[Gems-users] problems when add a victim cache structure in .sm files

["shanshuchang" <shanshuchang@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I have got some problems when I tried to add a new victim cache for the MOESI_CMP_directory protocol.
Firstly, using CacheMemory as a example,I write a new class VictimCache.h and placed it at $GEMS_ROOT/ruby/system folder just like CacheMemory.h.

 

Then, I tried to add the VictimCache as a external type like this:   

  external_type(VictimCache) {
    //some function like CacheMemory

  } ;

 

VictimCache L1DVictim,template_hack="<L1Victim_Entry>", constructor_hack='L1_CACHE_ASSOC,MachineType_L1Cache,int_to_string(i)+"_L1D"',abstract_chip_ptr="true";

 

Then I tried to compiled it and the errors found here:
generated/MOESI_NEW/Chip.C: In constructor `Chip::Chip(NodeID, Network*)':
generated/MOESI_NEW/Chip.C:216: error: `m_L1Cache_L1DVictim_vec' was not declared in this scope

It is said that I should remove the words--abstract_chip_ptr="true" or include the definition  to ruby/slicc_interface/AbstractChip.h

I followed them both and maked it again and again, still some errors exists:

 

(1)Modified Like this:

 In .sm file: VictimCache L1DVictim,template_hack="<L1Victim_Entry>", constructor_hack='L1_CACHE_ASSOC,MachineType_L1Cache,int_to_string(i)+"_L1D"';)

(2)I also tried to add codes to AbstractChip.h to include head file L1Victim_Entry.h (just like L1Cache_Entry) and add some definition code of m_L1Cache_L1DVictim_vec

However, the make errors sounds like that can't generate L1Victim_Entry.h.

 

 

There may be some GEMS experts here who has already did some work similar to me and any help will be appreciated.
