cpu/base_dyn_inst.hh: Remove snoop function (did not mean to commit it). cpu/ozone/back_end_impl.hh: Set instruction as having its result ready, not completed. cpu/ozone/cpu.hh: Fixes for store conditionals. Use an additional lock addr list to make sure that the access is valid. I don't know if this is fully necessary, but it gives me a peace of mind (at some performance cost). Make sure to schedule for cycles(1) and not just 1 cycle in the future as tick = 1ps. Also support the new Checker. cpu/ozone/cpu_builder.cc: Add parameter for maxOutstandingMemOps so it can be set through the config. Also add in the checker. Right now it's a BaseCPU simobject, but that may change in the future. cpu/ozone/cpu_impl.hh: Add support for the checker. For now there's a dynamic cast to convert the simobject passed back from the builder to the proper Checker type. It's ugly, but only happens at startup, and is probably a justified use of dynamic cast. Support switching out/taking over from other CPUs. Correct indexing problem for float registers. cpu/ozone/dyn_inst.hh: Add ability for instructions to wait on memory instructions in addition to source register instructions. This is needed for memory dependence predictors and memory barriers. cpu/ozone/dyn_inst_impl.hh: Support waiting on memory operations. Use "resultReady" to differentiate an instruction having its registers produced vs being totally completed. cpu/ozone/front_end.hh: Support switching out. Also record if an interrupt is pending. cpu/ozone/front_end_impl.hh: Support switching out. Also support stalling the front end if an interrupt is pending. cpu/ozone/lw_back_end.hh: Add checker in. Support switching out. Support memory barriers. cpu/ozone/lw_back_end_impl.hh: Lots of changes to get things to work right. Faults, traps, interrupts all wait until all stores have written back (important). Memory barriers are supported, as is the general ability for instructions to be dependent on other memory instructions. cpu/ozone/lw_lsq.hh: Support switching out. Also use store writeback events in all cases, not just dcache misses. cpu/ozone/lw_lsq_impl.hh: Support switching out. Also use store writeback events in all cases, not just dcache misses. Support the checker CPU. Marks instructions as completed once the functional access is done (which has to be done for the checker to be able to verify results). cpu/ozone/simple_params.hh: Add max outstanding mem ops parameter. python/m5/objects/OzoneCPU.py: Add max outstanding mem ops, checker. --HG-- extra : convert_revision : f4d408e1bb1f25836a097b6abe3856111e950c59 |

RELEASE_NOTES | ||
SConscript |
This is release m5_1.1 of the M5 simulator. This file contains brief "getting started" instructions. For more information, see http://m5.eecs.umich.edu. If you have questions, please send mail to m5sim-users@lists.sourceforge.net. WHAT'S INCLUDED (AND NOT) ------------------------- The basic source release includes these subdirectories: - m5: the simulator itself - m5-test: regression tests - ext: less-common external packages needed to build m5 - alpha-system: source for Alpha console and PALcode To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled console, PALcode, and kernel binaries and one or more disk images. These files are collected in a separate archive, m5_system_1.1.tar.bz2. This file is included on the CD release, or you can download it separately from Sourceforge. M5 supports Linux 2.4/2.6, FreeBSD, and the proprietary Compaq/HP Tru64 version of Unix. We are able to distribute Linux and FreeBSD bootdisks, but we are unable to distribute bootable disk images of Tru64 Unix. If you have a Tru64 license and are interested in obtaining disk images, contact us at m5-dev@eecs.umich.edu. The CD release includes a few extra goodies, such as a tar file containing doxygen-generated HTML documentation (html-docs.tar.gz), a set of Linux source patches (linux_m5-2.6.8.1.diff), and the scons program needed to build M5. If you do not have the CD, the same HTML documentation is available online at http://m5.eecs.umich.edu/docs, the Linux source patches are available at http://m5.eecs.umich.edu/dist/linux_m5-2.6.8.1.diff, and the scons program is available from http://www.scons.org. WHAT'S NEEDED ------------- - GCC version 3.3 or newer - Python 2.3 or newer - SCons 0.96.1 or newer (see http://www.scons.org) WHAT'S RECOMMENDED ------------------ - MySQL (for statistics complex statistics storage/retrieval) - Python-MysqlDB (for statistics analysis) GETTING STARTED --------------- There are two different build targets and three optimizations levels: Target: ------- ALPHA_SE - Syscall emulation simulation ALPHA_FS - Full system simulation Optimization: ------------- m5.debug - debug version of the code with tracing and without optimization m5.opt - optimized version of code with tracing m5.fast - optimized version of the code without tracing and asserts Different targets are built in different subdirectories of m5/build. Binaries with the same target but different optimization levels share the same directory. Note that you can build m5 in any directory you choose;p just configure the target directory using the 'mkbuilddir' script in m5/build. The following steps will build and test the simulator. The variable "$top" refers to the top directory where you've unpacked the files, i.e., the one containing the m5, m5-test, and ext directories. If you have a multiprocessor system, you should give scons a "-j N" argument (like make) to run N jobs in parallel. To build and test the syscall-emulation simulator: cd $top/m5/build scons ALPHA_SE/test/opt/quick This process takes under 10 minutes on a dual 3GHz Xeon system (using the '-j 4' option). To build and test the full-system simulator: 1. Unpack the full-system binaries from m5_system_1.1.tar.bz2. (See above for directions on obtaining this file if you don't have it.) This package includes disk images and kernel, palcode, and console binaries for Linux and FreeBSD. 2. Edit the SYSTEMDIR search path in $top/m5-test/SysPaths.py to include the path to your local copy of the binaries. 3. In $top/m5/build, run "scons ALPHA_FS/test/opt/quick". This process also takes under 10 minutes on a dual 3GHz Xeon system (again using the '-j 4' option).
