sim-se: add a release parameter to Process.py

Set the default release to that single value for all ISAs.

glibc has checks for the kernel version based on uname, and refuses
to start any syscall emulation programs if those checks don't pass with
error:

FATAL: kernel too old

The ideal solution to this problem is to actually implement all missing
system calls for the required kernel version and bumping the release
accordingly.

However, it is very hard to implement all missing syscalls and verify
compliance.

Previously, we have simply bumped the version manually from time to
time when major glibc versions started breaking.

This commit alleviates the problem in two ways.

Firstly, having a single kernel version for all versions means that it is
easier to bump all versions at once.

Secondly, it makes it is possible to set the release with a parameter,
which in turn can be set from the command line with:

se.py --param 'system.cpu[:].workload[:].release = "4.18.0"'

# 13995:5d459168a680 28-Aug-2018 Brandon Potter <brandon.potter@amd.com>

sim-se: change syscall function signature

The system calls had four parameters. One of the parameters
is ThreadContext and another is Process. The ThreadContext
holds the value of the current process so the Process parameter
is redundant since the system call functions already have
indirect access.

With the old API, it is possible to call into the functions with
the wrong supplied Process which could end up being a confusing
error.

This patch removes the redundancy by forcing access through the
ThreadContext field within each system call.

sim: Make the Process create function use the object loader mechanism.

This gets rid of the big mass of #if-s around headers and around the
code which creates an object file.

As a nice side bonus, this also means that in addition to supporting
multiple OS/arch combinations simultaneously, the object file loader
could support multiple ISAs simultaneously as well, since each could
load and set up its object file loaders indepedently and without the
base process classes knowledge/involvement.

sim-se: bugfix for 54c77aa055e

54c77aa055e introduced a bug which manifests as cyclical
dependency on a member initialization for the Process
class.

The current working directory (cwd) parameter is passed into
Process to initialize both the target and host versions of the
cwd. (The target and host versions may differ if the faux
filesystem is used.) The host cwd init invoked methods which
rely on the host cwd already being initialized. To avoid the
bug, the code will now rely on using the targets cwd version,
but will issue checks against the redirect paths.

sim-se: add a faux-filesystem

This change introduces the concept of a faux-filesystem.
The faux-filesystem creates a directory structure in m5out
(or whatever output dir the user specifies) where system calls
may be redirected.

This is useful to avoid non-determinism when reading files
with varying path names (e.g., variations from run-to-run if
the simulation is scheduled on a cluster where paths may change).

Also, this changeset allows circumventing host pseudofiles which
have information specific to the host processor (such as cache
hierarchy or processor information). Bypassing host pseudofiles
can be useful when executing runtimes in the absence of an
operating system kernel since runtimes may try to query standard
files (i.e. /proc or /sys) which are not relevant to an
application executing in syscall emulation mode.

# 11877:5ea85692a53e 20-Jul-2015 Brandon Potter <brandon.potter@amd.com>

syscall_emul: [patch 13/22] add system call retry capability

This changeset adds functionality that allows system calls to retry without
affecting thread context state such as the program counter or register values
for the associated thread context (when system calls return with a retry
fault).

This functionality is needed to solve problems with blocking system calls
in multi-process or multi-threaded simulations where information is passed
between processes/threads. Blocking system calls can cause deadlock because
the simulator itself is single threaded. There is only a single thread
servicing the event queue which can cause deadlock if the thread hits a
blocking system call instruction.

To illustrate the problem, consider two processes using the producer/consumer
sharing model. The processes can use file descriptors and the read and write
calls to pass information to one another. If the consumer calls the blocking
read system call before the producer has produced anything, the call will
block the event queue (while executing the system call instruction) and
deadlock the simulation.

The solution implemented in this changeset is to recognize that the system
calls will block and then generate a special retry fault. The fault will
be sent back up through the function call chain until it is exposed to the
cpu model's pipeline where the fault becomes visible. The fault will trigger
the cpu model to replay the instruction at a future tick where the call has
a chance to succeed without actually going into a blocking state.

In subsequent patches, we recognize that a syscall will block by calling a
non-blocking poll (from inside the system call implementation) and checking
for events. When events show up during the poll, it signifies that the call
would not have blocked and the syscall is allowed to proceed (calling an
underlying host system call if necessary). If no events are returned from the
poll, we generate the fault and try the instruction for the thread context
at a distant tick. Note that retrying every tick is not efficient.

As an aside, the simulator has some multi-threading support for the event
queue, but it is not used by default and needs work. Even if the event queue
was completely multi-threaded, meaning that there is a hardware thread on
the host servicing a single simulator thread contexts with a 1:1 mapping
between them, it's still possible to run into deadlock due to the event queue
barriers on quantum boundaries. The solution of replaying at a later tick
is the simplest solution and solves the problem generally.

syscall_emul: [patch 10/22] refactor fdentry and add fdarray class

Several large changes happen in this patch.

The FDEntry class is rewritten so that file descriptors now correspond to
types: 'File' which is normal file-backed file with the file open on the
host machine, 'Pipe' which is a pipe that has been opened on the host machine,
and 'Device' which does not have an open file on the host yet acts as a pseudo
device with which to issue ioctls. Other types which might be added in the
future are directory entries and sockets (off the top of my head).

The FDArray class was create to hold most of the file descriptor handling
that was stuffed into the Process class. It uses shared pointers and
the std::array type to hold the FDEntries mentioned above.

The changes to these two classes needed to be propagated out to the rest
of the code so there were quite a few changes for that. Also, comments were
added where I thought they were needed to help others and extend our
DOxygen coverage.

Moves aux_vector into its own .hh and .cc files just to get it out of the
already crowded Process files. Arguably, it could stay there, but it's
probably better just to move it and give it files.

The changeset looks ugly around the Process header file, but the goal here is
to move methods and members around so that they're not defined randomly
throughout the entire header file. I expect this is likely one of the reasons
why I several unused variables related to this class. So, the methods are
declared first followed by members. I've tried to aggregate them together
so that similar entries reside near one another.

There are other changes coming to this code so this is by no means the
final product.

sim: Fix SE mode checkpoint restore file handling

When restoring from a checkpoint, the simulation used to use file handles from
the checkpoint. This disallows multiple separate restore simulations from using
separate input and output files and directories, and plays havoc when the
checkpointed file locations may have changed. Add handling to allow the command
line specified files to be used as input/output for the restored simulation
(Note: this is the similar functionality to FS mode for output and error).

arch: [Patch 1/5] Added RISC-V base instruction set RV64I

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.]

base: add symbol support for dynamic libraries

Libraries are loaded into the process address space using the
mmap system call. Conveniently, this happens to be a good
time to update the process symbol table with the library's
incoming symbols so we handle the table update from within the
system call.

This works just like an application's normal symbols. The only
difference between a dynamic library and a main executable is
when the symbol table update occurs. The symbol table update for
an executable happens at program load time and is finished before
the process ever begins executing. Since dynamic linking happens
at runtime, the symbol loading happens after the library is
first loaded into the process address space. The library binary
is examined at this time for a symbol section and that section
is parsed for symbol types with specific bindings (global,
local, weak). Subsequently, these symbols are added to the table
and are available for use by gem5 for things like trace
generation.

Checkpointing should work just as it did previously. The address
space (and therefore the library) will be recorded and the symbol
table will be entirely recorded. (It's not possible to do anything
clever like checkpoint a program and then load the program back
with different libraries with LD_LIBRARY_PATH, because the
library becomes part of the address space after being loaded.)

syscall_emul: move mmapGrowsDown() to LiveProcess

The mmapGrowsDown() method was a static method on the OperatingSystem
class (and derived classes), which worked OK for the templated syscall
emulation methods, but made it hard to access elsewhere. This patch
moves the method to be a virtual function on the LiveProcess method,
where it can be overridden for specific platforms (for now, Alpha).

This patch also changes the value of mmapGrowsDown() from being false
by default and true only on X86Linux32 to being true by default and
false only on Alpha, which seems closer to reality (though in reality
most people use ASLR and this doesn't really matter anymore).

In the process, also got rid of the unused mmap_start field on
LiveProcess and OperatingSystem mmapGrowsUp variable.

syscall_emul: don't check host fd when allocating target fd

There's a well-meaning check in Process::allocFD() to return an invalid
target fd (-1) if the incoming host fd is -1. However, this means that
emulated drivers, which want to allocate a target fd that doesn't
correspond to a host fd, can't use -1 to indicate an intentionally
invalid host fd.

It turns out the allocFD() check is redundant, as callers always test
the host fd for validity before calling. Also, callers never test the
return value of allocFD() for validity, so even if the test failed,
it would likely have the undesirable result of returning -1 to the
target app as a file descriptor without setting errno.

Thus the check is pointless and is now getting in the way, so it seems
we should just get rid of it.

syscall_emul: Bandage readlink /proc/self/exe

The recent changeset to readlink() to handle reading the /proc/self/exe link
introduces a number of problems. This patch fixes two:

1) Because readlink() called on /proc/self/exe now uses LiveProcess::progName()
to find the binary path, it will only get the zeroth parameter of the simulated
system command line. However, if a config script also specifies the process'
executable, the executable parameter is used to create the LiveProcess rather
than the zeroth command line parameter. Thus, the zeroth command line parameter
is not necessarily the correct path to the binary executing in the simulated
system. To fix this, add a LiveProcess data member, 'executable', which is
correctly set during instantiation and returned from progName().

2) If a config script allows a user to pass a relative path as the zeroth
simulated system command line parameter or process executable, readlink() will
incorrecly return a relative path when called on '/proc/self/exe'.
/proc/self/exe is always set to a full path, so running benchmarks can fail if
a relative path is returned. To fix this, clean up the handling of
LiveProcess::progName() within readlink() to get the full binary path.

NOTE: This patch still leaves the potential problem that host full path to the
binary bleeds into the simulated system, potentially causing the appearance of
non-deterministic simulated system execution.

This patch gets rid of unused Process::dup_fd method and does minor
refactoring in the process class files. The file descriptor max has been

altered to be dynamically allocated as opposed to being an array; the
intention here is to build on this is subsequent patches to allow processes
to share their file descriptors with the clone system call.

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.

Clock: Add a Cycles wrapper class and use where applicable

This patch addresses the comments and feedback on the preceding patch
that reworks the clocks and now more clearly shows where cycles
(relative cycle counts) are used to express time.

Instead of bumping the existing patch I chose to make this a separate
patch, merely to try and focus the discussion around a smaller set of
changes. The two patches will be pushed together though.

This changes done as part of this patch are mostly following directly
from the introduction of the wrapper class, and change enough code to
make things compile and run again. There are definitely more places
where int/uint/Tick is still used to represent cycles, and it will
take some time to chase them all down. Similarly, a lot of parameters
should be changed from Param.Tick and Param.Unsigned to
Param.Cycles.

In addition, the use of curTick is questionable as there should not be
an absolute cycle. Potential solutions can be built on top of this
patch. There is a similar situation in the o3 CPU where
lastRunningCycle is currently counting in Cycles, and is still an
absolute time. More discussion to be had in other words.

An additional change that would be appropriate in the future is to
perform a similar wrapping of Tick and probably also introduce a
Ticks class along with suitable operators for all these classes.

MEM: Make port proxies use references rather than pointers

This patch is adding a clearer design intent to all objects that would
not be complete without a port proxy by making the proxies members
rathen than dynamically allocated. In essence, if NULL would not be a
valid value for the proxy, then we avoid using a pointer to make this
clear.

The same approach is used for the methods using these proxies, such as
loadSections, that now use references rather than pointers to better
reflect the fact that NULL would not be an acceptable value (in fact
the code would break and that is how this patch started out).

Overall the concept of "using a reference to express unconditional
composition where a NULL pointer is never valid" could be done on a
much broader scale throughout the code base, but for now it is only
done in the locations affected by the proxies.

This patch adds the necessary flags to the SConstruct and SConscript
files for compiling using clang 2.9 and later (on Ubuntu et al and OSX
XCode 4.2), and also cleans up a bunch of compiler warnings found by

comparisons with unsigneds >= 0, and if-statements with empty
bodies. A number of mismatches between struct and class are also
fixed. clang 2.8 is not working as it has problems with class names
that occur in multiple namespaces (e.g. Statistics in
kernel_stats.hh).

clang has a bug (http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=7247) which
causes confusion between the container std::set and the function
Packet::set, and this is currently addressed by not including the
entire namespace std, but rather selecting e.g. "using std::vector" in
the appropriate places.

MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural ports

Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable
all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has
the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem
and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address
maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is
used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong
to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data
port in a port proxy.

The following replacements are made:
FunctionalPort > PortProxy
TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy
VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy

SE: move page allocation from PageTable to Process

PageTable supported an allocate() call that called back
through the Process to allocate memory, but did not have
a method to map addresses without allocating new pages.
It makes more sense for Process to do the allocation, so
this method was renamed allocateMem() and moved to Process,
and uses a new map() call on PageTable.

The remaining uses of the process pointer in PageTable
were only to get the name and the PID, so by passing these
in directly in the constructor, we can make PageTable
completely independent of Process.

sim: revamp unserialization procedure

Replace direct call to unserialize() on each SimObject with a pair of
calls for better control over initialization in both ckpt and non-ckpt
cases.

If restoring from a checkpoint, loadState(ckpt) is called on each
SimObject. The default implementation simply calls unserialize() if
there is a corresponding checkpoint section, so we get backward
compatibility for existing objects. However, objects can override
loadState() to get other behaviors, e.g., doing other programmed
initializations after unserialize(), or complaining if no checkpoint
section is found. (Note that the default warning for a missing
checkpoint section is now gone.)

If not restoring from a checkpoint, we call the new initState() method
on each SimObject instead. This provides a hook for state
initializations that are only required when *not* restoring from a
checkpoint.

Given this new framework, do some cleanup of LiveProcess subclasses
and X86System, which were (in some cases) emulating initState()
behavior in startup via a local flag or (in other cases) erroneously
doing initializations in startup() that clobbered state loaded earlier
by unserialize().

util: do checkpoint aggregation more cleanly, fix last changeset.
1) Move alpha-specific code out of page_table.cc:serialize().
2) Begin serializing M5_pid and unserializing it, but adding an function to do optional paramIn so that old checkpoints don't need to be fixed up.
3) Fix up alpha startup code so that the unserialized M5_pid value is properly written to DTB_IPR_ASN.
4) Fix the memory unserialize that I forgot somehow in the last changeset.
5) Add in an agg_se.py to handle aggregated checkpoints. --bench foo-bar plus positional arguments foo bar are the only changes in usage from se.py.
Note this aggregation stuff has only been tested for Alpha and nothing else, though it should take a very minimal amount of work to get it to work with another ISA.

build: fix compile problems pointed out by gcc 4.4


# 6701:4842482e1bd1 30-Oct-2009 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

Syscalls: Make system calls access arguments like a stack, not an array.

When accessing arguments for a syscall, the position of an argument depends on
the policies of the ISA, how much space preceding arguments took up, and the
"alignment" of the index for this particular argument into the number of
possible storate locations. This change adjusts getSyscallArg to take its
index parameter by reference instead of value and to adjust it to point to the
possible location of the next argument on the stack, basically just after the
current one. This way, the rules for the new argument can be applied locally
without knowing about other arguments since those have already been taken into
account implicitly.

All system calls have also been changed to reflect the new interface. In a
number of cases this made the implementation clearer since it encourages
arguments to be collected in one place in order and then used as necessary
later, as opposed to scattering them throughout the function or using them in
place in long expressions. It also discourages using getSyscallArg over and
over to retrieve the same value when a temporary would do the job.

Get rid of the Unallocated thread context state.
Basically merge it in with Halted.
Also had to get rid of a few other functions that
called ThreadContext::deallocate(), including:
- InOrderCPU's setThreadRescheduleCondition.
- ThreadContext::exit(). This function was there to avoid terminating
simulation when one thread out of a multi-thread workload exits, but we
need to find a better (non-cpu-centric) way.

# 5759:6e65ac8a2c80 05-Dec-2008 Lisa Hsu <hsul@eecs.umich.edu>

This brings M5 closer to modernity - the kernel being advertised is newer so it won't die on binaries compiled with newer glibc's, and enables use of TLS-toolchain built binaries for ALPHA_SE by putting auxiliary vectors on the stack. There are some comments in the code to help. Finally, stats changes for ALPHA are from slight perturbations to the initial stack frame, all minimal diffs.


# 5758:9c3edb28db1a 04-Dec-2008 Lisa Hsu <hsul@eecs.umich.edu>

This patch pulls out the auxiliary vector struct from individual ISA
LiveProcesses to the base LiveProcess definition so anyone can use them.

Make it so that all thread contexts are registered with the System, even in

registration.


# 5514:9a903bf83a33 23-Jul-2008 Michael Adler <Michael.Adler@intel.com>

process: separate stderr from stdout
- Add the option of redirecting stderr to a file. With the old
behaviour, stderr would follow stdout if stdout was to a file, but
stderr went to the host stderr if stdout went to the host stdout. The
new default maintains stdout and stderr going to the host. Now the
two can specify different files, but they will share a file descriptor
if the name of the files is the same.
- Add --output and --errout options to se.py to go with --input.

X86: Fix argument register indexing.
Code was assuming that all argument registers followed in order from ArgumentReg0. There is now an ArgumentReg array which is indexed to find the right index. There is a constant, NumArgumentRegs, which can be used to protect against using an invalid ArgumentReg.

Change ExecContext to ThreadContext. This is being renamed to differentiate between the interface used objects outside of the CPU, and the interface used by the ISA. ThreadContext is used by objects outside of the CPU and is specifically defined in thread_context.hh. ExecContext is more implicit, and is defined by files such as base_dyn_inst.hh or cpu/simple/base.hh.

Further renames/reorganization will be coming shortly; what is currently CPUExecContext (the old ExecContext from m5) will be renamed to SimpleThread or something similar.

New directory structure:
- simulator source now in 'src' subdirectory
- imported files from 'ext' repository
- support building in arbitrary places, including
outside of the source tree. See comment at top
of SConstruct file for more details.
Regression tests are temporarily disabled; that
syetem needs more extensive revisions.
