cpu, mem: Changing AtomicOpFunctor* for unique_ptr<AtomicOpFunctor>
This change is based on modify the way we move the AtomicOpFunctor* through gem5 in order to mantain proper ownership of the object and ensuring its destruction when it is no longer used.
Doing that we fix at the same time a memory leak in Request.hh where we were assigning a new AtomicOpFunctor* without destroying the previous one.
This change creates a new type AtomicOpFunctor_ptr as a std::unique_ptr<AtomicOpFunctor> and move its ownership as needed. Except for its only usage when AtomicOpFunc() is called.

cpu-o3: Add support for pinned writes
This patch adds support for pinning registers for a certain number of consecutive writes. This is only relevant for timing CPU models (functional-only models are unaffected), and it is primarily needed to provide a realistic execution model for micro-coded operations whose microops can write to non-overlapping portions of a destination register, e.g. vector gather loads. In those cases, this mechanism can disable renaming for a sequence of consecutive writes, thus making the resulting execution more efficient: allocating a new physical register for each microop would introduce a read-modify-write chain of dependencies, while with these modifications the microops can write back in parallel.
Please note that this new feature is only leveraged by O3CPU for the time being.

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.

cpu-o3: O3 LSQ Generalisation
This patch does a large modification of the LSQ in the O3 model. The main goal of the patch is to remove the 'an operation can be served with one or two memory requests' assumption that is present in the LSQ and the instruction with the req, reqLow, reqHigh triplet, and generalising it to operations that can be addressed with one request, and operations that require many requests, embodied in the SingleDataRequest and the SplitDataRequest.
This modification has been done mimicking the minor model to an extent, shifting the responsibilities of dealing with VtoP translation and tracking the status and resources from the DynInst to the LSQ via the LSQRequest. The LSQRequest models the information concerning the operation, handles the creation of fragments for translation and request as well as assembling/splitting the data accordingly.
With this modifications, the implementation of vector ISAs, particularly on the memory side, become more rich, as the new model permits a dissociation of the ISA characteristics as vector length, from the microarchitectural characteristics that govern how contiguous loads are executing, allowing exploration of different LSQ to DL1 bus widths to understand the tradeoffs in complexity and performance.
Part of the complexities introduced stem from the fact that gem5 keeps a large amount of metadata regarding, in particular, memory operations, thus, when an instruction is squashed while some operation as TLB lookup or cache access is ongoing, when the relevant structure communicates to the LSQ that the operation is over, it tries to access some pieces of data that should have died when the instruction is squashed, leading to asserts, panics, or memory corruption. To ensure the correct behaviour, the LSQRequest rely on assesing who is their owner, and self-destroying if they detect their owner is done with the request, and there will be no subsequent action. For example, in the case of an instruction squashed whal the TLB is doing a walk to serve the translation, when the translation is served by the TLB, the LSQRequest detects that the instruction was squashed, and as the translation is done, no one else expect to access its information, and therefore, it self-destructs. Having destroyed the LSQRequest earlier, would lead to wrong behaviour as the TLB walk may access some fields of it.

cpu: Fix the usage of const DynInstPtr
Summary: Usage of const DynInstPtr& when possible and introduction of move operators to RefCountingPtr.
In many places, scoped references to dynamic instructions do a copy of the DynInstPtr when a reference would do. This is detrimental to performance. On top of that, in case there is a need for reference tracking for debugging, the redundant copies make the process much more painful than it already is.
Also, from the theoretical point of view, a function/method that defines a convenience name to access an instruction should not be considered an owner of the data, i.e., doing a copy and not a reference is not justified.
On a related topic, C++11 introduces move semantics, and those are useful when, for example, there is a class modelling a HW structure that contains a list, and has a getHeadOfList function, to prevent doing a copy to an internal variable -> update pointer, remove from the list -> update pointer, return value making a copy to the assined variable -> update pointer, destroy the returned value -> update pointer.

This change consists mainly of augmenting ThreadContexts and ExecContexts with calls to get/set full vectors, underlying microarchitectural elements or lanes. Those are meant to interface with the vector register file. All classes that implement this interface also get an appropriate implementation.
This requires implementing the vector register file for the different models using the VecRegContainer class.
This change set also updates the Result abstraction to contemplate the possibility of having a vector as result.
The changes also affect how the remote_gdb connection works.
There are some (nasty) side effects, such as the need to define dummy numPhysVecRegs parameter values for architectures that do not implement vector extensions.

cpu. arch: add initiateMemRead() to ExecContext interface
For historical reasons, the ExecContext interface had a single function, readMem(), that did two different things depending on whether the ExecContext supported atomic memory mode (i.e., AtomicSimpleCPU) or timing memory mode (all the other models). In the former case, it actually performed a memory read; in the latter case, it merely initiated a read access, and the read completion did not happen until later when a response packet arrived from the memory system.
This led to some confusing things, including timing accesses being required to provide a pointer for the return data even though that pointer was only used in atomic mode.
This patch splits this interface, adding a new initiateMemRead() function to the ExecContext interface to replace the timing-mode use of readMem().
For consistency and clarity, the readMemTiming() helper function in the ISA definitions is renamed to initiateMemRead() as well. For x86, where the access size is passed in explicitly, we can also get rid of the data parameter at this level. For other ISAs, where the access size is determined from the type of the data parameter, we have to keep the parameter for that purpose.

cpu: remove unnecessary data ptr from O3 internal read() funcs
The read() function merely initiates a memory read operation; the data doesn't arrive until the access completes and a response packet is received from the memory system. Thus there's no need to provide a data pointer; its existence is historical.
Getting this pointer out of this internal o3 interface sets the stage for similar cleanup in the ExecContext interface. Also found that we were pointlessly setting the contents at this pointer on a store forward (the useful memcpy happens just a few lines below the deleted one).

cpu, o3: consider split requests for LSQ checksnoop operations
This patch enables instructions in LSQ to track two physical addresses for corresponding two split requests. Later, the information is used in checksnoop() to search for/invalidate the corresponding LD instructions.
The current implementation has kept track of only the physical address that is referenced by the first split request. Thus, for checksnoop(), the line accessed by the second request has not been considered, causing potential correctness issues.

misc: Appease gcc 5.1
Three minor issues are resolved:
1. Apparently gcc 5.1 does not like negation of booleans followed by bitwise AND.
2. Somehow the compiler also gets confused and warns about NoopMachInst being unused (removing it causes compilation errors though). Most likely a compiler bug.
3. There seems to be a number of instances where loop unrolling causes false positives for the array-bounds check. For now, switch to std::array. Potentially we could disable the warning for newer gcc versions, but switching to std::array is probably a good move in any case.

mem, cpu: Add a separate flag for strictly ordered memory
The Request::UNCACHEABLE flag currently has two different functions. The first, and obvious, function is to prevent the memory system from caching data in the request. The second function is to prevent reordering and speculation in CPU models.
This changeset gives the order/speculation requirement a separate flag (Request::STRICT_ORDER). This flag prevents CPU models from doing the following optimizations:
* Speculation: CPU models are not allowed to issue speculative loads.
* Write combining: CPU models and caches are not allowed to merge writes to the same cache line.
Note: The memory system may still reorder accesses unless the UNCACHEABLE flag is set. It is therefore expected that the STRICT_ORDER flag is combined with the UNCACHEABLE flag to prevent this behavior.

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, cpu: Factor out the ExecContext into a proper base class
We currently generate and compile one version of the ISA code per CPU model. This is obviously wasting a lot of resources at compile time. This changeset factors out the interface into a separate ExecContext class, which also serves as documentation for the interface between CPUs and the ISA code. While doing so, this changeset also fixes up interface inconsistencies between the different CPU models.
The main argument for using one set of ISA code per CPU model has always been performance as this avoid indirect branches in the generated code. However, this argument does not hold water. Booting Linux on a simulated ARM system running in atomic mode (opt/10.linux-boot/realview-simple-atomic) is actually 2% faster (compiled using clang 3.4) after applying this patch. Additionally, compilation time is decreased by 35%.

cpu: Fix O3 uncacheable load that is replayed but misses the TLB
This change fixes an issue in the O3 CPU where an uncachable instruction is attempted to be executed before it reaches the head of the ROB. It is determined to be uncacheable, and is replayed, but a PanicFault is attached to the instruction to make sure that it is properly executed before committing. If the TLB entry it was using is replaced in the interveaning time, the TLB returns a delayed translation when the load is replayed at the head of the ROB, however the LSQ code can't differntiate between the old fault and the new one. If the translation isn't complete it can't be faulting, so clear the fault.

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.

In particular, the patch cleans up enums where the last item was succeded by a comma, namespaces closed by a curcly brace followed by a semi-colon, and the use of the GNU-extension typeof (replaced by templated functions). It does not address variable-length arrays, zero-size arrays, anonymous structs, range expressions in switch statements, and the use of long long. The generated CPU code also has a large number of issues that remain to be fixed, mainly related to overflows in implicit constant conversion (due to shifts).

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.

LSQ: Only trigger a memory violation with a load/load if the value changes.
Only create a memory ordering violation when the value could have changed between two subsequent loads, instead of just when loads go out-of-order to the same address. While not very common in the case of Alpha, with an architecture with a hardware table walker this can happen reasonably frequently beacuse a translation will miss and start a table walk and before the CPU re-schedules the faulting instruction another one will pass it to the same address (or cache block depending on the dendency checking).
This patch has been tested with a couple of self-checking hand crafted programs to stress ordering between two cores.
The performance improvement on SPEC benchmarks can be substantial (2-10%).

readBytes and writeBytes had the word "bytes" in their names because they accessed blobs of bytes. This distinguished them from the read and write functions which handled higher level data types. Because those functions don't exist any more, this change renames readBytes and writeBytes to more general names, readMem and writeMem, which reflect the fact that they are how you read and write memory. This also makes their names more consistent with the register reading/writing functions, although those are still read and set for some reason.

O3: Enhance data address translation by supporting hardware page table walkers.
Some ISAs (like ARM) relies on hardware page table walkers. For those ISAs, when a TLB miss occurs, initiateTranslation() can return with NoFault but with the translation unfinished.
Instructions experiencing a delayed translation due to a hardware page table walk are deferred until the translation completes and kept into the IQ. In order to keep track of them, the IQ has been augmented with a queue of the outstanding delayed memory instructions. When their translation completes, instructions are re-executed (only their initiateAccess() was already executed; their DTB translation is now skipped). The IEW stage has been modified to support such a 2-pass execution.

ARM/Alpha/Cpu: Change prefetchs to be more like normal loads.
This change modifies the way prefetches work. They are now like normal loads that don't writeback a register. Previously prefetches were supposed to call prefetch() on the exection context, so they executed with execute() methods instead of initiateAcc() completeAcc(). The prefetch() methods for all the CPUs are blank, meaning that they get executed, but don't actually do anything.
On Alpha dead cache copy code was removed and prefetches are now normal ops. They count as executed operations, but still don't do anything and IsMemRef is not longer set on them.
On ARM IsDataPrefetch or IsInstructionPreftech is now set on all prefetch instructions. The timing simple CPU doesn't try to do anything special for prefetches now and they execute with the normal memory code path.

ISA,CPU,etc: Create an ISA defined PC type that abstracts out ISA behaviors.
This change is a low level and pervasive reorganization of how PCs are managed in M5. Back when Alpha was the only ISA, there were only 2 PCs to worry about, the PC and the NPC, and the lsb of the PC signaled whether or not you were in PAL mode. As other ISAs were added, we had to add an NNPC, micro PC and next micropc, x86 and ARM introduced variable length instruction sets, and ARM started to keep track of mode bits in the PC. Each CPU model handled PCs in its own custom way that needed to be updated individually to handle the new dimensions of variability, or, in the case of ARMs mode-bit-in-the-pc hack, the complexity could be hidden in the ISA at the ISA implementation's expense. Areas like the branch predictor hadn't been updated to handle branch delay slots or micropcs, and it turns out that had introduced a significant (10s of percent) performance bug in SPARC and to a lesser extend MIPS. Rather than perpetuate the problem by reworking O3 again to handle the PC features needed by x86, this change was introduced to rework PC handling in a more modular, transparent, and hopefully efficient way.
PC type:
Rather than having the superset of all possible elements of PC state declared in each of the CPU models, each ISA defines its own PCState type which has exactly the elements it needs. A cross product of canned PCState classes are defined in the new "generic" ISA directory for ISAs with/without delay slots and microcode. These are either typedef-ed or subclassed by each ISA. To read or write this structure through a *Context, you use the new pcState() accessor which reads or writes depending on whether it has an argument. If you just want the address of the current or next instruction or the current micro PC, you can get those through read-only accessors on either the PCState type or the *Contexts. These are instAddr(), nextInstAddr(), and microPC(). Note the move away from readPC. That name is ambiguous since it's not clear whether or not it should be the actual address to fetch from, or if it should have extra bits in it like the PAL mode bit. Each class is free to define its own functions to get at whatever values it needs however it needs to to be used in ISA specific code. Eventually Alpha's PAL mode bit could be moved out of the PC and into a separate field like ARM.
These types can be reset to a particular pc (where npc = pc + sizeof(MachInst), nnpc = npc + sizeof(MachInst), upc = 0, nupc = 1 as appropriate), printed, serialized, and compared. There is a branching() function which encapsulates code in the CPU models that checked if an instruction branched or not. Exactly what that means in the context of branch delay slots which can skip an instruction when not taken is ambiguous, and ideally this function and its uses can be eliminated. PCStates also generally know how to advance themselves in various ways depending on if they point at an instruction, a microop, or the last microop of a macroop. More on that later.
Ideally, accessing all the PCs at once when setting them will improve performance of M5 even though more data needs to be moved around. This is because often all the PCs need to be manipulated together, and by getting them all at once you avoid multiple function calls. Also, the PCs of a particular thread will have spatial locality in the cache. Previously they were grouped by element in arrays which spread out accesses.
Advancing the PC:
The PCs were previously managed entirely by the CPU which had to know about PC semantics, try to figure out which dimension to increment the PC in, what to set NPC/NNPC, etc. These decisions are best left to the ISA in conjunction with the PC type itself. Because most of the information about how to increment the PC (mainly what type of instruction it refers to) is contained in the instruction object, a new advancePC virtual function was added to the StaticInst class. Subclasses provide an implementation that moves around the right element of the PC with a minimal amount of decision making. In ISAs like Alpha, the instructions always simply assign NPC to PC without having to worry about micropcs, nnpcs, etc. The added cost of a virtual function call should be outweighed by not having to figure out as much about what to do with the PCs and mucking around with the extra elements.
One drawback of making the StaticInsts advance the PC is that you have to actually have one to advance the PC. This would, superficially, seem to require decoding an instruction before fetch could advance. This is, as far as I can tell, realistic. fetch would advance through memory addresses, not PCs, perhaps predicting new memory addresses using existing ones. More sophisticated decisions about control flow would be made later on, after the instruction was decoded, and handed back to fetch. If branching needs to happen, some amount of decoding needs to happen to see that it's a branch, what the target is, etc. This could get a little more complicated if that gets done by the predecoder, but I'm choosing to ignore that for now.
Variable length instructions:
To handle variable length instructions in x86 and ARM, the predecoder now takes in the current PC by reference to the getExtMachInst function. It can modify the PC however it needs to (by setting NPC to be the PC + instruction length, for instance). This could be improved since the CPU doesn't know if the PC was modified and always has to write it back.
ISA parser:
To support the new API, all PC related operand types were removed from the parser and replaced with a PCState type. There are two warts on this implementation. First, as with all the other operand types, the PCState still has to have a valid operand type even though it doesn't use it. Second, using syntax like PCS.npc(target) doesn't work for two reasons, this looks like the syntax for operand type overriding, and the parser can't figure out if you're reading or writing. Instructions that use the PCS operand (which I've consistently called it) need to first read it into a local variable, manipulate it, and then write it back out.
Return address stack:
The return address stack needed a little extra help because, in the presence of branch delay slots, it has to merge together elements of the return PC and the call PC. To handle that, a buildRetPC utility function was added. There are basically only two versions in all the ISAs, but it didn't seem short enough to put into the generic ISA directory. Also, the branch predictor code in O3 and InOrder were adjusted so that they always store the PC of the actual call instruction in the RAS, not the next PC. If the call instruction is a microop, the next PC refers to the next microop in the same macroop which is probably not desirable. The buildRetPC function advances the PC intelligently to the next macroop (in an ISA specific way) so that that case works.
Change in stats:
There were no change in stats except in MIPS and SPARC in the O3 model. MIPS runs in about 9% fewer ticks. SPARC runs with 30%-50% fewer ticks, which could likely be improved further by setting call/return instruction flags and taking advantage of the RAS.
TODO:
Add != operators to the PCState classes, defined trivially to be !(a==b). Smooth out places where PCs are split apart, passed around, and put back together later. I think this might happen in SPARC's fault code. Add ISA specific constructors that allow setting PC elements without calling a bunch of accessors. Try to eliminate the need for the branching() function. Factor out Alpha's PAL mode pc bit into a separate flag field, and eliminate places where it's blindly masked out or tested in the PC.

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.

ARM/O3: store the result of the predicate evaluation in DynInst or Threadstate. THis allows the CPU to handle predicated-false instructions accordingly. This particular patch makes loads that are predicated-false to be sent straight to the commit stage directly, not waiting for return of the data that was never requested since it was predicated-false.

CPU: Set a default value when readBytes faults.
This was being done in read(), but if readBytes was called directly it wouldn't happen. Also, instead of setting the memory blob being read to -1 which would (I believe) require using memset with -1 as a parameter, this now uses bzero. It's hoped that it's more specialized behavior will make it slightly faster.

O3PCU: Split loads and stores that cross cache line boundaries.
When each load or store is sent to the LSQ, we check whether it will cross a cache line boundary and, if so, split it in two. This creates two TLB translations and two memory requests. Care has to be taken if the first packet of a split load is sent but the second blocks the cache. Similarly, for a store, if the first packet cannot be sent, we must store the second one somewhere to retry later.
This modifies the LSQSenderState class to record both packets in a split load or store.
Finally, a new const variable, HasUnalignedMemAcc, is added to each ISA to indicate whether unaligned memory accesses are allowed. This is used throughout the changed code so that compiler can optimise away code dealing with split requests for ISAs that don't need them.

BaseDynInst: Make the TLB translation timing instead of atomic.
This initiates a timing translation and passes the read or write on to the processor before waiting for it to finish. Once the translation is finished, the instruction's state is updated via the 'finish' function. A new DataTranslation class is created to handle this.
The idea is taken from the implementation of timing translations in TimingSimpleCPU by Gabe Black. This patch also separates out the timing translations from this CPU and uses the new DataTranslation class.

Two fixes: 1. Requests are handled more properly now. They assume the memory system takes control of the request upon sending out an access. 2. load-load ordering is maintained.
src/cpu/base_dyn_inst.hh: Update how requests are handled. The BaseDynInst should not be able to hold a pointer to the request because the request becomes owned by the memory system once it is sent out.
Also include some functions to allow certain status bits to be cleared. src/cpu/base_dyn_inst_impl.hh: Update how requests are handled. The BaseDynInst should not be able to hold a pointer to the request because the request becomes owned by the memory system once it is sent out. src/cpu/o3/fetch_impl.hh: General correctness fixes. retryPkt is not necessarily always set, so handle it properly. Also consider the cache unblocked only when recvRetry is called. src/cpu/o3/lsq_unit.hh: Handle requests a little more correctly. Now that the requests aren't pointed to by the DynInst, be sure to delete the request if it's not being used by the memory system.
Also be sure to not store-load forward from an uncacheable store. src/cpu/o3/lsq_unit_impl.hh: Check to make sure load-load ordering was maintained.
Also handle requests a little more correctly.

This changeset gets the MIPS ISA pretty much working in the O3CPU. It builds, runs, and gets very very close to completing the hello world succesfully but there are some minor quirks to iron out. Who would've known a DELAY SLOT introduces that much complexity?! arrgh!
Anyways, a lot of this stuff had to do with my project at MIPS and me needing to know how I was going to get this working for the MIPS ISA. So I figured I would try to touch it up and throw it in here (I hate to introduce non-completely working components... )

Two updates that got combined into one ChangeSet accidentally. They're both pretty simple so they shouldn't cause any trouble.
First: Rename FullCPU and its variants in the o3 directory to O3CPU to differentiate from the old model, and also to specify it's an out of order model.
Second: Include build options for selecting the Checker to be used. These options make sure if the Checker is being used there is a CPU that supports it also being compiled.
SConstruct: Add in option USE_CHECKER to allow for not compiling in checker code. The checker is enabled through this option instead of through the CPU_MODELS list. However it's still necessary to treat the Checker like a CPU model, so it is appended onto the CPU_MODELS list if enabled. configs/test/test.py: Name change for DetailedCPU to DetailedO3CPU.

Reorganization/renaming of CPUExecContext. Now it is called SimpleThread in order to clear up the confusion due to the many ExecContexts. It also derives from a common ThreadState object, which holds various state common to threads across CPU models.
Following with the previous check-in, ExecContext now refers only to the interface provided to the ISA in order to access CPU state. ThreadContext refers to the interface provided to all objects outside the CPU in order to access thread state. SimpleThread provides all thread state and the interface to access it, and is suitable for simple execution models such as the SimpleCPU.
src/SConscript: Include thread state file. src/arch/alpha/ev5.cc: src/cpu/checker/cpu.cc: src/cpu/checker/cpu.hh: src/cpu/checker/thread_context.hh: src/cpu/memtest/memtest.cc: src/cpu/memtest/memtest.hh: src/cpu/o3/cpu.cc: src/cpu/ozone/cpu_impl.hh: src/cpu/simple/atomic.cc: src/cpu/simple/base.cc: src/cpu/simple/base.hh: src/cpu/simple/timing.cc: Rename CPUExecContext to SimpleThread. src/cpu/base_dyn_inst.hh: Make thread member variables protected.. src/cpu/o3/alpha_cpu.hh: src/cpu/o3/cpu.hh: Make various members of ThreadState protected. src/cpu/o3/alpha_cpu_impl.hh: Push generation of TranslatingPort into the CPU itself. Make various members of ThreadState protected. src/cpu/o3/thread_state.hh: Pull a lot of common code into the base ThreadState class. src/cpu/ozone/thread_state.hh: Rename CPUExecContext to SimpleThread, move a lot of common code into base ThreadState class. src/cpu/thread_state.hh: Push a lot of common code into base ThreadState class. This goes along with renaming CPUExecContext to SimpleThread, and making it derive from ThreadState. src/cpu/simple_thread.cc: Rename CPUExecContext to SimpleThread, make it derive from ThreadState. This helps push a lot of common code/state into a single class that can be used by all CPUs. src/cpu/simple_thread.hh: Rename CPUExecContext to SimpleThread, make it derive from ThreadState. src/kern/system_events.cc: Rename cpu_exec_context to thread_context. src/sim/process.hh: Remove unused forward declaration.

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.

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.
