### set up ERAT autoload at reset
|
|
|
|
* iuq_ic_ierat and lq_derat, bcfg_q (2 entries I & D)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
//------------------------------------------------
|
|
// scan only latches for boot config
|
|
//------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
// epn rpn u0:3 E
|
|
// 0 31 32 51 52 54 61 62 81 86
|
|
// 0 31 32 51 22 24 31 32 51
|
|
//init => "0000_0000_0000_0000_0000_0000_0000_0000_1111_1111_1111_1111_1111_11_1111_1111_1111_1111_1111_1111_1111_0000_0",
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### special rings
|
|
|
|
* tri_slat_scan's seem to be the comps used for core config and boot config
|
|
|
|
### reg bits
|
|
|
|
* erat-only
|
|
|
|
* These two modes are termed “MMU mode” and “ERAT-only mode”. This mode controlled by the CCR2[NOTLB] bit.
|
|
|
|
* mmu may be configurable to table-walk but not have a TLB(?) This would allow the erats and htw to be changed for radix before implementing
|
|
the TLB logic.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### translation
|
|
|
|
* ERAT holes (UM 6.2.3)
|
|
|
|
The rules for configuring an exclusion range “hole” for a given TLB entry and placing one or more pages
|
|
within the “hole” are as follows:
|
|
|
|
1. Only TLB entries with page sizes greater than 4 KB can have an exclusion range hole enabled via X = 1.
|
|
2. A virtual address to be translated that falls within the hole will not match this TLB entry.
|
|
3. The size of the hole configured must be smaller than the page size of this TLB entry.
|
|
4. The size of the hole is configurable to 2 n 4 KB, where n = 0 to log 2 (entry size in bytes) - 13.
|
|
5. The legal binary values of the unused EPN bits of a given TLB entry are contained in the set defined by
|
|
2 n - 1, where n = 0 to log 2 (entry size in bytes) - 13.
|
|
6. Other TLB entries of valid page sizes (less than or equal to the hole size) can be mapped into the hole.
|
|
7. Multiple other TLB entries can be mapped into the hole simultaneously.
|
|
8. Not all of the address space defined by the hole needs to be mapped by other entries.
|
|
9. Pages mapped in the hole must be page-size aligned.
|
|
10. Pages mapped in the hole must not overlap.
|
|
11. Pages mapped in the hole must be collectively fully contained within the hole.
|
|
|
|
* Page sizes
|
|
|
|
* UM 6.17.3 says
|
|
|
|
> Supported values of the PS field for this implementation include:
|
|
0b0010 (4 KB for sub-page size of 4 KB only), 0b0110 (64 KB), 0b1010 (1 MB), and
|
|
0b1110 (16 MB).
|
|
|
|
Is this correct? No 1G size? The logic (iuq_ic_ierat) says:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
parameter [0:2] CAM_PgSize_1GB = 3'b110;
|
|
parameter [0:2] CAM_PgSize_16MB = 3'b111;
|
|
parameter [0:2] CAM_PgSize_1MB = 3'b101;
|
|
parameter [0:2] CAM_PgSize_64KB = 3'b011;
|
|
parameter [0:2] CAM_PgSize_4KB = 3'b001;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* UM also says:
|
|
|
|
>Variable page sizes for direct (IND=0) entries (4KB, 64KB, 1MB, 16MB, 1GB), simultaneously resi-
|
|
dent in TLB and/or ERAT, and indirect (IND=1) entries (1 MB and 256 MB) in TLB
|
|
|
|
>The MMU divides the address space into pages. Five direct (IND=0) page sizes (4KB, 64KB, 1MB, 16MB,
|
|
1GB) are simultaneously supported,
|
|
|
|
### implementing radix
|
|
|
|
Possible:
|
|
|
|
1. toss all of MMU and rewrite using MMU interface; update ERAT entries as necessary
|
|
2. keep everything and change HTW/TLB for radix (plus ERATs)
|
|
3. do in steps; get ERATS+HTW working and then add TLB logic
