CHANGES

LOG:
Version 3.2.3+edits (development branch) versus 3.2.3
- Added a parameter to the cache configuration to configure the set index 
  function. Added a hash set index function to the Fermi L1 data cache for 
  the two default cache sizes, 16KB/48KB with 32/64 sets.
- Added support for named barriers.
- Added support for bar.arrive and bar.red instructions.
- Initial support for CUDA 5.0,5.5,6.0 and 7.5 to get basic sdk running (e.g., template, vectorAdd, ...). The issues required for CUDA 5.5 support were identified by the loneStarGPU group at The University of Texas at Austin and Texas State University.
- Removed intersim2 svn repository files
- Changed the makefile for cuobjdump_toptxplus,libcuda,intersim2 so that it outputs temporary files into the build directory
- Branching config file for GeForceGTX750Ti
- Branching correlation script for GeForceGTX750Ti. Modified config to fit Maxwell architecture. Modified shader.h to allow larger CTA per warp.
- Additional changes to config file to reflect Maxwell uarch.
- Bug fixes:
    - Fixed bug #81, fix ordering of pushing branch entries to the stack
    - Fixed a bug where for each icache miss we also count a hit
    - Fixed bug #88, Ejection buffer and Boundary buffer in Intersim2 initialization with a wrong node number
    - Fixed a bug where sm_version was hard coded to sm_20. Now, it extracts the highest sm version that is lower than
      the forced_max_capability configuration in GPGPUSim. 

Version 3.2.3 versus 3.2.2
- Bug fixes:
    - Fixed bug #78, added signed types to implementation of slct instruction.
    - Fixed bug #64, properly handing unsigned add.
    - Fixed bug #80, sad instruction operands were not corret.

Version 3.2.2 versus 3.2.1
- Added NVIDIA Quadro FX5600 GPGPU-Sim and GPUWattch configuration files.
- Added cache_stats class to record all memory accesses and access outcomes 
  for each cache. Switched from the legacy cache statistics recorded in 
  the tag_array to the cache access functions. Updated the cache_statistic 
  printing - providing a more meaningful breakdown. Cleaned up power_stats.cc/h
  to reflect the changes in the cache statistics.
- Adding support for cudaFuncSetCacheConfig API, that allows changing the 
  L1 Cache and Shared Memory configurations across kernels. The support 
  enables the user to specify two more configurations (Preferred L1) or
  (Preferred Shared Memory) besides the default config. If the
  cudaFuncSetCacheConfig API is used to set the cache configuration
  of a specific kernel to either of these configuration (cudaFuncCachePreferShared,
  cudaFuncCachePreferL1), the simulator will change the cache configuration
  at kernel launch accordingly, if there is no alternative configurations
  provided to the simulator it will use the default configurations with a 
  warning message display        
- Removed the use of gcc in compilation and the need for a bunch of unnecessary
  'extern "c"' statements.
- Removed print at kernel finish that dumped a warp issue histogram.
- Added new option '-liveness_message_freq'.  It throttles the number of
  simulation liveness messages printed by the timing model (defaults to 
  1 message per second in wall clock time). 
- Added breakdown for interconnection traffic based on memory access type. 
- Changes to the makefiles s.t. all intermediate files get output to the build
  directory, and nothing is written to the same directory as the source code
- Implemented the WARPSZ query in CUDA.
- Implemented a Static Warp Limiting Scheduler similar described in Rogers et. al.
  (MICRO 2012).
- Some whitespace cleanup.
- Adding an option to force global memory access to skip L1 data cache, while
  local memory accesses can still be cached in L1 data cache.  This feature can
  be used to emulate the behavior of '-Xptxas -dlcm=cg'.  
- Redesigned the memory partition microarchitecture model to allow multiple L2
  cache banks (sub partitions) in each memory partition.  Each memory partition
  contains a single DRAM scheduler, and one or more L2 cache banks.  Each L2
  cache bank has an independent port to the interconnection network.  The
  address decoder is extended to use the DRAM bank ID to assign the L2 banks
  within each memory partition.  The configuration files are changes to have a
  larger DRAM return queue to allow the credit-based arbiter between the sub
  partitions and the DRAM scheduler to tolerate the minimum DRAM latency.  
- Added a bandwidth model to throttle the cache hit bandwidth.  Now accesses
  that exceed the data port width (but still fit within a cache line) will
  occupy the cache for multiple cycles.  This allows us to decouple the L2
  cache bandwidth from the interconnect network port bandwidth.  
- Updated configurations for Geforce GTX 480 and Tesla C2050 to have two
  sub-partitions in every memory partition.  The L2 cache bank in each
  sub-partition has half the capacity of the original L2 cache bank.  Each L2
  cache bank is configured to access at most 32B/cycle.  With twice the number
  of connections to the memory partitions, the interconnection network now runs
  at half of its original speed. 
- Replaced intersim with intersim2. intersim is the original BookSim with 
  extentions to interface with GPGPU-Sim. We applied similar changes to 
  BookSim 2.0.
- Added the ability to trace all the shader cores in the SHADER_DPRINTF
- Warning fixes for various CUDA and gcc versions
- Bug Fixes:
    - Fixed icnt::full() check using wrong mf size
    - Fixed the flit count sent to GPUWattch for atomic operations. 
    - Fix for Bug 51 - Updated the function declaration of
      clCreateContextFromType(). 
    - Fix for Bug 55 - clCreateContextFromType() now accepts device type
      CL_DEVICE_TYPE_ALL, CL_DEVICE_TYPE_ACCELERATOR, CL_DEVICE_TYPE_DEFAULT
      and CL_DEVICE_TYPE_GPU.  Before only CL_DEVICE_TYPE_GPU is accepted. 
    - Fix for Bug 53 - Returning the CL_DEVICE_TYPE property in proper size
      from clGetDeviceInfo(...). 
    - Fix for Bug 54 - Added code to automatically determine workgroup size.
    - Fixing OpenCL functional simulation. Now the functional simulation routine
      is called instead of mistakenly printing that the functional simulation
      is not implemented.
    - Fixed a mismatched new[] delete[]
    - 'Constant dynamic' power not included in average/min/max power values.
    - Average/min/max per-kernel powers not being reset at kernel boundaries causing 
      incorrect per-kernel values.
    - Fixed a dependency error in the src/cuda-sim Makefile.
    - Fixing a source of non-determinism in GPGPU-Sim (Bug 147).
    - Eliminated some memory leaks in the pure functional simulator
    - Added check to AerialVision to detect and warn about performance metric
      entries with no data.  
    - Fix for Bug 63 - Changed bk[i]->n_idle++; to bk[j]->n_idle++; in
      dram_t::cycle(). 
    - Fixed the segmentation faults that occur when L2 cache is diabled.  The
      bug was introduced when GPUWattch was integrated into GPGPU-Sim. 
    - Fixed the deadlock that occurs when L1 cache is configured with
      write-back, write-allocate policy.  The fix involves generating different
      types of write-allocation requests for L1 and L2 caches, so that
      write-allocation requests from L1 cache are not consumed by the L2 cache. 
    - Fixed a bug that caused allocated local and stack memory to be not correctly
      aligned.
    - Fix for Bug 67 - updated the DRAM operaion coeff so that it adapts to different
	  calculation interval. Moved the DRAM related coeffs in XML configuration. Both  
	  gpuwattch_gtx480.xml and gpuwattch_quadrofx5600.xml are added with GDDR5/GDDR3
	  coeffs.

Version 3.2.1 versus 3.2.0
- Added kernel name and launch uids to performance statistics log.
- Added l2_cache_config class to extend baseline cache_config. Allows for
  custom, L2 cache specific functions (such as tag/set index
  generation functions).  
- For clarity, renaming '-gpgpu_dram_sched_queue_size' to
  '-gpgpu_frfcfs_dram_sched_queue_size'.
- Print the max and the average queue size statistics for FRFCFS scheduling
  only.
- New gpgpu_dram_return_queue_size option, which specifies the size of
  the return queue from the DRAM. 
- Added a dynamic_warp_id field to each shdr_warp_t. dynamic_warp_id differs
  from warp_id in that different warps
  using the same warp scheduling slot (because one warp has finished and
  another has taken it's place)
  have the same warp_id but different dynamic_warp_ids.
- Added extensions to the cache class hierarchy to allow for the use of custom
  tag_array objects.
- Added some additional const-correctness
- Added a check in cache_config to prevent configuration that specifies a
  writeback cache with allocation-on-fill policy.  The current implementation
  of the allocation-on-fill policy assumes a non-writeback cache and never
  generates any writeback traffic.  Even if the writeback traffic is generated,
  the configuration (writeback cache + allocation-on-fill) will inevitably lead
  to deadlock.  
- Added the ability plot stats with an increasing number of data points in
  aerielvision. Developers can now add statistics for plotting where the number
  of entries in each slice is not known initially.
- Added aerialvision support for profiling which warps issue on a sampling
  shader.
  This is a cycle by cycle breakdown of what warpi_ids/dynamic_warp_ids the
  shader issued on a given core over time plotted as a stacked bar chart.
  For example, by default every 500 cycles you get a colored breakdown of what
  warps issued during those cycles.
- Added DPRINTF support to gpgpusim. Allows for dynamically enabled print
  streams. Currently the warp scheduler and scoreboard use this system.
  All prints done after reading the configuration file should be moved to use
  it.
  See the manual for details on how to use the system.
- Added support in ptx_instruction to return a std::string which returns the
  ptx/ptxplus line.
- Added a Greedy Then Oldest (GTO) warp scheduler
  as described by Rogers et al.(Cache-Conscious Wavefront Scheduling
  - MICRO 45).
- Set the GTO scheduler as the default in the GTX480 configuration.
- Bug Fixes:
    - Applied patch from Kito Cheng to update libopencl for checking NULL error
      code pointer. 
    - Set the numeric locale before the parsing to a standard locale with the
      decimal point represented as "dot" not a "comma", so parsing is done
      correctly independent of the system locale.
    - Fixed L2 Writeback bug caused by using the memory partition address for 
      both the cache set index generation and for storing tag/block address. 
      Caused writebacks from the L2 to have a different address than the
      original memory request.
    - Fixed a number of warnings generated by gcc 4.7.x
    - Fixed a delete [] problem.
    - Fixed a potential issue memsetting *this to 0.
    - Fix for Bug 42 - ptx parse failure on valid ptx file (Alexander Samoilov)
    - The fix for Bug 42 uncovered a bug processing the special "null" register
      denoted by "_".  This has been fixed.
    - Fixed the implementation of the two level scheduler.
      Previously testing if an instruction was dependent on a long latency
      operation was broken
    - Fixed a bug in setup_enironment that trashed your LD_LIBRARY_PATH if
      GPGPUSIM_ROOT was not the first entry in the list;.
    - Fixed a GPUWattch bug where the performance counters were not being correctly
      reset when a kernel completes. 
    - Fixed implementation for mov.pred with literal input (need to explicitly
      treat zero as false and non-zero as true). 
    - Fix for bug 47 - Issue with generating PTXPLUS with global __device__ 
      variables: Expecting ".nv.global", provided ".nv.global.init". 
    - Fixing GPUWattch McPAT Makefile to use -m32 for 32 bit and -m64
      for 64 bit Linux. 
    - Fix for [Bug 43] Incorrect power results - new gpuwattch_gtx480.xml file
    - Fix incorrect initialization of wire_length variable in cacti/wire.cc. 
      Caused incorrect per-access cache energy.
       
Version 3.2.0 versus 3.1.2
- Added GPUWattch GPGPU power model based on McPAT 0.8beta. 

Version 3.1.2 versus 3.1.1
- Added support for CUDA 4.1 and 4.2 (PTX 3.0). 
- Added an improved and less brittle support for associating fatbins to
  sections from the output of cuobjdump
- Added raw simulation time printout back for CUDA.  
- Revived support for PTX file override via environment variables for CUDA 4.0
  onwards.
- Experimental support for libraries, currently not working because of
  undocumented functions in the cuda runtime API.
- Converted loading fat binaries to be done on demand basis
- Added support for vote.ballot instruction. 
- Added support for popc instruction. 
- Changed ssy ptxplus instructions to have their own opcode but they still act
  as a nop right now.
- Added support for converting BRX sass instructions to brx ptxplus
  instructions in cuobjdump_to_ptxplus and started work on getting the brx
  ptxplus instruction to work in gpgpusim.
- Modified the cache hierarchy (cache_t -> baseline_cache -> [read_only_cache,
  data_cache, ...])
- Enabled configurable cache policies (write-back, write-through) and
  implemented a write-allocate policy
- Added functional execution support for shared memory atomic operations
- Updated the option parser to support strings delimited by characters such as
  '=' and ';'.  This allow options with a long string of sub-options (e.g. DRAM
  timing) to have a more friendly format. 
- Changed the DRAM timing option to a more reader-friendly format. 
- Added support for the PTX version 3.0 codes generated by NVIDIA OpenCL
  drivers newer than version 256.40. 
- nvopencl_wrapper now works on machine with both AMD and NVIDIA GPUs.  It will
  automatically compile the OpenCL Kernels via the NVIDIA platform. 
- Bug Fixes:
    - Fixed a compile error that happens with newer gcc/g++ versions (4.7.1)
    - Fixed a bug with the association between cuobjdump output and cubin
      handles (Bug #7 external)
    - Adding support for atomic operations with generic memory space.  Before
      this, atomic operations can only work on global memory space.  (Bug #14
      external)
    - Fixed a bug in conversion to ptxplus that was causing local memory store
      or load instruction to be ignored.
    - Adding support for direct addressing using immediate values for the load
      and store instructions.
    - Fixed a bug that was causing inconsistency in local memory address
      calculations
    - Fixed incorrect counting of predicated instructions.  Now instructions
      are counted into gpu_sim_insn regardless of predication outcome.  (Bug
      #15 external)
    - Added support for cudaReadModeNormalizedFloat (a texture read mode). 
    - Fixed texture fetching for 1D texture with non-normalized coordinates. 
    - Fixed mult-element texel fetching (e.g. texel with RGBA components).  
    - Fixed bug where Global variables were not being declared in ptxplus.
    - Fixed bug with IADD.CARRY sass instruction conversion to addp ptxplus
      instruction.
    - Fixed bug with .half ptxplus instruction modifier showing up on the wrong
      instruction or not showing up at all. This should correct a bug where the
      instruction addresses in ptxplus are different than sass. They need to be
      the same for the brx ptxplus instruction to work.
    - Fixed a bug where the L2 cache was modelling write-back for local writes
      and write-evict for global writes - Should be write-back for all writes.
    - Fixed bug that was causing undetermistic kernel end detection inside the 
      simulation thread.
    - Fixed clCreateProgramWithSource to accept NULL or 0 as string length parameter
    - Fixed replacement of printf modifiers when compiling OpenCL code (e.g. '%f')
    - Fixed the shared memory bank conflict model for GTX 480 and Tesla C2050.
      Added options to configure the number of shared memory banks per shader
      core and to allow a more flexible broadcast mechanism. 
    - Fixed the timing model for LDU instruction, before it was not recognized
      as a memory instruction in the timing model.
    - Removed memory leak in cudaSetupArgument(). 
    - Fixed .loc directive parsing for PC-Histogram (CFLog) in AerialVision. 

Version 3.1.1 versus 3.1.0
- Add checks to top level makefile to ensure setup_environment is run and
  checks to setup_environment to ensure a compatible version of CUDA is
  installed.
- Change Fermi configuration folder name to GTX480.
- Added TeslaC2050 configuration.
- Added a two level warp scheduler (as presented at ISCA 2012 tutorial).
- Cleaner makedepend that doesn't interfere with Makefiles
- Removed a dependency on an inhouse implementation of a string list in
  cuobjdump_to_ptxplus.
- Cleaned up the information printed out to stdout/stderr during the operation
  of cuobjdump_to_ptxplus.
- Change cuobjdump_to_ptxplus to use std::string instead of char*.
- Print out instructions at branch divergence/reconvergence points
- Bug Fixes:
    - SIMT stack correctly handles recursive functions by allocating a new
      stack entry on every
      function call
    - Fixed a bug in executing call_imp and callp_imp with the pure functional
      simulation mode.
    - Fixed a couple of memory errors in cuobjdump_to_ptxplus code.
    - Implemented better support for handling memory operand type modifier
      in cuobjdump_to_ptxplus
    - Correctly handling MVC instructions in cuobjdump_to_ptxplus; now they can
      map to cvt or mov.
    - Corrected calculation of average memory latency.  Before this fix, the
      metric was only reporting the average for memory accesses from the final 
      AerialVision sampling window.  Now the metric reports average memory 
      latency for all memory accesses in the entire application run. 
    - Corrected GDDR5 parameters in Fermi configuration: 
      - Increased burst length to 8 and changed the address mapping to reflect
        16 banks as suggested by Jungrae
      - Decreased DRAM clock to 924MHz from 1848MHz. 
      - Corrected CAS Latency, Write Latency and other timing constraints. 
      - Added a new option 'dram_data_command_freq_ratio' to configure the
        frequency ratio between the DRAM data bus and command bus.  This allows
        GPGPU-Sim to support both GDDR3 (data rate = 2X command rate) and GDDR5
        (data rate = 4X command rate). 
    - Fixed the DRAM performance statistics log to display information properly
      when there are more than 4 banks in each partition (reported by Jungrae).
    - Fixing a bug in the opencl prebuilt ptx flow.
      If a kernel made modifcations to the .cl code at runtime (like changed
      the block size or some other constants) then recompiled itself, the 
      saved_embedded_ptx flag would just overwrite the same ptx file.  
      The same thing happened when using a prebuilt ptx file through
      PTX_SIM_USE_PTX_FILE - It always wanted to
      load the same ptx file even though there should have been more than one.
    - Fixed bug that caused $p3 to be used before it was initialized.

Version 3.1.0 versus 3.0.2
- Support for CUDA 4.0 for both PTX and PTXPlus.
- Support for using cuobjdump to extract PTX/SASS from binaries.
- Complete rework for the SASS to PTXPlus conversion code including support for
  code generated by cuobjdump.
- Support for configurable pipeline widths.
- Support for a configurable number of functional units within an SM.
- Model for GDDR5 bank groups.
  - GDDR5 configuration.
- Extended the result bus model to allow issuing/retiring more than one
  instructions from multiple function unit per cycle.
- Support for configurable instruction latency and initiation interval
  - Added corresponding configuration to Fermi and Quadro config files according
    to benchmark results
- Support for 64-bit atomicAdd, atomicExch, and atomicCAS. 
- Support for 32-bit floating point atomicAdd. 
- New installation instructions for AerialVision, removed deprecated install
  script.
- Rework for some makefiles
- Removed the no longer supported/used decuda_to_ptxplus
- Removed all dependencies on the boost libraries. Now GPGPU-Sim can run
  without boost.
- Added missing support for -gpgpu_perfect_mem. When enabled this option models
  a memory system with single cycle latency per memory request for accesses
  that miss in the L1 cache. Bandwidth is limited to one memory request issued
  per SIMT core cycle. Note this means uncoalesced accessess will be slower
  than coalesced accesses.
- Bug Fixes:
    - Added a missed call to operand collector writeback which fixes some
      writebacks that were not considered by the operand collector.
    - Fix for a bug that caused global symbol tables to be re-initialized after
      parsing each ptx file.
    - Fix for a rare race condition that prevented kernel stats from being
      printed
    - Fix for miscalculation of the gpu_total_sim_rate value printed at the end
      of a kernel launch
    - Fix for a bug that caused atomic accesses not to have a payload to the
      Atomic Operation Unit; atomic accesses now have a payload both to and
      from the Atomic Operation Unit
    - Fixed a bug that caused deadlock check to be omitted
    - Updated the Fermi config files such that when an access misses the L1
      data cache, it allocates a line immediately before sending a data fetch
      request out to the memory partition. 
    - Changed the writeback arbitration among multiple clients in the LDST unit
      to round-robin. 
    - Fixed a rare pathological case that caused LD instructions with divergent
      memory accesses to be overcounted.  
    - Fixed linear_to_raw_address_translation::partition_address() so that it 
      works for non-power-of-two number of memory partitions.  Before, it just 
      returns the input memory address without any change.  
    - Fixed warp_inst_t::memory_coalescing_arch_13() to use the 
      gpgpu_shmem_warp_parts option to divide up the warps in the coalescing 
      logic.  It was hardcoded to 2, which causes coalescing to always operate 
      on half-warps. 

Version 3.0.2 versus 3.0.1
- Added Fermi configuration
- Revived functional simulation mode
- AerialVision: Revived support for PC-Histogram
- AerialVision: Revived collection of source code view metrics (all except
  exposed pipeline latency)
- Added missing function implementations (caused static linking with GPGPU-Sim
  to fail).
- Fixed div_impl with 32-bit and smaller integers (Uninitialized upper bits in
  the operands was causing the instruction to behave incorrectly).
- Updated setup_environment script to handle host names with empty domains.
- Forced L2 cache line size to be greater than or equal to L1 cache line size
- L2 caches can now be disabled
- Increased Quadro config's L2 line size to 256B and total L2 size to 256kB
- Fixed generation of memory requests for local.s8 load instructions (fixed a
  bug in local memory address translation)
- Conflicting atomic accesses now generate multiple requests during coalescing
- Updated Doxygen scripts
- Fixed dump pipeline in case of L1 disabled.
- Fixed a bug in the debug printing system by making the enum and string array
  use the same list
- Fixed a bug where the ldst_unit::cycle and ldst_unit::writeback were being
  processed at different rates
- Changes to setup_environment to prevent path explosion and crashing due to
  empty host domain name
- Changed the remote OpenCL compilation to use rsync instead of scp (scp had
  issues with concurrent copying).
- Fixed the data collection code for the following metrics (in 3.0.0 and 3.0.1
  they were only counting memory instructions that generate off-core traffic):
  gpgpu_n_load_insn
  gpgpu_n_store_insn
  gpgpu_n_shmem_insn
  gpgpu_n_tex_insn
  gpgpu_n_const_mem_insn
  gpgpu_n_param_mem_insn
- Fixed a bug where the PTX load and store instructions' input address register 
  dependencies were not being registered with the scoreboard. 
- Updated how pending hits in data cache are reported (3.0.0 and 3.0.1 reports 
  the difference between the number of cache misses and pending hits). 
- Fixed a bug where a configuration with non power-of-two number of memory 
  partitions can cause two different linear address to be aliased into the 
  same intra-partition address at the same memory partition. 

Version 3.0.1 versus 3.0.0b

- Added prints for L1 data cache statistics
- SIMD width option removed from shader_core_pipeline_opt (was not used)
- Added read-to-precharge constraint in DRAM
- Disabled Stream Manager's verbose output by default, use debug level 3 to 
  enable it
- Addresses returned by memory allocation are now 256 bytes aligned

  network and L2 cache happens in the L2 clock domain instead of interconnect 
  clock domain.

- Added dynamic warp formation timing model (see MICRO'07, ACM TACO'09 papers)
- Updated gpgpusim.config and mesh in benchmark subdirectories to be similar to
  ISPASS 2009 paper baseline configurations
- Added OpenGL interoperability support
- Added support for parsing embedded PTX files without requiring recompilation 
  (suggested by Gregory Diamos)
- Improved support for texture filtering (linear mode for 2D, closer agreement
  to hardware for 2D point sampling where sample points are close to texel
  boundaries)
- Benchmark examples updated to version from CUDA 2.2 SDK (NOTE: these will not 
  compile with earlier CUDA installations. However, GPGPU-Sim should still work 
  with applications written for older versions of CUDA.)
- Fixed splash screen: was reporting incorrect version
- Fixed bug comparing strings in basic block formation code
- Fixed bug with additional basic block (which lead to incorrect postdominator 
  analysis on some benchmarks with recent versions of CUDA)
- Fixed "warning: "/*" within comment" when building.
- "Other general improvements"
