The KvmVM will declare itself to the System object, instead of the other
way around. This way the System object can just keep an opaque KvmVM
pointer which does not depend on the KvmVM code even being compiled into
gem5. If there is a KvmVM object, that can more safely assume there is a
corresponding System object to attach itself to.
Also move use of the KvmVM pointer out of constructors, since the VM may
not have registered itself with the System object yet. Those uses can
happen in the init() method instead.

These registers used to be accessed with a two dimensional index, with
one dimension specifying the register, and the second index specifying
the element within that register. This change linearizes that index down
to one dimension, where the elements of each register are laid out one
after the other in sequence.

This file populated the "cxx_config_directory" map from type names to
directory entry generating types. It used a comprehensive list of
includes of all SimObject headers, and a comprehensive list of the
generating types to fill everything in.
Instead, this change creates a new singleton helper class which, when
instantiated as a static member of a CxxConfigParams subclass, will
install a pointer to a CxxConfigDirectoryEntry to that map during global
object construction time.
Also, this change renames the map to cxxConfigDirectory which is in
compliance with the style guide, and puts it behind an accessor which
returns a static variable which is the actual map. This avoids any
problems that might come from global object construction order.

The previous incarnation of this support used faults to make the CPU
reexecute the system call instruction again and again to prevent
emulating/passing through blocking system calls from blocking gem5 as
a whole. That support was accidentally removed a while ago. This new
version suspends the thread context executing the system call, and
periodically wakes it up to retry using a periodically scheduled event.

Rather than make each ISA include boilerplate to ignore a
SyscallReturn's value when it's marked as suppressed or needing a retry,
put that code into the SyscallDesc::doSyscall method instead.
That has two benefits. First, it removes a decent amount of code
duplication which is nice from a maintenance perspective. Second, it
puts the SyscallDesc in charge of figuring out what to do once a system
call implementation finishes. That will let it schedule a retry of the
system call for instance, without worrying about what the ISA is doing
with the SyscallReturn behind its back.

This method depended on all of the EmbeddedPyBind objects having all
been constructed already so that it would have a complete list. This
would only be true if it was called after static intialization was
complete, which is not true if python is ready to go as soon as gem5
(in library form) is loaded.
This change makes EmbeddedPyBind able to defer initialization of a
module more generically than before, so that they can wait for either
another module to be initiailized, or the _m5 package itself.

For most system calls, it doesn't matter if the PC is advanced to the
instruction after the system call instruction before or after the system
call itself is invoked, because the system call itself doesn't interact
with it.
For some system calls however, specifically "clone" and "execve",
advancing the PC *after* the system call complicates things, because it
means the system call needs to set the PC to something that will equal
the desired value only *after* it's advanced.
By setting the PC *before* the system call, the system call can set the
PC to whatever it needs to. This means the new cloned context doesn't
need to advance the PC because it's already advanced, and execve doesn't
need to set NPC, it can leave the PC set to the correct value from the
entry point set during Process initialization.

were really tests of all of gem5 but focus on a particular area. Those
tests have either been converted into real unit tests or eliminated,
and so that mechanism is no longer needed.
This change eliminates that mechanism, and also uses pybind11 to

Previously, the importer module was built into gem5 as a compressed
bytecode blob like all the other code, and it had to be singled out and
installed manually so that it could help bring in all the other modules.
That adds some amount of complexity since it has to be identified and
treated as a special case.
Instead, this change builds it into gem5 using pybind11's
PYBIND11_EMBEDDED_MODULE macro, and a string that gets evaluated into
the new module's __dict__. This means the importer module is
automatically available just by building in that .cc, and it can just be
imported to start using it.
Theoretically all the embedded python could be handled this way, but
that would mean building it into gem5 as raw strings which wouldn't even
be compiled into byte code until run time. That would take more space in
the binary, and also delay catching simple errors.

The workload would have a better idea of what it's endianness is than
the system object that holds it. This is the first step towards getting
rid of the getByteOrder method on the system object, which currently
checks TARGET_ISA to determine what the default endianness should be.
If it makes sense for a Workload, it could determine the endianness
dynamically by, for instance, reading it out of a binary image before
putting it into memory.
This does assume that the workload has a consistent endianness
throughout which may not be true, but this is not a new assumption.
Also, mark the SEWorkload SimObject class as "abstract", since it isn't
useful until they get subclassed by some arch specific version.

This way there will always be a workload object, even if nothing needs
to be set up. This default can also be used in low_power_sweep.py,
where the workload object was just a placeholder.
This will allow required functionality like determining endianness of a
system into the workload, rather than (for instance) in the more generic
System object. This also makes accessing less essential functionality
simpler, because we don't have to detect whether the workload is there,
and can just return default, placeholder values from the StubWorkload.

When calling a method in a superclass, you can/should use the super()
method to get a reference to that class. The python 2 version of that
method takes two parameters, the current class name, and the "self"
instance. The python 3 version takes no arguments. This is better for a
at least three reasons.
First, this version is less verbose because you don't have to specify
any arguments.
Second, you don't have to remember which argument goes where (I always
have to look it up), and you can't accidentally use the wrong class
name, or forget to update it if you copy code from a different class.
Third, this version will work correctly if you use a class decorator.

If the pathname is relative, then it is interpreted relative to the
