mem: Minimize the use of MemObject.
MemObject doesn't provide anything beyond its base ClockedObject any more, so this change removes it from most inheritance hierarchies. Occasionally MemObject is replaced with SimObject when I was fairly confident that the extra functionality of ClockedObject wasn't needed.

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.

mem: Split port retry for all different packet classes
This patch fixes a long-standing isue with the port flow control. Before this patch the retry mechanism was shared between all different packet classes. As a result, a snoop response could get stuck behind a request waiting for a retry, even if the send/recv functions were split. This caused message-dependent deadlocks in stress-test scenarios.
The patch splits the retry into one per packet (message) class. Thus, sendTimingReq has a corresponding recvReqRetry, sendTimingResp has recvRespRetry etc. Most of the changes to the code involve simply clarifying what type of request a specific object was accepting.
The biggest change in functionality is in the cache downstream packet queue, facing the memory. This queue was shared by requests and snoop responses, and it is now split into two queues, each with their own flow control, but the same physical MasterPort. These changes fixes the previously seen deadlocks.

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.

Packet: Unify the use of PortID in packet and port
This patch removes the Packet::NodeID typedef and unifies it with the Port::PortId. The src and dest fields in the packet are used to hold a port id (e.g. in the bus), and thus the two should actually be the same.
The typedef PortID is now global (in base/types.hh) and aligned with the ThreadID in terms of capitalisation and naming of the InvalidPortID constant.
Before this patch, two flags were used for valid destination and source, rather than relying on a named value (InvalidPortID), and this is now redundant, as the src and dest field themselves are sufficient to tell whether the current value is a valid port identifier or not. Consequently, the VALID_SRC and VALID_DST are removed.
As part of the cleaning up, a number of int parameters and local variables are updated to use PortID.
Note that Ruby still has its own NodeID typedef. Furthermore, the MemObject getMaster/SlavePort still has an int idx parameter with a default value of -1 which should eventually change to PortID idx = InvalidPortID.

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: Add the PortId type and a corresponding id field to Port
This patch introduces the PortId type, moves the definition of INVALID_PORT_ID to the Port class, and also gives every port an id to reflect the fact that each element in a vector port has an identifier/index.
Previously the bus and Ruby testers (and potentially other users of the vector ports) added the id field in their port subclasses, and now this functionality is always present as it is moved to the base class.

Ruby: Use MasterPort base-class pointers where possible
This patch simplifies future patches by changing the pointer type used in a number of the Ruby testers to use MasterPort instead of using a derived CpuPort class. There is no reason for using the more specialised pointers, and there is no longer a need to do any casting.
With the latest changes to the tester, organising ports as readers and writes, things got a bit more complicated, and the "type" now had to be removed to be able to fall back to using MasterPort rather than CpuPort.

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.

Ruby: Simplify tester ports by not using SimpleTimingPort
This patch simplfies the master ports used by RubyDirectedTester and RubyTester by avoiding the use of SimpleTimingPort. Neither tester made any use of the functionality offered by SimpleTimingPort besides a trivial implementation of recvFunctional (only snoops) and recvRangeChange (not relevant since there is only one master).
The patch does not change or add any functionality, it merely makes the introduction of a master/slave port easier (in a future patch).

Adaptations to make gem5 compile and run on OSX 10.7.2, with a stock gcc 4.2.1 and the remaining dependencies from macports, i.e. python 2.7,.2 swig 2.0.4, mercurial 2.0. The changes include an adaptation of the SConstruct to handle non-library linker flags, and Darwin-specific code to find the memory usage of gem5. A number of Ruby files relied on ambigious uint (without the 32 suffix) which caused compilation errors.
