Thanks Cong, I will check the python scripts you say, I think the file I have to modify is src/mem/slicc/symbols/StateMachine.py it is the only file I have found that uses the checkResourceAvailable functions. I though I have to modify the slicc files or add an option to scons to enable the checkResourceAvailable functions, something like the SLICC_HTML option for generate the HTML state machine files. Best Regards,Rodrigo

You need to change the ruby generation engine (a set of python files those translate slicc files to cpp files) to enable that checkResourceAvailable function or it will never get translated into the cpp files.

What am I missing?

The problem is that I am working with coherence protocols and I need to use Ruby. The NonCoherentCache seems a good solution, mainly if it could be used with both systems and if it returns the right access depending on the action done on the cell. It seems there is not a easy or quick way to change the R/W latency. I was thinking that changing the BankedArray could be the best way for change the latencies.

That said, at the moment the cache needs to have the same line size as the rest of the system. I think the best solution here is to make a “NonCoherentCache” that transparently sits in front of the memory controller(s), and can have any line size. This NonCoherentCache can be used both in classic and Ruby, since it does not interact with the coherency protocol. What we need is for someone to take a stab at creating this class, I’d say starting with the class Cache, and then removing all the bits related to coherency. Makes sense?

I have found a couple of patches for the classic model, but I need to use Ruby. I know the access latency is divided among different parts, I need to change cell access latency. I am thinking I need to change the BankedArray.hh(cc) files, and send the access type information Read or Write. I not sure if this is the right way to get what I need. Does somebody change the access latency for the LLC in Ruby? Thanks Rodrigo -- IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.
