◆ decode()

virtual StaticInstPtr gem5::InstDecoder::decode ( PCStateBase pc)
pure virtual

Decode an instruction or fetch it from the code cache.

This method decodes the currently pending pre-decoded instruction. Data must be fed to the decoder using moreBytes() until instReady() is true before calling this method.

Parameters
pcInstruction pointer that we are decoding.
Returns
A pointer to a static instruction or NULL if the decoder isn't ready (see instReady()).

Implemented in gem5::ArmISA::Decoder, gem5::RiscvISA::Decoder, gem5::X86ISA::Decoder, gem5::SparcISA::Decoder, gem5::PowerISA::Decoder, and gem5::MipsISA::Decoder.

◆ fetchRomMicroop()

StaticInstPtr gem5::InstDecoder::fetchRomMicroop ( MicroPC  micropc,

)

Reimplemented in gem5::X86ISA::Decoder.

References panic.

◆ instReady()

bool gem5::InstDecoder::instReady ( ) const
inline

Is an instruction ready to be decoded?

CPU models call this method to determine if decode() will return a new instruction on the next call. It typically only returns false if the decoder hasn't received enough data to decode a full instruction.

Definition at line 107 of file decoder.hh.

References instDone.

◆ moreBytes()

virtual void gem5::InstDecoder::moreBytes ( const PCStateBase pc,
Addr  fetchPC 
)
pure virtual

Feed data to the decoder.

A CPU model uses this interface to load instruction data into the decoder. Once enough data has been loaded (check with instReady()), a decoded instruction can be retrieved using decode(PCStateBase &).

This method is intended to support both fixed-length and variable-length instructions. Instruction data is fetch in MachInst blocks (which correspond to the size of a typical insturction). The method might need to be called multiple times if the instruction spans multiple blocks, in that case needMoreBytes() will return true and instReady() will return false.

The fetchPC parameter is used to indicate where in memory the instruction was fetched from. This is should be the same address as the pc. If fetching multiple blocks, it indicates where subsequent blocks are fetched from (pc + n * sizeof(MachInst)).

Parameters
pcInstruction pointer that we are decoding.
fetchPCThe address this chunk was fetched from.

Implemented in gem5::X86ISA::Decoder, gem5::SparcISA::Decoder, gem5::RiscvISA::Decoder, gem5::PowerISA::Decoder, gem5::MipsISA::Decoder, and gem5::ArmISA::Decoder.

◆ needMoreBytes()

bool gem5::InstDecoder::needMoreBytes ( ) const

Can the decoder accept more data?

A CPU model uses this method to determine if the decoder can accept more data. Note that an instruction can be ready (see instReady() even if this method returns true.

◆ takeOverFrom()

Parameters
