x86: Templatize the IntMasterPort.

This makes the IntMasterPort usable with any class, making it possible
to avoid inheriting from IntDevice.

It also makes IntMasterPort inherit directly from QueuedMasterPort,
skipping over MessageMasterPort.

x86: Templatize IntSlavePort.

This makes the device IntSlavePort calls back into based on a template
parameter so that IntDevice doesn't have to be in the inheritance
hierarchy to use it.

It also makes IntSlavePort inherit from SimpleTimingPort directly,
skipping over MessageSlavePort.

mem: Minimize the use of MemObject.

MemObject doesn't provide anything beyond its base ClockedObject any
more, so this change removes it from most inheritance hierarchies.
Occasionally MemObject is replaced with SimObject when I was fairly
confident that the extra functionality of ClockedObject wasn't needed.

arch, x86: Delete packet in IntDevice::recvResponse

IntDevice::recvResponse is called from two places in current mainline: (1) the
short circuit path of X86ISA::IntDevice::IntMasterPort::sendMessage for atomic
mode, and (2) the full request->response path to and from the x86 interrupts
device (finally called from MessageMasterPort::recvTimingResp). In the former
case, the packet was deleted correctly, but in the latter case, the packet and
request leak. To fix the leak, move request and packet deletion into IntDevice
inherited class implementations of recvResponse.

mem: Clarification of packet crossbar timings

This patch clarifies the packet timings annotated
when going through a crossbar.

The old 'firstWordDelay' is replaced by 'headerDelay' that represents
the delay associated to the delivery of the header of the packet.

The old 'lastWordDelay' is replaced by 'payloadDelay' that represents
the delay needed to processing the payload of the packet.

For now the uses and values remain identical. However, going forward
the payloadDelay will be additive, and not include the
headerDelay. Follow-on patches will make the headerDelay capture the
pipeline latency incurred in the crossbar, whereas the payloadDelay
will capture the additional serialisation delay.

mem: Rename Bus to XBar to better reflect its behaviour

This patch changes the name of the Bus classes to XBar to better
reflect the actual timing behaviour. The actual instances in the
config scripts are not renamed, and remain as e.g. iobus or membus.

As part of this renaming, the code has also been clean up slightly,
making use of range-based for loops and tidying up some comments. The
only changes outside the bus/crossbar code is due to the delay
variables in the packet.

dev: consistently end device classes in 'Device'

PciDev and IntDev stuck out as the only device classes that
ended in 'Dev' rather than 'Device'. This patch takes care
of that inconsistency.

Note that you may need to delete pre-existing files matching
build/*/python/m5/internal/param_* as scons does not pick up
indirect dependencies on imported python modules when generating
params, and the PciDev -> PciDevice rename takes place in a
file (dev/Device.py) that gets imported quite a bit.

scons: Fix warnings issued by clang 3.2svn (XCode 4.6)

This patch fixes the warnings that clang3.2svn emit due to the "-Wall"
flag. There is one case of an uninitialised value in the ARM neon ISA
description, and then a whole range of unused private fields that are
pruned.

mem: Enforce strict use of busFirst- and busLastWordTime

This patch adds a check to ensure that the delay incurred by
the bus is not simply disregarded, but accounted for by someone. At
this point, all the modules do is to zero it out, and no additional
time is spent. This highlights where the bus timing is simply dropped
instead of being paid for.

As a follow up, the locations identified in this patch should add this
additional time to the packets in one way or another. For now it
simply acts as a sanity check and highlights where the delay is simply
ignored.

Since no time is added, all regressions remain the same.

Port: Make getAddrRanges const

This patch makes getAddrRanges const throughout the code base. There
is no reason why it should not be, and making it const prevents adding
any unintentional side-effects.

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.


# 8851:7e966326ef5b 24-Feb-2012 Andreas Hansson <andreas.hansson@arm.com>

MEM: Move port creation to the memory object(s) construction

This patch moves all port creation from the getPort method to be
consistently done in the MemObject's constructor. This is possible
thanks to the Swig interface passing the length of the vector ports.
Previously there was a mix of: 1) creating the ports as members (at
object construction time) and using getPort for the name resolution,
or 2) dynamically creating the ports in the getPort call. This is now
uniform. Furthermore, objects that would not be complete without a
port have these ports as members rather than having pointers to
dynamically allocated ports.

This patch also enables an elaboration-time enumeration of all the
ports in the system which can be used to determine the masterId.


# 8839:eeb293859255 13-Feb-2012 Andreas Hansson <andreas.hansson@arm.com>

MEM: Introduce the master/slave port roles in the Python classes

This patch classifies all ports in Python as either Master or Slave
and enforces a binding of master to slave. Conceptually, a master (such
as a CPU or DMA port) issues requests, and receives responses, and
conversely, a slave (such as a memory or a PIO device) receives
requests and sends back responses. Currently there is no
differentiation between coherent and non-coherent masters and slaves.

The classification as master/slave also involves splitting the dual
role port of the bus into a master and slave port and updating all the
system assembly scripts to use the appropriate port. Similarly, the
interrupt devices have to have their int_port split into a master and
slave port. The intdev and its children have minimal changes to
facilitate the extra port.

Note that this patch does not enforce any port typing in the C++
world, it merely ensures that the Python objects have a notion of the
port roles and are connected in an appropriate manner. This check is
carried when two ports are connected, e.g. bus.master =
memory.port. The following patches will make use of the
classifications and specialise the C++ ports into masters and slaves.

MEM: Separate queries for snooping and address ranges

This patch simplifies the address-range determination mechanism and
also unifies the naming across ports and devices. It further splits
the queries for determining if a port is snooping and what address
ranges it responds to (aiming towards a separation of
cache-maintenance ports and pure memory-mapped ports). Default
behaviours are such that most ports do not have to define isSnooping,
and master ports need not implement getAddrRanges.

MessagePort: implement the virtual recvTiming function to avoid double pkt delete

Double packet delete problem is due to an interrupt device deleting a packet that the SimpleTimingPort also deletes. Since MessagePort descends from SimpleTimingPort, simply reimplement the failing code from SimpleTimingPort: recvTiming.

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.

X86: Create the IntDev and IntPin system.

The IntDev class is a base for anything that supports IntPins. IntPins allow
devices to generically trigger interrupts on a particular pin of an IntDev
device without having to know what the device is or what pin they're attached
to.
