cpu: support atomic memory request type with AtomicOpFunctor

This patch enables all 4 CPU models (AtomicSimpleCPU, TimingSimpleCPU,
MinorCPU and DerivO3CPU) to issue atomic memory (AMO) requests to memory
system.

Atomic memory instruction is treated as a special store instruction in
all CPU models.

In simple CPUs, an AMO request with an associated AtomicOpFunctor is
simply sent to L1 dcache.

In MinorCPU, an AMO request bypasses store buffer and waits for any
conflicting store request(s) currently in the store buffer to retire
before the AMO request is sent to the cache. AMO requests are not buffered
in the store buffer, so their effects appear immediately in the cache.

In DerivO3CPU, an AMO request is inserted in the store buffer so that it
is delivered to the cache only after all previous stores are issued to
the cache. Data forwarding between between an outstanding AMO in the
store buffer and a subsequent load is not allowed since the AMO request
does not hold valid data until it's executed in the cache.

This implementation assumes that a target ISA implementation must insert
enough memory fences as micro-ops around an atomic instruction to
enforce a correct order of memory instructions with respect to its
memory consistency model. Without extra memory fences, this implementation
can allow AMOs and other memory instructions that do not conflict
(i.e., not target the same address) to reorder.

This implementation also assumes that atomic instructions execute within
a cache line boundary since the cache for now is not able to execute an
operation on two different cache lines in one single step. Therefore,
ISAs like x86 that require multi-cache-line atomic instructions need to
either use a pair of locking load and unlocking store or change the
cache implementation to guarantee the atomicity of an atomic
instruction.

arch,cpu: "virtualize" the TLB interface.

CPUs have historically instantiated the architecture specific version
of the TLBs to avoid a virtual function call, making them a little bit
more dependent on what the current ISA is. Some simple performance
measurement, the x86 twolf regression on the atomic CPU, shows that
there isn't actually any performance benefit, and if anything the
simulator goes slightly faster (although still within margin of error)
when the TLB functions are virtual.

This change switches everything outside of the architectures themselves
to use the generic BaseTLB type, and then inside the ISA for them to
cast that to their architecture specific type to call into architecture
specific interfaces.

The ARM TLB needed the most adjustment since it was using non-standard
translation function signatures. Specifically, they all took an extra
"type" parameter which defaulted to normal, and translateTiming
returned a Fault. translateTiming actually doesn't need to return a
Fault because everywhere that consumed it just stored it into a
structure which it then deleted(?), and the fault is stored in the
Translation object when the translation is done.

A little more work is needed to fully obviate the arch/tlb.hh header,
so the TheISA::TLB type is still visible outside of the ISAs.
Specifically, the TlbEntry type is used in the generic PageTable which
lives in src/mem.

syscall_emul: [patch 13/22] add system call retry capability

This changeset adds functionality that allows system calls to retry without
affecting thread context state such as the program counter or register values
for the associated thread context (when system calls return with a retry
fault).

This functionality is needed to solve problems with blocking system calls
in multi-process or multi-threaded simulations where information is passed
between processes/threads. Blocking system calls can cause deadlock because
the simulator itself is single threaded. There is only a single thread
servicing the event queue which can cause deadlock if the thread hits a
blocking system call instruction.

To illustrate the problem, consider two processes using the producer/consumer
sharing model. The processes can use file descriptors and the read and write
calls to pass information to one another. If the consumer calls the blocking
read system call before the producer has produced anything, the call will
block the event queue (while executing the system call instruction) and
deadlock the simulation.

The solution implemented in this changeset is to recognize that the system
calls will block and then generate a special retry fault. The fault will
be sent back up through the function call chain until it is exposed to the
cpu model's pipeline where the fault becomes visible. The fault will trigger
the cpu model to replay the instruction at a future tick where the call has
a chance to succeed without actually going into a blocking state.

In subsequent patches, we recognize that a syscall will block by calling a
non-blocking poll (from inside the system call implementation) and checking
for events. When events show up during the poll, it signifies that the call
would not have blocked and the syscall is allowed to proceed (calling an
underlying host system call if necessary). If no events are returned from the
poll, we generate the fault and try the instruction for the thread context
at a distant tick. Note that retrying every tick is not efficient.

As an aside, the simulator has some multi-threading support for the event
queue, but it is not used by default and needs work. Even if the event queue
was completely multi-threaded, meaning that there is a hardware thread on
the host servicing a single simulator thread contexts with a 1:1 mapping
between them, it's still possible to run into deadlock due to the event queue
barriers on quantum boundaries. The solution of replaying at a later tick
is the simplest solution and solves the problem generally.

base: Add support for changing output directories

This changeset adds support for changing the simulator output
directory. This can be useful when the simulation goes through several
stages (e.g., a warming phase, a simulation phase, and a verification
phase) since it allows the output from each stage to be located in a
different directory. Relocation is done by calling core.setOutputDir()
from Python or simout.setOutputDirectory() from C++.

This change affects several parts of the design of the gem5's output
subsystem. First, files returned by an OutputDirectory instance (e.g.,
simout) are of the type OutputStream instead of a std::ostream. This
allows us to do some more book keeping and control re-opening of files
when the output directory is changed. Second, new subdirectories are
OutputDirectory instances, which should be used to create files in
that sub-directory.

cpu: Move invldPid constant from Request to BaseCPU

sim: Refactor the serialization base class

Objects that are can be serialized are supposed to inherit from the
Serializable class. This class is meant to provide a unified API for
such objects. However, so far it has mainly been used by SimObjects
due to some fundamental design limitations. This changeset redesigns
to the serialization interface to make it more generic and hide the
underlying checkpoint storage. Specifically:

* Add a set of APIs to serialize into a subsection of the current
object. Previously, objects that needed this functionality would
use ad-hoc solutions using nameOut() and section name
generation. In the new world, an object that implements the
interface has the methods serializeSection() and
unserializeSection() that serialize into a named /subsection/ of
the current object. Calling serialize() serializes an object into
the current section.

* Move the name() method from Serializable to SimObject as it is no
longer needed for serialization. The fully qualified section name
is generated by the main serialization code on the fly as objects
serialize sub-objects.

* Add a scoped ScopedCheckpointSection helper class. Some objects
need to serialize data structures, that are not deriving from
Serializable, into subsections. Previously, this was done using
nameOut() and manual section name generation. To simplify this,
this changeset introduces a ScopedCheckpointSection() helper
class. When this class is instantiated, it adds a new /subsection/
and subsequent serialization calls during the lifetime of this
helper class happen inside this section (or a subsection in case
of nested sections).

* The serialize() call is now const which prevents accidental state
manipulation during serialization. Objects that rely on modifying
state can use the serializeOld() call instead. The default
implementation simply calls serialize(). Note: The old-style calls
need to be explicitly called using the
serializeOld()/serializeSectionOld() style APIs. These are used by
default when serializing SimObjects.

* Both the input and output checkpoints now use their own named
types. This hides underlying checkpoint implementation from
objects that need checkpointing and makes it easier to change the
underlying checkpoint storage code.

x86 isa: This patch attempts an implementation at mwait.

Mwait works as follows:
1. A cpu monitors an address of interest (monitor instruction)
2. A cpu calls mwait - this loads the cache line into that cpu's cache.
3. The cpu goes to sleep.
4. When another processor requests write permission for the line, it is
evicted from the sleeping cpu's cache. This eviction is forwarded to the
sleeping cpu, which then wakes up.

arch, arm: Preserve TLB bootUncacheability when switching CPUs

The ARM TLBs have a bootUncacheability flag used to make some loads
and stores become uncacheable when booting in FS mode. Later the
flag is cleared to let those loads and stores operate as normal. When
doing a takeOverFrom(), this flag's state is not preserved and is
momentarily reset until the CPSR is touched. On single core runs this
is a non-issue. On multi-core runs this can lead to crashes on the O3
CPU model from the following series of events:
1) takeOverFrom executed to switch from Atomic -> O3
2) All bootUncacheability flags are reset to true
3) Core2 tries to execute a load covered by bootUncacheability, it
is flagged as uncacheable
4) Core2's load needs to replay due to a pipeline flush
3) Core1 core does an action on CPSR
4) The handling code for CPSR then checks all other cores
to determine if bootUncacheability can be set to false
5) Asynchronously set bootUncacheability on all cores to false
6) Core2 replays load previously set as uncacheable and notices
it is now flagged as cacheable, leads to a panic.
This patch implements takeOverFrom() functionality for the ARM TLBs
to preserve flag values when switching from atomic -> detailed.

sim: simulate with multiple threads and event queues
This patch adds support for simulating with multiple threads, each of
which operates on an event queue. Each sim object specifies which eventq

The patch was tested in two different configurations:
1. ruby_network_test.py: in this simulation L1 cache controllers receive
requests from the cpu. The requests are replied to immediately without
any communication taking place with any other level.
2. twosys-tsunami-simple-atomic: this configuration simulates a client-server
system which are connected by an ethernet link.

We still lack the ability to communicate using message buffers or ports. But
other things like simulation start and end, synchronizing after every quantum
are working.

mem: Set the cache line size on a system level

This patch removes the notion of a peer block size and instead sets
the cache line size on the system level.

Previously the size was set per cache, and communicated through the
interconnect. There were plenty checks to ensure that everyone had the
same size specified, and these checks are now removed. Another benefit
that is not yet harnessed is that the cache line size is now known at
construction time, rather than after the port binding. Hence, the
block size can be locally stored and does not have to be queried every
time it is used.

A follow-on patch updates the configuration scripts accordingly.

cpu: Add support for scheduling multiple inst/load stop events

Currently, the only way to get a CPU to stop after a fixed number of
instructions/loads is to set a property on the CPU that causes a
SimLoopExitEvent to be scheduled when the CPU is constructed. This is
clearly not ideal in cases where the simulation script wants the CPU
to stop at multiple instruction counts (e.g., SimPoint generation).

This changeset adds the methods scheduleInstStop() and
scheduleLoadStop() to the BaseCPU. These methods are exported to
Python and are designed to be used from the simulation script. By
using these methods instead of the old properties, a simulation script
can schedule a stop at any point during simulation or schedule
multiple stops. The number of instructions specified when scheduling a
stop is relative to the current point of execution.

cpu: generate SimPoint basic block vector profiles

This patch is based on http://reviews.m5sim.org/r/1474/ originally written by
Mitch Hayenga. Basic block vectors are generated (simpoint.bb.gz in simout
folder) based on start and end addresses of basic blocks.

Some comments to the original patch are addressed and hooks are added to create
and resume from checkpoints based on instruction counts dictated by external
SimPoint analysis tools.

SimPoint creation/resuming options will be implemented as a separate patch.

cpu: Remove CpuPort and use MasterPort in the CPU classes

This patch changes the port in the CPU classes to use MasterPort
instead of the derived CpuPort. The functions of the CpuPort are now
distributed across the relevant subclasses. The port accessor
functions (getInstPort and getDataPort) now return a MasterPort
instead of a CpuPort. This simplifies creating derivative CPUs that do
not use the CpuPort.

cpu: Refactor memory system checks

CPUs need to test that the memory system is in the right mode in two
places, when the CPU is initialized (unless it's switched out) and on
a drainResume(). This led to some code duplication in the CPU
models. This changeset introduces the verifyMemoryMode() method which
is called by BaseCPU::init() if the CPU isn't switched out. The
individual CPU models are responsible for calling this method when
resuming from a drain as this code is CPU model specific.

cpu: Unify the serialization code for all of the CPU models

Cleanup the serialization code for the simple CPUs and the O3 CPU. The
CPU-specific code has been replaced with a (un)serializeThread that
serializes the thread state / context of a specific thread. Assuming
that the thread state class uses the CPU-specific thread state uses
the base thread state serialization code, this allows us to restore a
checkpoint with any of the CPU models.

cpu: Flush TLBs on switchOut()

This changeset inserts a TLB flush in BaseCPU::switchOut to prevent
stale translations when doing repeated switching. Additionally, the
TLB flushing functionality is exported to the Python to make debugging
of switching/checkpointing easier.

A simulation script will typically use the TLB flushing functionality
to generate a reference trace. The following sequence can be used to
simulate a handover (this depends on how drain is implemented, but is
generally the case) between identically configured CPU models:

m5.drain(test_sys)
[ cpu.flushTLBs() for cpu in test_sys.cpu ]
m5.resume(test_sys)

The generated trace should normally be identical to a trace generated
when switching between identically configured CPU models or
checkpointing and resuming.

cpu: Rename defer_registration->switched_out

The defer_registration parameter is used to prevent a CPU from
initializing at startup, leaving it in the "switched out" mode. The
name of this parameter (and the help string) is confusing. This patch
renames it to switched_out, which should be more descriptive.

cpu: Introduce sanity checks when switching between CPUs

This patch introduces the following sanity checks when switching
between CPUs:

* Check that the set of new and old CPUs do not overlap. Having an
overlap between the set of new CPUs and the set of old CPUs is
currently not supported. Doing such a switch used to result in the
following assertion error:

arch: Make the ISA class inherit from SimObject

The ISA class on stores the contents of ID registers on many
architectures. In order to make reset values of such registers
configurable, we make the class inherit from SimObject, which allows
us to use the normal generated parameter headers.

This patch introduces a Python helper method, BaseCPU.createThreads(),
which creates a set of ISAs for each of the threads in an SMT
system. Although it is currently only needed when creating
multi-threaded CPUs, it should always be called before instantiating
the system as this is an obvious place to configure ID registers
identifying a thread/CPU.

ARM: dump stats and process info on context switches

This patch enables dumping statistics and Linux process information on
context switch boundaries (__switch_to() calls) that are used for
Streamline integration (a graphical statistics viewer from ARM).

Port: Add protocol-agnostic ports in the port hierarchy

This patch adds an additional level of ports in the inheritance
hierarchy, separating out the protocol-specific and protocl-agnostic
parts. All the functionality related to the binding of ports is now
confined to use BaseMaster/BaseSlavePorts, and all the
protocol-specific parts stay in the Master/SlavePort. In the future it
will be possible to add other protocol-specific implementations.

The functions used in the binding of ports, i.e. getMaster/SlavePort
now use the base classes, and the index parameter is updated to use
the PortID typedef with the symbolic InvalidPortID as the default.

Base CPU: Initialize profileEvent to NULL
The profileEvent pointer is tested against NULL in various places, but
it is not initialized unless running in full-system mode. In SE mode, this
can result in segmentation faults when profileEvent default intializes to
something other than NULL.

Clock: Rework clocks to avoid tick-to-cycle transformations

This patch introduces the notion of a clock update function that aims
to avoid costly divisions when turning the current tick into a
cycle. Each clocked object advances a private (hidden) cycle member
and a tick member and uses these to implement functions for getting
the tick of the next cycle, or the tick of a cycle some time in the
future.

In the different modules using the clocks, changes are made to avoid
counting in ticks only to later translate to cycles. There are a few
oddities in how the O3 and inorder CPU count idle cycles, as seen by a
few locations where a cycle is subtracted in the calculation. This is
done such that the regression does not change any stats, but should be
revisited in a future patch.

Another, much needed, change that is not done as part of this patch is
to introduce a new typedef uint64_t Cycle to be able to at least hint
at the unit of the variables counting Ticks vs Cycles. This will be
done as a follow-up patch.

As an additional follow up, the thread context still uses ticks for
the book keeping of last activate and last suspend and this should
probably also be changed into cycles as well.

Port: Stricter port bind/unbind semantics

This patch tightens up the semantics around port binding and checks
that the ports that are being bound are currently not connected, and
similarly connected before unbind is called.

The patch consequently also changes the order of the unbind and bind
for the switching of CPUs to ensure that the rules are adhered
to. Previously the ports would be "over-written" without any check.

There are no changes in behaviour due to this patch, and the only
place where the unbind functionality is used is in the CPU.

Clock: Move the clock and related functions to ClockedObject

This patch moves the clock of the CPU, bus, and numerous devices to
the new class ClockedObject, that sits in between the SimObject and
MemObject in the class hierarchy. Although there are currently a fair
amount of MemObjects that do not make use of the clock, they
potentially should do so, e.g. the caches should at some point have
the same clock as the CPU, potentially with a 1:n ratio. This patch
does not introduce any new clock objects or object hierarchies
(clusters, clock domains etc), but is still a step in the direction of
having a more structured approach clock domains.

The most contentious part of this patch is the serialisation of clocks
that some of the modules (but not all) did previously. This
serialisation should not be needed as the clock is set through the
parameters even when restoring from the checkpoint. In other words,
the state is "stored" in the Python code that creates the modules.

The nextCycle methods are also simplified and the clock phase
parameter of the CPU is removed (this could be part of a clock object
once they are introduced).

O3,ARM: fix some problems with drain/switchout functionality and add Drain DPRINTFs

This patch fixes some problems with the drain/switchout functionality
for the O3 cpu and for the ARM ISA and adds some useful debug print
statements.

This is an incremental fix as there are still a few bugs/mem leaks with the
switchout code. Particularly when switching from an O3CPU to a
TimingSimpleCPU. However, when switching from O3 to O3 cores with the ARM ISA
I haven't encountered any more assertion failures; now the kernel will
typically panic inside of simulation.

Fix: Address a few benign memory leaks

This patch is the result of static analysis identifying a number of
memory leaks. The leaks are all benign as they are a result of not
deallocating memory in the desctructor. The fix still has value as it
removes false positives in the static analysis.

MEM: Separate requests and responses for timing accesses

This patch moves send/recvTiming and send/recvTimingSnoop from the
Port base class to the MasterPort and SlavePort, and also splits them
into separate member functions for requests and responses:
send/recvTimingReq, send/recvTimingResp, and send/recvTimingSnoopReq,
send/recvTimingSnoopResp. A master port sends requests and receives
responses, and also receives snoop requests and sends snoop
responses. A slave port has the reciprocal behaviour as it receives
requests and sends responses, and sends snoop requests and receives
snoop responses.

For all MemObjects that have only master ports or slave ports (but not
both), e.g. a CPU, or a PIO device, this patch merely adds more
clarity to what kind of access is taking place. For example, a CPU
port used to call sendTiming, and will now call
sendTimingReq. Similarly, a response previously came back through
recvTiming, which is now recvTimingResp. For the modules that have
both master and slave ports, e.g. the bus, the behaviour was
previously relying on branches based on pkt->isRequest(), and this is
now replaced with a direct call to the apprioriate member function
depending on the type of access. Please note that send/recvRetry is
still shared by all the timing accessors and remains in the Port base
class for now (to maintain the current bus functionality and avoid
changing the statistics of all regressions).

The packet queue is split into a MasterPort and SlavePort version to
facilitate the use of the new timing accessors. All uses of the
PacketQueue are updated accordingly.

With this patch, the type of packet (request or response) is now well
defined for each type of access, and asserts on pkt->isRequest() and
pkt->isResponse() are now moved to the appropriate send member
functions. It is also worth noting that sendTimingSnoopReq no longer
returns a boolean, as the semantics do not alow snoop requests to be
rejected or stalled. All these assumptions are now excplicitly part of
the port interface itself.

MEM: Separate snoops and normal memory requests/responses

This patch introduces port access methods that separates snoop
request/responses from normal memory request/responses. The
differentiation is made for functional, atomic and timing accesses and
builds on the introduction of master and slave ports.

Before the introduction of this patch, the packets belonging to the
different phases of the protocol (request -> [forwarded snoop request
-> snoop response]* -> response) all use the same port access
functions, even though the snoop packets flow in the opposite
direction to the normal packet. That is, a coherent master sends
normal request and receives responses, but receives snoop requests and
sends snoop responses (vice versa for the slave). These two distinct
phases now use different access functions, as described below.

Starting with the functional access, a master sends a request to a
slave through sendFunctional, and the request packet is turned into a
response before the call returns. In a system without cache coherence,
this is all that is needed from the functional interface. For the
cache-coherent scenario, a slave also sends snoop requests to coherent
masters through sendFunctionalSnoop, with responses returned within
the same packet pointer. This is currently used by the bus and caches,
and the LSQ of the O3 CPU. The send/recvFunctional and
send/recvFunctionalSnoop are moved from the Port super class to the
appropriate subclass.

Atomic accesses follow the same flow as functional accesses, with
request being sent from master to slave through sendAtomic. In the
case of cache-coherent ports, a slave can send snoop requests to a
master through sendAtomicSnoop. Just as for the functional access
methods, the atomic send and receive member functions are moved to the
appropriate subclasses.

The timing access methods are different from the functional and atomic
in that requests and responses are separated in time and
send/recvTiming are used for both directions. Hence, a master uses
sendTiming to send a request to a slave, and a slave uses sendTiming
to send a response back to a master, at a later point in time. Snoop
requests and responses travel in the opposite direction, similar to
what happens in functional and atomic accesses. With the introduction
of this patch, it is possible to determine the direction of packets in
the bus, and no longer necessary to look for both a master and a slave
port with the requested port id.

In contrast to the normal recvFunctional, recvAtomic and recvTiming
that are pure virtual functions, the recvFunctionalSnoop,
recvAtomicSnoop and recvTimingSnoop have a default implementation that
calls panic. This is to allow non-coherent master and slave ports to
not implement these functions.

MEM: Introduce the master/slave port sub-classes in C++

This patch introduces the notion of a master and slave port in the C++
code, thus bringing the previous classification from the Python
classes into the corresponding simulation objects and memory objects.

The patch enables us to classify behaviours into the two bins and add
assumptions and enfore compliance, also simplifying the two
interfaces. As a starting point, isSnooping is confined to a master
port, and getAddrRanges to slave ports. More of these specilisations
are to come in later patches.

The getPort function is not getMasterPort and getSlavePort, and
returns a port reference rather than a pointer as NULL would never be
a valid return value. The default implementation of these two
functions is placed in MemObject, and calls fatal.

The one drawback with this specific patch is that it requires some
code duplication, e.g. QueuedPort becomes QueuedMasterPort and
QueuedSlavePort, and BusPort becomes BusMasterPort and BusSlavePort
(avoiding multiple inheritance). With the later introduction of the
port interfaces, moving the functionality outside the port itself, a
lot of the duplicated code will disappear again.

CheckerCPU: Make CheckerCPU runtime selectable instead of compile selectable

Enables the CheckerCPU to be selected at runtime with the --checker option
from the configs/example/fs.py and configs/example/se.py configuration
files. Also merges with the SE/FS changes.

CPU: Check that the interrupt controller is created when needed

This patch adds a creation-time check to the CPU to ensure that the
interrupt controller is created for the cases where it is needed,
i.e. if the CPU is not being switched in later and not a checker CPU.

The patch also adds the "createInterruptController" call to a number
of the regression scripts.

CPU: Round-two unifying instr/data CPU ports across models

This patch continues the unification of how the different CPU models
create and share their instruction and data ports. Most importantly,
it forces every CPU to have an instruction and a data port, and gives
these ports explicit getters in the BaseCPU (getDataPort and
getInstPort). The patch helps in simplifying the code, make
assumptions more explicit, andfurther ease future patches related to
the CPU ports.

The biggest changes are in the in-order model (that was not modified
in the previous unification patch), which now moves the ports from the
CacheUnit to the CPU. It also distinguishes the instruction fetch and
load-store unit from the rest of the resources, and avoids the use of
indices and casting in favour of keeping track of these two units
explicitly (since they are always there anyways). The atomic, timing
and O3 model simply return references to their already existing ports.

cpu: add separate stats for insts/ops both globally and per cpu model

mem: Add a master ID to each request object.

This change adds a master id to each request object which can be
used identify every device in the system that is capable of issuing a request.
This is part of the way to removing the numCpus+1 stats in the cache and
replacing them with the master ids. This is one of a series of changes
that make way for the stats output to be changed to python.

clang: Enable compiling gem5 using clang 2.9 and 3.0

This patch adds the necessary flags to the SConstruct and SConscript
files for compiling using clang 2.9 and later (on Ubuntu et al and OSX
XCode 4.2), and also cleans up a bunch of compiler warnings found by
clang. Most of the warnings are related to hidden virtual functions,
comparisons with unsigneds >= 0, and if-statements with empty
bodies. A number of mismatches between struct and class are also
fixed. clang 2.8 is not working as it has problems with class names
that occur in multiple namespaces (e.g. Statistics in
kernel_stats.hh).

clang has a bug (http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=7247) which
causes confusion between the container std::set and the function
Packet::set, and this is currently addressed by not including the
entire namespace std, but rather selecting e.g. "using std::vector" in
the appropriate places.

CheckerCPU: Re-factor CheckerCPU to be compatible with current gem5

Brings the CheckerCPU back to life to allow FS and SE checking of the
O3CPU. These changes have only been tested with the ARM ISA. Other
ISAs potentially require modification.

MEM: Separate queries for snooping and address ranges

This patch simplifies the address-range determination mechanism and
also unifies the naming across ports and devices. It further splits
the queries for determining if a port is snooping and what address
ranges it responds to (aiming towards a separation of
cache-maintenance ports and pure memory-mapped ports). Default
behaviours are such that most ports do not have to define isSnooping,
and master ports need not implement getAddrRanges.

CPU: Moving towards a more general port across CPU models

This patch performs minimal changes to move the instruction and data
ports from specialised subclasses to the base CPU (to the largest
degree possible). Ultimately it servers to make the CPU(s) have a
well-defined interface to the memory sub-system.

Output: Add hierarchical output support and cleanup existing codebase.

GCC: Get everything working with gcc 4.6.1.

And by "everything" I mean all the quick regressions.

trace: reimplement the DTRACE function so it doesn't use a vector
At the same time, rename the trace flags to debug flags since they
have broader usage than simply tracing. This means that
--trace-flags is now --debug-flags and --trace-help is now --debug-help

Fixes to get prefetching working again.
Apparently we broke it with the cache rewrite and never noticed.
Thanks to Bao Yungang <baoyungang@gmail.com> for a significant part
of these changes (and for inspiring me to work on the rest).
Some other overdue cleanup on the prefetch code too.

CPU: Add a setCPU function to the interrupt objects.

cpu: provide a wakeup mechanism that can be used to pull CPUs out of sleep.
Make interrupts use the new wakeup method, and pull all of the interrupt
stuff into the cpu base class so that only the wakeup code needs to be updated.
I tried to make wakeup, wakeCPU, and the various other mechanisms for waking
and sleeping a little more sane, but I couldn't understand why the statistics
were changing the way they were. Maybe we'll try again some day.

Right now a single thread cpu 1 could get assigned context Id != 1, depending
on the order in which it's registered with the system. To make them match,
here is a little change.

get rid of all instances of readTid() and getThreadNum(). Unify and eliminate
redundancies with threadId() as their replacement.

Add in Context IDs to the simulator. From now on, cpuId is almost never used,
the primary identifier for a hardware context should be contextId(). The
concept of threads within a CPU remains, in the form of threadId() because
sometimes you need to know which context within a cpu to manipulate.

Make it so that all thread contexts are registered with the System, even in
SE. Process still keeps track of the tc's it owns, but registration occurs
with the System, this eases the way for system-wide context Ids based on
registration.

make BaseCPU the provider of _cpuId, and cpuId() instead of being scattered
across the subclasses. generally make it so that member data is _cpuId and
accessor functions are cpuId(). The ID val comes from the python (default -1 if
none provided), and if it is -1, the index of cpuList will be given. this has
passed util/regress quick and se.py -n4 and fs.py -n4 as well as standard
switch.

style: Use the correct m5 style for things relating to interrupts.

Turn Interrupts objects into SimObjects. Also, move local APIC state into x86's Interrupts object.

CPU: Eliminate the get_vec function.

eventq: convert all usage of events to use the new API.
For now, there is still a single global event queue, but this is
necessary for making the steps towards a parallelized m5.

Changed BaseCPU::ProfileEvent's interval member to be of type Tick. This was done to be consistent with its
python type of a latency. In addition, the multiple definitions of profile in the different cpu models caused
problems for intialization of the interval value. If a child class's profile value was defined, the parent
BaseCPU::ProfileEvent interval field would be initialized with a garbage value. The fix was to remove the
multiple redifitions of profile in the child CPU classes.

params: Convert the CPU objects to use the auto generated param structs.
A whole bunch of stuff has been converted to use the new params stuff, but
the CPU wasn't one of them. While we're at it, make some things a bit
more stylish. Most of the work was done by Gabe, I just cleaned stuff up
a bit more at the end.

port: Clean up default port setup and port switchover code.

Make the Event::description() a const function

Checkpointing: Fix a bug in the simulation script when restoring without standard switch and change some ifs to work with the default port since every port is now connected to something.

CPU: Add function to explictly compare thread contexts after copying.

Rename cycles() function to ticks()

params: Deprecate old-style constructors; update most SimObject constructors.

SimObjects not yet updated:
- Process and subclasses
- BaseCPU and subclasses

The SimObject(const std::string &name) constructor was removed. Subclasses
that still rely on that behavior must call the parent initializer as
: SimObject(makeParams(name))

switching: turn on profiling after a switch if there's an event

Merge Gabe's changes from head.

Merge python and x86 changes with cache branch

Event descriptions should not end in "event"
(they function as adjectives not nouns)

BsaeCPU: Get rid of some bad DPRINTFs.
People should never put pointers in DPRINTFs; it messes up
tracediffs. Plus these used the FullCPU trace flag, which
is not right.

Turn the instruction tracing code into pluggable sim objects.
These need to be refined a little still and given parameters.

Major changes to how SimObjects are created and initialized. Almost all
creation and initialization now happens in python. Parameter objects
are generated and initialized by python. The .ini file is now solely for
debugging purposes and is not used in construction of the objects in any
way.

Hand merge. Line is no longer needed because it's handled in the ISA.

Two fixes:
1. Make sure connectMemPorts() only gets called when the CPU's peer gets changed. This is done by making setPeer() virtual, and overriding it in the CPU's ports. When it gets called on a CPU's port (dcache specifically), it calls the normal setPeer() function, and also connectMemPorts().

the way i understand it, interrupts in m5 is a little bloated. the usage of CPU->checkInterrupts bool is inconsistent, and i think should eventually be phased out. For now, I've just assumed that CPU->checkInterrupts() is the way to fast path a CPU if you have no interrupts by having a simple bitfield in each ISA to determine whether interrupts are pending. getInterrupts has been mostly filled in.

there are two main thrusts of this changeset.

1) return the periodicity of checkpoints back into the code (i.e. make m5 checkpoint n m meaningful again).
2) to do this, i had to much around with being able to repeatedly schedule and SimLoopExitEvent, which led to changes in how exit simloop events are handled to make this easier.

src/arch/alpha/isa/decoder.isa:
src/mem/cache/cache_impl.hh:
modify arg. order for new calling convention of exitSimLoop.
src/cpu/base.cc:
src/sim/main.cc:
src/sim/pseudo_inst.cc:
src/sim/root.cc:
now, instead of creating a new SimLoopExitEvent, call a wrapper schedExitSimLoop which handles all the default args.
src/sim/sim_events.cc:
src/sim/sim_events.hh:
src/sim/sim_exit.hh:
add the periodicity of checkpointing back into the code.

to facilitate this, there are now two wrappers (instead of just overloading exitSimLoop). exitSimLoop is only for exiting NOW (i.e. at curTick), while schedExitSimLoop schedules and exit event for the future.

Updates to fix merge issues and bring almost everything up to working speed. Ozone CPU remains untested, but everything else compiles and runs.

Change ExecContext to ThreadContext. This is being renamed to differentiate between the interface used objects outside of the CPU, and the interface used by the ISA. ThreadContext is used by objects outside of the CPU and is specifically defined in thread_context.hh. ExecContext is more implicit, and is defined by files such as base_dyn_inst.hh or cpu/simple/base.hh.

Further renames/reorganization will be coming shortly; what is currently CPUExecContext (the old ExecContext from m5) will be renamed to SimpleThread or something similar.

Fixes to get compiling to work. This is mainly fixing up some includes; changing functions within the XCs; changing MemReqPtrs to Requests or Packets where appropriate.

Currently the O3 and Ozone CPUs do not work in the new memory system; I still need to fix up the ports to work and handle responses properly. This check-in is so that the merge between m5 and newmem is no longer outstanding.
