and also make it protected on x86 to remove confusion.

now it can be retrieved with just an InstDecoder pointer without a

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.

213c9186de arch,cpu: Make the decoder width a property of the decoder.
In this context, the decoder width is the number of bytes that are fed
into the decoder at once. This is frequently the same as the size of an
instruction, but in instructions with occasionally variable instruction
sizes (ARM, RISCV), or extremely variable instruction sizes (x86) there
may be no relation.

Rather than determining the amount of data to feed to the decoder based
on a MachInst type defined by each ISA, this new interface adds some new
properties to the base InstDecoder class each arch specific decoder
inherits from. These are the size of the incoming buffer, a pointer to
wherever that data should end up, and a mask for masking a PC value so
it aligns with the instruction size.

These values are filled in by a templated InstDecoder constructor which
is templated based on what would have historically been the MachInst
type.

Because the "moreBytes" method would historically accept a parameter of
type MachInst, this parameter has also been eliminated. Now, the
decoder's parent object should use the pointer and size values to fill
in the buffer moreBytes reads. Then when moreBytes is called, it just
uses the buffer without having to show what its type is externally.

structural existence of a microcode ROM doesn't make sense in the

and access the ROM that way.

7159ea6698 x86: Rework how VEX prefixes are decoded.
Remove redundant information from the ExtMachInst, hash the vex
information to ensure the decode cache works properly, print the vex info
when printing an ExtMachInst, consider the vex info when comparing two
ExtMachInsts, fold the info from the vex prefixes into existing settings,
remove redundant decode code, handle vex prefixes one byte at a time and
don't bother building up the entire prefix, and let instructions that care
about vex use it in their implementation, instead of developing an entire
parallel decode tree.

This also eliminates the error prone vex immediate decode table which was
incomplete and would result in an out of bounds access for incorrectly
encoded instructions or when the CPU was mispeculating, as it was (as far
as I can tell) redundant with the tables that already existed for two and
three byte opcodes. There were differences, but I think those may have
been mistakes based on the documentation I found.

Also, in 32 bit mode, the VEX prefixes might actually be LDS or LES
instructions which are still legal in that mode. A valid VEX prefix would
look like an LDS/LES with an otherwise invalid modrm encoding, so use that
as a signal to abort processing the VEX and turn the instruction into an
LES/LDS as appropriate.

d3d159749a isa: Add parameter to pick different decoder inside ISA
The decoder is responsible for splitting instructions in micro
operations (uops). Given that different micro architectures may split
operations differently, this patch allows to specify which micro
architecture each isa implements, so different cores in the system can
split instructions differently, also decoupling uop splitting
(microArch) from ISA (Arch). This is done making the decodification
calls templates that receive a type 'DecoderFlavour' that maps the
name of the operation to the class that implements it. This way there
is only one selection point (converting the command line enum to the
appropriate DecodeFeatures object). In addition, there is no explicit
code replication: template instantiation hides that, and the compiler
should be able to resolve a number of things at compile-time.

22aaa5867f x86: Rework opcode parsing to support 3 byte opcodes properly.
Instead of counting the number of opcode bytes in an instruction and recording
each byte before the actual opcode, we can represent the path we took to get to
the actual opcode byte by using a type code. That has a couple of advantages.
First, we can disambiguate the properties of opcodes of the same length which
have different properties. Second, it reduces the amount of data stored in an
ExtMachInst, making them slightly easier/faster to create and process. This
also adds some flexibility as far as how different types of opcodes are
handled, which might come in handy if we decide to support VEX or XOP
instructions.

This change also adds tables to support properly decoding 3 byte opcodes.
Before we would fall off the end of some arrays, on top of the ambiguity
described above.

This change doesn't measureably affect performance on the twolf benchmark.
