This patch adds support for specifying multi-channel memory
configurations on the command line, e.g. 'se/fs.py
--mem-type=ddr3_1600_x64 --mem-channels=4'. To enable this, it
enhances the functionality of MemConfig and moves the existing
makeMultiChannel class method from SimpleDRAM to the support scripts.
The se/fs.py example scripts are updated to make use of the new
feature.
This patch changes the class names of the variuos DRAM configurations
to better reflect what memory they are based on. The speed and
interface width is now part of the name, and also the alias that is
used to select them on the command line.
Some minor changes are done to the actual parameters, to better
reflect the named configurations. As a result of these changes the
regressions change slightly and the stats will be bumped in a separate
patch.
This patch adds a typical (leaning towards fast) LPDDR3 configuration
based on publically available data. As expected, it looks very similar
to the LPDDR2-S4 configuration, only with a slightly lower burst time.
This patch enables selection of the memory controller class through a
mem-type command-line option. Behind the scenes, this option is
treated much like the cpu-type, and a similar framework is used to
resolve the valid options, and translate the short-hand description to
a valid class.
The regression scripts are updated with a hardcoded memory class for
the moment. The best solution going forward is probably to get the
memory out of the makeSystem functions, but Ruby complicates things as
it does not connect the memory controller to the membus.
