ISA devices typically run in the device event queue. Previously, we
assumed that devices would perform their own EQ migrations as
needed. This isn't ideal since it means we have different conventions
for IO devices and ISA devices. Switch to doing migrations in the KVM
CPU instead to make the behavior consistent.

This change set also updates the Result abstraction to contemplate the

The ARM MiscRegs implementation has two interfaces: 'normal'
and 'no effect'. The latter acts as a way to access the
backing store without architectural 'effects'. For instance,
a normal write to a timer compare value would call into the
timer model to emulate the device. The 'no effect' interface,
however, would just write the value into the register backing
store and do nothing else.
For Kvm execution, a delicate balance must be struck for the
timer device specifically. We need the code in the model
to be run, because it contains state other than the register
backing store that must stay in sync. On the other hand, we
don't necessarily want the timer model to schedule gem5
events when this happens.
In this commit, we ensure that we use the 'effectful'
MiscReg interface when copying the CP15 timer registers
from Kvm back into gem5. The prior commit makes sure
that this doesn't generate unnecessary timer events
or interrupts.

This patch adds a second set of accessors to ThreadInfo to extract

first looking up the task_struct and then calling these new accessors.

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

This also eliminates the error prone vex immediate decode table which was

three byte opcodes. There were differences, but I think those may have

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

Use the PyBind11 wrapping infrastructure instead of SWIG to generate
wrappers for functionality that needs to be exported to Python. This
has several benefits:
* PyBind11 can be redistributed with gem5, which means that we have
full control of the version used. This avoid a large number of
hard-to-debug SWIG issues we have seen in the past.
* PyBind11 doesn't rely on a custom C++ parser, instead it relies on
wrappers being explicitly declared in C++. The leads to slightly
more boiler-plate code in manually created wrappers, but doesn't
doesn't increase the overall code size. A big benefit is that this
avoids strange compilation errors when SWIG doesn't understand
modern language features.
* Unlike SWIG, there is no risk that the wrapper code incorporates
incorrect type casts (this has happened on numerous occasions in
the past) since these will result in compile-time errors.
As a part of this change, the mechanism to define exported methods has
been redesigned slightly. New methods can be exported either by
declaring them in the SimObject declaration and decorating them with
the cxxMethod decorator or by adding an instance of
PyBindMethod/PyBindProperty to the cxx_exports class variable. The
decorator has the added benefit of making it possible to add a
docstring and naming the method's parameters.
The new wrappers have the following known issues:
* Global events can't be memory managed correctly. This was the
case in SWIG as well.

data to wrap around to the beginning of the memory (such as -1 or
0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF), an assert would fail during address translation and
gem5 would crash. This patch fixes that by checking for such a case in
RISC-V's TLB code and returning a fault from translateData if that would
happen. Because RISC-V does support unaligned memory accesses, no
checking is performed to make sure that an access doesn't cross a cache
line.
[Update creation of page table fault to use make_shared.]
[Add comment explaining the change and assertion that the memory request
isn't zero size.]
