Detailed Description

This abstract component provides a mechanism to delay packets.

It can be spliced between arbitrary ports of the memory system and delays packets that pass through it.

Specialisations of this abstract class should override at least one of delayReq, delayResp, deleySnoopReq, delaySnoopResp. These methods receive a PacketPtr as their argument and return a delay in Ticks. The base class implements an infinite buffer to hold delayed packets until they are ready. The intention is to use this component for rapid prototyping of other memory system components that introduce a packet processing delays.

NOTE: Packets may be reordered if the delays aren't constant.

Member Function Documentation

◆ delayReq()

virtual Tick MemDelay::delayReq ( PacketPtr pkt )

inlineprotectedvirtual

Delay a request by some number of ticks.

Returns: Ticks to delay packet.

Reimplemented in SimpleMemDelay.

Definition at line 138 of file mem_delay.hh.

◆ delayResp()

virtual Tick MemDelay::delayResp ( PacketPtr pkt )

inlineprotectedvirtual

Delay a response by some number of ticks.

Returns: Ticks to delay packet.

Reimplemented in SimpleMemDelay.

Definition at line 145 of file mem_delay.hh.

◆ delaySnoopResp()

virtual Tick MemDelay::delaySnoopResp ( PacketPtr pkt )

inlineprotectedvirtual

Delay a snoop response by some number of ticks.

Returns: Ticks to delay packet.

Definition at line 152 of file mem_delay.hh.

◆ getPort()

Port & MemDelay::getPort	(	const std::string &	if_name,
		PortID	idx = `InvalidPortID`
	)

overrideprotectedvirtual

Get a port with a given name and index.

This is used at binding time and returns a reference to a protocol-agnostic port.

gem5 has a request and response port interface. All memory objects are connected together via ports. These ports provide a rigid interface between these memory objects. These ports implement three different memory system modes: timing, atomic, and functional. The most important mode is the timing mode and here timing mode is used for conducting cycle-level timing experiments. The other modes are only used in special circumstances and should not be used to conduct cycle-level timing experiments. The other modes are only used in special circumstances. These ports allow SimObjects to communicate with each other.

Parameters

if_name	Port name
idx	Index in the case of a VectorPort

Returns: A reference to the given port

Reimplemented from SimObject.

Definition at line 62 of file mem_delay.cc.

References SimObject::getPort(), requestPort, and responsePort.

◆ init()

void MemDelay::init ( )

overridevirtual

init() is called after all C++ SimObjects have been created and all ports are connected.

Initializations that are independent of unserialization but rely on a fully instantiated and connected SimObject graph should be done here.

Reimplemented from SimObject.

bool MemDelay::trySatisfyFunctional ( PacketPtr pkt )
