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.

SequencerMsg is autogenerated by slicc scripts and the MessageSizeType is
initialized to the max enume value by default. The DMASequencer pushes this
message to the mandatory queue and since the MessageSizeType is unitialized,
string_to_MessageSizeType() function used by traces to print the message fails
with a panic. This patch avoids this problem by initializing MessageSizeType
of SequencerMsg to Request_Control.
fixes to appease clang++. tested on:
Ubuntu clang version 3.5.0-4ubuntu2~trusty2
(tags/RELEASE_350/final) (based on LLVM 3.5.0)
Ubuntu clang version 3.6.0-2ubuntu1~trusty1
(tags/RELEASE_360/final) (based on LLVM 3.6.0)
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.
DMA sequencers and protocols can currently only issue one DMA access at

Added power-down state transitions to the DRAM controller model.
Added per rank parameter, outstandingEvents, which tracks the number
of outstanding command events and is used to determine when the
controller should transition to a low power state.
The controller will only transition when there are no outstanding events
scheduled and the number of command entries for the given rank is 0.
The outstandingEvents parameter is incremented for every RD/WR burst,
PRE, and REF event scheduled. ACT is implicitly covered by RD/WR
since burst will always issue and complete after a required ACT.
The parameter is decremented when the event is serviced (completed).
The controller will automatically transition to ACT power down,
PRE power down, or SREF.
Transition to ACT power down state scheduled from:
1) The RespondEvent, where read data is received from the memory.
ACT power-down entry will be scheduled when one or more banks is
open, all commands for the rank have completed (no more commands
scheduled), and there are no commands in queue for the rank
Transition to PRE power down scheduled from:
1) respondEvent, when all banks are closed, all commands have
completed, and there are no commands in queue for the rank
2) prechargeEvent when all banks are closed, all commands have
completed, and there are no commands in queue for the rank
3) refreshEvent, after the refresh is complete when the previous
state was ACT power-down
4) refreshEvent, after the refresh is complete when the previous
state was PRE power-down and there are commands in the queue.
Transition to SREF will be scheduled from:
1) refreshEvent, after the refresh is completes when the previous
state was PRE power-down with no commands in queue
Power-down exit commands are scheduled from:
1) The refreshEvent, prior to issuing a refresh
2) doDRAMAccess, to wake-up the rank for RD/WR command issue.
Self-refresh exit commands are scheduled from:
1) The next request event, when the queue has commands for the rank
in the readQueue or there are commands for the rank in the
writeQueue and the bus state is WRITE.

This patch adds port direction names to the links during topology
creation, which can be used for better printed names for the links
or for users to code up their own adaptive routing algorithms.
It also adds support for every router to have an independent latency
value to support heterogeneous topologies with the subsequent
garnet2.0 patch.
This patch makes the internal links within the network topology
unidirectional, thus allowing any deadlock-free routing algorithms to
be specified from the topology itself using weights.
This patch also renames Mesh.py and MeshDirCorners.py to
Mesh_XY.py and MeshDirCorners_XY.py (Mesh with XY routing).
It also adds a Mesh_westfirst.py and CrossbarGarnet.py topologies.

to run the garnet network in a standalone manner, and feed standard synthetic
traffic patterns through it.

This patch improves the snoop filter allocation decisions by not only
looking at whether a port is snooping or not, but also if the packet
actually came from a cache. The issue with only looking at isSnooping
is that the CPU ports, for example, are snooping, but not actually
caching. Previously we ended up incorrectly allocating entries in
systems without caches (such as the atomic and timing quick
regressions). Eventually these misguided allocations caused the snoop
filter to panic due to an excessive size.
On the request path we now include the fromCache check on the packet
itself, and for responses we check if we actually have a snoop-filter
entry.

This patch takes yet another step in maintaining the clusivity, in
that it allows a mostly-inclusive cache to hold on to blocks even when
responding to a ReadExReq or UpgradeReq. Previously the cache simply
invalidated these blocks, but there is no strict need to do so.
The most important part of this patch is that we simply mark the block
clean when satisfying the upstream request where the cache is allowed
to keep the block. The only tricky part of the patch is in the memory
management of deferred snoops, where we need to distinguish the cases
where only the packet was copied (we expected to respond), and the
cases where we created an entirely new packet and request (we kept it
only to replay later).
The code in satisfyRequest is definitely ready for some refactoring
after this.

This patch changes how the mostly exclusive policy is enforced to

actual invalidation due to the clusivity enforcement is moved outside
the hit handling, to a separate method maintainClusivity. For the
timing mode that means we can deal with all MSHR targets before taking
any action and possibly dropping the block. The method
satisfyCpuSideRequest is also renamed satisfyRequest as part of this
change (since we only ever see requests from the cpu-side port).

2- It creates 4-HMC crossbars and attaches 16 vault controllers with it.
This will connect vaults to serial links

Patch originally provided by Akash Bagdia at ARM Ltd.
This implements SwapReq for Ruby memory.
A SwapReq should be treated like a write, except that the response
packet contains the overwritten data.
Note that, in particular, the conditional checking for isStore/isLoad
needs to be reversed, as a SwapReq is both.
This patch fixes a memory leak where deferred snoop packets never got
deallocated. On the call to MSHR::handleSnoop these snoops were
treated as if a response will be sent, as the MSHR was
pendingModified. Consequently, a copy of the packet was created and
added to the MSHR targets. However, an preceeding target to the same
MSHR, originally from a CPU, was serviced before the snoop, and caused
the block to be invalidated. This happens for ReadExReq and
UpgradeReq.
Note that the original snoop will receive a response, just not from
the cache in question, but instead from the cache upstream that issued
the ReadExReq or UpgradeReq.
