Hi Brad
I am trying to boot an x86 full system with O3 and Ruby, the protocol
being MOESI hammer. The simulation aborts due to a certain load request
not getting fulfilled with in stipulated time. Looking at the trace, I
gathered that three load requests got stuck in a loop. I think the problem
is with the following transition. Can you comment why wakeupAllDependents
might be needed in this transition. I don't think a request will get
fulfilled / resources freed-up due to this transition.
// Transitions moving data between the L1 and L2 caches
transition({I, S, O, M, MM}, L1_to_L2) {
i_allocateTBE;
gg_deallocateL1CacheBlock;
vv_allocateL2CacheBlock;
hp_copyFromTBEToL2;
s_deallocateTBE;
ka_wakeUpAllDependents;
}
Thanks
Nilay
