From: Andreas Hansson Date: Wed, 3 Sep 2014 11:42:29 +0000 (-0400) Subject: mem: Add utility script to plot DRAM efficiency sweep X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=075640673963719b866e03b8ce311e221171fab6;p=gem5.git mem: Add utility script to plot DRAM efficiency sweep This patch adds basic functionality to quickly visualise the output from the DRAM efficiency script. There are some unfortunate hacks needed to communicate the needed information from one script to the other, and we fall back on (ab)using the simout to do this. As part of this patch we also trim the efficiency sweep to stop at 512 bytes as this should be sufficient for all forseeable DRAMs. --- diff --git a/configs/dram/sweep.py b/configs/dram/sweep.py index c1ee0ceca..9b7cfd35e 100644 --- a/configs/dram/sweep.py +++ b/configs/dram/sweep.py @@ -124,12 +124,16 @@ itt = system.mem_ctrls[0].tBURST.value * 1000000000000 # assume we start at 0 max_addr = mem_range.end +# use min of the page size and 512 bytes as that should be more than +# enough +max_stride = min(512, page_size) + # now we create the state by iterating over the stride size from burst -# size to min of the page size and 1 kB, and from using only a single -# bank up to the number of banks available +# size to the max stride, and from using only a single bank up to the +# number of banks available nxt_state = 0 for bank in range(1, nbr_banks + 1): - for stride_size in range(burst_size, min(1024, page_size) + 1, burst_size): + for stride_size in range(burst_size, max_stride + 1, burst_size): cfg_file.write("STATE %d %d DRAM 100 0 %d " "%d %d %d %d %d %d %d %d 1\n" % (nxt_state, period, max_addr, burst_size, itt, itt, 0, @@ -168,3 +172,6 @@ root.system.mem_mode = 'timing' m5.instantiate() m5.simulate(nxt_state * period) + +print "DRAM sweep with burst: %d, banks: %d, max stride: %d" % \ + (burst_size, nbr_banks, max_stride) diff --git a/util/dram_sweep_plot.py b/util/dram_sweep_plot.py new file mode 100755 index 000000000..a57de3d1c --- /dev/null +++ b/util/dram_sweep_plot.py @@ -0,0 +1,151 @@ +#!/usr/bin/env python + +# Copyright (c) 2014 ARM Limited +# All rights reserved +# +# The license below extends only to copyright in the software and shall +# not be construed as granting a license to any other intellectual +# property including but not limited to intellectual property relating +# to a hardware implementation of the functionality of the software +# licensed hereunder.
