branch prediction, and makes memory dependence work properly.
SConscript:
Added return address stack, tournament predictor.
cpu/base_cpu.cc:
Added debug break and print statements.
cpu/base_dyn_inst.cc:
cpu/base_dyn_inst.hh:
Comment out possibly unneeded variables.
cpu/beta_cpu/2bit_local_pred.cc:
2bit predictor no longer speculatively updates itself.
cpu/beta_cpu/alpha_dyn_inst.hh:
Comment formatting.
cpu/beta_cpu/alpha_full_cpu.hh:
Formatting
cpu/beta_cpu/alpha_full_cpu_builder.cc:
Added new parameters for branch predictors, and IQ parameters.
cpu/beta_cpu/alpha_full_cpu_impl.hh:
Register stats.
cpu/beta_cpu/alpha_params.hh:
Added parameters for IQ, branch predictors, and store sets.
cpu/beta_cpu/bpred_unit.cc:
Removed one class.
cpu/beta_cpu/bpred_unit.hh:
Add in RAS, stats. Changed branch predictor unit functionality
so that it holds a history of past branches so it can update, and also
hold a proper history of the RAS so it can be restored on branch
mispredicts.
cpu/beta_cpu/bpred_unit_impl.hh:
Added in stats, history of branches, RAS. Now bpred unit actually
modifies the instruction's predicted next PC.
cpu/beta_cpu/btb.cc:
Add in sanity checks.
cpu/beta_cpu/comm.hh:
Add in communication where needed, remove it where it's not.
cpu/beta_cpu/commit.hh:
cpu/beta_cpu/rename.hh:
cpu/beta_cpu/rename_impl.hh:
Add in stats.
cpu/beta_cpu/commit_impl.hh:
Stats, update what is sent back on branch mispredict.
cpu/beta_cpu/cpu_policy.hh:
Change the bpred unit being used.
cpu/beta_cpu/decode.hh:
cpu/beta_cpu/decode_impl.hh:
Stats.
cpu/beta_cpu/fetch.hh:
Stats, change squash so it can handle squashes from decode differently
than squashes from commit.
cpu/beta_cpu/fetch_impl.hh:
Add in stats. Change how a cache line is fetched. Update to work with
caches. Also have separate functions for different behavior if squash
is coming from decode vs commit.
cpu/beta_cpu/free_list.hh:
Remove some old comments.
cpu/beta_cpu/full_cpu.cc:
cpu/beta_cpu/full_cpu.hh:
Added function to remove instructions from back of instruction list
until a certain sequence number.
cpu/beta_cpu/iew.hh:
Stats, separate squashing behavior due to branches vs memory.
cpu/beta_cpu/iew_impl.hh:
Stats, separate squashing behavior for branches vs memory.
cpu/beta_cpu/inst_queue.cc:
Debug stuff
cpu/beta_cpu/inst_queue.hh:
Stats, change how mem dep unit works, debug stuff
cpu/beta_cpu/inst_queue_impl.hh:
Stats, change how mem dep unit works, debug stuff. Also add in
parameters that used to be hardcoded.
cpu/beta_cpu/mem_dep_unit.hh:
cpu/beta_cpu/mem_dep_unit_impl.hh:
Add in stats, change how memory dependence unit works. It now holds
the memory instructions that are waiting for their memory dependences
to resolve. It provides which instructions are ready directly to the
IQ.
cpu/beta_cpu/regfile.hh:
Fix up sanity checks.
cpu/beta_cpu/rename_map.cc:
Fix loop variable type.
cpu/beta_cpu/rob_impl.hh:
Remove intermediate DynInstPtr
cpu/beta_cpu/store_set.cc:
Add in debugging statements.
cpu/beta_cpu/store_set.hh:
Reorder function arguments to match the rest of the calls.

This is release m5_1.0_beta1 of the M5 simulator. This file contains brief "getting started" information and release notes. 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) ------------------------- Since you're reading this file, presumably you've managed to untar the distribution. The archive you've unpacked has three subdirectories: - m5: the simulator itself - m5-test: regression tests and scripts to run them - ext: less-common external packages needed to build m5 (currently ply and libelf) M5 is a capable, full-system simulator that current supports both Linux 2.4/2.6 and the proprietary Compaq/HP Tru64 version of Unix. We are able to distribute Linux 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. WHAT'S NEEDED ------------- -GCC(3.X) -Python(2.2.2+) WHAT'S RECOMMENDED ------------------ -MySQL (for statistics complex statistics storage/retrieval) -Python-MysqlDB (for statistics analysis) GETTING STARTED --------------- 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. There are three different build targets and three optimizations in each level: Target: ------- ALPHA - Syscall emulation simulation KERNEL - Linux full system simulation KERNEL_TLASER - Tru64 Unix 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 cd $top/m5/build scons TARGET/OPTLEVL # e.g. KERNEL/m5.opt, use -j N if you have a MP system cd $top/m5-test ./do-tests.pl -B ALPHA # test what you just built ./do-tests.pl -B KERNEL # test what you just built # wait for tests to run... # should end with "finished do-tests successfully!"
