From dcfcac953002ad574fa7edc38992703cbcab715d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Howard Mao Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 17:20:20 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fix LRSC issue (RocketChip issue #86) It was possible that the result of a store-conditional could get lost if it did not depend on the result of the corresponding load-reserved. This was because the MSHR does not update the client state based on the secondary requests. So the LR would acquire the line in clientExcusiveClean, but then we would fail to update the metadata array to change the state to clientExclusiveDirty. The solution is to track whether a secondary acquire would cause the line to be dirty. If so, use M_XWR instead of the primary command to generate the update coherence state. --- rocket/src/main/scala/nbdcache.scala | 25 ++++++++++++++++++------- 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/rocket/src/main/scala/nbdcache.scala b/rocket/src/main/scala/nbdcache.scala index 011c2778..c3b783c7 100644 --- a/rocket/src/main/scala/nbdcache.scala +++ b/rocket/src/main/scala/nbdcache.scala @@ -282,6 +282,12 @@ class MSHR(id: Int)(implicit p: Parameters) extends L1HellaCacheModule()(p) { val s_invalid :: s_wb_req :: s_wb_resp :: s_meta_clear :: s_refill_req :: s_refill_resp :: s_meta_write_req :: s_meta_write_resp :: s_drain_rpq :: Nil = Enum(UInt(), 9) val state = Reg(init=s_invalid) + def stateIsOneOf(check_states: Seq[UInt]): Bool = + check_states.map(state === _).reduce(_ || _) + + def stateIsOneOf(st1: UInt, st2: UInt*): Bool = + stateIsOneOf(st1 +: st2) + val new_coh_state = Reg(init=ClientMetadata.onReset) val req = Reg(new MSHRReqInternal()) val req_idx = req.addr(untagBits-1,blockOffBits) @@ -292,14 +298,17 @@ class MSHR(id: Int)(implicit p: Parameters) extends L1HellaCacheModule()(p) { // Acquires on the same block for now. val cmd_requires_second_acquire = req.old_meta.coh.requiresAcquireOnSecondaryMiss(req.cmd, io.req_bits.cmd) - val states_before_refill = Vec(s_wb_req, s_wb_resp, s_meta_clear) - val sec_rdy = idx_match && - (states_before_refill.contains(state) || - (Vec(s_refill_req, s_refill_resp).contains(state) && - !cmd_requires_second_acquire)) + // Track whether or not a secondary acquire will cause the coherence state + // to go from clean to dirty. + val dirties_coh = Reg(Bool()) + val states_before_refill = Seq(s_wb_req, s_wb_resp, s_meta_clear) val gnt_multi_data = io.mem_grant.bits.hasMultibeatData() val (refill_cnt, refill_count_done) = Counter(io.mem_grant.valid && gnt_multi_data, refillCycles) val refill_done = io.mem_grant.valid && (!gnt_multi_data || refill_count_done) + val sec_rdy = idx_match && + (stateIsOneOf(states_before_refill) || + (stateIsOneOf(s_refill_req, s_refill_resp) && + !cmd_requires_second_acquire && !refill_done)) val rpq = Module(new Queue(new ReplayInternal, p(ReplayQueueDepth))) rpq.io.enq.valid := (io.req_pri_val && io.req_pri_rdy || io.req_sec_val && sec_rdy) && !isPrefetch(io.req_bits.cmd) @@ -308,7 +317,7 @@ class MSHR(id: Int)(implicit p: Parameters) extends L1HellaCacheModule()(p) { val coh_on_grant = req.old_meta.coh.onGrant( incoming = io.mem_grant.bits, - pending = req.cmd) + pending = Mux(dirties_coh, M_XWR, req.cmd)) val coh_on_hit = io.req_bits.old_meta.coh.onHit(io.req_bits.cmd) when (state === s_drain_rpq && !rpq.io.deq.valid) { @@ -344,10 +353,12 @@ class MSHR(id: Int)(implicit p: Parameters) extends L1HellaCacheModule()(p) { when(cmd_requires_second_acquire) { req.cmd := io.req_bits.cmd } + dirties_coh := dirties_coh || isWrite(io.req_bits.cmd) } when (io.req_pri_val && io.req_pri_rdy) { val coh = io.req_bits.old_meta.coh req := io.req_bits + dirties_coh := isWrite(io.req_bits.cmd) when (io.req_bits.tag_match) { when(coh.isHit(io.req_bits.cmd)) { // set dirty bit state := s_meta_write_req @@ -379,7 +390,7 @@ class MSHR(id: Int)(implicit p: Parameters) extends L1HellaCacheModule()(p) { val meta_hazard = Reg(init=UInt(0,2)) when (meta_hazard =/= UInt(0)) { meta_hazard := meta_hazard + 1 } when (io.meta_write.fire()) { meta_hazard := 1 } - io.probe_rdy := !idx_match || (!states_before_refill.contains(state) && meta_hazard === 0) + io.probe_rdy := !idx_match || (!stateIsOneOf(states_before_refill) && meta_hazard === 0) io.meta_write.valid := state === s_meta_write_req || state === s_meta_clear io.meta_write.bits.idx := req_idx
