5 years agoruby: Fix garnet's round robin arbitration for vc selection

ruby: Fix garnet's round robin arbitration for vc selection

Garnet utilizes round robin policy to select a VC for
transmission ar Network Interface and Routers. The current logic
for round robin is only fair if all the virtual networks are active
at a given router. If the router or network interface is not
receiving traffic in from any vnet then the priority is always taken
up by the next vnet in numerically (or loops back to 0).

This fix changes the way we perform round robin arbitration. When
a VC is selected in a cycle, the round robin pointer is set to the VC
next to it and is iterated from there on. If any VC does not have a
flit in a given cycle, it will lose its turn until the next round.
At maximum traffic this will model round robin correctly even if
a certain VNET is not active at that unit.

scons: Add a convenience method to set RPATH for local libraries.

When linking in a dynamic library which is in the gem5 build directory,
it's useful to set RPATH so that you don't have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH
when you run gem5 so that the dynamic linker can find it.

Since it's tricky and not entirely obvious how to set up those paths
correctly, this change adds a small convenience function which does
that for you. It also handles situations where the same dynamic
library may be linked into different binaries in different directories
which each need a different relative RPATH. It does that by letting the
environment for each binary set a construction variable which says
how to get from that particular binary back to the build directory.
This helper method then sets RPATH to start at $ORIGIN (the binary),
to follow that relative path to the variant build directory, and then
the per-library but not per-binary path to the library's directory.

This change also adds the -z origin linker flag which makes the linker
handle $ORIGIN properly.

Tuan Ta [Tue, 13 Feb 2018 04:13:34 +0000 (23:13 -0500)]
riscv: fix AMO, LR and SC instructions

(1) Atomic Memory Operation (AMO)

This patch changes how RISC-V AMO instructions are implemented. For each
AMO, instead of issuing a locking load and an unlocking store request to
downstream memory system, this patch issues a single memory request that
contains a corresponding AtomicOpFunctor to the memory system. Once the
memory system receives the request, the atomic operation is executed in
one single step.

This patch also changes how AMO instructions handle acquire and release
flags in AMOs (e.g., amoadd.aq and amoadd.rl). If an AMO is associated
with an acquire flag, a memory fence is inserted after the AMO completes
as a micro-op. If an AMO is associated with a release flag, another
memory fence is inserted before the AMO executes. If both flags are
specified, the AMO is broken down into a sequence of 3 micro-ops:
mem fence -> atomic RMW -> mem fence. This change makes this AMO
implementation comply to the release consistency model.

(2) Load-Reserved (LR) and Store-Conditional (SC)

Addresses locked by LR instructions are tracked in a stack data
structure. LR instruction pushes its target address to the stack, and SC
instruction pops the top address from the stack. As specified by RISC-V
ISA, a SC fails if its target address does not match with the most recent
LR.

Previously, there was a single stack for all hardware thread contexts.
A shared stack between thread contexts can lead to a infinite sequence
of failed SCs if LRs from other threads keep pushing new addresses to
this stack.

This patch gives each context its private stack to address the problem.

This patch also adds extra memory fence micro-ops to lr/sc to guarantee
a correct execution order of memory instructions with respect to release
consistency model.

cpu: support atomic memory request type with AtomicOpFunctor

This patch enables all 4 CPU models (AtomicSimpleCPU, TimingSimpleCPU,
MinorCPU and DerivO3CPU) to issue atomic memory (AMO) requests to memory
system.

Atomic memory instruction is treated as a special store instruction in
all CPU models.

In simple CPUs, an AMO request with an associated AtomicOpFunctor is
simply sent to L1 dcache.

In MinorCPU, an AMO request bypasses store buffer and waits for any
conflicting store request(s) currently in the store buffer to retire
before the AMO request is sent to the cache. AMO requests are not buffered
in the store buffer, so their effects appear immediately in the cache.

In DerivO3CPU, an AMO request is inserted in the store buffer so that it
is delivered to the cache only after all previous stores are issued to
the cache. Data forwarding between between an outstanding AMO in the
store buffer and a subsequent load is not allowed since the AMO request
does not hold valid data until it's executed in the cache.

This implementation assumes that a target ISA implementation must insert
enough memory fences as micro-ops around an atomic instruction to
enforce a correct order of memory instructions with respect to its
memory consistency model. Without extra memory fences, this implementation
can allow AMOs and other memory instructions that do not conflict
(i.e., not target the same address) to reorder.

This implementation also assumes that atomic instructions execute within
a cache line boundary since the cache for now is not able to execute an
operation on two different cache lines in one single step. Therefore,
ISAs like x86 that require multi-cache-line atomic instructions need to
either use a pair of locking load and unlocking store or change the
cache implementation to guarantee the atomicity of an atomic
instruction.
