Performance Modelling - RISC-V processor

This project will require you to implement cycle-accurate simulators of a 32-bit RISC-V processor in C++ or

Python. The skeleton code for the assignment is given in file (NYU_RV32I_6913.cpp or

NYU_RV32I_6913.py).

The simulators should take in two files as inputs: imem.text and dmem.txt files

The simulator should give out the following:

● cycle by cycle state of the register file (RFOutput.txt)

● Cycle by cycle microarchitectural state of the machine (StateResult.txt)

● Resulting dmem data after the execution of the program (DmemResult.txt)

The imem.txt file is used to initialize the instruction memory and the dmem.txt file is used to initialize the

data memory of the processor. Each line in the files contain a byte of data on the instruction or the data

memory and both the instruction and data memory are byte addressable. This means that for a 32 bit

processor, 4 lines in the imem.txt file makes one instruction. Both instruction and data memory are in

“Big-Endian” format (the most significant byte is stored in the smallest address).

The instructions to be supported by the processor are categorized into the following types:

The simulator should support the following set of instructions.

Mnemonic Type Full Name Psuedocode Details

ADD R Addition rd = rs1 + rs2 Store the result of rs1 + rs2 in register rd.

SUB R Subtraction rd = rs1 - rs2 Store the result of rs1 - rs2 in register rd.

XOR R Bitwise XOR rd = rs1 ^ rs2 Store the result of rs1 ^ rs2 in register rd.

OR R Bitwise OR rd = rs1 | rs2 Store the result of rs1 | rs2 in register rd.

AND R Bitwise AND rd = rs1 & rs2 Store the result of rs1 & rs2 in register rd.

ADDI I Add Immediate rd = rs1 + sign_ext(imm)

Add the sign-extended immediate to

register rs1 and store in rd. Overflow bits ignored.

XORI I XOR Immediate rd = rs1 ^ sign_ext(imm)

Bitwise XOR the sign-extended immediate to

register rs1 and store result in rd.

ORI I OR Immediate rd = rs1 | sign_ext(imm)

Bitwise OR the sign-extended immediate to

register rs1 and store result in rd.

ANDI I AND Immediate rd = rs1 & sign_ext(imm)

Bitwise AND the sign-extended immediate to

register rs1 and store result in rd.

JAL J Jump and Link

rd = PC + 4;

PC = PC + sign_ext(imm)

Jump to PC = PC + sign_ext(imm) and store the

current PC + 4 in rd.

BEQ B Branch if equal

PC = (rs1 == rs2)? PC +

sign_ext(imm) : PC + 4

Take the branch (PC = PC + sign_ext(imm)) if rs1 is

equal to rs2.

BNE B Branch if not equal

PC = (rs1 != rs2)? PC +

sign_ext(imm) : PC + 4

Take the branch (PC = PC + sign_ext(imm)) if rs1 is

not equal to rs2.

LW I Load Word

rd = mem[rs1 +

signa(imm)][31:0]

Load 32-bit value at memory address [rs1 +

signPext(imm)] and store it in rd.

SW S Store Word

data[rs1 +

sign_ext(imm)][31:0] =

rs2

Store the 32 bits of rs2 to memory address [rs1 value

+ sign_ext(imm)].

HALT - Halt execution

The simulator should have the following five stages in its pipeline:

● Instruction Fetch: Fetches instruction from the instruction memory using PC value as address.

● Instruction Decode/ Register Read: Decodes the instruction using the format in the table above

and generates control signals and data signals after reading from the register file.

● Execute: Perform operations on the data as directed by the control signals.

● Load/ Store: Perform memory related operations.

● Writeback: Write the result back into the destination register. Remember that R0 in RISC-V can

only contain the value 0.

Each stage must be preceded by a group of flip-flops to store the data to be passed on to the next stage in the

next cycle. Each stage should contain a nop bit to represent if the stage should be inactive in the following

cycle.

The simulator must be able to deal with two types of hazards.

1. RAW Hazards: RAW hazards are dealt with using either only forwarding (if possible) or, if not,

using stalling + forwarding. Use EX-ID forwarding and MEM-ID forwarding appropriately.

2. Control Flow Hazards: The branch conditions are resolved in the ID/RF stage of the pipeline.

The simulator deals with branch instructions as follows:

1. Branches are always assumed to be NOT TAKEN. That is, when a beq is fetched in the IF stage, the

PC is speculatively updated as PC+4.

2. Branch conditions are resolved in the ID/RF stage.

3. If the branch is determined to be not taken in the ID/RF stage (as predicted), then the pipeline

proceeds without disruptions. If the branch is determined to be taken, then the speculatively

fetched instruction is discarded and the nop bit is set for the ID/RR stage for the next cycle. Then

the new instruction is fetched in the next cycle using the new branch PC address.

Tasks:

1) Draw the schematic for a single stage processor and fill in your code in the to run the simulator. (20

points)

2) Draw the schematic for a five stage pipelined processor and fill in your code to run the simulator. The

processor should be able ot take care of RAW and control hazards by stalling and forwarding. (20

points)

3) Measure and report average CPI, Total execution cycles, and Instructions per cycle for both these cores

by adding performance monitors to your code. (Submit code and print results to console or a file.) (5

points)

4) Compare the results from both the single stage and the five stage pipelined processor implementations

and explain why one is better than the other. (5 points)

5) What optimizations or features can be added to improve performance? (Extra credit 1 point)

Your work will be evaluated against the 10 test cases, 3 of which will be revealed one week before the

deadline. (50 points - 5 points each)
