Member Function Documentation

create()

QueuePolicy * QoS::QueuePolicy::create ( const QoSMemCtrlParams *  p )

static

This factory method is used for generating the queue policy.

It takes the memory controller params as an argument and returns the related QueuePolicy object. If no particular QueuePolicy has been specified in the QoSMemCtrlParams, the method will default to a LIFO queue policy.

Parameters

p	QoS::MemCtrl parameter variable

Returns

Pointer to the QueuePolicy

Definition at line 52 of file q_policy.cc.

References MipsISA::p.

enqueuePacket()

virtual void QoS::QueuePolicy::enqueuePacket ( PacketPtr  pkt )

inlinevirtual

This method is called by the memory controller after it enqueues a packet.

It is a way for the queue policy to hook into the packet enqueuing and update relevant metadata. This will then be used once the QueuePolicy::selectPacket will be called.

Parameters

pkt	Enqueued packet

Reimplemented in QoS::LrgQueuePolicy.

Definition at line 83 of file q_policy.hh.

selectPacket()

virtual PacketQueue::iterator QoS::QueuePolicy::selectPacket ( PacketQueue *  queue )

pure virtual

Policy selector.

The implementation of this virtual method selects the packet to be serviced from the packet queue passed as an argument.

Parameters

queue

Packet queue

Returns

Iterator pointing to the packet in the queue to be serviced

Implemented in QoS::LrgQueuePolicy, QoS::FifoQueuePolicy, and QoS::LifoQueuePolicy.

setMemCtrl()

void QoS::QueuePolicy::setMemCtrl ( MemCtrl *  mem )

inline

Setting a pointer to the Memory Controller implementing the policy.

Definition at line 100 of file q_policy.hh.

memCtrl
