time then. Then we proceed to
complete nodes from the readyList.

When a read response is received, sometimes a dependency on it that was
supposed to be released when it was issued is still not released. This occurs
because the dependent gets added to the graph after the read was sent. So the
check is made less strict and the dependency is marked complete on read
response instead of insisting that it should have been removed on read sent.

There is a check for requests spanning two cache lines as this condition
triggers an assert fail in the L1 cache. If it does then truncate the size
to access only until the end of that line and ignore the remainder.
Strictly-ordered requests are skipped and the dependencies on such requests
are handled by simply marking them complete immediately.

The simulated seconds can be calculated as the difference between the
final_tick stat and the tickOffset stat. A CountedExitEvent that contains
a static int belonging to the Trace CPU class as a down counter is used to
implement multi Trace CPU simulation exit.

de4dc50e95 proto, probe: Add elastic trace probe to o3 cpu
The elastic trace is a type of probe listener and listens to probe points
in multiple stages of the O3CPU. The notify method is called on a probe
point typically when an instruction successfully progresses through that
stage.

As different listener methods mapped to the different probe points execute,
relevant information about the instruction, e.g. timestamps and register
accesses, are captured and stored in temporary InstExecInfo class objects.
When the instruction progresses through the commit stage, the timing and the
dependency information about the instruction is finalised and encapsulated in
a struct called TraceInfo. TraceInfo objects are collected in a list instead
of writing them out to the trace file one a time. This is required as the
trace is processed in chunks to evaluate order dependencies and computational
delay in case an instruction does not have any register dependencies. By this
we achieve a simpler algorithm during replay because every record in the
trace can be hooked onto a record in its past. The instruction dependency
trace is written out as a protobuf format file. A second trace containing
fetch requests at absolute timestamps is written to a separate protobuf
format file.

If the instruction is not executed then it is not added to the trace.
The code checks if the instruction had a fault, if it predicated
false and thus previous register values were restored or if it was a
load/store that did not have a request (e.g. when the size of the
request is zero). In all these cases the instruction is set as
executed by the Execute stage and is picked up by the commit probe
listener. But a request is not issued and registers are not written.
So practically, skipping these should not hurt the dependency modelling.

If squashing results in squashing younger instructions, it may happen that
the squash probe discards the inst and removes it from the temporary
store but execute stage deals with the instruction in the next cycle which
results in the execute probe seeing this inst as 'new' inst. A sequence
number of the last processed trace record is used to trap these cases and
not add to the temporary store.

The elastic instruction trace and fetch request trace can be read in and
played back by the TraceCPU.

eb19fc2976 probe: Add probe in Fetch, IEW, Rename and Commit
This patch adds probe points in Fetch, IEW, Rename and Commit stages as follows.

A probe point is added in the Fetch stage for probing when a fetch request is
sent. Notify is fired on the probe point when a request is sent succesfully in
the first attempt as well as on a retry attempt.

Probe points are added in the IEW stage when an instruction begins to execute
and when execution is complete. This points can be used for monitoring the
execution time of an instruction.

Probe points are added in the Rename stage to probe renaming of source and
destination registers and when there is squashing. These probe points can be
used to track register dependencies and remove when there is squashing.

A probe point for squashing is added in Commit to probe squashed instructions.

78275c9d2f dev: Rewrite PCI host functionality
The gem5's current PCI host functionality is very ad hoc. The current
implementations require PCI devices to be hooked up to the
configuration space via a separate configuration port. Devices query
the platform to get their config-space address range. Un-mapped parts
of the config space are intercepted using the XBar's default port
mechanism and a magic catch-all device (PciConfigAll).

This changeset redesigns the PCI host functionality to improve code
reuse and make config-space and interrupt mapping more
transparent. Existing platform code has been updated to use the new
PCI host and configured to stay backwards compatible (i.e., no
guest-side visible changes). The current implementation does not
expose any new functionality, but it can easily be extended with
features such as automatic interrupt mapping.

PCI devices now register themselves with a PCI host controller. The
host controller interface is defined in the abstract base class
PciHost. Registration is done by PciHost::registerDevice() which takes
the device, its bus position (bus/dev/func tuple), and its interrupt
pin (INTA-INTC) as a parameter. The registration interface returns a
PciHost::DeviceInterface that the PCI device can use to query memory
mappings and signal interrupts.

The host device manages the entire PCI configuration space. Accesses
to devices decoded into the devices bus position and then forwarded to
the correct device.

Basic PCI host functionality is implemented in the GenericPciHost base
class. Most platforms can use this class as a basic PCI controller. It
provides the following functionality:

  * Configurable configuration space decoding. The number of bits
    dedicated to a device is a prameter, making it possible to support
    both CAM, ECAM, and legacy mappings.

  * Basic interrupt mapping using the interruptLine value from a
    device's configuration space. This behavior is the same as in the
    old implementation. More advanced controllers can override the
    interrupt mapping method to dynamically assign host interrupts to
    PCI devices.

  * Simple (base + addr) remapping from the PCI bus's address space to
    physical addresses for PIO, memory, and DMA.

abfb997800 cpu: fix unitialized variable which may cause assertion failure
The assert in lsq_unit_impl.hh line 963 needs pktPending to be initialized to
NULL (I got the assertion failure several times without the fix).

e746231682 util: term: drop CC from Makefile
With clang there are systems without gcc being installed anymore and we should
not rely on that.  This patch drops CC so that system's default compiler is
invoked.

0707f4ee63 util: DrainManager/Checkpoint changes in SystemC coupling
Due to changes in Drain Manager, the lastest systemc coupling doesn't work. The
code for handling Checkpoint has been modified and it is now compatiable with
new drain manager.

Testing is being done on systemC coupling. It needs more testing to verify
checkpointing feature.

1a34e23603 sim: Get rid of the non-const serialize() method
The last SimObject using the legacy serialize API with non-const
methods has now been transitioned to the new API. This changeset
removes the serializeOld() methods from the serialization base class
as they are no longer used.

6a05179e13 arm, config: Automatically discover available platforms
Add support for automatically discover available platforms. The
Python-side uses functionality similar to what we use when
auto-detecting available CPU models. The machine IDs have been updated
to match the platform configurations. If there isn't a matching
machine ID, the configuration scripts default to -1 which Linux uses
for device tree only platforms.

b3f7a62876 dev, arm: Disable R/B swap in HDLCD by default
The HDLCD model implements a workaround that swaps the red and blue
channels. This works around an issue in certain old kernels. The new
driver doesn't seem to have this behavior, so disable the workaround
by default and enable it in the affected platforms.

4aeaaf7985 dev, arm: Split MCC and DCC subsystems
Devices behind the Versatile Express configuration controllers are
currently all lumped into one SimObject. This will make DTB generation
challenging since the DTB assumes them to be in different parts of the
hierarchy. It also makes it hard to model other CoreTiles without also
replicating devices from the motherboard.

This changeset splits the VExpressCoreTileCtrl into two subsystems:
VExpressMCC for all motherboard-related devices and CoreTile2A15DCC
for Core Tile specific devices.

daa53da594 sim: Add support for generating back traces on errors
Add functionality to generate a back trace if gem5 crashes (SIGABRT or
SIGSEGV). The current implementation uses glibc's stack traversal
support if available and stubs out the call to print_backtrace()
otherwise.

a1aeff27ce arm: Add support for automatic boot loader selection
Add support for automatically selecting a boot loader that matches the
guest system's kernel. Instead of accepting a single boot loader, the
ArmSystem class now accepts a vector of boot loaders. When
initializing a system, the we now look for the first boot loader with
an architecture that matches the kernel.

This changeset makes it possible to use the same system for both
64-bit and 32-bit kernels.
