<h1 id="msi-directory-implementation">MSI Directory implementation</h1>
<p>Implementing a directory controller is very similar to the L1 cache
controller, except using a different state machine table. The state
machine fore the directory can be found in Table 8.2 in Sorin et al.
Since things are mostly similar to the L1 cache, this section mostly
just discusses a few more SLICC details and a few differences between
directory controllers and cache controllers. Let’s dive straight in and
start modifying a new file <code class="highlighter-rouge">MSI-dir.sm</code>.</p>
<p>``` {.sourceCode .c++}
machine(MachineType:Directory, “Directory protocol”)
:
DirectoryMemory * directory;
Cycles toMemLatency := 1;</p>
<p>MessageBuffer *forwardToCache, network=”To”, virtual_network=”1”,
vnet_type=”forward”;
MessageBuffer *responseToCache, network=”To”, virtual_network=”2”,
vnet_type=”response”;</p>
<p>MessageBuffer *requestFromCache, network=”From”, virtual_network=”0”,
vnet_type=”request”;</p>
<p>MessageBuffer *responseFromCache, network=”From”, virtual_network=”2”,
vnet_type=”response”;</p>
<p>MessageBuffer *responseFromMemory;</p>
<p>{
. . .
}</p>
<div class="highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>
First, there are two parameter to this directory controller,
`DirectoryMemory` and a `toMemLatency`. The `DirectoryMemory` is a
little weird. It is allocated at initialization time such that it can
cover *all* of physical memory, like a complete directory *not a
directory cache*. I.e., there are pointers in the `DirectoryMemory`
object for every 64-byte block in physical memory. However, the actual
entries (as defined below) are lazily created via `getDirEntry()`. We'll
see more details about `DirectoryMemory` below.
Next, is the `toMemLatency` parameter. This will be used in the
`enqueue` function when enqueuing requests to model the directory
latency. We didn't use a parameter for this in the L1 cache, but it is
simple to make the controller latency parameterized. This parameter
defaults to 1 cycle. It is not required to set a default here. The
default is propagated to the generated SimObject description file as the
default to the SimObject parameter.
Next, we have the message buffers for the directory. Importantly, *these
need to have the same virtual network numbers* as the message buffers in
the L1 cache. These virtual network numbers are how the Ruby network
directs messages between controllers.
There is also one more special message buffer: `responseFromMemory`.
This is similar to the `mandatoryQueue`, except instead of being like a
slave port for CPUs it is like a master port. The `responseFromMemory`
buffer will deliver response sent across the the memory port, as we will
see below in the action section.
After the parameters and message buffers, we need to declare all of the
states, events, and other local structures.
``` {.sourceCode .c++}
state_declaration(State, desc="Directory states",
default="Directory_State_I") {
// Stable states.
// NOTE: These are "cache-centric" states like in Sorin et al.
// However, The access permissions are memory-centric.
I, AccessPermission:Read_Write, desc="Invalid in the caches.";
S, AccessPermission:Read_Only, desc="At least one cache has the blk";
M, AccessPermission:Invalid, desc="A cache has the block in M";
// Transient states
S_D, AccessPermission:Busy, desc="Moving to S, but need data";
// Waiting for data from memory
S_m, AccessPermission:Read_Write, desc="In S waiting for mem";
M_m, AccessPermission:Read_Write, desc="Moving to M waiting for mem";
// Waiting for write-ack from memory
MI_m, AccessPermission:Busy, desc="Moving to I waiting for ack";
SS_m, AccessPermission:Busy, desc="Moving to I waiting for ack";
}
enumeration(Event, desc="Directory events") {
// Data requests from the cache
GetS, desc="Request for read-only data from cache";
GetM, desc="Request for read-write data from cache";
// Writeback requests from the cache
PutSNotLast, desc="PutS and the block has other sharers";
PutSLast, desc="PutS and the block has no other sharers";
PutMOwner, desc="Dirty data writeback from the owner";
PutMNonOwner, desc="Dirty data writeback from non-owner";
// Cache responses
Data, desc="Response to fwd request with data";
// From Memory
MemData, desc="Data from memory";
MemAck, desc="Ack from memory that write is complete";
}
structure(Entry, desc="...", interface="AbstractEntry") {
State DirState, desc="Directory state";
NetDest Sharers, desc="Sharers for this block";
NetDest Owner, desc="Owner of this block";
}
</code></pre></div></div>
<p>In the <code class="highlighter-rouge">state_declaration</code> we define a default. For many things in SLICC
you can specify a default. However, this default must use the C++ name
(mangled SLICC name). For the state below you have to use the controller
name and the name we use for states. In this case, since the name of the
machine is “Directory” the name for “I” is “Directory”+”State” (for the
name of the structure)+”I”.</p>
<p>Note that the permissions in the directory are “memory-centric”.
Whereas, all of the states are cache centric as in Sorin et al.</p>
<p>In the <code class="highlighter-rouge">Entry</code> definition for the directory, we use a NetDest for both
the sharers and the owner. This makes sense for the sharers, since we
want a full bitvector for all L1 caches that may be sharing the block.
The reason we also use a <code class="highlighter-rouge">NetDest</code> for the owner is to simply copy the
structure into the message we send as a response as shown below.</p>
<p>In this implementation, we use a few more transient states than in Table
8.2 in Sorin et al. to deal with the fact that the memory latency in
unknown. In Sorin et al., the authors assume that the directory state
and memory data is stored together in main-memory to simplify the
protocol. Similarly, we also include new actions: the responses from
memory.</p>
<p>Next, we have the functions that need to overridden and declared. The
function <code class="highlighter-rouge">getDirectoryEntry</code> either returns the valid directory entry,
or, if it hasn’t been allocated yet, this allocates the entry.
Implementing it this way may save some host memory since this is lazily
populated.</p>
<p>``` {.sourceCode .c++}
Tick clockEdge();</p>
<p>Entry getDirectoryEntry(Addr addr), return_by_pointer = “yes” {
Entry dir_entry := static_cast(Entry, “pointer”, directory[addr]);
if (is_invalid(dir_entry)) {
// This first time we see this address allocate an entry for it.
dir_entry := static_cast(Entry, “pointer”,
directory.allocate(addr, new Entry));
}
return dir_entry;
}</p>

<div class="highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>
Next, we need to implement the ports for the cache. First we specify the
`out_port` and then the `in_port` code blocks. The only difference
between the `in_port` in the directory and in the L1 cache is that the
directory does not have a TBE or cache entry. Thus, we do not pass
either into the `trigger` function.
``` {.sourceCode .c++}
out_port(forward_out, RequestMsg, forwardToCache);
out_port(response_out, ResponseMsg, responseToCache);
in_port(memQueue_in, MemoryMsg, responseFromMemory) {
if (memQueue_in.isReady(clockEdge())) {
peek(memQueue_in, MemoryMsg) {
if (in_msg.Type == MemoryRequestType:MEMORY_READ) {

} else if (in_msg.Type == MemoryRequestType:MEMORY_WB) {
trigger(Event:MemAck, in_msg.addr);
} else {

}
}
}
in_port(response_in, ResponseMsg, responseFromCache) {
if (response_in.isReady(clockEdge())) {
peek(response_in, ResponseMsg) {
if (in_msg.Type == CoherenceResponseType:Data) {
trigger(Event:Data, in_msg.addr);

error("Unexpected message type.");

in_port(request_in, RequestMsg, requestFromCache) {
if (request_in.isReady(clockEdge())) {
peek(request_in, RequestMsg) {
Entry e := getDirectoryEntry(in_msg.addr);
if (in_msg.Type == CoherenceRequestType:GetS) {
trigger(Event:GetS, in_msg.addr);
} else if (in_msg.Type == CoherenceRequestType:GetM) {
trigger(Event:GetM, in_msg.addr);

assert(is_valid(e));
// If there is only a single sharer (i.e., the requestor)
if (e.Sharers.count() == 1) {
assert(e.Sharers.isElement(in_msg.Requestor));
trigger(Event:PutSLast, in_msg.addr);
} else {
trigger(Event:PutSNotLast, in_msg.addr);

assert(is_valid(e));
if (e.Owner.isElement(in_msg.Requestor)) {

}
} else {
error("Unexpected message type.");
}
}
}
}

<p>The next part of the state machine file is the actions. First, we define
actions for queuing memory reads and writes. For this, we will use a
special function define in the <code class="highlighter-rouge">AbstractController</code>: <code class="highlighter-rouge">queueMemoryRead</code>.
This function takes an address and converts it to a gem5 request and
packet and sends it to across the port that is connected to this
controller. We will see how to connect this port in the
configuration section &lt;MSI-config-section&gt;. Note that we need two
different actions to send data to memory for both requests and responses
since there are two different message buffers (virtual networks) that
data might arrive on.</p>
<p>``` {.sourceCode .c++}
action(sendMemRead, “r”, desc=”Send a memory read request”) {
peek(request_in, RequestMsg) {
queueMemoryRead(in_msg.Requestor, address, toMemLatency);
}
}</p>
<p>action(sendDataToMem, “w”, desc=”Write data to memory”) {
peek(request_in, RequestMsg) {
DPRINTF(RubySlicc, “Writing memory for %#x\n”, address);
DPRINTF(RubySlicc, “Writing %s\n”, in_msg.DataBlk);
queueMemoryWrite(in_msg.Requestor, address, toMemLatency,
in_msg.DataBlk);
}
}</p>
<p>action(sendRespDataToMem, “rw”, desc=”Write data to memory from resp”) {
peek(response_in, ResponseMsg) {
DPRINTF(RubySlicc, “Writing memory for %#x\n”, address);
DPRINTF(RubySlicc, “Writing %s\n”, in_msg.DataBlk);
queueMemoryWrite(in_msg.Sender, address, toMemLatency,
in_msg.DataBlk);
}
}</p>

In this code, we also see the last way to add debug information to SLICC
protocols: `DPRINTF`. This is exactly the same as a `DPRINTF` in gem5,
except in SLICC only the `RubySlicc` debug flag is available.

block.
``` {.sourceCode .c++}
action(addReqToSharers, "aS", desc="Add requestor to sharer list") {
peek(request_in, RequestMsg) {
