Detailed Description

The random generator is similar to the linear one, but does not generate sequential addresses.

Instead it randomly picks an address in the range, aligned to the block size.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

RandomGen()

RandomGen::RandomGen ( SimObject &  obj, MasterID  master_id, Tick  _duration, Addr  start_addr, Addr  end_addr, Addr  _blocksize, Addr  cacheline_size, Tick  min_period, Tick  max_period, uint8_t  read_percent, Addr  data_limit  )

inline

Create a random address sequence generator.

Set min_period == max_period for a fixed inter-transaction time.

Parameters

gen	Traffic generator owning this sequence generator
_duration	duration of this state before transitioning
start_addr	Start address
end_addr	End address
_blocksize	Size used for transactions injected
min_period	Lower limit of random inter-transaction time
max_period	Upper limit of random inter-transaction time
read_percent	Percent of transactions that are reads
data_limit	Upper limit on how much data to read/write

Member Function Documentation

enter()

void RandomGen::enter ( )

virtual

Enter this generator state.

Implements BaseGen.

getNextPacket()

PacketPtr RandomGen::getNextPacket ( )

virtual

Get the next generated packet.

Returns

A packet to be sent at the current tick

Implements BaseGen.

nextPacketTick()

Tick RandomGen::nextPacketTick ( bool  elastic, Tick  delay  ) const

virtual

Determine the tick when the next packet is available.

MaxTick means that there will not be any further packets in the current activation cycle of the generator.

Parameters

elastic	should the injection respond to flow control or not
delay	time the previous packet spent waiting

Returns

next tick when a packet is available

Implements BaseGen.

Member Data Documentation

dataManipulated

Addr RandomGen::dataManipulated

protected

Counter to determine the amount of data manipulated.

Used to determine if we should continue generating requests.
