Individual register files, like the ones for scalar integer, floating
point, or condition code registers, are now declared as vectors of their
actual type. Accessing them is simple, since the register you want can
be accessed simply by indexing into the vector.
Unfortunately, that means the code that sets up that storage has to know
what that underlying type is, and that means knowing (and hard coding)
information about the ISA being built.
Instead, this change makes the SimpleThread and O3 PhysRegFile classes
store registers as vectors of bytes, and offsets into those vectors
using computed offsets. Because the elements of the register files are
forced to be offset by powers of 2, computing the offsets can be done
with a shift rather than a multiplication.
The accessors which actually pull values in and out of these vectors are
still specific to each register type and need to know what the
underlying type is, but this change pulls that one level out of the CPUs
towards their peripheral APIs. Later changes will factor these uses out
as well.

A (another) weird/terrible quirk of the architecture of the PC is that
the the highest order bit of the value which selects a register to read
from the CMOS NVRAM/RTC is stolen and repurposed to enable/disable NMIs
since the 286, if the internet is to be believed.
Fortunately We don't currently attempt to generate an NMI anywhere, and so
this bit won't do anything in gem5 currently.
Unfortunately if we treat this value as the real offset without masking
off this bit, if software attempts to disable NMIs with it, it will
trigger an out of bounds assert in the CMOS device.
This change makes the CMOS device slightly smarter and has it maintain
but ignore the NMI disabling bit.

It appears that there is a mechanism where you could either have a .m5
directory in your home directory, or set an M5_CONFIG environment
variable to some other directory, where you could put an options.py
file. That file would then be passed the options dict which gem5's main
had extracted from its args, which it could modify as it liked.
First, I suspect that this mechanism was basically unknown and was just
a dark corner of gem5 people had forgotten about. Getting rid of it
will help clear out old cruft.
Second, this sort of file reaching in and fiddling with gem5's internal
data structures is dangerous and fragile, and could in almost any case
be replaced with a wrapper script or shell alias.

to not only be in the environment variables external commands SCons runs

The near call instruction first attempts to store the return address on
the stack (the part of the instruction that could fail), and then if
that succeeds it decrements the stack pointer to point at the newly
stored data.
Unfortunately, the microcode was not using the same offset between
those two steps. Specifically it was using the effective operand size
when storing the return address, but then incorrectly using the
effective stack size when adjusting the stack pointer.
This change updates the microcode to use the effective operand size in
both places.

By default, registers are the size of RegVal, the type often used to
store them. For some types of registers, like vector or vector predicate
registers, the size of each individual register is larger, and can't fit
in a primitive type.
To help facilitate storing even these outliers in a generalized way,
this change adds two fields to RegClassInfo to track the size of
individual registers. One tracks the raw size of the registers
themselves, and the other tracks the minimal shift necessary to find the
offset of a register in a contiguous(ish) array of bytes. By forcing
each register to be aligned to a power of two boundary, we avoid having
to do a multiplication to find their address even if the registers are
oddly sized. We can instead do a shift with a precomputed shift amount
which should be faster.

The KvmVM will declare itself to the System object, instead of the other
way around. This way the System object can just keep an opaque KvmVM
pointer which does not depend on the KvmVM code even being compiled into
gem5. If there is a KvmVM object, that can more safely assume there is a
corresponding System object to attach itself to.
Also move use of the KvmVM pointer out of constructors, since the VM may
not have registered itself with the System object yet. Those uses can
happen in the init() method instead.

the presence of redistributor registers up to the system register

We therefore make the current BaseGicRegisters interface GICv2 specific.

Disks now track the channel they're attached to so that that doesn't
have to be rediscovered by comparing points, channels know if they're
primary or secondary, and interrupts will now set the interrupt bit of
the channel they're associated with instead of always the primary.
Also the interrupt mechanism was adjusted slightly so that it's
implemented by a virtual function which knows whether the interrupt came
from the primary or secondary channel. That will make it possible to
implement separate interrupts, as required by the compatibility mode
which can be used with x86.

De-virtualize updateIntState and replace it with the new blockIntUpdate
in the MuxingKvmGic class.
The monolithic updateIntState is GicV2 specific and it is not compatible
with the more complex IRQ update logic in GicV3, which is delegating the
update to the destributor/redistributor/cpuinterface classes
Rather than stubbing the update function the MuxingKvmGic class, we
override the blockIntUpdate to return true in case a KVM gic is in use.
This is loosening the interface, not restricting any GIC implementation
to a specific update interface/design

Previously calling a function with an INT_MAX argument would result in
the following (incorrectly extended) trace:
```
lui a1, 524288 : IntAlu : D=0xffffffff80000000
c_addiw a1, -1 : IntAlu : D=0xffffffff7fffffff
```
I noticed this due to a kernel assertion that checked the second argument
was bigger than the first. Since INT_MAX was incorrectly being extended to
0xffffffff7fffffff, the generated slt comparison instruction was returning
1 instead of the expected zero (which would have happened with 0x7fffffff).
The problem in the current addiw logic is that the immediate value is an
int64_t, so the 32-bit Rs1/Rc1 values are promoted to 64-bit for the
aritmetic operation, thereby making the current cast redundant.
Fix this by placing parens around the whole expression and truncating
that to 32 bits.

Before this patch, the protobuf builder would search for dependencies
only at the build directory. This works if the importing .proto file
imports paths relative to the build directory, but it results in a build
failure if imports are done relative to the source directory of the
importing file.
This patch adds the source directory of the importing file to the set of
paths searched for dependencies, which solves this issue.

Before this patch, the protobuf scanner would detect implicit
dependencies only if the import statement used a path relative to the
build directory. A path with a different format would result in a build
failure.
This is inconvenient because it impedes .proto files within a source
directory to import each other relative to that source.
Moreover, this is critical for EXTRAS directories with .proto files,
because the paths are forced to include the EXTRAS directory itself.
After this patch, the protobuf scanner uses the Classic scanner from
SCons to also detect implicit dependencies in the source path of the
importing .proto file. Regex management is also delegated to the Classic
scanner.

In SimpleNetwork, switches were assigned an index depending on their

router_id parameter in other locations of the ruby network system (e.g.,
src and dst node parameter in links). If the router_id does not match the
position in SimpleNetwork::m_switches, the network initialization might
fail or implement a different topology from what the user intended. This
patch fixes this issue by storing switches in a map instead of a vector.
