Walkthrough

The changes span multiple core components of the system, with key modifications including the introduction of busy-wait loops in timing functions, new static scheduling logic, and the addition of a circular buffer utility. Enhancements also involve conditional compilation directives for optimization, updates in tracepoint management for better granularity, and relevant infrastructural changes in CMakeLists.txt files to integrate the new functionalities.

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>.
    • Generate unit testing code for this file.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.
    • @coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

3-25: Ensure consistency in copyright notices.

The copyright notices for the University of Texas at Dallas and the University of California at Berkeley should be consistent with other files in the repository.


482-484: Remove unused variable opcode.

The variable opcode is unused in the lf_sched_get_ready_reaction function. Removing it will improve code readability and maintainability.

- opcode = current_schedule[*pc].opcode; // FIXME: Opcode is unused.
util/tracing/trace_to_chrome.c (2)

54-62: Consider removing commented-out code.

The commented-out scaling_factor variable may be unnecessary. If it is not intended for future use, consider removing it to improve code clarity and maintainability.


80-148: Return a constant string for unrecognized event types.

In the default case of the switch statement, consider returning a constant string (e.g., const char* unknown = "UNKNOWN"; return unknown;) instead of a literal string to avoid potential issues with string literals.

Consider renaming _lf_get_token to _lf_get_new_token and clarify the function's logic.

The comments suggest that the function name _lf_get_token is a misnomer and should be renamed to _lf_get_new_token. Additionally, the logic of calling _lf_free_token_value or _lf_done_using should be clarified.

Would you like assistance in refactoring the function name and clarifying the logic?

Avoid using a busy-wait loop.

The busy-wait loop in the wait_until function can lead to high CPU usage. It is recommended to retain the original function call to lf_clock_interruptable_sleep_until_locked or replace it with a more efficient waiting mechanism.

Address the FIXME comment regarding overflow in execute_inst_DU.

The FIXME comment indicates a potential overflow problem when wakeup_time overflows but lf_time_physical() doesn't. This should be addressed to ensure correct functionality.

Ensure proper memory alignment and handling.

Ensure that the buffer memory is properly aligned and handled to avoid potential issues.

Ensure proper type safety and usage.

Ensure that the typedefs for reg_t and imm_t are used correctly and safely.

+// Ensure proper type safety

Reset circular buffer attributes in cb_free.

To prevent potential use-after-free errors, reset other attributes of the circular buffer after freeing the memory.

void cb_free(circular_buffer *cb)
{
    free(cb->buffer);
    // clear out other fields too, just to be safe
+    cb->buffer = NULL;
+    cb->buffer_end = NULL;
+    cb->capacity = 0;
+    cb->count = 0;
+    cb->sz = 0;
+    cb->head = NULL;
+    cb->tail = NULL;
}

Improve error handling in cb_init.

If memory allocation fails, the function should free any partially allocated resources and return an error code.

void cb_init(circular_buffer *cb, size_t capacity, size_t sz)
{
    cb->buffer = malloc(capacity * sz);
    if(cb->buffer == NULL) {
        // handle error
        lf_print("ERROR: Fail to allocate memory to circular buffer.");
-        return;
+        cb->buffer_end = NULL;
+        cb->capacity = 0;
+        cb->count = 0;
+        cb->sz = 0;
+        cb->head = NULL;
+        cb->tail = NULL;
+        return -1;
    }
    cb->buffer_end = (char *)cb->buffer + capacity * sz;
    cb->capacity = capacity;
    cb->count = 0;
    cb->sz = sz;
