Project 2

CDA 4102 / CDA 5155: Fall 2020

Due Date: November 24, 2020 at 11:30 pm

You are not allowed to take or give help in completing this project. No late submission will be accepted.

Please include the following sentence on top of your source file:

On my honor, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this assignment.

In this project you will create a simulator for a pipelined processor. Your simulator should be capable of

loading a specified MIPS text file (see sample.txt) and generate the cycle-by-cycle simulation of the MIPS

code. It should also produce/print the contents of registers, queues, and memory data for each cycle. No

need to handle exceptions of any kind. For example, test cases will not try to execute data (from data

segment) as instructions, or load/store data from instruction segment. Similarly, there will not be any

invalid opcodes or less than 32-bit instructions in the input file, etc.

Please develop your project in one source file (written in C, C++, Java or Python) to avoid the stress of

combining multiple files before submission and making sure it still works correctly. Please follow the

Submission Policy which is at the end of this document to submit your source file. Your MIPS simulator

(with executable name as MIPSsim) should accept an input file (inputfilename.txt) in the following

command format and produce output file (simulation.txt) that contains the simulation trace. In this

project, you do not have to produce disassembly file.

MIPSsim inputfilename.txt

Correct handling of the sample input file (with possible different data values) will be used to determine

60% of the credit. The remaining 40% will be determined from other test cases that you will not have

access prior to grading. It is recommended that you construct your own sample input files with which to

further test your simulator.

Instruction Format: The instruction format and other details (e.g., starting address) remain the same as

Project 1 (see the PDF: https://www.cise.ufl.edu/~prabhat/Teaching/cda5155-f20/projects/project1.html).

The entire pipeline is synchronized by a single clock signal. The white boxes represent the functional

units, the blue boxes represent queues between the units, the yellow boxes represent registers and the

green one is the memory unit. In the remainder of this section, we describe the functionality of each of

the units/queues/memories in detail. We use the terms “the end of cycle” and “the beginning of cycle”

interchangeably in following discussion. Both of them refer to the rising edge of the clock signal, i.e., the

end of the previous cycle implies the beginning of the next cycle.

Instruction Fetch/Decode (IF):

Instruction Fetch/Decode unit can fetch and decode at most two instruction at each cycle (in program

order). The unit should check all the following conditions before it can fetch further instructions.

• If the fetch unit is stalled at the end of last cycle, no instruction can be fetched at the current cycle.

The fetch unit can be stalled due to a branch instruction.

• If there is no empty slot in the Pre-issue queue at the end of the last cycle, no instruction can be

fetched at the current cycle.

Normally, the whole fetch-decode operation can be finished in 1 cycle. The decoded instruction will be

placed in Pre-issue queue before the end of the current cycle. If a branch instruction is fetched, the fetch

unit will try to read all the necessary registers to calculate the target address. If all the registers are ready

(or target is immediate), it will update PC before the end of the current cycle. Otherwise the unit is stalled

until the required registers are available. In other words, if registers are ready (or immediate target value)

at the end of the last cycle, the branch does not introduce any penalty.

There are two possible scenarios when a branch instruction (J, JR, BEQ, BLTZ, BGTZ) is fetched along

with another instruction. The branch can be the first instruction or the last instruction in the pair

(remember, up to two instructions can be fetched per cycle). When a branch instruction is fetched with its

next (in-order) instruction (first scenario), the next instruction will be discarded immediately (needs to be

re-fetched again based on the branch outcome). When the branch is the last instruction in the pair (second

scenario), both are decoded as usual.

Note that the register accesses are synchronized. The value read from register file in the current cycle is

the value of corresponding register at the end of the previous cycle. In other words, any functional units

cannot obtain the new register values written by WB in the same cycle.

When a BREAK instruction is fetched, the fetch unit will not fetch any more instructions.

All branch instructions, BREAK instruction and NOP instruction will not be written to Pre-issue queue. It

is important to note that we still need free entries in the pre-issue queue at the end of last cycle before the

fetch unit fetches them, because the fetch cannot predict the types of instructions before fetching and

decoding them.

Pre-issue Queue: Pre-Issue Queue has 4 entries; each entry can store one instruction. The instructions are

sorted by their program order, the entry 0 always contains the oldest and the entry 3 contains the newest.

Issue Unit: Issue unit follows the basic Scoreboard algorithm to read operands from Register File and

issue instructions when all the source operands are ready. It can issue at most two instruction out-oforder

per cycle. It can send at most one load or store (LW or SW) instructions per cycle to the Pre-ALU1

queue, and at most one non load/store (except LW or SW) instructions per cycle to the Pre-ALU2 queue.

When an instruction is issued, it is removed from the Pre-issue Queue before the end of current cycle. The

issue unit searches from entry 0 to entry 3 (in that order) of Pre-issue queue and issues instructions if:

• No structural hazards (the corresponding queue, i.e., Pre-ALU1 or Pre-ALU2 has empty slots at the

end of the last cycle);

• No RAW or WAW hazards with active instructions (issued but not finished, or earlier not-issued

instructions).

• If two instructions are issued in a cycle, you need to make sure that there are no WAW or WAR

hazards between them.

• No WAR hazards with earlier not-issued instructions;

• For MEM instructions, all the source registers are ready at the end of the last cycle.

• The load instruction must wait until all the previous stores are issued.

• The stores must be issued in order.

Pre-ALU1 queue: The Pre-ALU1 queue has two entries. Each entry can store one memory (LW or SW)

instruction with its operands. The queue is managed as FIFO (in-order) queue.

Pre-ALU2 queue: The Pre-ALU2 queue has two entries. Each entry can store one ALU (any instruction

except LW or SW) instruction with its operands. The queue is managed as FIFO (in-order) queue.

ALU1: ALU1 handles the calculation of address for memory (LW and SW) instructions. ALU1 can fetch

one instruction each cycle from the Pre-ALU1 queue, removes it from the Pre-ALU1 queue (at the

beginning of the current cycle) and computes it. The instruction and its result will be written into the PreMEM

queue at the end of the current cycle. Note that ALU1 starts execution even if the Pre-MEM queue

is occupied (full) at the beginning of the current cycle. This is because MEM is guaranteed to consume

(remove) the entry from the Pre-MEM queue before the end of the current cycle.

ALU2: ALU2 handles the calculation of all non-memory instructions. All the instructions take one cycle.

The ALU can fetch one instruction each cycle from the Pre-ALU2 queue, removes it from the Pre-ALU2

queue (at the beginning of the current cycle) and compute it. The instruction and its result will be written

into the Post-ALU2 queue at the end of the current cycle. Note that ALU2 starts execution even if the

Post-ALU2 queue is occupied (full) at the beginning of the current cycle. This is because WB is

guaranteed to consume (remove) the entry from the Post-ALU2 queue before the end of the current cycle.

Post-ALU2 queue: This queue has one entry. This entry can store one instruction with destination

register id and the result.

Pre-MEM queue: The Pre-MEM queue has one entry. This entry can store one memory instruction (LW,

SW) with its operands.

MEM Unit: The MEM unit handles LW and SW instructions. It reads from Pre-MEM queue. For LW

instruction, MEM takes one cycle to read the data from memory. When a LW instruction finishes, the

instruction with destination register id and the data will be written to the Post-MEM queue before the end

of the current cycle. Note that MEM starts execution even if the Post-MEM queue is occupied (full) at the

beginning of the current cycle. This is because WB is guaranteed to consume (remove) the entry from the

Post-MEM queue before the end of the current cycle. For SW instruction, MEM also takes one cycle to

finish (write the data to memory). When a SW instruction finishes, nothing would be sent to Post-MEM

queue.

Post-MEM queue: Post-MEM queue has one entry that can store one LW instruction with destination

register id and data.

WB Unit: WB unit can execute up to two writebacks in one cycle consisting of at most one from PostMEM

queue and at most one from Post-ALU2 queue. It updates the Register File based on the content of

both Post-ALU2 Queue (any instruction except LW or SW) and Post-MEM Queue (LW). The update

finishes before the end of the cycle. The new value will be available at the beginning of the next cycle.

PC: It records the address of the next instruction to fetch. It should be set to 256 at the initialization.

Register File: There are 32 registers. Assume that there are sufficient read/write ports to support all kinds

of read write operations from different functional units.

Notes on Pipelines:

1. The simulation finishes when the BREAK instruction is fetched. In other words, the last clock

cycle that you print in the simulation output is the one where BREAK is fetched (shown in the

“Executed Instruction” field). In other words, there may be unfinished instructions in the pipeline

when you stop the simulation (see the sample_simulation.txt to see it ended).

2. No data forwarding.

3. No delay slot will be used for branch instructions.

4. Different instructions take different stages to finish.

a. NOP, Branch, BREAK: only IF;

b. SW: IF, Issue, ALU1, MEM;

c. LW: IF, Issue, ALU1, MEM, WB;

d. Other instructions: IF, Issue, ALU2, WB.

Output format

For each cycle, you should output the whole state of the processor and the memory at the end of each

cycle. If any entry in a queue is empty, no content for that entry should be printed. The instruction should

be printed as in Project 1.

Submission Policy:

Please follow the submission policy outlined below. There can be up to 10% score penalty based on the

nature of submission policy violations.

1. Please develop your project in one source file. In other words, you cannot submit your project if

you have designed it using multiple source files. Please add “.txt” at the end of your filename. Your

file name must be MIPSsim (e.g., MIPSsim.c.txt or MIPSsim.cpp.txt or MIPSsim.java.txt or

MIPSsim.py.txt). On top of the source file, please include the sentence: /* On my honor, I have

neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this assignment */.

2. Please test your submission. These are the exact steps we will follow too.

o Download your submission from eLearning (ensures that your upload was successful).

o Remove “.txt” extension (e.g., MIPSsim.c.txt should be renamed to MIPSsim.c)

o Login to thunder.cise.ufl.edu or storm.cise.ufl.edu. If you don’t have a CISE account, go to

https://register.cise.ufl.edu/register/ and apply for one CISE class account. Then you use putty

and winscp or other tools to login. Ideally, if your program works on any Linux machine, it

should work when we run them. However, if you get correct results on a Windows or MAC

system, we may not get the same results when we run on storm or thunder. To avoid this

headache and time waste, we strongly recommend you to test your program on a CISE server

(thunder or storm).

o Please compile to produce an executable named MIPSsim.

▪ gcc MIPSsim.c –o MIPSsim or javac MIPSsim.java or g++ MIPSsim.cpp –o MIPSsim or

g++ -std=c++17 MIPSsim.cpp –o MIPSsim or

o Please do not print anything on screen.

o Please do not hardcode input filename, accept it as a command line option.

o Please hardcode your output filename as simulation.txt.

o Execute to generate simulation file and test with the correct/provided version.

▪ ./MIPSsim inputfilename.txt or java MIPSsim inputfilename.txt or

./MIPSsim.py inputfilename.txt or python3 MIPSsim.py inputfilename.txt

▪ diff –w –B simulation.txt sample_simulation.txt

3. In previous years, there were many cases where output format was different, filename was different,

command line arguments were different, or e-Learning submission was missing, etc. All of these led to

un-necessary frustration and waste of time for the instructor and students. Please use the exactly

same commands as outlined above to avoid 10% score penalty.

4. You are not allowed to take or give any help in completing this project. Some students violated

academic honesty (e.g., overlap with some online code) in Project 1 this semester. The students

received “0” in the project and their names were reported to UF Dean of Students Office (DSO). If

your name is already in DSO for an earlier violation in this or another course, the penalty for second

offence is determined by DSO. In the past, two students from my class were suspended for a semester

due to repeat academic honesty violation (implies deportation for international students).
