Splitting hw_prefetches into prefetch_hits and prefetch_misses so both
events can be tracked separately. Also added appropriate functions to
increment stats. Renamed m_prefetches for consistency.
sw_prefetches is not used and has been removed. The sequencer converts
SW prefetch requests into a RubyRequestType_LD/RubyRequestType_ST
which are handled as demand requests by the all current protocols.

The patch is using the newly defined PARAMS macro to replace
custom params() getters in derived class.
The patch is also removing redundant _params:
Instead of creating yet another _params field, SimObject descendants
should use params() to expose the real type of SimObject::_params they
already have.

A single functionalRead may not be able to get the whole latest
copy of the block in protocols that have features such as:
- a cache line can be partially present and dirty in a controller
- a cache line can be transferred over the network using multiple
protocol-level messages
To support these cases, this patch adds an alternative function:
bool functionalRead(PacketPtr, WriteMask&)
Protocols that implement this function can partially update
the packet and use the WriteMask to mark updated bytes.
The top-level RubySystem:functionalRead then issues functionalRead
to controllers until the whole block is read.
This patch implements functionalRead(PacketPtr, WriteMask&) for all the
common messages and SimpleNetwork. A protocol-specific implementation
will be provided in a future patch.
The new interface is compiled only if required by the protocol (see
src/mem/ruby/system/SConscript). Otherwise the original interface is
used thus maintaining compatibility with previous protocols.

The mismatches were from places where Params structs had been declared
as classes instead of structs, and ruby's MachineID struct.
A comment describing why the warning had been disabled said that it was
because of libstdc++ version 4.8. As far as I can tell, that version is
old enough to be outside the window we support, and so that should no
longer be a problem. It looks like the oldest version of gcc we
support, 5.0, corresponds with approximately libstdc++ version 6.0.21.

The TBEStorage is used to track the resources consumed by the TBETable,
i.e. the number of available TBE slots.
structure(TBEStorage, external ="yes") {
int size();
int capacity();
int reserved();
int slotsAvailable();
bool areNSlotsAvailable(int n);
void incrementReserved();
void decrementReserved();
int addEntryToNewSlot();
void addEntryToSlot(int slot);
void removeEntryFromSlot(int slot);
}
TBEStorage resource tracking has two main differences from TBETable:
1) Allows slot reservation. This is useful to implement protocols that
employ retry/credit messages instead of stall when the controller runs
out of TBEs to accept new request.
2) Can also assign multiple entries to the same slot. This is useful to
more easily model cases where multiple transactions share the same TBE
resource (i.e. the slot).
E.g: a request that triggers a replacement in a system without
dedicated WB/Eviction buffer; both transactions can can have separate
logical TBEs associated to the same slot.
The motivation for having a separate structures for tracking TBEs
availability are twofold:
- Keeps TBETable simple and without the additional overhead for
protocols that do not need these additional features.
- Having two separate transactions sharing the same TBE resource using
the current TBETable would be cumbersome since the TBETable is indexed
by the transaction address.

We currently use the traditional SI-like prefixes for to represent
binary multipliers in some contexts. This is ambiguous in many cases
since they overload the meaning of the SI prefix.
Here are some examples of commonly used in the industry:
* Storage vendors define 1 MB as 10**6 bytes
* Memory vendors define 1 MB as 2**20 bytes
* Network equipment treats 1Mbit/s as 10**6 bits/s
* Memory vendors define 1Mbit as 2**20 bits
In practice, this means that a FLASH chip on a storage bus uses
decimal prefixes, but that same flash chip on a memory bus uses binary
prefixes. It would also be reasonable to assume that the contents of a
1Mbit FLASH chip would take 0.1s to transfer over a 10Mbit Ethernet
link. That's however not the case due to different meanings of the
prefix.
The quantity 2MX is treated differently by gem5 depending on the unit
X:
* Physical quantities (s, Hz, V, A, J, K, C, F) use decimal prefixes.
* Interconnect and NoC bandwidths (B/s) use binary prefixes.
* Network bandwidths (bps) use decimal prefixes.
* Memory sizes and storage sizes (B) use binary prefixes.
Mitigate this ambiguity by consistently using the ISO/IEC/SI prefixes
for binary multipliers for parameters and comments where appropriate.

There is a race condition in VIPER where an atomic issued to the same
address can occur resulting in multiple trigger messages signalling the
compleition of the atomic operation. The first message was deallocating
the TBE causing the second message to dereference a nullptr when looking
up the TBE.
A counter is added to track the number of in flight AtomicDone trigger
messages. The AtomicDone is not called until the last in flight message
arrives at the trigger queue. The remaining messages call AtomicNotDone
which simply pops the message from the queue and keeps the TBE
allocated.

This commit makes move stats from several classes in mem/ruby
to corresponding Stats::Group's.
For ruby's Profiler, additional changes are made: there are stats that
are profiled for each of RequestType, for each of MachineType, and for
each of combinations of RequestType and MachineType. The current naming
scheme is ...<stat_name>.<request_type_name>.<machine_type_name>. To make
it easier for stats parser to know whether the stat is of RequestType, or
is of MachineType, or is of (RequestType, MachineType), a prefix is added
as follows,
...<meta>.<stat_name>.<request_type_name>.<machine_type_name>
where <meta> is one of {RequestType, MachineType, RequestTypeMachineType}.
Another point of using this naming scheme is that the parser doesn't
need to know all of RequestType and MachineType.

Implementation of a generic frequency-based sampling
compressor. The compressor goes through a sampling stage,
where no compression is done, and the values are simply
sampled for their frequencies. Then, after enough samples
have been taken, the compressor starts generating
compressed data.
Compression works by comparing chunks to the table of
most frequent values. In theory, a chunk that is present
in the frequency table has its value replaced by the
index of its respective entry in the table. In practice,
the value itself is stored because there is no straight-
forward way to acquire an index from an entry.
Finally, the index can be encoded so that the values
with highest frequency have smaller codeword representation.
Its Huffman coupling can be used similar to the approach
taken in "SC 2 : A Statistical Compression Cache Scheme".

Input ports can specify a custom handler that is called
on resource stalls. The handler should return 'true' to
indicate the stall was handled and new messages from that
queue can be processed on that cycle. When it returns
'false' or no handler is defined, a resource stall is
generated.
Handlers are defined using the 'rsc_stall_handler' (for
resource stalls) and the 'prot_stall_handler' (for
protocol stalls) parameters. For example:
in_port(mandatory_in, RubyRequest, mandatoryQueue,
rsc_stall_handler=mandatory_in_stall_handler) {
...
}
bool mandatory_in_stall_handler() {
// Do something here to handle the stall !
return true;
// or return false if we don't want to do anything
}
Note: this patch required a change to the generate()
functions interface in the SLICC compiler, so we
could propagate a reference to the in_port to the
appropriate generate() functions. The updated interface
allows passing and forwarding of keyword arguments.

Added functions for connecting the sequencer and cpu ports.
Using these functions instead of wiring up the ports directly allow
protocols to provide specialized sequencer implementations. For
instance, connecting the cpu icache_port and dcache_port to
different sequencer ports or to different sequencers.
A follow-up patch will update the configurations to use these
functions.
