Detailed Description

The HardwareResource class models structures that hold the in-flight nodes.

When a node becomes dependency free, first check if resources are available to issue it.

Member Function Documentation

◆ awaitingResponse()

bool TraceCPU::ElasticDataGen::HardwareResource::awaitingResponse ( ) const

Check if there are any outstanding requests, i.e.

requests for which we are yet to receive a response.

Returns: true if there is at least one read or write request outstanding

◆ isAvailable()

bool TraceCPU::ElasticDataGen::HardwareResource::isAvailable ( const GraphNode * new_node ) const

Check if structures required to issue a node are free.

Parameters

node_ptr pointer to the node ready to issue

Returns: true if resources are available

Member Data Documentation

◆ inFlightNodes

std::map<NodeSeqNum, NodeRobNum> TraceCPU::ElasticDataGen::HardwareResource::inFlightNodes

private

A map from the sequence number to the ROB number of the in- flight nodes.

This includes all nodes that are in the readyList plus the loads for which a request has been sent which are not present in the readyList. But such loads are not yet complete and thus occupy resources. We need to query the oldest in-flight node and since a map container keeps all its keys sorted using the less than criterion, the first element is the in-flight node with the least sequence number, i.e. the oldest in-flight node.

Definition at line 776 of file trace_cpu.hh.

◆ numInFlightLoads

uint16_t TraceCPU::ElasticDataGen::HardwareResource::numInFlightLoads

private

Number of ready loads for which request may or may not be sent.

Definition at line 782 of file trace_cpu.hh.

◆ numInFlightStores

uint16_t TraceCPU::ElasticDataGen::HardwareResource::numInFlightStores

private

Number of ready stores for which request may or may not be sent.

Definition at line 785 of file trace_cpu.hh.

◆ oldestInFlightRobNum

NodeRobNum TraceCPU::ElasticDataGen::HardwareResource::oldestInFlightRobNum

private

The ROB number of the oldest in-flight node.

Definition at line 779 of file trace_cpu.hh.

◆ sizeLoadBuffer

const uint16_t TraceCPU::ElasticDataGen::HardwareResource::sizeLoadBuffer

private

The size of load buffer.

This is used to throttle the max. number of in-flight loads.

Definition at line 764 of file trace_cpu.hh.

◆ sizeROB

const uint16_t TraceCPU::ElasticDataGen::HardwareResource::sizeROB

private

The size of the ROB used to throttle the max.

number of in-flight nodes.

Definition at line 752 of file trace_cpu.hh.

◆ sizeStoreBuffer

const uint16_t TraceCPU::ElasticDataGen::HardwareResource::sizeStoreBuffer

private

The size of store buffer.

This is used to throttle the max. number of in-flight stores.
