The function had been introduced in the past when we needed to
instantiate either an ArmSystem or a LinuxArmSystem depending on the
workload. Now that the workload object has been introduced in gem5, we
always instantiate an ArmSystem in FS mode, hence we don't need a
function to generate the System object

This patch add a new Ruby cache coherence protocol based on Arm' AMBA5
CHI specification. The CHI protocol defines and implements two state
machine types:
- Cache_Controller: generic cache controller that can be configured as:
- Top-level L1 I/D cache
- A intermediate level (L2, L3, ...) private or shared cache
- A CHI home node (i.e. the point of coherence of the system and
has the global directory)
- A DMA requester
- Memory_Controller: implements a CHI slave node and interfaces with
gem5 memory controller. This controller has the functionality of a
Directory_Controller on the other Ruby protocols, except it doesn't
have a directory.
The Cache_Controller has multiple cache allocation/deallocation
parameters to control the clusivity with respect to upstream caches.
Allocation can be completely disabled to use Cache_Controller as a
DMA requester or as a home node without a shared LLC.
The standard configuration file configs/ruby/CHI.py provides a
'create_system' compatible with configs/example/fs.py and
configs/example/se.py and creates a system with private L1/L2 caches
per core and a shared LLC at the home nodes. Different cache topologies
can be defined by modifying 'create_system' or by creating custom
scripts using the structures defined in configs/ruby/CHI.py.
This patch also includes the 'CustomMesh' topology script to be used
with CHI. CustomMesh generates a 2D mesh topology with the placement
of components manually defined in a separate configuration file using
the --noc-config parameter.
The example in configs/example/noc_config/2x4.yaml creates a simple 2x4
mesh. For example, to run a SE mode simulation, with 4 cores,
4 mem ctnrls, and 4 home nodes (L3 caches):
build/ARM/gem5.opt configs/example/se.py \
--cmd 'tests/test-progs/hello/bin/arm/linux/hello' \
--ruby --num-cpus=4 --num-dirs=4 --num-l3caches=4 \
--topology=CustomMesh --noc-config=configs/example/noc_config/2x4.yaml
If one doesn't care about the component placement on the interconnect,
the 'Crossbar' and 'Pt2Pt' may be used and they do not require the
--noc-config option.

Event creation and management support from emulated drivers is required
to support interruptible signals in HSA and this support was not
available. This changeset adds the event creation and management support
in the emulated driver. With this patch, each interruptible signal
created by the HSA runtime is associated with a signal event. The HSA
runtime can then put a thread waiting on a signal condition to sleep
asking the driver to monitor the event associated with that signal. If
the signal is modified by the GPU, the dispatcher notifies the driver
about signal value change. If the modifier is a CPU thread, the thread
will have to make HSA API calls to modify the signal and these API calls
will notify the driver about signal value change. Once the driver is
notified about a change in the signal value, the driver checks to see if
any thread is sleeping on that signal and wake up the sleeping thread
associated with that event. The driver has also implemented the time_out
wakeup that can wake up the thread after a certain time period has
expired. This is also true for barrier packets.
Each signal has an event address in a kernel managed and allocated
event page that can be used as a mailbox pointer to notify an event.
However, this feature used by non-CPU agents to communicate with the
driver is not implemented by this changeset because the non-CPU HSA
agents in our model can directly communicate with driver in our
implementation. Having said that, adding that feature should be trivial
because the event address and event pages are correctly setup by this
changeset and just adding the event page's virtual address to our PIO
doorbell interface in the page tables and registering that pio address
to the driver should be sufficient. Managing mailbox pointer for an
event is based on event ID and using this event ID as an index into
event page, this changeset already provides a unique mailbox pointer for
each event.

This might be the case for firmware images like edkII

Before the commit, the bootloader had a hardcoded entry point that it
would jump to.
However, the Linux kernel arm64 v5.8 forced us to change the kernel
entry point because the required memory alignment has changed at:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/
commit/?h=v5.8&id=cfa7ede20f133cc81cef01dc3a516dda3a9721ee
Therefore the only way to have a single bootloader that boots both
pre-v5.8 and post-v5.8 kernels is to pass that information from gem5
to the bootloader, which we do in this patch via registers.
This approach was already used by the 32-bit bootloader, which passed
that value via r3, and we try to use the same register x3 in 64-bit.
Since we are now passing this information, the this patch also removes
the hardcoding of DTB and cpu-release-addr, and also passes those
values via registers.
We store the cpu-release-addr in x5 as that value appears to have a
function similar to flags_addr, which is used only in 32-bit arm and
gets stored in r5.
This commit renames atags_addr to dtb_addr, since both are mutually
exclusive, and serve a similar purpose, DTB being the newer recommended
approach.
Similarly, flags_addr is renamed to cpu_release_addr, and it is moved
from ArmSystem into ArmFsWorkload, since it is not an intrinsic system
property, and should be together with dtb_addr instead.
Before this commit, flags_addr was being set from FSConfig.py and
configs/example/arm/devices.py to self.realview.realview_io.pio_addr
+ 0x30. This commit moves that logic into RealView.py instead, and
sets the flags address 8 bytes before the start of the DTB address.

When the TokenPort was moved from the GCN3 staging branch to develop the
TokenPort was changed from being the port connecting the ComputeUnit to
Ruby's vector memory port to a sideband port which inhibits requests to
Ruby's vector memory port. As such, it needs to be explicitly connected
as a new port. This changes the getPort method in ComputeUnit to be
aware of the port as well as modifying the example config to connect to
TCPs.
The iteration to connect in the config file was modified since it was
not properly connecting to TCPs each time and Ruby.py does not
explicitly return a list of each MachineType.
