sim-se: const for loader's loadSection param

The port proxy can be declared as a reference to a const proxy
rather than just a reference to a proxy.

base: Add a type for keeping track of object file loaders.

This avoids having a big pile of #if-s in sim/process.cc and allows
dynamically adding new types of object file loaders which might
recognize new arch/OS combinations.

base: remove fd from object loaders

All the object loaders directly examine the (already completely loaded
by object_file.cc) memory image. There is no current motivation to
keep the fd around.

Another bunch of issues addressed.


# 10037:5cac77888310 24-Jan-2014 ARM gem5 Developers

arm: Add support for ARMv8 (AArch64 & AArch32)

Note: AArch64 and AArch32 interworking is not supported. If you use an AArch64
kernel you are restricted to AArch64 user-mode binaries. This will be addressed
in a later patch.

Note: Virtualization is only supported in AArch32 mode. This will also be fixed
in a later patch.

# 9538:182d67b5b57a 15-Feb-2013 Anthony Gutierrez <atgutier@umich.edu>

loader: add a flattened device tree blob (dtb) object

this adds a dtb_object so the loader can load in the dtb
file for linux/android ARM kernels.


# 9186:635a7cdec721 07-Sep-2012 Ali Saidi <Ali.Saidi@ARM.com>

loader: initialize all memory in the ObjectFile objects.

Some bare metal build flows seem to build binaries that we aren't necessarily
expecting. Initialize everything to 0, so we don't make any assumptions about
what is or isn't in the binary.


# 8852:c744483edfcf 24-Feb-2012 Andreas Hansson <andreas.hansson@arm.com>

MEM: Make port proxies use references rather than pointers

This patch is adding a clearer design intent to all objects that would
not be complete without a port proxy by making the proxies members
rathen than dynamically allocated. In essence, if NULL would not be a
valid value for the proxy, then we avoid using a pointer to make this
clear.

The same approach is used for the methods using these proxies, such as
loadSections, that now use references rather than pointers to better
reflect the fact that NULL would not be an acceptable value (in fact
the code would break and that is how this patch started out).

Overall the concept of "using a reference to express unconditional
composition where a NULL pointer is never valid" could be done on a
much broader scale throughout the code base, but for now it is only
done in the locations affected by the proxies.


# 8706:b1838faf3bcc 17-Jan-2012 Andreas Hansson <andreas.hansson@arm.com>

MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural ports

Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable
all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has
the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem
and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address
maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is
used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong
to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data
port in a port proxy.

The following replacements are made:
FunctionalPort > PortProxy
TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy
VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy

New directory structure:
- simulator source now in 'src' subdirectory
- imported files from 'ext' repository
- support building in arbitrary places, including
outside of the source tree. See comment at top
of SConstruct file for more details.
Regression tests are temporarily disabled; that
syetem needs more extensive revisions.

SConstruct:
Update for new directory structure.
Modify to support build trees that are not subdirectories
of the source tree. See comment at top of file for
