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.

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: banked cache array resource model

This patch models a cache as separate tag and data arrays. The patch exposes
the banked array as another resource that is checked by SLICC before a
transition is allowed to execute. This is similar to how TBE entries and slots
in output ports are modeled.

ruby: memory controllers now inherit from an abstract "MemoryControl" class

MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural ports

Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable
all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has
the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem
and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address
maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is
used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong
to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data
port in a port proxy.

The following replacements are made:
FunctionalPort > PortProxy
TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy
VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy

gcc: fix unused variable warnings from GCC 4.6.1

BuildEnv: Eliminate RUBY as build environment variable
This patch replaces RUBY with PROTOCOL in all the SConscript files as
the environment variable that decides whether or not certain components
of the simulator are compiled.


# 8439:559ef3da5dac 01-Jul-2011 Nilay Vaish<nilay@cs.wisc.edu>

Ruby: Commit files missing from previous commit
The previous commit on functional access support in Ruby did not have
some of the files required. This patch adds those files to the repository.

Ruby: Add support for functional accesses
This patch rpovides functional access support in Ruby. Currently only
the M5Port of RubyPort supports functional accesses. The support for
functional through the PioPort will be added as a separate patch.


# 8191:777459f7c61f 31-Mar-2011 Lisa Hsu <Lisa.Hsu@amd.com>

Ruby: Add new object called WireBuffer to mimic a Wire.
This is a substitute for MessageBuffers between controllers where you don't
want messages to actually go through the Network, because requests/responses can
always get reordered wrt to one another (even if you turn off Randomization and turn on Ordered)
because you are, after all, going through a network with contention. For systems where you model
multiple controllers that are very tightly coupled and do not actually go through a network,
it is a pain to have to write a coherence protocol to account for mixed up request/response orderings
despite the fact that it's completely unrealistic. This is *not* meant as a substitute for real
MessageBuffers when messages do in fact go over a network.

ruby: Converted old ruby debug calls to M5 debug calls

This patch developed by Nilay Vaish converts all the old GEMS-style ruby
debug calls to the appropriate M5 debug calls.


# 7544:90c5eb6a5e66 20-Aug-2010 Brad Beckmann <Brad.Beckmann@amd.com>

memtest: Memtester support for DMA

This patch adds DMA testing to the Memtester and is inherits many changes from
Polina's old tester_dma_extension patch. Since Ruby does not work in atomic
mode, the atomic mode options are removed.


# 7025:9adf5b0ccc79 22-Mar-2010 Brad Beckmann <Brad.Beckmann@amd.com>

ruby: Ruby support for sparse memory

The patch includes direct support for the MI example protocol.


# 7023:185ad61a4117 22-Mar-2010 Brad Beckmann <Brad.Beckmann@amd.com>

ruby: Ruby support for LLSC


# 6876:a658c315512c 29-Jan-2010 Steve Reinhardt <steve.reinhardt@amd.com>

ruby: Convert most Ruby objects to M5 SimObjects.
The necessary companion conversion of Ruby objects generated by SLICC
are converted to M5 SimObjects in the following patch, so this patch
alone does not compile.
Conversion of Garnet network models is also handled in a separate
patch; that code is temporarily disabled from compiling to allow
testing of interim code.

Resurrection of the CMP token protocol to GEM5

scons: update SCons files for changes in ruby.


# 6168:ba6fe02228db 11-May-2009 Nathan Binkert <nate@binkert.org>

ruby: add RUBY sticky option that must be set to add ruby to the build
Default is false

ruby: decommission code

1. Set.* and BigSet.* are replaced with OptBigSet.* which was renamed Set.*
2. Decomissioned all bloom filters
3. Decomissioned ruby/simics directory


# 6157:eaf2fd8f54c0 11-May-2009 Nathan Binkert <nate@binkert.org>

ruby: Migrate all of ruby and slicc to SCons.
Add the PROTOCOL sticky option sets the coherence protocol that slicc
will parse and therefore ruby will use. This whole process was made
difficult by the fact that the set of files that are output by slicc
are not easily known ahead of time. The easiest thing wound up being
to write a parser for slicc that would tell me. Incidentally this
means we now have a slicc grammar written in python.
