This summarizes a series of changes to move general Simple, Minor,
O3 CPU stats to BaseCPU. This commit focuses on moving numBranches
from SimpleCPU to the FetchCPUStats in the BaseCPU, and
numFetchSuspends from MinorCPU into FetchCPUStats. More general
information about this relation chain is below. In addition, this
changeset first adds all relevant stats to base in the first half,
then removes the duplicated stats in the second half. Duplicated
stats are denoted in the code. In addition, to view the difference
between the old stats output and the current output, view
https://gem5.atlassian.net/browse/GEM5-1304
1. Summary:
Moved general CPU stats found across Simple, Minor, and O3 CPU models
into BaseCPU through new stat groups. The stat groups are
FetchCPUStats, ExecuteCPUStats, and CommitCPUStats. Implemented the
committedControl stat vector found in MinorCPU for Simple and O3 CPU.
Implemented the numStoreInsts stat found in SimpleCPU for O3CPU. IPC
and CPI stats are now tracked at the core and thread level in BaseCPU
and are made universal for simple, minor, o3, and kvm CPUs. Duplicate
stats across the models are merged into a single stat in BaseCPU under
the same stat name. This change does not implement every general level
stat moved to BaseCPU for every model.
2. Stat API Changes
a. SimpleCPU:
statExecutedInstType vector unified into committedInstType
numCondCtrlInsts unified into committedControl::isControl
b. O3CPU:
i. Fetch Stage
branches in fetch unified into with numBranches
rate renamed to fetchRate
insts unified into with numInsts
ii. Execute Stage
Regfile stats unified into base with use of Simple's stat naming
numRefs in IEW unified into numMemRefs
numRate from IEW renamed to instRate
iii. Commit Stage
committedInsts is renamed to numInstsNotNOP
committedOps is renamed to numOpsNotNOP
instsCommitted is unified into numInsts
opsCommitted is unified into numOps
branches is unified into committedControl::isControl
floating is unified into numFpInsts
integer is unified into numIntInsts
loads is unified into numLoadInsts
memRefs is renamed to numMemRefs
vectorInstructions is unified into numVecInsts
3. Details:
Created three stat groups in BaseCPU. FetchCPUStats track statistics
related to the fetch stage. ExecuteCPUStats track statistics related
to the execute stage. CommitCPUStats track statistics related to the
commit stage.
There are three vectors in Base that store unique pointers to per
thread instances of these stat groups. The stat group pointer for
thread i is accessible at index i of one of these vectors. For example,
stat numCCRegReads of the execute stage for thread 0 can be accessed
with executeStats[0]->numCCRegReads. The stats.txt output will print the
thread ID of the stat group. For example, numVecRegReads on thread 0
of a single core prints as
"board.processor.cores.core.executeStats0.numVecRegReads".
NOTE: Multithreading in gem5 is untested. Therefore per thread stats
output in stats.txt is not currently guaranteed to be correctly
formatted.
For FetchCPUStats, the stats moved from SimpleCPU are numBranches
and numInsts. From MinorCPU, the stat moved is numFetchSuspends. From
O3CPU, the stats moved are from the O3 fetch stage: Stat branches is
unified into numBranches, stat rate is renamed to fetchRate in Base,
stat insts is unified into numInsts, stat icacheStallCycles keeps the
same name in Base.
For ExecuteCPUStats, the stats moved from SimpleCPU are
dcacheStallCycles, numCCRegReads, numCCRegWrites,
numFpAluAccesses, numFpRegReads, numFpRegWrites, numIntAluAccesses,
numIntRegReads, numIntRegWrites, numMemRefs, numMiscRegReads,
numMiscRegWrites, numVecAluAccesses, numVecPredRegReads,
numVecPredRegWrites, numVecRegReads, numVecRegWrites. The stat moved
from MinorCPU is numDiscardedOps. From O3, the Regfile stats in CPU are
unified into the reg stats in Base and use the names found originally
in SimpleCPU. From O3 IEW stage, numInsts keeps the same name in
Base, numBranches is unified into numBranches in base, numNop keeps
the same name in Base, numRefs is unified into numMemRefs in Base,
numLoadInsts and numStoreInsts are moved into Base, numRate is renamed
to instRate in base.
For CommitCPUStats, the stats moved from SimpleCPU are
numCondCtrlInsts, numFpInsts, numIntInsts, numLoadInsts, numStoreInsts,
numVecInsts. The stats moved from MinorCPU are numInsts,
committedInstType, and committedControl. statExecutedInstType of
SimpleCPU is unified with committedInstType of MinorCPU. Implemented
committedControl stats from MinorCPU in Simple and O3 CPU. In MinorCPU,
this stat was a 2D vector, where the first dimension is the thread ID.
In base it is now a 1D vector that is tied to a thread ID via the
commitStats vector that the object is accessible through. From the O3
commit stage, committedInsts is renamed to numInstsNotNOP, committedOps
is renamed to numOpsNotNOP, instsCommitted is unified into numInsts,
opsCommitted is renamed to numOps, committedInstType is unified into
committedInstType from Minor, branches is removed because it duplicates
committedControl::IsControl, floating is unified into numFpInsts,
interger is unified into numIntInsts, loads is unified into
numLoadInsts, numStoreInsts is implemented for tracking in O3, memRefs
is renamed to numMemRefs, vectorInstructions is unified into
numVecInsts. Note that numCondCtrlInsts of Simple is unified into
committedControl::IsCondCtrl.
Implemented IPC and CPI tracking inside BaseCPU.
In BaseCPU::BaseCPUStats, numInsts and numOps track per CPU core
committed instructions and operations.
In BaseCPU::FetchCPUStats, numInsts and numOps track per thread
fetched instructions and operations.
In BaseCPU::CommitCPUStats, numInsts tracks per thread executed
instructions.
In BaseCPU::CommitCPUStats, numInsts and numOps track per thread
committed instructions and operations.
In BaseSimpleCPU, the countInst() function has been split into
countInst(), countFetchInst(), and countCommitInst(). The stat count
incrementation step of countInst() has been removed and delegated to the
other two functions. countFetchInst() increments numInsts and numOps
of the FetchCPUStats group for a thread. countCommitInst() increments
the numInsts and numOps of the CommitCPUStats group for a thread and
of the BaseCPUStats group for a CPU core. These functions are called
in the appropriate stage within timing.cc and atomic.cc. The call to
countInst() is left unchanged. countFetchInst() is called in
preExecute(). countCommitInst() is called in postExecute().
For MinorCPU, only the commit level numInsts and numOps stats have been
implemented.
IPC and CPI stats have been added to BaseCPUStats (core level) and
CommitCPUStats (thread level). The formulas for the IPC and CPI stats
in CommitCPUStats are set in the BaseCPU constructor, after the
CommitCPUStats stat group object has been created. These replace IPC,
CPI, totalIpc, and totalCpi stats in O3.
Replaced committedInsts stats of KVM CPU with commitStats.numInsts
of BaseCPU. This results in IPC and CPI printing in stats.txt for
KVM simulations.
This change does not implement most general stats found in one or two
model for all others.

The way these were set up, there would be a conflict between SimObject

This change creates a single file which tries to determine how many ISAs

The TARGET_ISA variable would let you select one ISA from a list of
possible ISAs. That has now been replaced with USE_ARM_ISA, USE_X86_ISA,
etc, variables which are boolean on or off. That will allow any number
of ISAs to be enabled or disabled individually. Enabling something other
than exactly one of these will probably prevent you from getting a
working gem5 binary, but those problems are being addressed in other,
parallel change series.
I decided to use the USE_ prefix since it was consistent with most other
on/off variables we have in gem5. One noteable exception is the
BUILD_GPU setting which, you could convincingly argue, is a better
prefix than USE_. Another option would be to use CONFIG_, in
anticipation of using a kconfig style config mechanism in gem5.
It seemed premature to start using a CONFIG_ prefix here, and if we
decide to switch to some other prefix like BUILD_, it should be a
purposeful choice and not something somebody just starts using.

version called X86AtomicSimpleCPU which installs the X86 specific
aspects of the CPU.
This specialization is done in three ways.
1. The mmu parameter is assigned an instance of the architecture
specific MMU type. This provides a reasonable default, but also avoids
having having to use the ISA specific type when the parameter is
created.
2. The ISA specific types are made available as class attributes, and
the utility functions (including __init__!) in the BaseCPU class can
refer to them to get the types they need to set up the CPU at run time.
Because SimObjects have strange, unhelpful semantics as far as assigning
to their attributes, these types need to be set up in a non-SimObject
class, which is then brought in as a base of the actual SimObject type.
Because the metaclass of this other type is just "type", things work
like you would expect. The SimObject doesn't do any special processing
of base classes if they aren't also SimObjects, so these attributes
survive and are accessible using normal lookup in the BaseCPU class.
3. There are some methods like addCheckerCPU and properties like
needsTSO which have ISA specific values or behaviors. These are set in
the ISA specific subclass, where they are inherently specific to an ISA
and don't need to check TARGET_ISA.
Also, the DummyChecker which was set up for the BaseSimpleCPU which
doesn't actually do anything in either C++ or python was not carried
forward. The CPU type still exists, but it isn't installed in the
simple CPUs.
To provide backward compatibility, each ISA implements a .py file which
matches the original .py for a CPU, and the original is renamed with a
Base prefix. The ISA specific version creates an alias with the old CPU
name which maps to the ISA specific type. This way, old scripts which
refer to, for example, AtomicSimpleCPU, will get the X86AtomicSimpleCPU
if the x86 version was compiled in, the ArmAtomicSimpleCPU on arm, etc.
Unfortunately, because of how tags on PySource and by extension SimObjects
are implemented right now, if you set the tags on two SimObjects or
PySources which have the same module path, the later will overwrite the
former whether or not they both would be included. There are some
changes in review which would revamp this and make it work like you
would expect, without this central bookkeeping which has the conflict.
Since I can't use that here, I fell back to checking TARGET_ISA to
decide whether to tell SCons about those files at all.
In the long term, this mechanism should be revamped so that these
compatibility types are only available if there is exactly one ISA
compiled into gem5. After the configs have been updated and no longer
assume they can use AtomicSimpleCPU in all cases, then these types can
be deleted.
Also, because ISAs can now either provide subclasses for a CPU or not,
the CPU_MODELS variable has been removed, meaning the non-ISA
specialized versions of those CPU models will always be included in
gem5, except when building the NULL ISA.
In the future, a more granular config mechanism will hopefully be
implemented for *all* of gem5 and not just the CPUs, and these can be
conditional again in case you only need certain models, and want to
reduce build time or binary size by excluding the others.

Currently, an access to an invalid address will cause GEM5 to exit with
a `!pkt.isError()` assertion failure. I was seeing this assertion while
running a baremetal RISC-V binary that faulted before the trap vector
had been configured and therefore tried to jump to address zero. With
this change we now print the invalid address and the type of access
(ifetch/load/store/amo) which makes debugging such a problem much easier.
For example, my faulting program now prints the following:
`panic: Instruction fetch ([0:0x4]) failed: BadAddressError [0:3] IF`
I also saw this assertion with a program that was dereferencing a NULL
pointer, which now prints a more helpful message:
`panic: Data fetch ([0x10:0x11]) failed: BadAddressError [10:10]`

This was originally intended to make it more efficient to get the
microPC without making a copy of the entire PCState object to return.
Now that the PCState is returned through a pointer without a copy and
the microPC can be accessed with an inline accessor, we don't need to
create a special accessor for it.
