문제
2단계 cache simulator를 구현하여라. LRU와 FIFO 정책을 지원해야 한다. 명령 인수로 초기 조건(set index bits, block offset bits, associativity, verbosity, trace file)을 받아야 한다.
필요한 사전 지식
- Linux Shell 사용법
- Cache 작동 방식
- C 언어의 코딩 협약(convention)
대면 소감
사형 선고와도 같았다. 나는 Linux Shell을 쓸 줄도 몰랐고, Cache 작동 방식도 문제만 적당히 풀 수 있을 정도로 어렴풋이 알고 있었으며, C 언어로는 코테 문제만 좀 끄적여본 게 다였다. 그나마 Skeleton Code를 주셔서 다행이었다.
테스트 방식
- 주어진 trace에 적힌 명령어(예시 : L, 0x10, 1)를 읽어서, 주어진 csim-ref와 같은 결과를 출력하면 된다.
- 출력해야 할 값으로는 L1_Hit, L1_Miss, L1_Eviction, L2 ~~~, Mem_Write 등이 있다.
삽질 과정
Windows를 쓰고 있었기에, 어찌저찌 WSL를 깔았다. 그 후, Linux 전용 컴파일 문구와 ls, cd 같은 간단한 명령어를 익혔다.
테스트를 편하게 하기 위해서 복붙해놓은 명령어들;
정답 simulator (csim-ref)
./csim-ref -v -s 2 -E 2 -b 2 -p 0 -t traces/yi.trace
compile & build
gcc -g -o csim.exe csim.c cachelab.c -lm
검사
./csim.exe -v -s 2 -E 2 -b 2 -p 0 -t traces/yi.trace
./csim.exe -v -s 2 -E 2 -b 2 -p 1 -t traces/yi.trace
cachelab.h
cachelab.c를 위한 헤더 파일이다. arrCount로 결과를 출력해야 한다. 헤더 파일이 두 번 이상 포함되지 않도록 #ifndef로 헤더 가드를 만든 점이 인상깊다. 이외에도 verbosity, policy와 같은 핵심 인수들이 선언되어 있다.

csim.c
이런 Skeleton Code를 볼 때는, main 함수부터 읽어야 한다고 들었다. 대략적인 흐름은; 명령인수 읽기, 캐시들의 기본 스펙 계산, 카운터 초기화, trace 파일 읽기 -> accessData(), freeCache()이다.
매우 화가 나는 점 : getopt.h와 unistd.h를 VSCode/VS에서 둘 다 지원을 안 해준다. 그래서 Linux Shell로 디버깅을 했는데, 고급 IDE(?)들과는 다르게 그냥 Segment Fault를 내고 죽어버리는 꼴을 여러 번 봐야해서 정말 힘들었다.
/*
* csim.c - A cache simulator that can replay traces from Valgrind
* and output statistics such as number of hits, misses, and
* evictions. The replacement policy is LRU.
*
* Implementation and assumptions:
* 1. Each load/store can cause at most one cache miss. (I examined the trace,
* the largest request I saw was for 8 bytes).
* 2. Instruction loads (I) are ignored, since we are interested in evaluating
* trans.c in terms of its data cache performance.
* 3. data modify (M) is treated as a load followed by a store to the same
* address. Hence, an M operation can result in two cache hits, or a miss and a
* hit plus an possible eviction.
*
* The function printSummary() is given to print output.
* Please use this function to print the number of hits, misses and evictions.
* This is crucial for the driver to evaluate your work.
