stats: Fixing regStats function for some SimObjects
Fixing an issue with regStats not calling the parent class method for most SimObjects in Gem5. This causes issues if one adds new stats in the base class (since they are never initialized properly!).

power: Add power states to ClockedObject
Add 4 power states to the ClockedObject, provides necessary access functions to check and update the power state. Default power state is UNDEFINED, it is responsibility of the respective simulation model to provide the startup state and any other logic for state change.
Add number of transition stat. Add distribution of time spent in clock gated state. Add power state residency stat.
Add dump call back function to allow stats update of distribution and residency stats.

ruby: message buffer, timer table: significant changes
This patch changes MessageBuffer and TimerTable, two structures used for buffering messages by components in ruby. These structures would no longer maintain pointers to clock objects. Functions in these structures have been changed to take as input current time in Tick. Similarly, these structures will not operate on Cycle valued latencies for different operations. The corresponding functions would need to be provided with these latencies by components invoking the relevant functions. These latencies should also be in Ticks.
I felt the need for these changes while trying to speed up ruby. The ultimate aim is to eliminate Consumer class and replace it with an EventManager object in the MessageBuffer and TimerTable classes. This object would be used for scheduling events. The event itself would contain information on the object and function to be invoked.
In hindsight, it seems I should have done this while I was moving away from use of a single global clock in the memory system. That change led to introduction of clock objects that replaced the global clock object. It never crossed my mind that having clock object pointers is not a good design. And now I really don't like the fact that we have separate consumer, receiver and sender pointers in message buffers.

ruby: Expose MessageBuffers as SimObjects
Expose MessageBuffers from SLICC controllers as SimObjects that can be manipulated in Python. This patch has numerous benefits: 1) First and foremost, it exposes MessageBuffers as SimObjects that can be manipulated in Python code. This allows parameters to be set and checked in Python code to avoid obfuscating parameters within protocol files. Further, now as SimObjects, MessageBuffer parameters are printed to config output files as a way to track parameters across simulations (e.g. buffer sizes)
2) Cleans up special-case code for responseFromMemory buffers, and aligns their instantiation and use with mandatoryQueue buffers. These two special buffers are the only MessageBuffers that are exposed to components outside of SLICC controllers, and they're both slave ends of these buffers. They should be exposed outside of SLICC in the same way, and this patch does it.
3) Distinguishes buffer-specific parameters from buffer-to-network parameters. Specifically, buffer size, randomization, ordering, recycle latency, and ports are all specific to a MessageBuffer, while the virtual network ID and type are intrinsics of how the buffer is connected to network ports. The former are specified in the Python object, while the latter are specified in the controller *.sm files. Unlike buffer-specific parameters, which may need to change depending on the simulated system structure, buffer-to-network parameters can be specified statically for most or all different simulated systems.

ruby: replace g_ruby_start with per-RubySystem m_start_cycle
This patch begins the process of removing global variables from the Ruby source with the goal of eventually allowing users to create multiple Ruby instances in a single simulation. Currently, users cannot do so because several global variables and static members are referenced by the RubySystem object in a way that assumes that there will only ever be a single RubySystem. These need to be replaced with per-RubySystem equivalents.
This specific patch replaces the global var g_ruby_start, which is used to calculate throughput statistics for Throttles in simple networks and links in Garnet networks, with a RubySystem instance var m_start_cycle.

ruby: network: revert some of the changes from ad9c042dce54 The changeset ad9c042dce54 made changes to the structures under the network directory to use a map of buffers instead of vector of buffers. The reasoning was that not all vnets that are created are used and we needlessly allocate more buffers than required and then iterate over them while processing network messages. But the move to map resulted in a slow down which was pointed out by Andreas Hansson. This patch moves things back to using vector of message buffers.

ruby: message buffers: significant changes
This patch is the final patch in a series of patches. The aim of the series is to make ruby more configurable than it was. More specifically, the connections between controllers are not at all possible (unless one is ready to make significant changes to the coherence protocol). Moreover the buffers themselves are magically connected to the network inside the slicc code. These connections are not part of the configuration file.
This patch makes changes so that these connections will now be made in the python configuration files associated with the protocols. This requires each state machine to expose the message buffers it uses for input and output. So, the patch makes these buffers configurable members of the machines.
The patch drops the slicc code that usd to connect these buffers to the network. Now these buffers are exposed to the python configuration system as Master and Slave ports. In the configuration files, any master port can be connected any slave port. The file pyobject.cc has been modified to take care of allocating the actual message buffer. This is inline with how other port connections work.

ruby: move files from ruby/system to ruby/structures
The directory ruby/system is crowded and unorganized. Hence, the files the hold actual physical structures, are being moved to the directory ruby/structures. This includes Cache Memory, Directory Memory, Memory Controller, Wire Buffer, TBE Table, Perfect Cache Memory, Timer Table, Bank Array.
The directory ruby/systems has the glue code that holds these structures together.

ruby: Statically allocate stats in SimpleNetwork, Switch, Throttle
The previous changeset (9863:9483739f83ee) used STL vector containers to dynamically allocate stats in the Ruby SimpleNetwork, Switch and Throttle. For gcc versions before at least 4.6.3, this causes the standard vector allocator to call Stats copy constructors (a no-no, since stats should be allocated in the body of each SimObject instance). Since the size of these stats arrays is known at compile time (NOTE: after code generation), this patch changes their allocation to be static rather than using an STL vector.

ruby: enable multiple clock domains This patch allows ruby to have multiple clock domains. As I understand with this patch, controllers can have different frequencies. The entire network needs to run at a single frequency.
The idea is that with in an object, time is treated in terms of cycles. But the messages that are passed from one entity to another should contain the time in Ticks. As of now, this is only true for the message buffers, but not for the links in the network. As I understand the code, all the entities in different networks (simple, garnet-fixed, garnet-flexible) should be clocked at the same frequency.
Another problem is that the directory controller has to operate at the same frequency as the ruby system. This is because the memory controller does not make use of the Message Buffer, and instead implements a buffer of its own. So, it has no idea of the frequency at which the directory controller is operating and uses ruby system's frequency for scheduling events.

Ruby: use ClockedObject in Consumer class Many Ruby structures inherit from the Consumer, which is used for scheduling events. The Consumer used to relay on an Event Manager for scheduling events and on g_system_ptr for time. With this patch, the Consumer will now use a ClockedObject to schedule events and to query for current time. This resulted in several structures being converted from SimObjects to ClockedObjects. Also, the MessageBuffer class now requires a pointer to a ClockedObject so as to query for time.

ruby: improved support for functional accesses This patch adds support to different entities in the ruby memory system for more reliable functional read/write accesses. Only the simple network has been augmented as of now. Later on Garnet will also support functional accesses. The patch adds functional access code to all the different types of messages that protocols can send around. These messages are functionally accessed by going through the buffers maintained by the network entities. The patch also rectifies some of the bugs found in coherence protocols while testing the patch.
With this patch applied, functional writes always succeed. But functional reads can still fail.
