First of five patches adding RISC-V to GEM5. This patch introduces the base 64-bit ISA (RV64I) in src/arch/riscv for use with syscall emulation. The multiply, floating point, and atomic memory instructions will be added in additional patches, as well as support for more detailed CPU models. The loader is also modified to be able to parse RISC-V ELF files, and a "Hello world\!" example for RISC-V is added to test-progs. Patch 2 will implement the multiply extension, RV64M; patch 3 will implement the floating point (single- and double-precision) extensions, RV64FD; patch 4 will implement the atomic memory instructions, RV64A, and patch 5 will add support for timing, minor, and detailed CPU models that is missing from the first four patches (such as handling locked memory). [Removed several unused parameters and imports from RiscvInterrupts.py, RiscvISA.py, and RiscvSystem.py.] [Fixed copyright information in RISC-V files copied from elsewhere that had ARM licenses attached.] [Reorganized instruction definitions in decoder.isa so that they are sorted by opcode in preparation for the addition of ISA extensions M, A, F, D.] [Fixed formatting of several files, removed some variables and instructions that were missed when moving them to other patches, fixed RISC-V Foundation copyright attribution, and fixed history of files copied from other architectures using hg copy.] [Fixed indentation of switch cases in isa.cc.] [Reorganized syscall descriptions in linux/process.cc to remove large number of repeated unimplemented system calls and added implmementations to functions that have received them since it process.cc was first created.] [Fixed spacing for some copyright attributions.] [Replaced the rest of the file copies using hg copy.] [Fixed style check errors and corrected unaligned memory accesses.] [Fix some minor formatting mistakes.] Signed-off by: Alec Roelke Signed-off by: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com> |

This is the gem5 simulator. The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/Introduction, and for more information about building the simulator and getting started please see http://www.gem5.org/Documentation and http://www.gem5.org/Tutorials. To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang, Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4, and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/Dependencies for more details concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools. Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ALPHA, ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture. See http://www.gem5.org/Build_System for more details and options. With the simulator built, have a look at http://www.gem5.org/Running_gem5 for more information on how to use gem5. The basic source release includes these subdirectories: - configs: example simulation configuration scripts - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5 - src: source code of the gem5 simulator - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems - tests: regression tests - util: useful utility programs and files To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware (console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk images. Please see the gem5 download page for these items at http://www.gem5.org/Download If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
