This patch updates the stats to reflect the: 1) addition of the
internal queue in SimpleMemory, 2) moving of the memory class outside
FSConfig, 3) fixing up of the 2D vector printing format, 4) specifying
burst size and interface width for the DRAM instead of relying on
cache-line size, 5) performing merging in the DRAM controller write
buffer, and 6) fixing how idle cycles are counted in the atomic and
timing CPU models.
The main reason for bundling them up is to minimise the changeset
size.
This patch removes the sparse histogram total from the CommMonitor
stats. It also bumps the stats after the unit fixes in the atomic
cache access. Lastly, it updates the stats to match the new port
ordering. All numbers are the same, and the only thing that changes is
which master corresponds to what port index.
This patch updates the stats to reflect the addition of the bus stats,
and changes to the bus layers. In addition it updates the stats to
match the addition of the static pipeline latency of the memory
conotroller and the addition of a stat tracking the bytes per
activate.
This patch adds support for reading input traces encoded using
protobuf according to what is done in the CommMonitor.
A follow-up patch adds a Python script that can be used to convert the
previously used ASCII traces to protobuf equivalents. The appropriate
regression input is updated as part of this patch.
This patch changes the traffic generator period such that it does not
completely saturate the DRAM controller and create an ever-growing
backlog in the queued port.
A separate patch updates the stats.
This patch adds a basic regression for the traffic generator. The
regression also serves as an example of the file formats used. More
complex regressions that make use of a DRAM controller model will
follow shortly.
