This class read arguments using the arch specific getArgument function
and then presented the arguments as an array. The problem with that
approach is that it's not possible to tell where different arguments
are without knowing the types of previous arguments, and not all
arguments can be simply represented as a native sized integer.
This class has been phased out and is no longer needed.

The pseudo instruction implementation is very short, and so doing the
work it was doing directly doesn't really add much to the
implementation of the udelay events. By not calling the pseudo
instruction we also uncouple these unrelated mechanisms and don't,
for instance, cause pseudo instruction debug output every time udelay
executes.

Information about what kernel to load and how to load it was built
into the System object and its subclasses. That overloaded the System
object and made it responsible for too many things, and also was
somewhat awkward when working with SE mode which doesn't have a kernel.
This change extracts the kernel and information related to it from the
System object and puts into into a OsKernel or Workload object.
Currently the idea of a "Workload" to run and a kernel are a bit
muddled, an unfortunate carry-over from the original code. It's also an
implication of trying not to make too sweeping of a change, and to
minimize the number of times configs need to change, ie avoiding
creating a "kernel" parameter which would shortly thereafter be
renamed to "workload".
In future changes, the ideas of a kernel and a workload will be
disentangled, and workloads will be expanded to include emulated
operating systems which shephard and contain Process-es for syscall
emulation.
This change was originally split into pieces to make reviewing it
easier. Those reviews are here:

Then cast to the ISA specific type when necessary. This removes
(mostly) an ISA specific aspect to some of the interfaces. The ISA
specific version of the kernel stats still needs to be constructed and
stored in a few places which means that kernel_stats.hh still needs to

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.

This patch implements FUTEX_WAKE_OP operation in the futex syscall.
Below is its description:
int futex(int *uaddr, int futex_op, int val,
const struct timespec *timeout,
int *uaddr2, int val3);
This operation was added to support some user-space use cases where more
than one futex must be handled at the same time. The most notable
example is the implementation of pthread_cond_signal(3), which requires
operations on two futexes, the one used to implement the mutex and the
one used in the implementation of the wait queue associated with the
condition variable. FUTEX_WAKE_OP allows such cases to be implemented
without leading to high rates of contention and context switching.

description from Linux man page:
futex syscall: int futex(int *uaddr, int futex_op, int val,
const struct timespec *timeout,
int *uaddr2, int val3);
This operation first checks whether the location uaddr still contains
the value val3. If not, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN.
Otherwise, the operation wakes up a maximum of val waiters that are
waiting on the futex at uaddr. If there are more than val waiters, then
the remaining waiters are removed from the wait queue of the source
futex at uaddr and added to the wait queue of the target futex at
uaddr2. The val2 argument specifies an upper limit on the number of
waiters that are requeued to the futex at uaddr2.

GCC 7.2 is much stricter than previous GCC versions. The following changes
are needed:
* There is now a warning if there is an implicit fallthrough between two
case statments. C++17 adds the [[fallthrough]]; declaration. However,
to support non C++17 standards (i.e., C++11), we use M5_FALLTHROUGH.
M5_FALLTHROUGH checks for [[fallthrough]] compliant C++17 compiler and
if that doesn't exist, it defaults to nothing (no older compilers
generate warnings).
* The above resulted in a couple of bugs that were found. This is noted
in the review request on gerrit.
* throw() for dynamic exception specification is deprecated
* There were a couple of new uninitialized variable warnings
* Can no longer perform bitwise operations on a bool.

LiveProcess invocation, it makes sense to simplify the organization by

involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward

The openFlagTable and mmapFlagTables for emulated Linux
platforms are basically identical, but are specified
repetitively for every platform. Use a common file
that gets included for each platform so that we only
have one copy, making them more consistent and simplifying
changes (like adding #ifdefs).
In the process, made some minor fixes that slipped through
due to previous inconsistencies, and added more #ifdefs
to try to fix building on alternative hosts.
The mmapGrowsDown() method was a static method on the OperatingSystem
class (and derived classes), which worked OK for the templated syscall
emulation methods, but made it hard to access elsewhere. This patch
moves the method to be a virtual function on the LiveProcess method,
where it can be overridden for specific platforms (for now, Alpha).
This patch also changes the value of mmapGrowsDown() from being false
by default and true only on X86Linux32 to being true by default and
false only on Alpha, which seems closer to reality (though in reality
most people use ASLR and this doesn't really matter anymore).
In the process, also got rid of the unused mmap_start field on
LiveProcess and OperatingSystem mmapGrowsUp variable.
The structure definition only had the open system call flag set in mind when
it was named, so we rename it here with the intention of using it to define
additional tables to translate flags for other system calls in the future.
This patch moves away from using M5_ATTR_OVERRIDE and the m5::hashmap
(and similar) abstractions, as these are no longer needed with gcc 4.7
and clang 3.1 as minimum compiler versions.
ARM uses UDelayEvents to emulate kernel __*udelay functions and speed up
simulation. UDelayEvents call Pseudoinst::quiesceNs to quiesce the system for
a specified delay. Changeset 10341:0b4d10f53c2d introduced the requirement
that any quiesce process that is started must also be completed by scheduling
an EndQuiesceEvent. This change causes the CPU to hang if an IsQuiesce
instruction is executed, but the corresponding EndQuiesceEvent is not
scheduled.
Changeset 11058:d0934b57735a introduces a fix for uses of PseudoInst::quiesce*
that would conditionally execute the EndQuiesceEvent. ARM UDelayEvents specify
quiesce period of 0 ns (src/arch/arm/linux/system.cc), so changeset 11058
causes these events to now execute full quiesce processes, greatly increasing
the total instructions executed in kernel delay loops and slowing simulation.
This patch updates the UDelayEvent to conditionally execute
PseudoInst::quiesceNs (**a quiesce operation**) only if the specified
delay is >0 ns. The result is ARM delay loops no longer execute instructions
for quiesce handling, and regression time returns to normal.
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

Objects that are can be serialized are supposed to inherit from the
Serializable class. This class is meant to provide a unified API for
such objects. However, so far it has mainly been used by SimObjects
due to some fundamental design limitations. This changeset redesigns
to the serialization interface to make it more generic and hide the
underlying checkpoint storage. Specifically:
* Add a set of APIs to serialize into a subsection of the current
object. Previously, objects that needed this functionality would
use ad-hoc solutions using nameOut() and section name
generation. In the new world, an object that implements the
interface has the methods serializeSection() and
unserializeSection() that serialize into a named /subsection/ of
the current object. Calling serialize() serializes an object into
the current section.
* Move the name() method from Serializable to SimObject as it is no
longer needed for serialization. The fully qualified section name
is generated by the main serialization code on the fly as objects
serialize sub-objects.
* Add a scoped ScopedCheckpointSection helper class. Some objects
need to serialize data structures, that are not deriving from
Serializable, into subsections. Previously, this was done using
nameOut() and manual section name generation. To simplify this,
this changeset introduces a ScopedCheckpointSection() helper
class. When this class is instantiated, it adds a new /subsection/
and subsequent serialization calls during the lifetime of this
helper class happen inside this section (or a subsection in case
of nested sections).
* The serialize() call is now const which prevents accidental state
manipulation during serialization. Objects that rely on modifying
state can use the serializeOld() call instead. The default
implementation simply calls serialize(). Note: The old-style calls
need to be explicitly called using the
serializeOld()/serializeSectionOld() style APIs. These are used by
default when serializing SimObjects.
* Both the input and output checkpoints now use their own named
types. This hides underlying checkpoint implementation from
objects that need checkpointing and makes it easier to change the
underlying checkpoint storage code.
This patch takes a first few steps in transitioning from the ad-hoc
RefCountingPtr to the c++11 shared_ptr. There are no changes in
behaviour, and the code modifications are mainly introducing the
use of make_shared.
Note that the class could use unique_ptr rather than shared_ptr, was
it not for the postfix increment and decrement operators.
This patch prunes unused values, and also unifies how the values are
defined (not using an enum for ALPHA), aligning the use of int vs Addr
etc.
The patch also removes the duplication of PageBytes/PageShift and
VMPageSize/LogVMPageSize. For all ISAs the two pairs had identical
values and the latter has been removed.
This patch makes it possible to once again build gem5 without any
ISA. The main purpose is to enable work around the interconnect and
memory system without having to build any CPU models or device models.
The regress script is updated to include the NULL ISA target. Currently
no regressions make use of it, but all the testers could (and perhaps
should) transition to it.
