misc: Rename misc.(hh|cc) to logging.(hh|cc)

These files aren't a collection of miscellaneous stuff, they're the
definition of the Logger interface, and a few utility macros for
calling into that interface (panic, warn, etc.).

style: [patch 3/22] reduce include dependencies in some headers

Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This
involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward
declarations could have been used rather than a full include.

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.

dev: prevent RTC events firing before startup

This change includes edits to MC146818 timer to prevent RTC events
firing before startup to comply with SimObject initialization call sequence.

# 9730:f3b53a5a559e 02-Jun-2013 Andreas Sandberg <andreas@sandberg.pp.se>

dev: Clean up MC146818 register (A & B) handling

Rewrite reg A & B handling to use the bitunion stuff instead of bit
masking. Add better error messages when the kernel tries to enable
unsupported stuff.

sim: have a curTick per eventq
This patch adds a _curTick variable to an eventq. This variable is updated
whenever an event is serviced in function serviceOne(), or all events upto
a particular time are processed in function serviceEvents(). This change
helps when there are eventqs that do not make use of curTick for scheduling
events.

AddrRange: Transition from Range<T> to AddrRange

This patch takes the final plunge and transitions from the templated
Range class to the more specific AddrRange. In doing so it changes the
obvious Range<Addr> to AddrRange, and also bumps the range_map to be
AddrRangeMap.

In addition to the obvious changes, including the removal of redundant
includes, this patch also does some house keeping in preparing for the
introduction of address interleaving support in the ranges. The Range
class is also stripped of all the functionality that is never used.


# 7823:dac01f14f20f 08-Jan-2011 Steve Reinhardt <steve.reinhardt@amd.com>

Replace curTick global variable with accessor functions.
This step makes it easy to replace the accessor functions
(which still access a global variable) with ones that access
per-thread curTick values.

devices: undo cset 017baf09599f that added timer drain functions.
It's not the right fix for the checkpoint deadlock problem
Brad was having, and creates another bug where the system can
deadlock on restore. Brad can't reproduce the original bug
right now, so we'll wait until it arises again and then try
to fix it the right way then.


# 7559:017baf09599f 20-Aug-2010 Brad Beckmann <Brad.Beckmann@amd.com>

devices: Fixed periodic interrupts to work with draining

Added drain functions to the RTC and 8254 timer so that periodic interrupts
stop when the system is draining. This patch is needed to checkpoint in
timing mode. Otherwise under certain situations, the event queue will never
be completely empty.

tick: rename Clock namespace to SimClock


# 6620:ade9a088bb14 20-Aug-2009 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

X86: Make the real time clock actually keep track of time.


# 5606:6da7a58b0bc8 09-Oct-2008 Nathan Binkert <nate@binkert.org>

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.


# 5392:c3a45fac35f8 25-Mar-2008 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

Devices: Separate out the MC146818 RTC so both Alpha and X86 can use it.
