This patch is updating the arm regression configs so that the newer
VExpress_GEM5_Foundation platform is used instead VExpress_GEM5_V1
for running regressions.
The platform has the same memory map as V1, except for a different
position of PCI regions in the memory map and more importantly
the use of GICv3 instead of GICv2

This is fixing switcheroo tests when using a PMU/GICv3. When you switch
cpus you usually instantiate multiple cpus at the beginning and you
switch them at runtime with the m5.switchCpus function.
Every cpu will have its own set of ThreadContexts/ISAs.
When you switch cpu/tc/isa, you need to update the tc/isa pointer
cached in the device model otherwise those will still reference
the switched out cpu.

This forces a test in the gcc Makefile to pick the right answer, where
its own check will not. Without this fix, installing libsanitizer fails
to build while installing the c++ headers because it can't find a
definition for PATH_MAX. Disabling building libsanitizer seems to work
around the problem, but other problems crop up later when using the
cross compiler, specifically when trying to build the googletest
library.
The chrome authors apparently ran into a similar problem when building
the native client tool chain as described in this bug:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/nativeclient/issues/detail?id=3190
The CL which fixed the issue is here:
https://codereview.chromium.org/11462002/patch/1/2.
With a similar fix applied to build_cross_gcc.py, the cross compilers
build without issue, and are then able to build the googletest library
without issue.

The revamp of the GenericTimer was not taking into account:
* The name of the variable will be printed on the checkpoint to label the
data. It is not possible to use different variable names when
serializing/unserializing, and it is not possible to use the same
temporary variable to serialize/unserialize different values.
* the serializeSection is creating a new sub section in the
checkpoint. Doing the following:
void
GenericTimerFrame::serialize(CheckpointOut &cp) const
{
physTimer.serializeSection(cp, "phys_timer");
virtTimer.serializeSection(cp, "virt_timer");
SERIALIZE_SCALAR(accessBits);
}
will serialize the accessBits under the virt_timer subsection
rather than the parent generic_timer_frame.

These are currently specific to aarch64, but will be expanded to cover
all other versions of the utility as well.
The intention of these new files is to centralize the build mechanism
for the different versions of the utility so that they have consistent
features, mechanisms, and targets, and so that new features will
automatically be shared by all versions without having to be implemented
in each.
This also sets up a separate build directory which will keep the source
tree clean, and will (with some more development) make it possible to
build multiple versions of the m5 utility at the same time without them
running into each other.

This fixes rare race conditions where a timing page walk is

This change includes:
1) Verify available command bandwidth
2) Add support for multi-cycle commands
3) Add new timing parameters
4) Add ability to interleave bursts
5) Add LPDDR5 configurations
The DRAM controller historically does not verify contention on the
command bus and if there is adaquate command bandwidth to issue a
new command. As memory technologies evolve, multiple cycles are becoming
a requirement for some commands. Depending on the burst length, this
can stress the command bandwidth. A check was added to verify command
issue does not exceed a maximum value within a defined window. The
default window is a burst, with the maximum value defined based on the
burst length and media clocking characteristics. When the command bandwidth
is exceeded, commands will be shifted to subsequent burst windows.
Added support for multi-cycle commands, specifically Activate, which
requires a larger address width as capacities grow. Additionally,
added support for multi-cycle Read / Write bursts for low power
DRAM cases in which additional CLK synchronization may be required
to run at higher speeds.
To support emerging memories, added the following new timing parameters.
1) tPPD -- Precharge-to-Precharge delay
2) tAAD -- Max delay between Activate-1 and Activate-2 commands
I/O data rates are continuing to increase for DRAM but the core frequency
is still fairly stagnant for many technologies. As we increase the burst
length, either the core prefetch needs to increase (for a seamless burst)
or the burst will be transferred with gaps on the data bus. To support
the latter case, added the ability to interleave 2 bursts across bank
groups.
Using the changes above, added an initial set of LPDDR5 configurations.

Armv8-A Foundation Platform - User Guide - Version 11.8
The VExpress_GEM5_V1/V2 are already loosely based on the Foundation
platform, however there are some differences in the PCI regions (V1/V2)

We hence introduce the VExpress_GEM5_Foundation to match closely the

Calls to queueMemoryRead and queueMemoryWrite do not consider the size
of the queue between ruby directories and DRAMCtrl which causes infinite
buffering in the queued port between the two. This adds a MessageBuffer
in between which uses enqueues in SLICC and is therefore size checked
before any SLICC transaction pushing to the buffer can occur, removing
the infinite buffering between the two.

The DictImporter's __del__ method calls unload, and that imports
sys.modules so that it can remove the modules that the DictImporter had
set up as the importer goes away.
Unfortunately, the importer only goes away when python is shutting down,
and at that time some aspects of the system, namely sys.meta_path, have
been cleaned up. When unload tries to import sys, that causes an
exception which scons/python reports but which doesn't do anything bad
otherwise.
In all of the examples of this older style of import object online, none
had a __del__ method, and none worried about cleaning up sys.modules
when they went away. In light of that, I've removed the __del__ method
entirely.
Another reason I think it's safe to remove __del__ is that the importer
was not actually being deleted even when it was removed from
sys.meta_path, and all the modules it had loaded where removed from
sys.modules. I think that was because the SimObject classes that it had
set up still had references (they are used later in the SConscript), and
those would, either directly or indirectly, refer back to the modules
and the importer. Those remaining references kept the importer alive,
preventing __del__ from being called before all those other objects were
cleaned up.
I think in python 2, the order things were cleaned up just so happened
to avoid trying to import sys when it was no longer possible, but in
python 3 that changed and resulted in this exception being thrown.
I've tried building gem5 with scons running under python 2 and python 3,
and with this change there is no error at shutdown. Both also produce a
gem5 binary which can run hello world without problems.

The bug(s) which prevented LTO and partial linking from working with gcc
have been fixed in my local version (9.3), and according to one of the
original bug reports:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69866
A fix was committed in gcc version 8.1.
The original code left in the SConstruct describing the problem with
versions greated than 6.0 also enabled an -flinker-output option and set
it to "rel". That option doesn't show up in the gcc 8.4 documentation
even though it was added in 6.0, but in the 9.3 documentation it
describes it and says that it defaults to "rel" when the -r (partial
linking) option is used.
This *should* mean that LTO and partial linking can be used together
with no issues after version 8.1, and at most by version 9.3. If someone
finds that that isn't true, then the range of bad versions can be
expanded.

This is in the range of call numbers set aside for extensions. When
called, it will extract the function to use from the first argument
slot. Then it calls the pseudoInst dispatching function using an ABI
which drops the return value (which is handled by semihosting itself)
and which extracts arguments from the remaining slots in the param
structure.
This makes gem5 pseudo ops available on CPU models which support
semihosting but not instruction based or address based "magic"
operations, aka hypercalls. This includes the fast model CPUs.
