arch-arm: Implement ARMv8.1-PAN, Privileged access never

ARMv8.1-PAN adds a new bit to PSTATE. When the value of this PAN state
bit is 1, any privileged data access from EL1 or EL2 to a virtual memory
address that is accessible at EL0 generates a Permission fault.
This feature is mandatory in ARMv8.1 implementations.
This feature is supported in AArch64 and AArch32 states.
The ID_AA64MMFR1_EL1.PAN, ID_MMFR3_EL1.PAN, and ID_MMFR3.PAN fields
identify the support for ARMv8.1-PAN.

arch-arm: Remove un-needed hyp flag in TLBI operations

The hyp flag was probably a legacy pre-v8 flag distinguishing
invalidation targeting PL2 translation regime (hyp mode).
Since the introduction of target_el parameter, hyp boolean is not needed
anymore. The patch works by setting the hyp flag in the flush* methods
in the TLB automatically by checking if target_el == EL2.

arch, arm: Effect of AT instructions on descriptor handling

Some address translation instructions will stop translation after
the 1st stage and intercept the IPA, even in the presence of
stage 2 (eg AT S1E1). However, in the case of a TLB miss, the
table descriptors still need to be translated from IPA to PA to
avoid fetching the wrong addresses. This commit splits whether
IPA->PA translation is required for the VA and/or for the table
descriptors.

arm: Make translateFunctional override the base implementation.

Now that translateFunctional is a virtual function, having an extra
parameter with a default value makes the compiler fall through to the
base implementation instead of overriding it. This change removes the
default value for the extra parameter, and adds a small wrapper with
the correct signature which overrides the base implementation and calls
the full version with the previously default value for the extra
parameter. To callers this will look like the same thing, but the
the right function will get called.

This was what was already being done for transateAtomic and
translateTiming.

arch,cpu: "virtualize" the TLB interface.

CPUs have historically instantiated the architecture specific version
of the TLBs to avoid a virtual function call, making them a little bit
more dependent on what the current ISA is. Some simple performance
measurement, the x86 twolf regression on the atomic CPU, shows that
there isn't actually any performance benefit, and if anything the
simulator goes slightly faster (although still within margin of error)
when the TLB functions are virtual.

This change switches everything outside of the architectures themselves
to use the generic BaseTLB type, and then inside the ISA for them to
cast that to their architecture specific type to call into architecture
specific interfaces.

The ARM TLB needed the most adjustment since it was using non-standard
translation function signatures. Specifically, they all took an extra
"type" parameter which defaulted to normal, and translateTiming
returned a Fault. translateTiming actually doesn't need to return a
Fault because everywhere that consumed it just stored it into a
structure which it then deleted(?), and the fault is stored in the
Translation object when the translation is done.

A little more work is needed to fully obviate the arch/tlb.hh header,
so the TheISA::TLB type is still visible outside of the ISAs.
Specifically, the TlbEntry type is used in the generic PageTable which
lives in src/mem.

Add support for a memory mapped m5op interface. When enabled, the TLB
intercepts accesses in the 64KiB region designated by the
ArmTLB.m5ops_base parameter. An access to this range maps to a
specific m5op call. The upper 8 bits of the offset into the range
denote the m5op function to call and the lower 8 bits denote the
subfunction.

"-Wall" with clang >= 3.5, the latter now part of the most recent

sim: Refactor and simplify the drain API

The drain() call currently passes around a DrainManager pointer, which
is now completely pointless since there is only ever one global
DrainManager in the system. It also contains vestiges from the time
when SimObjects had to keep track of their child objects that needed
draining.

This changeset moves all of the DrainState handling to the Drainable
base class and changes the drain() and drainResume() calls to reflect
this. Particularly, the drain() call has been updated to take no
parameters (the DrainManager argument isn't needed) and return a
DrainState instead of an unsigned integer (there is no point returning
anything other than 0 or 1 any more). Drainable objects should return
either DrainState::Draining (equivalent to returning 1 in the old
system) if they need more time to drain or DrainState::Drained
(equivalent to returning 0 in the old system) if they are already in a
consistent state. Returning DrainState::Running is considered an
error.

Drain done signalling is now done through the signalDrainDone() method
in the Drainable class instead of using the DrainManager directly. The
new call checks if the state of the object is DrainState::Draining
before notifying the drain manager. This means that it is safe to call
signalDrainDone() without first checking if the simulator has
requested draining. The intention here is to reduce the code needed to
implement draining in simple objects.

sim: Refactor the serialization base class

Objects that are can be serialized are supposed to inherit from the
Serializable class. This class is meant to provide a unified API for
such objects. However, so far it has mainly been used by SimObjects
due to some fundamental design limitations. This changeset redesigns
to the serialization interface to make it more generic and hide the
underlying checkpoint storage. Specifically:

* Add a set of APIs to serialize into a subsection of the current
object. Previously, objects that needed this functionality would
use ad-hoc solutions using nameOut() and section name
generation. In the new world, an object that implements the
interface has the methods serializeSection() and
unserializeSection() that serialize into a named /subsection/ of
the current object. Calling serialize() serializes an object into
the current section.

* Move the name() method from Serializable to SimObject as it is no
longer needed for serialization. The fully qualified section name
is generated by the main serialization code on the fly as objects
serialize sub-objects.

* Add a scoped ScopedCheckpointSection helper class. Some objects
need to serialize data structures, that are not deriving from
Serializable, into subsections. Previously, this was done using
nameOut() and manual section name generation. To simplify this,
this changeset introduces a ScopedCheckpointSection() helper
class. When this class is instantiated, it adds a new /subsection/
and subsequent serialization calls during the lifetime of this
helper class happen inside this section (or a subsection in case
of nested sections).

* The serialize() call is now const which prevents accidental state
manipulation during serialization. Objects that rely on modifying
state can use the serializeOld() call instead. The default
implementation simply calls serialize(). Note: The old-style calls
need to be explicitly called using the
serializeOld()/serializeSectionOld() style APIs. These are used by
default when serializing SimObjects.

* Both the input and output checkpoints now use their own named
types. This hides underlying checkpoint implementation from
objects that need checkpointing and makes it easier to change the
underlying checkpoint storage code.

arm: Share a port for the two table walker objects

This patch changes how the MMU and table walkers are created such that
a single port is used to connect the MMU and the TLBs to the memory
system. Previously two ports were needed as there are two table walker
objects (stage one and stage two), and they both had a port. Now the
port itself is moved to the Stage2MMU, and each TableWalker is simply
using the port from the parent.

By using the same port we also remove the need for having an
additional crossbar joining the two ports before the walker cache or
the L2. This simplifies the creation of the CPU cache topology in
BaseCPU.py considerably. Moreover, for naming and symmetry reasons,
the TLB walker port is connected through the stage-one table walker
thus making the naming identical to x86. Along the same line, we use
the stage-one table walker to generate the master id that is used by
all TLB-related requests.

arch, arm: Preserve TLB bootUncacheability when switching CPUs

The ARM TLBs have a bootUncacheability flag used to make some loads
and stores become uncacheable when booting in FS mode. Later the
flag is cleared to let those loads and stores operate as normal. When
doing a takeOverFrom(), this flag's state is not preserved and is
momentarily reset until the CPSR is touched. On single core runs this
is a non-issue. On multi-core runs this can lead to crashes on the O3
CPU model from the following series of events:
1) takeOverFrom executed to switch from Atomic -> O3
2) All bootUncacheability flags are reset to true
3) Core2 tries to execute a load covered by bootUncacheability, it
is flagged as uncacheable
4) Core2's load needs to replay due to a pipeline flush
3) Core1 core does an action on CPSR
4) The handling code for CPSR then checks all other cores
to determine if bootUncacheability can be set to false
5) Asynchronously set bootUncacheability on all cores to false
6) Core2 replays load previously set as uncacheable and notices
it is now flagged as cacheable, leads to a panic.
This patch implements takeOverFrom() functionality for the ARM TLBs
to preserve flag values when switching from atomic -> detailed.

Port: Add protocol-agnostic ports in the port hierarchy

This patch adds an additional level of ports in the inheritance
hierarchy, separating out the protocol-specific and protocl-agnostic
parts. All the functionality related to the binding of ports is now
confined to use BaseMaster/BaseSlavePorts, and all the
protocol-specific parts stay in the Master/SlavePort. In the future it
will be possible to add other protocol-specific implementations.

The functions used in the binding of ports, i.e. getMaster/SlavePort
now use the base classes, and the index parameter is updated to use
the PortID typedef with the symbolic InvalidPortID as the default.

MEM: Introduce the master/slave port sub-classes in C++

This patch introduces the notion of a master and slave port in the C++
code, thus bringing the previous classification from the Python
classes into the corresponding simulation objects and memory objects.

The patch enables us to classify behaviours into the two bins and add
assumptions and enfore compliance, also simplifying the two
interfaces. As a starting point, isSnooping is confined to a master
port, and getAddrRanges to slave ports. More of these specilisations
are to come in later patches.

The getPort function is not getMasterPort and getSlavePort, and
returns a port reference rather than a pointer as NULL would never be
a valid return value. The default implementation of these two
functions is placed in MemObject, and calls fatal.

The one drawback with this specific patch is that it requires some
code duplication, e.g. QueuedPort becomes QueuedMasterPort and
QueuedSlavePort, and BusPort becomes BusMasterPort and BusSlavePort
(avoiding multiple inheritance). With the later introduction of the
port interfaces, moving the functionality outside the port itself, a
lot of the duplicated code will disappear again.

ARM: Mark some variables uncacheable until boot all CPUs are enabled.

Writes to these locations are manually flushed from the cache to main

gem5 doesn't support any kind of software directed maintence of the cache.

that need to be coherent as non-cacheable until all CPUs enable their MMU and
thus allows gem5 to boot MP systems with caches enabled (a requirement for
booting an O3 cpu and thus an O3 CPU regression).


# 8299:64a938a8b7fc 13-May-2011 Chander Sudanthi <chander.sudanthi@arm.com>

ARM: Better RealView/Versatile EB platform support.

Add registers and components to better support the VersatileEB board.
Made the MIDR and SYS_ID register parameters to ArmSystem and RealviewCtrl
respectively.

includes: sort all includes


# 7878:d3e6ebcccabf 04-Feb-2011 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

Fault: Rename sim/fault.hh to fault_fwd.hh to distinguish it from faults.hh.


# 7811:a8fc35183c10 03-Jan-2011 Steve Reinhardt <steve.reinhardt@amd.com>

Make commenting on close namespace brackets consistent.

Ran all the source files through 'perl -pi' with this script:

s|\s*(};?\s*)?/\*\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*\*/(\s*})?|} // namespace $3|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*|} // namespace $2\n|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(\S+)\s*namespace\s*|} // namespace $1\n|;

Also did a little manual editing on some of the arch/*/isa_traits.hh files
and src/SConscript.


# 7799:5d0f62927d75 20-Dec-2010 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

Style: Replace some tabs with spaces.


# 7781:a9f9eed35b18 07-Dec-2010 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

ARM: Support switchover with hardware table walkers


# 7749:859e8bc1cdc2 15-Nov-2010 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

ARM: Cache the misc regs at the TLB to limit readMiscReg() calls.


# 7734:85a8198aa2ff 08-Nov-2010 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

ARM: Add some TLB statistics for ARM


# 7733:08d6a773d1b6 08-Nov-2010 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

ARM: Add checkpointing support


# 7697:05b1a077977b 01-Oct-2010 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

ARM: Make the TLB a little bit faster by moving most recently used items to front of list


# 7694:de057cccee82 01-Oct-2010 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

ARM: Implement functional virtual to physical address translation
for debugging and program introspection.


# 7678:f19b6a3a8cec 13-Sep-2010 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

Faults: Pass the StaticInst involved, if any, to a Fault's invoke method.

Also move the "Fault" reference counted pointer type into a separate file,
sim/fault.hh. It would be better to name this less similarly to sim/faults.hh
to reduce confusion, but fault.hh matches the name of the type. We could change
Fault to FaultPtr to match other pointer types, and then changing the name of
the file would make more sense.


# 7639:8c09b7ff5b57 25-Aug-2010 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

ARM: Implement all ARM SIMD instructions.


# 7612:917946898102 23-Aug-2010 Gene Wu <Gene.Wu@arm.com>

MEM: Make CLREX a first class request operation and clear locks in caches when it in received


# 7603:66d853e566d2 23-Aug-2010 Gene Wu <Gene.Wu@arm.com>

ARM: Implement CLREX


# 7461:5a07045d0af2 15-Jun-2010 Nathan Binkert <nate@binkert.org>

stats: only consider a formula initialized if there is a formula


# 7436:b578349f9371 02-Jun-2010 Dam Sunwoo <dam.sunwoo@arm.com>

ARM: Added support for Access Flag and some CP15 regs (V2PCWPR, V2PCWPW, V2PCWUR, V2PCWUW,...)


# 7406:ddc26bd4ea7d 02-Jun-2010 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

# 7404:bfc74724914e 02-Jun-2010 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

ARM: Implement the ARM TLB/Tablewalker. Needs performance improvements.


# 7399:a378ac1e1615 02-Jun-2010 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

ARM: Start over with translation from Alpha code as opposed to something that has cruft from 4 different ISAs.

This code compiles, but there are no tests still


# 6020:0647c8b31a99 06-Apr-2009 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>
