This PR fixes the bug where simInsts and simOps don't reset when
m5.stats.reset() is called. The stats hostInstRate and hostOpRate are
affected by this change as well, as they depend on simInsts and simOps
respectively.
This is related to issue 1443 linked
[here](https://github.com/gem5/gem5/issues/1443).
Previously, whether the board object or the memory_system returned
the memory ports was not consistent in the cache_hierarchies
This commit makes it consistently use the board. Note: the board
is a better place so it can customize the ports (e.g., add I/O
components or other things.
This commit also makes the arm board consistent with the other
boards and removes the specialized `get_mem_ports` that was not
used.
The previous https://github.com/gem5/gem5/pull/1617 introduce the CLINT
reset feature. When reset, we changed the mtime to 0 and keep mtimecmp
unchanged by default, we also need to check mtime & mtimecmp regiter to
update the MTI signal. However, the mtime register will be incremented
to 1 by `raiseInterruptPin`.
In the PR, we introduced the interrupt ID for CLINT, the mtime will be
incremented only if received the RTC signal

There are several parts to this PR to work towards #1349 .
(1) Make RubySystem::getBlockSizeBytes non-static by providing ways to
access the block size or passing the block size explicitly to classes.
The main changes are:
- DataBlocks must be explicitly allocated. A default ctor still exists
to avoid needing to heavily modify SLICC. The size can be set using a
realloc function, operator=, or copy ctor. This is handled completely
transparently meaning no protocol or config changes are required.
- WriteMask now requires block size to be set. This is also handled
transparently by modifying the SLICC parser to identify WriteMask
types and call setBlockSize().
- AbstractCacheEntry and TBE classes now require block size to be set.
This is handled transparently by modifying the SLICC parser to
identify these classes and call initBlockSize() which calls
setBlockSize() for any DataBlock or WriteMask.
- All AbstractControllers now have a pointer to RubySystem. This is
assigned in SLICC generated code and requires no changes to protocol
or configs.
- The Ruby Message class now requires block size in all constructors.
This is added to the argument list automatically by the SLICC parser.
(2) Relax dependence on common functions in
src/mem/ruby/common/Address.hh
so that RubySystem::getBlockSizeBits is no longer static. Many classes
already have a way to get block size from the previous commit, so they
simply multiple by 8 to get the number of bits. For handling SLICC and
reducing the number of changes, define makeCacheLine, getOffset, etc. in
RubyPort and AbstractController. The only protocol changes required are
to change any "RubySystem::foo()" calls with "m_ruby_system->foo()".
For classes which do not have a way to get access to block size but
still used makeLineAddress, getOffset, etc., the block size must be
passed to that class. This requires some changes to the SimObject
interface for two commonly used classes: DirectoryMemory and
RubyPrefecther, resulting in user-facing API changes
User-facing API changes:
- DirectoryMemory and RubyPrefetcher now require the cache line size as
a non-optional argument.
- RubySequencer SimObjects now require RubySystem as a non-optional
argument.
- TesterThread in the GPU ruby tester now requires the cache line size
as a non-optional argument.
(3) Removes static member variables in RubySystem which control
randomization, cooldown, and warmup. These are mostly used by the Ruby
Network. The network classes are modified to take these former static
variables as parameters which are passed to the corresponding method
(e.g., enqueue, delayHead, etc.) rather than needing a RubySystem object
at all.
Change-Id: Ia63c2ad5cf0bf9d1cbdffba5d3a679bb4d3b1220
(4) There are two major SLICC generated static methods:
getNumControllers()
on each cache controller which returns the number of controllers created
by the configs at run time and the functions which access this method,
which are MachineType_base_count and MachineType_base_number. These need
to be removed to create multiple RubySystem objects otherwise NetDest,
version value, and other objects are incorrect.
To remove the static requirement, MachineType_base_count and
MachineType_base_number are moved to RubySystem. Any class which needs
to call these methods must now have a pointer to a RubySystem. To enable
that, several changes are made:
- RubyRequest and Message now require a RubySystem pointer in the
constructor. The pointer is passed to fields in the Message class
which require a RubySystem pointer (e.g., NetDest). SLICC is modified
to do this automatically.
- SLICC structures may now optionally take an "implicit constructor"
which can be used to call a non-default constructor for locally
defined variables (e.g., temporary variables within SLICC actions). A
statement such as "NetDest bcast_dest;" in SLICC will implicitly
append a call to the NetDest constructor taking RubySystem, for
example.
- RubySystem gets passed to Ruby network objects (Network, Topology).

The clone3 syscall, implemented in commit 87e774c, is currently only
handled for x86-64 in gem5 SE mode. Clone3 is employed by modern glibc
versions instead of clone for processes/threads generation (e.g. issue
#1204). This commit enables the clone3 syscall in riscv64 by adding the
corresponding handler call, as well as its arguments struct.
The ROM field was originally intended as a future alternate way to load
VBIOS without the ROM being on the disk image. This code path is never
taken for the devices gem5 supports and there is no gem5 implementation.
Deprecate the rom_binary field for this reason.
Similarly, MMIO traces were only used for Vega10. Deprecate this as
Vega10 is now deprecated. The MMIO trace reader is kept as it may still
be useful in the future. It is still the primary way to handle devies
which have graphics capability. None of the devices supported by gem5
have graphics now that Vega10 is deprecated.
Invalidate requests align to system cache line size. This causes
problems if the GPU cache hierarchy's cache line size is different than
the system as the unlaigned requests never return, leading to deadlock
on deferred dispatch.
This commit uses the cache line size from the GPU memory manager and
makes the cache line size there non-optional.
Tested with multiple RubySystems where CPU side was 64B and GPU side was
128B cache lines.

This refactor attempts to homogenize all riscv's vector (macro/micro)
instruction classes so that ELEN and VLEN are guaranteed to be a class
attribute. Since both are constant, all instructions will get it on the
decoding process passed through to their vector base class.
This allows the removal of VLEN in the PC state and also in some
constructor default parameters (solves issue #1207).

This PR is adjusting the constructor to relax template
requirements. In this way child classes are free to provide
their own way of calculating the number of entries and the
shifting required to extract the set
Why do we need this?
Up to this patch we have been configuring the indexing policy
by setting up the cache/table size (in bytes) and the entry size.
Those parameters make a lot of sense in caching structures
where:
a) We want to configure the caching structure using
the amount of storage (in bytes) provided (e.g. 4kB of Cache)
b) the content of a single entry is addressable therefore
we need the entry size to know how many bits in the indexing
process we need to shift to extract the set
In those cases the number of cache entries is derived from the formula
num_entries = size / entry_size
The adoption of the IndexingPolicy for different kinds
of caching structures (e.g. prefetcher tables) make this
way of configuring the IP a bit quirky.
For some tables directly setting the number of entries is a far more
intuitive way of configuring the IP, instead of allocating the desired
number of entries by working things out with the formula above
The Random ser/des support has been non-existent since 2014.

executed at EL1 perform a data cache clean and invalidate"
This behaviour should be exteded to secure mode now that Secure EL2 is
supported

This PR changes memory and cache sizes in various parts of the gem5
codebase to use binary units (e.g. KiB) instead of metric units (e.g.
kB). This makes the codebase more consistent, as gem5 automatically
converts memory and cache sizes that are in metric units to binary
units.
This PR also adds a warning message to let users know when an
auto-conversion from base 10 to base 2 units occurs.
There were a few places in configs and in the comments of various files
where I didn't change the metric units, as I couldn't figure out where
the parameters with those units were being used.
