This specialization will correspond specifically with the CortexA76,
instead of specializing the ThreadContext for ARM in general. Some
aspects of this class may need to move into the base IRIS thread
context class, but I'll leave that for a later change.

Fast models are in practice only ARM, so it's not that helpful to have
the ARM-ness factored out. It is, however, helpful to have aspects
which control how gem5 concepts like registers are mapped to fast model
concepts like resources, especially since these mappings may vary from
fast model to fast model.
For instance, it looks like the CortexA76 does not have predicate
vector registers. Rather than make all fast models support or not
support those registers, that can be done on a model by model basis.

This was hardcoded as 5, but should be determined based on the memory
space IDs the fast model returns. What we do now is have a specific
override for ARM (perhaps conceptually the A76) which looks for an
address space called "Current" which seems to work well.
It's possible that the appropriate address space for a different model
might have a different number, or even a different name. This may need
to be further specialized/parameterized in those cases.

These use the IRIS breakpoint API to stop the models at the appropriate
points. There seems to be a slightly wonky interaction between
breakpoints and stepping, where if you stop at a breakpoint and then
step, you might end up moving forward more than the number of requested
instructions.

This patch is updating the arm regression configs so that the newer
VExpress_GEM_V1 platform is used instead of the older VExpress_EMM and
VExpress_EMM64.
A new optional kernel_mode argument has been added in order to
distinguish between realview and realview64 platforms. If not provided
the config will assume the machine is running a AArch64 kernel.
Other notable additions:
- DTB autogeneration in regressions
- Using minimal m5exit.squashfs disk image

The granularity bit should be set since the segment limit should be
interpreted as a number of pages, not bytes.
A comment indicates that NX support is enabled, but the bit wasn't
being set. That's now set to be consistent with FS mode.
The SVME bit is now turned off, since Intel CPUs don't have SVME, and
enabling it apparently makes them upset.
Also disable CR4 bits which enable features neither gem5 nor apparently
my workstation support.

This will be used by the TLB to do the actual translation.
Unfortunately there isn't a great way to tell what translation type to
use, so we just go through all of them for now. The ARM subclass might

register state.

Other scripts (like se.py) blindly try to apply the indirect predictor
if one is set. Because this option defaults to something, there's no
way (as far as I know) to purposefully select nothing, and so the
simulator crashes. Users shouldn't have to proactively prevent gem5
from killing itself regardless, so the default was changed to "None".

9p allows the guest Linux kernel to mount a host directory into the guest.
This allows to very easily modify test programs after a run at the end of
boot, without the need to re-insert the changes into a disk image.
It is enabled on both fs.py and fs_bigLITTLE.py with the --vio-9p
option.
Adapted from code originally present on the wiki: http://gem5.org/WA-gem5
As documented in the CLI option help, the current setup requires the guest
to know the full path to the host share, which is annoying, but overcoming
that would require actually parsing a bit of the protocol rather than just
forwarding everything to diod.

In python 3, the curses escape sequences are bytes objects and not
strings, making them unsuitable to concatenate to strings which are
being print()-ed. This uses the decode() method to turn them from bytes
objects into string objects, assuming they represent UTF-8. In python
2, bytes objects and strings are treated interchangeably, and so this
isn't necessary.

The logic that determines which syscall to call was built into the
implementation of faults/exceptions or even into the instruction
decoder, but that logic can depend on what OS is being used, and
sometimes even what version, for example 32bit vs. 64bit.
This change pushes that logic up into the Process objects since those
already handle a lot of the aspects of emulating the guest OS. Instead,
the ISA or fault implementations just notify the rest of the system
that a nebulous syscall has happened, and that gets propogated upward
until the process does something with it. That's very analogous to how
a system call would work on a real machine.
When a system call happens, the low level component which detects that
should call tc->syscall(&fault), where tc is the relevant thread (or
execution) context, and fault is a Fault which can ultimately be set
by the system call implementation.
The TC implementor (probably a CPU) will then have a chance to do
whatever it needs to to handle a system call. Currently only O3 does
anything special here. That implementor will end up calling the
Process's syscall() method.
Once in Process::syscall, the process object will use it's contextual
knowledge to determine what system call is being requested. It then
calls Process::doSyscall with the right syscall number, where doSyscall
centralizes the common mechanism for actually retrieving and calling
into the system call implementation.

In Alpha and MIPS, the argc and argv values should be in what happens
to be the first and second syscall argument registers, but that's not
by definition. The process objects of both those ISAs know what
registers to use intrinsically, so there's also no reason to call out
to a helper method which acts as a part of the Process's interface to
the rest of gem5.
