Previously when an InvalidateReq snooped a cache with a dirty block or
a pending modified MSHR, it would invalidate the block or set the
postInv flag. The cache would not send an InvalidateResp. though,
causing memory order violations. This patches changes this behavior,
making the cache with the dirty block or pending modified MSHR the
ordering point.

Previously an MSHR with one or more invalidating targets would first
service all targets in the MSHR TargetList and then invalidate the
block. As a result any service snooping targets would lookup in the
cache and incorrectly find the block. This patch forces the
invalidation to happen when the first invalidating target is
encountered.

This patch changes an assertion that previously assumed that a non
invalidating snoop request should never be serviced by an
InvalidateReq MSHR. The MSHR serves as the ordering point for the
snooping packet. When the InvalidateResp reaches the cache the
snooping packet snoops the caches above to find the requested
block. One or more of the caches above will have the block since
earlier it has seen a WriteLineReq.

When the snoopFilter receives a response, it updates its state using
the hasSharers flag (indicates whether there are more than one copies
of the block in the caches above). The hasSharers flag of the packet
was previously populated when the request was traversing and snooping
the caches looking for the block.
1) When the response is coming from the memory-side port, its order
with respect to other responses is not necessarily preserved (e.g., a
request that arrived second to the xbar can get its response first). As
a result the snoopFilter might process responses out of order updating
its residency information using the non valid hasSharers flag which was
populated much earlier.
2) When the response is from an on-chip, the MSHRs preserve a well
defined order and the hasSharers flag should contain valid
information.
This patch changes the snoopFilter by avoiding the hasSharers flag
when the response is from the memory-side port.

A response to a ReadReq can either be a ReadResp or a
ReadRespWithInvalidate. As we add targets to an MSHR for a ReadReq we
assume that the response will be a ReadResp. When the response is
invalidating (ReadRespWithInvalidate) servicing more than one targets
can potentially violate the memory ordering. This change fixes the way
we handle a ReadRespWithInvalidate. When a cache receives a
ReadRespWithInvalidate we service only the first FromCPU target and
all the FromSnoop targets from the MSHR target list. The rest of the
FromCPU targets are deferred and serviced by a new request.

HSA functions calls are still not supported properly with HSAIL, but
the recent AMP runtime modifications rely on being able to parse the
BRIG/HSAIL files that are extracted from the application binaries.
We need to parse the function call HSAIL definitions, but we do not
actually need to make the function calls.
The reason that this happens is that HCC appends a set of routines
to every HSAIL binary that it creates. These extra, unnecessary
routines exist in the HCC source as a file; this file is cat'd onto
everything that the compiler outputs before being assembled into the
application's binary. HCC does this because it might call these helper
functions. However, it doesn't actually appear to do so in the AMP
codes so we just parse these functions with the HSAIL parser and
then ignore them.
it's possible for the offset provided to an HSAIL mem inst to be a negative
value, however the variable we use to hold the offset is an unsigned type.
this can lead to excessively large offset values when the offset is negative,
which will almost certainly cause the access to go out of bounds.
In MessageBuffer the m_not_avail_count member is incremented but not used.
This causes an overflow reported by ASAN. This patch changes from an int to
Stats::Scalar, since the count is useful in debugging finite MessageBuffers.
This patch is the eighth patch in a series adding RISC-V to gem5, and
third of the bonus patches to the original series of five. It adds some
regression tests to RISC-V.
Regression tests included:
- se/00.hello
- se/02.insttest (split into several binaries which are not included due
to large size)
The tests added to 00.insttest will need to be build manually; to
facilitate this, a Makefile is included. The required toolchain and
compiler (riscv64-unknown-elf-gcc) can be built from the riscv-tools
GitHub repository at https://github.com/riscv/riscv-tools.
Note that because EBREAK only makes sense when gdb is running or while in
FS mode, it is not included in the linux-rv64i insttest. ERET is not
included because it does not make sense in SE mode and, in fact, causes
a panic by design.
Note also that not every system call is tested in linux-rv64i; of the ones
defined in linux/process.hh, some have been given numbers but not
definitions for the toolchain, or are merely stubs that always return 0. Of
the ones that do work properly, only a subset are tested due to similar
functionality.

RISC-V makes use of load-reserved and store-conditional instructions to
enable creation of lock-free concurrent data manipulation as well as
ACQUIRE and RELEASE semantics for memory ordering of LR, SC, and AMO
instructions (the latter of which do not follow LR/SC semantics). This
patch is a correction to patch 4, which added these instructions to the
implementation of RISC-V. It modifies locked_mem.hh and the
implementations of lr.w, sc.w, lr.d, and sc.d to apply the proper gem5
flags and return the proper values.
An important difference between gem5's LLSC semantics and RISC-V's LR/SC
ones, beyond the name, is that gem5 uses 0 to indicate failure and 1 to
indicate success, while RISC-V is the opposite. Strictly speaking, RISC-V
uses 0 to indicate success and nonzero to indicate failure where the
value would indicate the error, but currently only 1 is reserved as a
failure code by the ISA reference.
This is the seventh patch in the series which originally consisted of five
patches that added the RISC-V ISA to gem5. The original five patches added
all of the instructions and added support for more detailed CPU models and
the sixth patch corrected the implementations of Linux constants and
structs. There will be an eighth patch that adds some regression tests
for the instructions.

This is an add-on patch for the original series that implemented RISC-V
that improves the implementation of Linux emulation for SE mode. Basically
it cleans up linux/linux.hh by removing constants that haven't been
defined for the RISC-V Linux proxy kernel and rearranging the stat
struct so it aligns with RISC-V's implementation of it. It also adds
placeholders for system calls that have been given numbers in RISC-V
but haven't been given implementations yet. These system calls are
as follows:
- readlinkat
- sigprocmask
- ioctl
- clock_gettime
- getrusage
- getrlimit

Fourth of five patches adding RISC-V to GEM5. This patch adds the RV64A
extension, which includes atomic memory instructions. These instructions
atomically read a value from memory, modify it with a value contained in a
source register, and store the original memory value in the destination
register and modified value back into memory. Because this requires two
memory accesses and GEM5 does not support two timing memory accesses in
a single instruction, each of these instructions is split into two micro-
ops: A "load" micro-op, which reads the memory, and a "store" micro-op,
which modifies and writes it back. Each atomic memory instruction also has
two bits that acquire and release a lock on its memory location.
Additionally, there are atomic load and store instructions that only either
load or store, but not both, and can acquire or release memory locks.
Note that because the current implementation of RISC-V only supports one
core and one thread, it doesn't make sense to make use of AMO instructions.
However, they do form a standard extension of the RISC-V ISA, so they are
included mostly as a placeholder for when multithreaded execution is
implemented. As a result, any tests for their correctness in a future
patch may be abbreviated.
Patch 1 introduced RISC-V and implemented the base instruction set, RV64I;
patch 2 implemented the integer multiply extension, RV64M; and patch 3
implemented the single- and double-precision floating point extensions,

If the cache access mode is parallel, i.e. "sequential_access" parameter
is set to "False", tags and data are accessed in parallel. Therefore,
the hit_latency is the maximum latency between tag_latency and
data_latency. On the other hand, if the cache access mode is
sequential, i.e. "sequential_access" parameter is set to "True",
tags and data are accessed sequentially. Therefore, the hit_latency
is the sum of tag_latency plus data_latency.

the fixes address the following five issues:
1) the exec continuations in gpu_static_inst.hh were marked
as protected when they should be public. here we mark
them as public
2) the Abs instruction uses std::abs() in its execute method.
because Abs is templated, it can also operate on U32 and U64,
types, which cause Abs::execute() to pass uint32_t and uint64_t
types to std::abs() respectively. this triggers a warning
because std::abs() has no effect in this case. to rememdy this
we add template specialization for the execute() method of Abs
when its template paramter is U32 or U64.
3) Some potocols that utilize the code in cprintf.hh were missing
includes to BoolVec.hh, which defines operator<< for the BoolVec
type. This would cause issues when the generated code would try
to pass a BoolVec type to a method in cprintf.hh that used
operator<< on an instance of a BoolVec.
4) Surprise, clang doesn't like it when you clobber all the bits
in a newly allocated object. I.e., this code:
tlb = new GpuTlbEntry\[size\];
std::memset(tlb, 0, sizeof(GpuTlbEntry) \* size);
Let's use std::vector to track the TLB entries in the GpuTlb now...
5) There were a few variables used only in DPRINTFs, so we mark them
with M5_VAR_USED.
This patch adds the ability for an application to request dist-gem5 to begin/
end synchronization using an m5 op. When toggling on sync, all nodes agree
on the next sync point based on the maximum of all nodes' ticks. CPUs are
suspended until the sync point to avoid sending network messages until sync has
been enabled. Toggling off sync acts like a global execution barrier, where
all CPUs are disabled until every node reaches the toggle off point. This
avoids tricky situations such as one node hitting a toggle off followed by a
toggle on before the other nodes hit the first toggle off.
