This code implementes hardware breakpoint exception as part of
software debug explained in ARMv8 reference manual ChapterD2.
+ ArmISA.py: Modify register to allow up to 15 Breakpoint registers
+ Sconscript: Add new file self_debug
+ faults.cc/hh: Defintion and implementation of HardwareBreakpoint
exception inheriting ArmFault.
+ isa.cc/hh: ArmISA contains now an attribute pointing to the SelfDebug
object that will be used to be access SelfDebug infrastructure
Added special cases for setMiscReg to cache debug enable bits.
+ miscregs.hh/cc: Definition and initialization of DBGDCn and DBGDVn
registers.
+ tlb.cc/hh: We include the access to check for breakpoint instruction as
part of the tlb translation process, checking if it comes from a
fetch in the itlb
+ types.hh: Definition of new bitwise register types.
+ utility.cc/hh: Definition and implementation of auxiliar functions for
the selfDebug.
+ self_debug.hh/cc: Main files that include the implemenattion of
breakpoint checks, selfdebug enable and auxiliar functions.

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, SWIG, 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 the aforementioned tools. Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of 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/documentation/general_docs/building for more details and options. 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. If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
