Use physical addresses for LR/SC reservations
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This is how reservation is architecturally defined, how real CPUs are likely to be implemented, and doesn't require spurious cancellations on xRET and traps.

Fixes #360.

/* We could set load-reservations on physical or virtual addresses.
* For now we set them on virtual addresses, since it makes the
* sequential model of SC a bit simpler, at the cost of an explicit
* call to load_reservation in LR and cancel_reservation in SC.
* However most chips (especially multi-core) will use physical addresses.
* Additionally, matching on physical addresses allows as many SC's to
* succeed as the spec allows. This simplifies verification against real chips
* since you can force spurious failures from a DUT into the Sail model and
* then compare the result (a kind of one-way waiver). Using virtual addresses
* requires cancelling the reservation in some additional places, e.g. xRET, and
* that will break comparison with a DUT that doesn't require cancellation there.
