<h3>Speed and emulation modes</h3> |
66 |
|
67 |
So, how fast is GXemul? There is no good answer to this. There is |
68 |
especially no answer to the question <b>What is the slowdown factor?</b>, |
69 |
because the host architecture and emulated architecture can usually not be |
70 |
compared just like that. |
71 |
|
72 |
<p>Performance depends on several factors, including (but not limited to) |
73 |
host architecture, host clock speed, which compiler and compiler flags |
74 |
were used to build the emulator, what the workload is, and so on. For |
75 |
example, if an emulated operating system tries to read a block from disk, |
76 |
from its point of view the read was instantaneous (no waiting). So 1 MIPS |
77 |
in an emulated OS might have taken more than one million instructions on a |
78 |
real machine. |
79 |
|
80 |
<p>Also, if the emulator says it has executed 1 million instructions, and |
81 |
the CPU family in question was capable of scalar execution (i.e. one cycle |
82 |
per instruction), it might still have taken more than 1 million cycles on |
83 |
a real machine because of cache misses and similar micro-architectural |
84 |
penalties that are not simulated by GXemul. |
85 |
|
86 |
<p>Because of these issues, it is in my opinion best to measure |
87 |
performance as the actual (real-world) time it takes to perform a task |
88 |
with the emulator. Typical examples would be "How long does it take to |
89 |
install NetBSD?", or "How long does it take to compile XYZ inside NetBSD |
90 |
in the emulator?". |
91 |
|
92 |
<p>The emulation technique used varies depending on which processor type |
93 |
is being emulated. (One of my main goals with GXemul is to experiment with |
94 |
different kinds of emulation, so these might change in the future.) |
95 |
|
96 |
<ul> |
97 |
<li><b>MIPS</b><br> |
98 |
There are two emulation modes. The most important one is an |
99 |
implementation of a <i>dynamic binary translator</i>. |
100 |
(Compared to real binary translators, though, GXemul's bintrans |
101 |
subsystem is very simple and does not perform very well.) |
102 |
This mode can be used on Alpha and i386 host. The other emulation |
103 |
mode is simple interpretation, where an instruction is read from |
104 |
emulated memory, and interpreted one-at-a-time. (Slow, but it |
105 |
works. It can be forcefully used by using the <tt>-B</tt> command |
106 |
line option.) |
107 |
<p> |
108 |
<li><b>ARM</b><br> |
109 |
This mode does not really work yet, but will use |
110 |
dynamic translation, but not binary translation. Stay tuned. :-) |
111 |
<p> |
112 |
<li><b>URISC</b><br> |
113 |
Simple interpretation, one instruction at a time. There is probably |
114 |
no other way to emulate URISC, because it relies too heavily |
115 |
on self-modifying code. |
116 |
<p> |
117 |
<li><b>POWER/PowerPC</b><br> |
118 |
This emulation mode is very much unfinished, but still enabled by |
119 |
default. So far it uses plain interpretation, where an instruction |
120 |
is read from emulated memory, and interpreted one at a time. |
121 |
Slow. Not very interesting. |
122 |
<p> |
123 |
<li><b>x86</b><br> |
124 |
Although too unstable and non-working to be enabled by default, |
125 |
there is some code for emulating x86 machines. It simply reads |
126 |
one instruction at a time from emulated memory, and executes it. |
127 |
This is as slow as it gets. Not very interesting. |
128 |
</ul> |
129 |
|
130 |

<h3>Networking</h3> |
139 |
|
140 |
<font color="#ff0000">NOTE/TODO: This section is very old and a bit |
141 |
out of date.</font> |
142 |
|
143 |
<p>Running an entire operating system under emulation is very interesting |
144 |
in itself, but for several reasons, running a modern OS without access to |
145 |
TCP/IP networking is a bit akward. Hence, I feel the need to implement |
146 |
TCP/IP (networking) support in the emulator. |
147 |
|
148 |
<p> |
149 |
As far as I have understood it, there seems to be two different ways to go: |
150 |
|
151 |
<ol> |
152 |
<li>Forward ethernet packets from the emulated ethernet controller to |
153 |
the host machine's ethernet controller, and capture incoming |
154 |
packets on the host's controller, giving them back to the |
155 |
emulated OS. Characteristics are: |
156 |
<ul> |
157 |
<li>Requires <i>direct</i> access to the host's NIC, which |
158 |
means on most platforms that the emulator cannot be |
159 |
run as a normal user! |
160 |
<li>Reduced portability, as not every host operating system |
161 |
uses the same programming interface for dealing with |
162 |
hardware ethernet controllers directly. |
163 |
<li>When run on a switched network, it might be problematic to |
164 |
connect from the emulated OS to the OS running on the |
165 |
host, as packets sent out on the host's NIC are not |
166 |
received by itself. (?) |
167 |
<li>All specific networking protocols will be handled by the |
168 |
physical network. |
169 |
</ul> |
170 |
<p> |
171 |
or |
172 |
<p> |
173 |
<li>Whenever the emulated ethernet controller wishes to send a packet, |
174 |
the emulator looks at the packet and creates a response. Packets |
175 |
that can have an immediate response never go outside the emulator, |
176 |
other packet types have to be converted into suitable other |
177 |
connection types (UDP, TCP, etc). Characteristics: |
178 |
<ul> |
179 |
<li>Each packet type sent out on the emulated NIC must be handled. |
180 |
This means that I have to do a lot of coding. |
181 |
(I like this, because it gives me an opportunity to |
182 |
learn about networking protocols.) |
183 |
<li>By not relying on access to the host's NIC directly, |
184 |
portability is maintained. (It would be sad if the networking |
185 |
portion of a portable emulator isn't as portable as the |
186 |
rest of the emulator.) |
187 |
<li>The emulator can be run as a normal user process, does |
188 |
not require root privilegies. |
189 |
<li>Connecting from the emulated OS to the host's OS should |
190 |
not be problematic. |
191 |
<li>The emulated OS will experience the network just as a single |
192 |
machine behind a NAT gateway/firewall would. The emulated |
193 |
OS is thus automatically protected from the outside world. |
194 |
</ul> |
195 |
</ol> |
196 |
|
197 |
<p> |
198 |
Some emulators/simulators use the first approach, while others use the |
199 |
second. I think that SIMH and QEMU are examples of emulators using the |
200 |
first and second approach, respectively. |
201 |
|
202 |
<p> |
203 |
Since I have choosen the second kind of implementation, I have to write |
204 |
support explicitly for any kind of network protocol that should be |
205 |
supported. As of 2004-07-09, the following has been implemented and seems |
206 |
to work under at least NetBSD/pmax and OpenBSD/pmax under DECstation 5000/200 |
207 |
emulation (-E dec -e 3max): |
208 |
|
209 |
<p> |
210 |
<ul> |
211 |
<li>ARP requests sent out from the emulated NIC are interpreted, |
212 |
and converted to ARP responses. (This is used by the emulated OS |
213 |
to find out the MAC address of the gateway.) |
214 |
<li>ICMP echo requests (that is the kind of packet produced by the |
215 |
<b><tt>ping</tt></b> program) are interpreted and converted to ICMP echo |
216 |
replies, <i>regardless of the IP address</i>. This means that |
217 |
running ping from within the emulated OS will <i>always</i> |
218 |
receive a response. The ping packets never leave the emulated |
219 |
environment. |
220 |
<li>UDP packets are interpreted and passed along to the outside world. |
221 |
If the emulator receives an UDP packet from the outside world, it |
222 |
is converted into an UDP packet for the emulated OS. (This is not |
223 |
implemented very well yet, but seems to be enough for nameserver |
224 |
lookups, tftp file transfers, and NFS mounts using UDP.) |
225 |
<li>TCP packets are interpreted one at a time, similar to how UDP |
226 |
packets are handled (but more state is kept for each connection). |
227 |
<font color="#ff0000">NOTE: Much of the TCP handling code is very |
228 |
ugly and hardcoded.</font> |
229 |
<!-- |
230 |
<li>RARP is not implemented yet. (I haven't needed it so far.) |
231 |
--> |
232 |
</ul> |
233 |
|
234 |
<p> |
235 |
The gateway machine, which is the only "other" machine that the emulated |
236 |
OS sees on its emulated network, works as a NAT-style firewall/gateway. It |
237 |
usually has a fixed IPv4 address of <tt>10.0.0.254</tt>. An OS running in |
238 |
the emulator would usually have an address of the form <tt>10.x.x.x</tt>; |
239 |
a typical choice would be <tt>10.0.0.1</tt>. |
240 |
|
241 |
<p> |
242 |
Inside emulated NetBSD/pmax or OpenBSD/pmax, running the following |
243 |
commands should configure the emulated NIC: |
244 |
<pre> |
245 |
# <b>ifconfig le0 10.0.0.1</b> |
246 |
# <b>route add default 10.0.0.254</b> |
247 |
add net default: gateway 10.0.0.254 |
248 |
</pre> |
249 |
|
250 |
<p> |
251 |
If you want nameserver lookups to work, you need a valid /etc/resolv.conf |
252 |
as well: |
253 |
<pre> |
254 |
# <b>echo nameserver 129.16.1.3 > /etc/resolv.conf</b> |
255 |
</pre> |
256 |
(But replace <tt>129.16.1.3</tt> with the actual real-world IP address of |
257 |
your nearest nameserver.) |
258 |
|
259 |
<p> |
260 |
Now, host lookups should work: |
261 |
<pre> |
262 |
# <b>host -a www.netbsd.org</b> |
263 |
Trying null domain |
264 |
rcode = 0 (Success), ancount=2 |
265 |

279 |
</pre> |
280 |
|
281 |
<p> |
282 |
At this point, UDP and TCP should (mostly) work. |
283 |
|
284 |
<p> |
285 |
Here is an example of how to configure a server machine and an emulated |
286 |
client machine for sharing files via NFS: |
287 |
|
288 |
<p> |
289 |
(This is very useful if you want to share entire directory trees |
290 |
between the emulated environment and another machine. These instruction |
291 |
will work for FreeBSD, if you are running something else, use your |
292 |
imagination to modify them.) |
293 |
|
294 |
<p> |
295 |
<ul> |
296 |
<li>On the server, add a line to your /etc/exports file, exporting |
297 |
the files you wish to use in the emulator:<pre> |
298 |
<b>/tftpboot -mapall=nobody -ro 123.11.22.33</b> |
299 |
</pre> |
300 |
where 123.11.22.33 is the IP address of the machine running the |
301 |
emulator process, as seen from the outside world. |
302 |
<p> |
303 |
<li>Then start up the programs needed to serve NFS via UDP. Note the |
304 |
-n argument to mountd. This is needed to tell mountd to accept |
305 |
connections from unprivileged ports (because the emulator does |
306 |
not need to run as root).<pre> |
307 |
# <b>portmap</b> |
308 |
# <b>nfsd -u</b> <--- u for UDP |
309 |
# <b>mountd -n</b> |
310 |
</pre> |
311 |
<li>In the guest OS in the emulator, once you have ethernet and IPv4 |
312 |
configured so that you can use UDP, mounting the filesystem |
313 |
should now be possible: (this example is for NetBSD/pmax |
314 |
or OpenBSD/pmax)<pre> |
315 |
# <b>mount -o ro,-r=1024,-w=1024,-U,-3 my.server.com:/tftpboot /mnt</b> |
316 |
or |
317 |
# <b>mount my.server.com:/tftpboot /mnt</b> |
318 |
</pre> |
319 |
If you don't supply the read and write sizes, there is a risk |
320 |
that the default values are too large. The emulator currently |
321 |
does not handle fragmentation/defragmentation of <i>outgoing</i> |
322 |
packets, so going above the ethernet frame size (1518) is a very |
323 |
bad idea. Incoming packets (reading from nfs) should work, though, |
324 |
for example during an NFS install. |
325 |
</ul> |
326 |
|
327 |
The example above uses read-only mounts. That is enough for things like |
328 |
letting NetBSD/pmax or OpenBSD/pmax install via NFS, without the need for |
329 |
a CDROM ISO image. You can use a read-write mount if you wish to share |
330 |
files in both directions, but then you should be aware of the |
331 |
fragmentation issue mentioned above. |
332 |
|
333 |
<p>TODO: Write a section on how to connect multiple emulator instances. |
334 |
(Using the <tt>local_port</tt> and <tt>add_remote</tt> configuration file |
335 |

<li>And last but not least, the device should have an access function. |
428 |
The access function is called whenever there is a load or store |
429 |
to an address which is in the device' memory mapped region. |
430 |

431 |
int dev_foo_access(struct cpu *cpu, struct memory *mem, |

/* .... */ |
441 |
} |

444 |
memory_writemax64(cpu, data, len, odata); |

/* Perhaps interrupts need to be asserted or |
447 |
deasserted: */ |
448 |
dev_foo_tick(cpu, extra); |
449 |
|
450 |
/* Return successfully. */ |
451 |
return 1; |
452 |
} |
453 |
</pre><br> |
454 |
</ul> |
455 |
|
456 |
<p> |
457 |
The return value of the access function has until 2004-07-02 been a |
458 |
true/false value; 1 for success, or 0 for device access failure. A device |
459 |
access failure (on MIPS) will result in a DBE exception. |
460 |
|
461 |
<p> |
462 |
Some devices are converted to support arbitrary memory latency |
463 |
values. The return value is the number of cycles that the read or |
464 |
write access took. A value of 1 means one cycle, a value of 10 means 10 |
465 |
cycles. Negative values are used for device access failures, and the |
466 |
absolute value of the value is then the number of cycles; a value of -5 |
467 |
means that the access failed, and took 5 cycles. |
468 |
|
469 |
<p> |
470 |
To be compatible with pre-20040702 devices, a return value of 0 is treated |
471 |
by the caller (in <tt>src/memory_rw.c</tt>) as a value of -1. |

<h3>Regression tests</h3> |
480 |
|
481 |
In order to make sure that the emulator actually works like it is supposed |
482 |
to, it must be tested. For this purpose, there is a simple regression |
483 |
testing framework in the <tt>tests/</tt> directory. |
484 |
|
485 |
<p> |
486 |
<i>NOTE: The regression testing framework is basically just a skeleton so far. |
487 |
Regression tests are very good to have. However, the fact that complete |
488 |
operating systems can run in the emulator indicate that the emulation is |
489 |
probably not too incorrect. This makes it less of a priority to write |
490 |
regression tests.</i> |
491 |
|
492 |
<p> |
493 |
To run all the regression tests, type <tt>make regtest</tt>. Each assembly |
494 |
language file matching the pattern <tt>test_*.S</tt> will be compiled and |
495 |
linked into a 64-bit MIPS ELF (using a gcc cross compiler), and run in the |
496 |
emulator. If everything goes well, you should see something like this: |

Each test writes output to stdout, and there is a <tt>test_*.good</tt> for |
538 |
each <tt>.S</tt> file which contains the wanted output. If the actual |
539 |
output matches the <tt>.good</tt> file, then the test passes, otherwise it |
540 |
fails. |
