This patch adds support for interleaving bits for the address
ranges. What was previously just a start and end address, now has an
additional three fields, for the high bit, and number of bits to use
for interleaving, and a match value to compare against. If the number
of interleaving bits is set to zero it is effectively disabled.
A number of convenience functions are added to the range to enquire
about the interleaving, its granularity and the number of stripes it
is part of.
This patch cleans up the AddrRangeMap in preparation for the addition
of interleaving by removing unused code. The non-const editions of
find are never used, and hence the duplication is not needed.
This patch makes the start and end address private in a move to
prevent direct manipulation and matching of ranges based on these
fields. This is done so that a transition to ranges with interleaving
support is possible.
As a result of hiding the start and end, a number of member functions
are needed to perform the comparisons and manipulations that
previously took place directly on the members. An accessor function is
provided for the start address, and a function is added to test if an
address is within a range. As a result of the latter the != and ==
operator is also removed in favour of the member function. A member
function that returns a string representation is also created to allow
debug printing.
In general, this patch does not add any functionality, but it does
take us closer to a situation where interleaving (and more cleverness)
can be added under the bonnet without exposing it to the user. More on
that in a later patch.
This patch takes the final plunge and transitions from the templated
Range class to the more specific AddrRange. In doing so it changes the
obvious Range<Addr> to AddrRange, and also bumps the range_map to be
AddrRangeMap.
In addition to the obvious changes, including the removal of redundant
includes, this patch also does some house keeping in preparing for the
introduction of address interleaving support in the ranges. The Range
class is also stripped of all the functionality that is never used.
