mem: Move ruby protocols into a directory called ruby_protocol.

Now that the gem5 protocols are split out, it would be nice to put them
in their own protocol directory. It's also confusing to have files
called *_protocol which are not in the protocol directory.

python: Make iterator handling Python 3 compatible

Many functions that used to return lists (e.g., dict.items()) now
return iterators and their iterator counterparts (e.g.,
dict.iteritems()) have been removed. Switch calls to the Python 2.7
iterator methods to use the Python 3 equivalent and add explicit list
conversions where necessary.

mem-ruby: Remove function that maps responses to a DMA engine

The function map_Address_to_DMA was used to route responses to the
first (and assumed to be the only) DMA engine in the system. This
function is now unused as protocols handle responses and route them to
the right DMA engine.

misc: Updates for gcc7.2 for x86

GCC 7.2 is much stricter than previous GCC versions. The following changes
are needed:

* There is now a warning if there is an implicit fallthrough between two
case statments. C++17 adds the [[fallthrough]]; declaration. However,
to support non C++17 standards (i.e., C++11), we use M5_FALLTHROUGH.
M5_FALLTHROUGH checks for [[fallthrough]] compliant C++17 compiler and
if that doesn't exist, it defaults to nothing (no older compilers
generate warnings).
* The above resulted in a couple of bugs that were found. This is noted
in the review request on gerrit.
* throw() for dynamic exception specification is deprecated
* There were a couple of new uninitialized variable warnings
* Can no longer perform bitwise operations on a bool.
* Must now include <functional> for std::function
* Compiler bug for void* lambda. Changed to auto as work around. See
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82878

ruby: Add support for address ranges in the directory

Previously the directory covered a flat address range that always
started from address 0. This change adds a vector of address ranges
with interleaving and hashing that each directory keeps track of and
the necessary flexibility to support systems with non continuous
memory ranges.

ruby: slicc: have a static MachineType

This patch is imported from reviewboard patch 2551 by Nilay.
This patch moves from a dynamically defined MachineType to a statically
defined one. The need for this patch was felt since a dynamically defined
type prevents us from having types for which no machine definition may
exist.

The following changes have been made:
i. each machine definition now uses a type from the MachineType enumeration
instead of any random identifier. This required changing the grammar and the
*.sm files.
ii. MachineType enumeration defined statically in RubySlicc_Exports.sm.
* * *
normal protocol fixes for nilay's parser machine type fix

ruby: print addresses in hex
Changeset 4872dbdea907 replaced Address by Addr, but did not make changes to
print statements. So the addresses which were being printed in hex earlier
along with their line address, were now being printed in decimals. This patch
adds a function printAddress(Addr) that can be used to print the address in hex
along with the lines address. This function has been put to use in some of the
places. At other places, change has been made to print just the address in
hex.

ruby: slicc: derive DataMember class from Var instead of PairContainer

The DataMember class in Type.py was being derived from PairContainer. A
separate Var object was also created for the DataMember. This meant some
duplication of across the members of these two classes (Var and DataMember).
This patch changes DataMember from Var instead. There is no obvious reason to
derive from PairContainer which can only hold pairs, something that Var class
already supports. The only thing that DataMember has over Var is init_code,
which is being retained. This change would later on help in having pointers
in DataMembers.

ruby: rename System.{hh,cc} to RubySystem.{hh,cc}

The eventual aim of this change is to pass RubySystem pointers through to
objects generated from the SLICC protocol code.

Because some of these objects need to dereference their RubySystem pointers,
they need access to the System.hh header file.

In src/mem/ruby/SConscript, the MakeInclude function creates single-line header
files in the build directory that do nothing except include the corresponding
header file from the source tree.

However, SLICC also generates a list of header files from its symbol table, and
writes it to mem/protocol/Types.hh in the build directory. This code assumes
that the header file name is the same as the class name.

The end result of this is the many of the generated slicc files try to include
RubySystem.hh, when the file they really need is System.hh. The path of least
resistence is just to rename System.hh to RubySystem.hh.

rest of the system.

ruby: replace global g_abs_controls with per-RubySystem var

This is another step in the process of removing global variables
from Ruby to enable multiple RubySystem instances in a single simulation.

The list of abstract controllers is per-RubySystem and should be
represented that way, rather than as a global.

Since this is the last remaining Ruby global variable, the
src/mem/ruby/Common/Global.* files are also removed.

ruby: replace global g_system_ptr with per-object pointers

This is another step in the process of removing global variables
from Ruby to enable multiple RubySystem instances in a single simulation.

With possibly multiple RubySystem objects, we can no longer use a global
variable to find "the" RubySystem object. Instead, each Ruby component
has to carry a pointer to the RubySystem object to which it belongs.

have been moved to the Message class, which was the parent of NetworkMessage.


# 10472:399f35ed5cca 16-Oct-2014 Andreas Hansson <andreas.hansson@arm.com>

mem: Use shared_ptr for Ruby Message classes

This patch transitions the Ruby Message and its derived classes from
the ad-hoc RefCountingPtr to the c++11 shared_ptr. There are no
changes in behaviour, and the code modifications are mainly replacing
"new" with "make_shared".

The cloning of derived messages is slightly changed as they previously
relied on overriding the base-class through covariant return types.


# 10307:6df951dcd7d9 01-Sep-2014 Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>

ruby: slicc: improve the grammar
This patch changes the grammar for SLICC so as to remove some of the
redundant / duplicate rules. In particular rules for object/variable
declaration and class member declaration have been unified. Similarly, the
rules for a general function and a class method have been unified.

One more change is in the priority of two rules. The first rule is on
declaring a function with all the params typed and named. The second rule is
on declaring a function with all the params only typed. Earlier the second
rule had a higher priority. Now the first rule has a higher priority.

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: profiler: lots of inter-related changes
The patch started of with removing the global variables from the profiler for
profiling the miss latency of requests made to the cache. The corrresponding
histograms have been moved to the Sequencer. These are combined together when
the histograms are printed. Separate histograms are now maintained for
tracking latency of all requests together, of hits only and of misses only.

A particular set of histograms used to use the type GenericMachineType defined
in one of the protocol files. This patch removes this type. Now, everything
that relied on this type would use MachineType instead. To do this, SLICC has
been changed so that multiple machine types can be declared by a controller
in its preamble.


# 9631:5ebde5544529 09-Apr-2013 Joel Hestness <jthestness@gmail.com>

Ruby: Add field to slicc machine for generic type

This allows you to have (i.e.) an L2 cache that is not named "L2Cache"
but is still a GenericMachineType_L2Cache. This is particularly
helpful if the protocol has multiple L2 controllers.

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: replaces Time with Cycles in many places

But to get ruby to compile, the rest of the changes had to be carried out.
Subsequent patches will further this process, till we completely replace
Time with Cycles.


# 9466:23e13ad7091f 14-Jan-2013 Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>

Ruby: remove reference to g_system_ptr from class Message
This patch was initiated so as to remove reference to g_system_ptr,
the pointer to Ruby System that is used for getting the current time.
That simple change actual requires changing a lot many things in slicc and
garnet. All these changes are related to how time is handled.

In most of the places, g_system_ptr has been replaced by another clock
object. The changes have been done under the assumption that all the
components in the memory system are on the same clock frequency, but the
actual clocks might be distributed.


# 9302:c2e70a9bc340 15-Oct-2012 Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>

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.


# 9298:9a087e046c58 15-Oct-2012 Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>

ruby: allow function definition in slicc structs

are being eliminated some of the unused functions from
RubySlicc_ComponentMapping.sm.

Ruby: pass Packet->Req->contextId() to Ruby.
It is useful for Ruby to understand from whence request packets came.
This has all request packets going into Ruby pass the contextId value, if
it exists. This supplants the old libruby proc_id value passed around in
all the Messages, so I've also removed the unused unsigned proc_id; member
generated by SLICC for all Message types.

ruby: get rid of RefCnt and Allocator stuff use base/refcnt.hh

This was somewhat tricky because the RefCnt API was somewhat odd. The
biggest confusion was that the the RefCnt object's constructor that
took a TYPE& cloned the object. I created an explicit virtual clone()
function for things that took advantage of this version of the
constructor. I was conservative and used clone() when I was in doubt
of whether or not it was necessary. I still think that there are
probably too many instances of clone(), but hopefully not too many.

I converted several instances of const MsgPtr & to a simple MsgPtr.
If the function wants to avoid the overhead of creating another
reference, then it should just use a regular pointer instead of a ref
counting ptr.

There were a couple of instances where refcounted objects were created
on the stack. This seems pretty dangerous since if you ever
accidentally make a reference to that object with a ref counting
pointer, bad things are bound to happen.
