cpu: Simplify the rename interface and use RegId

With the hierarchical RegId there are a lot of functions that are
redundant now.

The idea behind the simplification is that instead of having the regId,
telling which kind of register read/write/rename/lookup/etc. and then
the function panic_if'ing if the regId is not of the appropriate type,
we provide an interface that decides what kind of register to read
depending on the register type of the given regId.

arch, cpu: Architectural Register structural indexing

Replace the unified register mapping with a structure associating
a class and an index. It is now much easier to know which class of
register the index is referring to. Also, when adding a new class
there is no need to modify existing ones.

x86: revamp cmpxchg8b/cmpxchg16b implementation

The previous implementation did a pair of nested RMW operations,
which isn't compatible with the way that locked RMW operations are
implemented in the cache models. It was convenient though in that
it didn't require any new micro-ops, and supported cmpxchg16b using
64-bit memory ops. It also worked in AtomicSimpleCPU where
atomicity was guaranteed by the core and not by the memory system.
It did not work with timing CPU models though.

This new implementation defines new 'split' load and store micro-ops
which allow a single memory operation to use a pair of registers as
the source or destination, then uses a single ldsplit/stsplit RMW
pair to implement cmpxchg. This patch requires support for 128-bit
memory accesses in the ISA (added via a separate patch) to support
cmpxchg16b.

arch,x86,mem: Dynamically determine the ISA for Ruby store check

This patch makes the memory system ISA-agnostic by enabling the Ruby
Sequencer to dynamically determine if it has to do a store check. To
enable this check, the ISA is encoded as an enum, and the system
is able to provide the ISA to the Sequencer at run time.


# 8954:3c7232fec7fd 15-Apr-2012 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

X86: Fix a tiny typo in the load/store microop constructor.

The parameter is _machInst, which is very similar to the member machInst. If
machInst is used to pass the parameter to a lower level constructor, what
really happens is that machInst is set to whatever it already happened to be,
effectively leaving it uninitialized.


# 8442:b1f3dfae06f1 03-Jul-2011 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

ISA: Use readBytes/writeBytes for all instruction level memory operations.


# 7678:f19b6a3a8cec 13-Sep-2010 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

Faults: Pass the StaticInst involved, if any, to a Fault's invoke method.

Also move the "Fault" reference counted pointer type into a separate file,
sim/fault.hh. It would be better to name this less similarly to sim/faults.hh
to reduce confusion, but fault.hh matches the name of the type. We could change
Fault to FaultPtr to match other pointer types, and then changing the name of
the file would make more sense.


# 7620:3d8a23caa1ef 23-Aug-2010 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

X86: Consolidate extra microop flags into one parameter.

This single parameter replaces the collection of bools that set up various
flavors of microops. A flag parameter also allows other flags to be set like
the serialize before/after flags, etc., without having to change the
constructor.

X86: fix some simple compile issues
static should not be used for constants that are not inside a class definition.


# 6345:f9ae7c3a036c 16-Jul-2009 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

X86: Take limitted advantage of the compilers type checking for microop operands.


# 6132:916f10213bea 23-Apr-2009 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

X86: Put the StoreCheck flag with the others, and don't collide with other flags.

X86: Remove x86 code that attempted to fix misaligned accesses.


# 4867:2de05bc73640 04-Aug-2007 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

X86: Make 64 bit unaligned accesses work as well as the other sizes.
There is a fundemental flaw in how unaligned accesses are supported, but this
is still an improvement.


# 4804:4a707cb7065b 30-Jul-2007 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

X86: Make disassembly use the final register index. Add bits to indicate whether or not register indexes should be "folded".


# 4767:5e55d650692e 27-Jul-2007 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

X86: Add functions to read and write to an exec context.
These functions take care of calling the thread contexts read and write functions with the right sized data type, and handle unaligned accesses.

Pull some hard coded base classes out of the isa description.
