This patch moves away from using M5_ATTR_OVERRIDE and the m5::hashmap
(and similar) abstractions, as these are no longer needed with gcc 4.7
and clang 3.1 as minimum compiler versions.
Changeset 4872dbdea907 replaced Address by Addr, but did not make changes to
print statements. So the addresses which were being printed in hex earlier
along with their line address, were now being printed in decimals. This patch
adds a function printAddress(Addr) that can be used to print the address in hex
along with the lines address. This function has been put to use in some of the
places. At other places, change has been made to print just the address in
hex.
This patch eliminates the type Address defined by the ruby memory system.
This memory system would now use the type Addr that is in use by the
rest of the system.
This patch takes a step towards an ISA-agnostic memory
system by enabling the components to establish the page size after
instantiation. The swap operation in the memory is now also allowing
any granularity to avoid depending on the IntReg of the ISA.
The Index type defined as typedef int64 does not really provide any help
since in most places we use primitive types instead of Index. Also, the name
Index is very generic that it does not merit being used as a typename.
This patch addresses a number of minor issues that cause problems when
compiling with clang >= 3.0 and gcc >= 4.6. Most importantly, it
avoids using the deprecated ext/hash_map and instead uses
unordered_map (and similarly so for the hash_set). To make use of the
new STL containers, g++ and clang has to be invoked with "-std=c++0x",
and this is now added for all gcc versions >= 4.6, and for clang >=
3.0. For gcc >= 4.3 and <= 4.5 and clang <= 3.0 we use the tr1
unordered_map to avoid the deprecation warning.
The addition of c++0x in turn causes a few problems, as the
compiler is more stringent and adds a number of new warnings. Below,
the most important issues are enumerated:
1) the use of namespaces is more strict, e.g. for isnan, and all
headers opening the entire namespace std are now fixed.
2) another other issue caused by the more stringent compiler is the
narrowing of the embedded python, which used to be a char array,
and is now unsigned char since there were values larger than 128.
3) a particularly odd issue that arose with the new c++0x behaviour is
found in range.hh, where the operator< causes gcc to complain about
the template type parsing (the "<" is interpreted as the beginning
of a template argument), and the problem seems to be related to the
begin/end members introduced for the range-type iteration, which is
a new feature in c++11.
As a minor update, this patch also fixes the build flags for the clang
debug target that used to be shared with gcc and incorrectly use
"-ggdb".
This patch removes some of the unused typedefs. It also moves
some of the typedefs from Global.hh to TypeDefines.hh. The patch
also eliminates the file NodeID.hh.
This patch changes Address.hh so that it is not dependent on RubySystem.
This dependence seems unecessary. All those functions that depend on
RubySystem have been moved to Address.cc file.
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.
In addition to obvious changes, this required a slight change to the slicc
grammar to allow types with :: in them. Otherwise slicc barfs on std::string
which we need for the headers that slicc generates.
This was done with an automated process, so there could be things that were
done in this tree in the past that didn't make it. One known regression
is that atomic memory operations do not seem to work properly anymore.
This basically means changing all #include statements and changing
autogenerated code so that it generates the correct paths. Because
slicc generates #includes, I had to hard code the include paths to
mem/protocol.
