974a47dfb9 misc: Adopt the gem5 namespace
Apply the gem5 namespace to the codebase.

Some anonymous namespaces could theoretically be removed,
but since this change's main goal was to keep conflicts
at a minimum, it was decided not to modify much the
general shape of the files.

A few missing comments of the form "// namespace X" that
occurred before the newly added "} // namespace gem5"
have been added for consistency.

std out should not be included in the gem5 namespace, so
they weren't.

ProtoMessage has not been included in the gem5 namespace,
since I'm not familiar with how proto works.

Regarding the SystemC files, although they belong to gem5,
they actually perform integration between gem5 and SystemC;
therefore, it deserved its own separate namespace.

Files that are automatically generated have been included
in the gem5 namespace.

The .isa files currently are limited to a single namespace.
This limitation should be later removed to make it easier
to accomodate a better API.

Regarding the files in util, gem5:: was prepended where
suitable. Notice that this patch was tested as much as
possible given that most of these were already not
previously compiling.

330a5f7bad misc: BaseCPU using ArchMMU instead of ArchDTB/ArchITB
With this commit we replace every TLB pointer stored in the
cpu model with a BaseMMU pointer.

9a8d60da0e cpu: Apply the ARM TLB rework to the checker CPU.
The TLBs now create the stage 2 MMUs as children, and since those are
specialized for instruction and data, the CPU needs to use ArmITB or
ArmDTB instead of ArmTLB which is the base class without an MMU. This
was changed for the BaseCPU already, but the TLBs are added in the
checker CPU as well.

ef71a987c1 python: Don't assume SimObjects live in the global namespace
The importer in Python 3 doesn't like the way we import SimObjects
from the global namespace. Convert the existing SimObject declarations
to import from m5.objects. As a side-effect, this makes these files
consistent with configuration files.

0bb50e6745 scons: Switch from the print statement to the print function.
Starting with version 3, scons imposes using the print function instead
of the print statement in code it processes. To get things building
again, this change moves all python code within gem5 to use the
function version. Another change by another author separately made this
same change to the site_tools and site_init.py files.

c52190a695 cpu: simple: Add support for using branch predictors
This changesets adds branch predictor support to the
BaseSimpleCPU. The simple CPUs normally don't need a branch predictor,
however, there are at least two cases where it can be desirable:

  1) A simple CPU can be used to warm the branch predictor of an O3
     CPU before switching to the slower O3 model.

  2) The simple CPU can be used as a quick way of evaluating/debugging
     new branch predictors since it exposes branch predictor
     statistics.

Limitations:
  * Since the simple CPU doesn't speculate, only one instruction will
    be active in the branch predictor at a time (i.e., the branch
    predictor will never see speculative branches).

  * The outcome of a branch prediction does not affect the performance
    of the simple CPU.

c0ab52799c sim: Include object header files in SWIG interfaces
When casting objects in the generated SWIG interfaces, SWIG uses
classical C-style casts ( (Foo *)bar; ). In some cases, this can
degenerate into the equivalent of a reinterpret_cast (mainly if only a
forward declaration of the type is available). This usually works for
most compilers, but it is known to break if multiple inheritance is
used anywhere in the object hierarchy.

This patch introduces the cxx_header attribute to Python SimObject
definitions, which should be used to specify a header to include in
the SWIG interface. The header should include the declaration of the
wrapped object. We currently don't enforce header the use of the
header attribute, but a warning will be generated for objects that do
not use it.

af6aaf2581 CheckerCPU: Re-factor CheckerCPU to be compatible with current gem5
Brings the CheckerCPU back to life to allow FS and SE checking of the
O3CPU.  These changes have only been tested with the ARM ISA.  Other
ISAs potentially require modification.

ee62a0fec8 params: Convert the CPU objects to use the auto generated param structs.
A whole bunch of stuff has been converted to use the new params stuff, but
the CPU wasn't one of them.  While we're at it, make some things a bit
more stylish. Most of the work was done by Gabe, I just cleaned stuff up
a bit more at the end.
