6 years agosystemc: Ensure resets and edges are notified when signaling a change.
Gabe Black [Wed, 5 Dec 2018 00:17:30 +0000 (16:17 -0800)]
systemc: Ensure resets and edges are notified when signaling a change.

Boolean sc_buffers (either pure bool or sc_dt::sc_logic) should signal
positive and negative edges and resets even when their value doesn't
change, unlike sc_signals. The spec doesn't actually say that and just
mentions the value changed event, but it may have been implied that the
other types of events also happen, they just made special mention of
the value change event.

This change moves some code around a bit so that when _signalChange()
is called, if the underlying type is a boolean signal, it will
automatically notify the appropriate edge event and signal any reset.
Putting the functionality in _signalChange instead of delegating it to
the sc_buffer lets us have a single template for sc_buffer and makes
the base class template specialization handle whether the edge events
exist, and if so which should be notified.

6 years agosystemc: Update test output for longer lived processes.
Gabe Black [Thu, 6 Dec 2018 02:02:14 +0000 (18:02 -0800)]
systemc: Update test output for longer lived processes.

In the systemc spec, process handles can be invalidated if they have no
children and are terminated. The implementation is not required to do
so however, and for the sake of simplicity gem5 currently does not. To
quote:

"When the underlying process instance terminates, if the process
instance has no surviving children, an implementation may choose to
invalidate any associated process handles, but it is not obliged to do
so."

Two tests have reference output which is affected by this (legal)
difference in behavior. In one case, the test creates new processes
which reuse the names of processes that have been terminated. Since
gem5 doesn't invalidate the old processes, a standard mechanism is
activated which renames the processes to something which is unique.

The other test has this same problem, and also prints the hierarchy
of processes several times during the test. In that hierarchy, the
terminated tests with no live children are still present, where in the
old reference output they've been removed.

This change updates the reference output to match gem5's behavior.

6 years agosystemc: Update the ordering in the reference output for some tests.

systemc: Update the ordering in the reference output for some tests.

There are a number of cases where systemc leaves the decision of what
order things happen up to the kernel, and any ordering is legal and
conformant with the spec as long as it's repeatable. The reference
outputs reflect a particular choice of ordering which is implementation
specific, and while considerable effort has been made to make the gem5
ordering match the Accellera ordering, at a certain point that's no
longer practical or desirable.

This change manually updates the reference output for the tests that
haven't been excluded for other reasons which have this sort of ordering
problem. They have been individually examined, and as best as I can
tell changing the output this way does not mask any underlying error.

One or two real problems were discovered in addition to the ordering
issues, and those were fixed in earlier changes.

Ciro Santilli [Wed, 18 Jul 2018 17:00:51 +0000 (18:00 +0100)]
arch-arm: fix the aarch64 GDB stub

The main change is to remove vector registers from the GDB stub.

Those registers were intended for SVE, which is a new architecture feature
and not yet treated by default on the GDB present in Ubuntu 18.04, and
possibly not even on GDB master.

As a result, aarch64 GDB stub connections would fail with:

Remote 'g' packet reply is too long

The correct way to support those registers is to send XML GDB target
description files to the client. This feature is not yet available for
any architecture, and should be implemented in future patches.

Other smaller fixes are:

* cpsr is uint32_t in aarch64 as well as arm
* use M5_ATTR_PACKED on the register structs since they are being cast and
  sent as byte arrays

base: Don't let exceptions leak from the to_number utility function.

This function catches a couple types of exceptions the functions it
calls might throw, but if one that it doesn't catch is thrown, then
it will propogate that exception to its own callers, and not initialize
the value it was asked to convert.

This might be considered desirable behavior since it lets errors
propogate and avoids handling them in code that might not know the
context of when it's called. On the other hand, it upsets g++ since it
thinks that there might be an uninitialized value used elsewhere, even
though that value will only be uninitialized if an exception is
propogating, and the code that would use it is after a point where that
exception would have been caught and execution would have resumed.

To satisfy g++ and to also avoid silently hiding errors, this change
adds a catch all which will panic if an unexpected exception is raised.

cpu: Fix the usage of const DynInstPtr

Summary: Usage of const DynInstPtr& when possible and introduction of
move operators to RefCountingPtr.

In many places, scoped references to dynamic instructions do a copy of
the DynInstPtr when a reference would do. This is detrimental to
performance. On top of that, in case there is a need for reference
tracking for debugging, the redundant copies make the process much more
painful than it already is.

Also, from the theoretical point of view, a function/method that
defines a convenience name to access an instruction should not be
considered an owner of the data, i.e., doing a copy and not a reference
is not justified.

On a related topic, C++11 introduces move semantics, and those are
useful when, for example, there is a class modelling a HW structure that
contains a list, and has a getHeadOfList function, to prevent doing a
copy to an internal variable -> update pointer, remove from the list ->
update pointer, return value making a copy to the assined variable ->
update pointer, destroy the returned value -> update pointer.
