Edit AlphaISA to support the inorder model. Mostly alternate constructor functions and also a few skeleton multithreaded support functions
* * *
Remove namespace from header file. Causes compiler issues that are hard to find
* * *
Separate the TLB from the CPU and allow it to live in the TLBUnit resource. Give CPU accessor functions for access and also bind at construction time
* * *
Expose memory access size and flags through instruction object
(temporarily memAccSize and memFlags to get TLB stuff working.)
Bogus calls to ChunkGenerator with negative size were triggering
a new assertion that was added there.
Also did a little renaming and cleanup in the process.
I did some of the flags and assertions wrong. Thanks to Brad Beckmann
for pointing this out. I should have run the opt regressions instead
of the fast. I also screwed up some of the logical functions in the Flags
class.
the primary identifier for a hardware context should be contextId(). The
concept of threads within a CPU remains, in the form of threadId() because
sometimes you need to know which context within a cpu to manipulate.
across the subclasses. generally make it so that member data is _cpuId and
accessor functions are cpuId(). The ID val comes from the python (default -1 if
none provided), and if it is -1, the index of cpuList will be given. this has
passed util/regress quick and se.py -n4 and fs.py -n4 as well as standard
switch.
Make them easier to express by only having the cxx_type parameter which
has the full namespace name, and drop the cxx_namespace thing.
Add support for multiple levels of namespace.
Even though we're not incorrect about operator precedence, let's add
some parens in some particularly confusing places to placate GCC 4.3
so that we don't have to turn the warning off. Agreed that this is a
bit of a pain for those users who get the order of operations correct,
but it is likely to prevent bugs in certain cases.
We should always refer to the specific ISA in that arch directory.
This is especially necessary if we're ever going to make it to the
point where we actually have heterogeneous systems.
A whole bunch of stuff has been converted to use the new params stuff, but
the CPU wasn't one of them. While we're at it, make some things a bit
more stylish. Most of the work was done by Gabe, I just cleaned stuff up
a bit more at the end.
This appears to work, but I don't want to commit it until it gets tested a lot more.
I haven't deleted the functionality in this patch that will come later, but one question
is how to enforce encourage objects that call getVirtPort() to not cache the virtual port
since if the CPU changes out from under them it will be worse than useless. Perhaps a null
function like delVirtPort() is still useful in that case.
