ae390c629f arch: Make a base class for Interrupts.
That abstracts the ISA further from the CPU, getting us a small step

3b58400b27 x86: De-x86ify the IntMasterPort.
The devices which host an IntMasterPort are very specific to x86 at the
moment, but the ports don't have to be. This change moves
responsibilities around so that the x86 specific aspects are handled
in the device, and the ports themselves are ISA agnostic.

6ad5f1516e x86: Simplify and consolidate the code that assembles an MSI on x86.
There is no interrupt response message, and so no need for a function
which would construct one. The other functions which construct the
request can be consolidated since the work being done by each is
incremental. The template parameters can be used to support multiple
types and offsets in a single function, and since that function also
doesn't have to do much work, it makes sense to do everything in one
shot.

f89f85d255 x86: Switch from MessageReq and Resp to WriteReq and Resp.
Originally MessageReq was intended to mark a packet as a holding a
message destined for a particular recipient and which would not
interact with other packets.

This is similar to the way a WriteReq would behave if writing to a
device register which needs to be updated atomically. Also, while the
memory system *could* recognize a MessageReq and know that it didn't
need to interact with other packets, that was never implemented.

5c41076bd7 misc: Updates for gcc7.2 for x86
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.
* Must now include <functional> for std::function
* Compiler bug for void* lambda. Changed to auto as work around. See
  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82878

78275c9d2f dev: Rewrite PCI host functionality
The gem5's current PCI host functionality is very ad hoc. The current
implementations require PCI devices to be hooked up to the
configuration space via a separate configuration port. Devices query
the platform to get their config-space address range. Un-mapped parts
of the config space are intercepted using the XBar's default port
mechanism and a magic catch-all device (PciConfigAll).

This changeset redesigns the PCI host functionality to improve code
reuse and make config-space and interrupt mapping more
transparent. Existing platform code has been updated to use the new
PCI host and configured to stay backwards compatible (i.e., no
guest-side visible changes). The current implementation does not
expose any new functionality, but it can easily be extended with
features such as automatic interrupt mapping.

PCI devices now register themselves with a PCI host controller. The
host controller interface is defined in the abstract base class
PciHost. Registration is done by PciHost::registerDevice() which takes
the device, its bus position (bus/dev/func tuple), and its interrupt
pin (INTA-INTC) as a parameter. The registration interface returns a
PciHost::DeviceInterface that the PCI device can use to query memory
mappings and signal interrupts.

The host device manages the entire PCI configuration space. Accesses
to devices decoded into the devices bus position and then forwarded to
the correct device.

Basic PCI host functionality is implemented in the GenericPciHost base
class. Most platforms can use this class as a basic PCI controller. It
provides the following functionality:

  * Configurable configuration space decoding. The number of bits
    dedicated to a device is a prameter, making it possible to support
    both CAM, ECAM, and legacy mappings.

  * Basic interrupt mapping using the interruptLine value from a
    device's configuration space. This behavior is the same as in the
    old implementation. More advanced controllers can override the
    interrupt mapping method to dynamically assign host interrupts to
    PCI devices.

  * Simple (base + addr) remapping from the PCI bus's address space to
    physical addresses for PIO, memory, and DMA.

76cd4393c0 sim: Refactor the serialization base class
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.

268d9e59c5 mem: Clarification of packet crossbar timings
This patch clarifies the packet timings annotated
when going through a crossbar.

The old 'firstWordDelay' is replaced by 'headerDelay' that represents
the delay associated to the delivery of the header of the packet.

The old 'lastWordDelay' is replaced by 'payloadDelay' that represents
the delay needed to processing the payload of the packet.

For now the uses and values remain identical. However, going forward
the payloadDelay will be additive, and not include the
headerDelay. Follow-on patches will make the headerDelay capture the
pipeline latency incurred in the crossbar, whereas the payloadDelay
will capture the additional serialisation delay.

As part of this renaming, the code has also been clean up slightly,
making use of range-based for loops and tidying up some comments. The
only changes outside the bus/crossbar code is due to the delay
variables in the packet.

346fe73370 dev: seperate legacy io offsets from PCI offset
The PC platform has a single IO range that is used both legacy IO and PCI IO
while other platforms may use seperate regions. Provide another mechanism to
configure the legacy IO base address range and set it to the PCI IO address
range for x86.

c99b13d904 x86: make PioBus return BadAddress errors
Stop setting the use_default_range flag in PioBus in order to
have random bad addresses result in a BadAddress response and
not a gem5 fatal error.  This is necessary in Ruby as Ruby is
connected directly to PioBus, so misspeculated addresses will
be sent there directly.  For the classic memory system, this
change has no effect, as bad addresses are caught by the
memory bus before being sent to the PioBus.

This work was done while Binh was an intern at AMD Research.

de366a16f1 sim: simulate with multiple threads and event queues
This patch adds support for simulating with multiple threads, each of
which operates on an event queue.  Each sim object specifies which eventq
is would like to be on.  A custom barrier implementation is being added
using which eventqs synchronize.

The patch was tested in two different configurations:
1. ruby_network_test.py: in this simulation L1 cache controllers receive
   requests from the cpu. The requests are replied to immediately without
   any communication taking place with any other level.
2. twosys-tsunami-simple-atomic: this configuration simulates a client-server
   system which are connected by an ethernet link.

We still lack the ability to communicate using message buffers or ports. But
other things like simulation start and end, synchronizing after every quantum
are working.

1f43e244bd dev: make BasicPioDevice take size in constructor
Instead of relying on derived classes explicitly assigning
to the BasicPioDevice pioSize field, require them to pass
a size value in to the constructor.

502ad1e675 dev: consistently end device classes in 'Device'
PciDev and IntDev stuck out as the only device classes that
ended in 'Dev' rather than 'Device'.  This patch takes care
of that inconsistency.

Note that you may need to delete pre-existing files matching
build/*/python/m5/internal/param_* as scons does not pick up
indirect dependencies on imported python modules when generating
params, and the PciDev -> PciDevice rename takes place in a
file (dev/Device.py) that gets imported quite a bit.

b0b1c0205c devices: make more classes derive from BasicPioDevice
A couple of devices that have single fixed memory mapped regions
were not derived from BasicPioDevice, when that's exactly
the functionality that BasicPioDevice provides.  This patch
gets rid of a little bit of redundant code by making those
devices actually do so.

Also fixed the weird case of X86ISA::Interrupts, where
the class already did derive from BasicPioDevice but
didn't actually use all the features it could have.

d2fd3b2ec2 x86: changes to apic, keyboard
It is possible that operating system wants to shutdown the
lapic timer by writing timer's initial count to 0. This patch
adds a check that the timer event is only scheduled if the
count is 0.

The patch also converts few of the panics related to the keyboard
to warnings since we are any way not interested in simulating the
keyboard.

a62afd094b scons: Fix warnings issued by clang 3.2svn (XCode 4.6)
This patch fixes the warnings that clang3.2svn emit due to the "-Wall"
flag. There is one case of an uninitialised value in the ARM neon ISA
description, and then a whole range of unused private fields that are
pruned.

860155a5fc mem: Enforce strict use of busFirst- and busLastWordTime
This patch adds a check to ensure that the delay incurred by
the bus is not simply disregarded, but accounted for by someone. At
this point, all the modules do is to zero it out, and no additional
time is spent. This highlights where the bus timing is simply dropped
instead of being paid for.

As a follow up, the locations identified in this patch should add this
additional time to the packets in one way or another. For now it
simply acts as a sanity check and highlights where the delay is simply
ignored.

Since no time is added, all regressions remain the same.

b904bd5437 sim: Add a system-global option to bypass caches
Virtualized CPUs and the fastmem mode of the atomic CPU require direct
access to physical memory. We currently require caches to be disabled
when using them to prevent chaos. This is not ideal when switching
between hardware virutalized CPUs and other CPU models as it would
require a configuration change on each switch. This changeset
introduces a new version of the atomic memory mode,
'atomic_noncaching', where memory accesses are inserted into the
memory system as atomic accesses, but bypass caches.

To make memory mode tests cleaner, the following methods are added to
the System class:

 * isAtomicMode() -- True if the memory mode is 'atomic' or 'direct'.
 * isTimingMode() -- True if the memory mode is 'timing'.
 * bypassCaches() -- True if caches should be bypassed.

The old getMemoryMode() and setMemoryMode() methods should never be
used from the C++ world anymore.

c0ab52799c sim: Include object header files in SWIG interfaces
When casting objects in the generated SWIG interfaces, SWIG uses
classical C-style casts ( (Foo *)bar; ). In some cases, this can
degenerate into the equivalent of a reinterpret_cast (mainly if only a
forward declaration of the type is available). This usually works for
most compilers, but it is known to break if multiple inheritance is
used anywhere in the object hierarchy.

This patch introduces the cxx_header attribute to Python SimObject
definitions, which should be used to specify a header to include in
the SWIG interface. The header should include the declaration of the
wrapped object. We currently don't enforce header the use of the
header attribute, but a warning will be generated for objects that do
not use it.

2a740aa096 Port: Add protocol-agnostic ports in the port hierarchy
This patch adds an additional level of ports in the inheritance
hierarchy, separating out the protocol-specific and protocl-agnostic
parts. All the functionality related to the binding of ports is now
confined to use BaseMaster/BaseSlavePorts, and all the
protocol-specific parts stay in the Master/SlavePort. In the future it
will be possible to add other protocol-specific implementations.

The functions used in the binding of ports, i.e. getMaster/SlavePort
now use the base classes, and the index parameter is updated to use
the PortID typedef with the symbolic InvalidPortID as the default.
