Some CPU wrappers like the Fastmodel one do extend the ThreadContext interface in order to retrieve system register state... By bypassing the TC interface and by using the ISA instead, we are basically forcing users to extend the ISA as well to intercept these calls. So with this patch we are making sure every system register is accessed (like HCR_EL2 or SCR_EL3) through the thread context. This of course does not apply to the CPU interface registers as we still use the ISA storage for them. In the future we should probably move that storage from the ISA class to the Gicv3CPUInterface class itself This is also simplifying Gicv3CPUInterface::isEL3OrMon: currEL already covers the AArch32 case so no need to differentiate between AArch32 and AArch64 Change-Id: I446a14a6e12b77e1a62040b3422f79ae52cc9eec Signed-off-by: Giacomo Travaglini <giacomo.travaglini@arm.com> Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/64913 Tested-by: kokoro <noreply+kokoro@google.com> Reviewed-by: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com> Maintainer: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com>
This is the gem5 simulator. The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/about, and for more information about building the simulator and getting started please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation and http://www.gem5.org/documentation/learning_gem5/introduction. To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang, Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, zlib, m4, and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building for more details concerning the minimum versions of these tools. Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons build/<CONFIG>/gem5.opt' where CONFIG is one of the options in build_opts like ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, X86, Garnet_standalone, etc. This will build an optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) with the the specified configuration. See http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building for more details and options. The main source tree includes these subdirectories: - build_opts: pre-made default configurations for gem5 - build_tools: tools used internally by gem5's build process. - configs: example simulation configuration scripts - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5 - include: include files for use in other programs - site_scons: modular components of the build system - src: source code of the gem5 simulator - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems - tests: regression tests - util: useful utility programs and files To run full-system simulations, you may need compiled system firmware, kernel binaries and one or more disk images, depending on gem5's configuration and what type of workload you're trying to run. Many of those resources can be downloaded from http://resources.gem5.org, and/or from the git repository here: https://gem5.googlesource.com/public/gem5-resources/ If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
