This patch has 2 main aspects: 1) Add new parameter to adjust write-to-write delay 2) Enable support of more than 64 banks per controller Changes for new parameter: Incorporated a new parameter, tCCD_L_WR, which defaults to tCCD_L. This parameter can be used to set a unique delay between writes and between reads. To incorporate this parameter in the controller, modified the DRAMCtrl class to have separate variables for read and write column delays. Used these variables to account for tRTW, tWTR, tBURST, tCCD_L, and tCS as well as the new tCCD_L_WR parameter. Changes to support more than 64 banks: Modified the logic selecting the next command (reorderQueue and minBankPrep functions). Replaced the unint64_t variables with a vector of uint32_t elements. There is a uint32_t element defined per ranks to allow up to 32 banks per rank. This will automatically scale with ranks without issue. Change will allow analysis of memory sub-systems beyond the current landscape.

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/Introduction, and for more information about building the simulator and getting started please see http://www.gem5.org/Documentation and http://www.gem5.org/Tutorials. To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang, Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4, and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/Dependencies for more details concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools. Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ALPHA, ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture. See http://www.gem5.org/Build_System for more details and options. With the simulator built, have a look at http://www.gem5.org/Running_gem5 for more information on how to use gem5. The basic source release includes these subdirectories: - configs: example simulation configuration scripts - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5 - 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 will need compiled system firmware (console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk images. Please see the gem5 download page for these items at http://www.gem5.org/Download If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
