This change introduces the concept of a faux-filesystem.
The faux-filesystem creates a directory structure in m5out
(or whatever output dir the user specifies) where system calls
may be redirected.
This is useful to avoid non-determinism when reading files
with varying path names (e.g., variations from run-to-run if
the simulation is scheduled on a cluster where paths may change).
Also, this changeset allows circumventing host pseudofiles which
have information specific to the host processor (such as cache
hierarchy or processor information). Bypassing host pseudofiles
can be useful when executing runtimes in the absence of an
operating system kernel since runtimes may try to query standard
files (i.e. /proc or /sys) which are not relevant to an
application executing in syscall emulation mode.

Change a66d12c guards the selection of getdents()
in x86's process.cc file with SYS_getdents, however
process.cc does not include the right header for
SYS_getdents, which leads to x86 choosing the
unimplemented call. This change adds sys/syscall.h to
address the problem.
This change also adds sys/syscall.hh to syscall_emu.cc,
which only includes syscall.hh and may not be supported on
all systems.

The implementation of the getdents syscall relies on SYS_getdents, which
is not available on all archs, because the getdents syscall has been
superseded by getdents64, and does not exist on newer archs such as
aarch64.
This leads the build to break on aarch64 hosts with error:
error: 'SYS_getdents' was not declared in this scope

The changeset does a major refactor on the exit, exit_group, and
futex system calls regarding exit functionality.
A FutexMap class and related structures are added into a new
file. This increases code clarity by encapsulating the futex
operations and the futex state into an object.
Several exit conditions were added to allow the simulator to end
processes under certain conditions. Also, the simulation only
exits now when all processes have finished executing.

Modifies the clone system call and adds execve system call. Requires allowing
processes to steal thread contexts from other processes in the same system
object and the ability to detach pieces of process state (such as MemState)
to allow dynamic sharing.
This changeset adds the ability to set a close-on-exec flag for a given
file descriptor. It also reworks some of the logic surrounding setting and
retrieving flags from the file description.
Several large changes happen in this patch.
The FDEntry class is rewritten so that file descriptors now correspond to
types: 'File' which is normal file-backed file with the file open on the
host machine, 'Pipe' which is a pipe that has been opened on the host machine,
and 'Device' which does not have an open file on the host yet acts as a pseudo
device with which to issue ioctls. Other types which might be added in the
future are directory entries and sockets (off the top of my head).
The FDArray class was create to hold most of the file descriptor handling
that was stuffed into the Process class. It uses shared pointers and
the std::array type to hold the FDEntries mentioned above.
The changes to these two classes needed to be propagated out to the rest
of the code so there were quite a few changes for that. Also, comments were
added where I thought they were needed to help others and extend our
DOxygen coverage.
The EIOProcess class was removed recently and it was the only other class
which derived from Process. Since every Process invocation is also a
LiveProcess invocation, it makes sense to simplify the organization by
combining the fields from LiveProcess into Process.
Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This
involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward
declarations could have been used rather than a full include.
The class was crammed into syscall_emul.hh which has tons of forward
declarations and template definitions. To clean it up a bit, moved the
class into separate files and commented the class with doxygen style
comments. Also, provided some encapsulation by adding some accessors and
a mutator.
The syscallreturn.hh file was renamed syscall_return.hh to make it consistent
with other similarly named files in the src/sim directory.
The DPRINTF_SYSCALL macro was moved into its own header file with the
include the Base and Verbose flags as well.
--HG--
rename : src/sim/syscallreturn.hh => src/sim/syscall_return.hh
Read() should not write anything when returning 0 (EOF).
This patch does not correct the same bug occuring for :
nbr_read=read(file, buf, nbytes)
When nbr_read<nbytes, nbytes bytes are copied into the virtual
RAM instead of nbr_read. If buf is smaller than nbytes, a
page fault occurs, even if buf is in fact bigger than nbr_read.

For O3, which has a stat that counts reg reads, there is an additional
reg read per mmap() call since there's an arg we no longer ignore.
Otherwise, stats should not be affected.
Breaks the debug output from system calls into two levels: Base and Verbose.
A macro is added specifically for system calls which allows developers to
easily add new debug messages in a consistent manner. The macro also contains
a field to print thread IDs along with the CPU ID.
The recent changeset to readlink() to handle reading the /proc/self/exe link
introduces a number of problems. This patch fixes two:
1) Because readlink() called on /proc/self/exe now uses LiveProcess::progName()
to find the binary path, it will only get the zeroth parameter of the simulated
system command line. However, if a config script also specifies the process'
executable, the executable parameter is used to create the LiveProcess rather
than the zeroth command line parameter. Thus, the zeroth command line parameter
is not necessarily the correct path to the binary executing in the simulated
system. To fix this, add a LiveProcess data member, 'executable', which is
correctly set during instantiation and returned from progName().
2) If a config script allows a user to pass a relative path as the zeroth
simulated system command line parameter or process executable, readlink() will
incorrecly return a relative path when called on '/proc/self/exe'.
/proc/self/exe is always set to a full path, so running benchmarks can fail if
a relative path is returned. To fix this, clean up the handling of
LiveProcess::progName() within readlink() to get the full binary path.
NOTE: This patch still leaves the potential problem that host full path to the
binary bleeds into the simulated system, potentially causing the appearance of
non-deterministic simulated system execution.
The Process class methods were using an improper style and this subsequently
bled into the system call code. The following regular expressions should be
helpful if someone transitions private system call patches on top of these
changesets:
s/alloc_fd/allocFD/
s/sim_fd(/simFD(/
s/sim_fd_obj/getFDEntry/
s/fix_file_offsets/fixFileOffsets/
s/find_file_offsets/findFileOffsets/
The patch clarifies whether file descriptors are host file descriptors or
target file descriptors in the system call code. (Host file descriptors
are file descriptors which have been allocated through real system calls
where target file descriptors are allocated from an array in the Process
class.)
This patch extends the previous patch's alterations around fd_map. It cleans
up some of the uglier code in the process file and replaces it with a more
concise C++11 version. As part of the changes, the FdMap class is pulled out
of the Process class and receives its own file.
This patch gets rid of unused Process::dup_fd method and does minor
refactoring in the process class files. The file descriptor max has been
changed to be the number of file descriptors since this clarifies the loop
boundary condition and cleans up the code a bit. The fd_map field has been
altered to be dynamically allocated as opposed to being an array; the
intention here is to build on this is subsequent patches to allow processes
to share their file descriptors with the clone system call.
The current ignoreWarnOnceFunc doesn't really work as expected,
since it will only generate one warning total, for whichever
"warn-once" syscall is invoked first. This patch fixes that
behavior by keeping a "warned" flag in the SyscallDesc object,
allowing suitably flagged syscalls to warn exactly once per
syscall.
added ARM aarch64 unlinkat syscall support, modeled on other <xxx>at syscalls.
This gets all of the cpu2006 int workloads passing in SE mode on aarch64.

This hook allows blocking emulated system calls to indicate
that they would block, but return control to the simulator
so that the simulation does not hang. The actual retry
functionality requires additional support, to be provided
in a future changeset.
The identifier SYS_getdents is not available on Mac OS X. Therefore, its use
results in compilation failure. It seems there is no straight forward way to
implement the system call getdents using readdir() or similar C functions.
Hence the commit 6709bbcf564d is being rolled back.
On exit_group syscall, we used to exit the simulator. But now we will only
