This resource has been deprecated in favor of 'x86-ubuntu-18.04-img'. In
practise, these are the same resource (i.e., the same disk image), but
we deprecate 'x86-ubuntu-img' as 'x86-ubuntu-18.04-img' is more explicit
on what the disk image contains. Going forward we may want different
disk image resources with different Ubuntu versions, and we want it to
be clear what the user is retrieving.

The SPEC2006 and SPEC2017 example configs require the passing of SPEC
disk image to function correctly. Prior to this commit a root partition
parameter was required. However, disk images don't necessarily have
partitions. In this case an empty string needed passed.
This patch makes the root partition parameter optional. If a disk image
does not have a root partition, it does not need specified.

It allows the user to specify the disk root partition parameter

This change removes the code base for SingleChannelMemory and
replaces it with MultiChannelMemory. muli_channel defines all
the classes that were defined by single_channel. Basically any
SingleChannelMemory could be thought of as a MultiChannelMemory
with 1 channel.

Enable a gem5 system to be an SST::Component.
This change includes,
- SST::gem5Component: responsible for,
- initializing the Python environment for gem5
- instantiating gem5 SimObjects
- connecting SST::SSTResponderSubComponent to
gem5::OutgoingRequestBridge
- hanlding the gem5 event queue (no thread-synchronization)
- handling executing gem5 events
- SST::SSTResponderSubComponent: responsible for,
- receiving gem5 requests and sending the requests to
memory.
- sending responses to the corresponding
gem5::OutgoingRequestBridge.
- SST::SSTResponder: owned by SSTResponderSubComponent, the
actual actor that sends gem5's requests to memory.
- gem5::OutgoingRequestBridge: receives the requests from
gem5 and sends them to SST. This SimObject allows the initialization
requests to be cached and the receiver could query the
initialization data later on.
- gem5::SSTResponderInterface: the interface specifying how SST
communicates with gem5.
- A working example of a gem5/SST setup.
More information is available at ext/sst/README.md.
For installation instructions, please refer to ext/sst/INSTALL.md.

This way there will always be a workload object, even if nothing needs
to be set up. This default can also be used in low_power_sweep.py,
where the workload object was just a placeholder.
This will allow required functionality like determining endianness of a
system into the workload, rather than (for instance) in the more generic
System object. This also makes accessing less essential functionality
simpler, because we don't have to detect whether the workload is there,
and can just return default, placeholder values from the StubWorkload.

In order to fix several regression failures [1] the master/slave
terminology in src/cpu/BaseCPU.py was reintroduced [2].
This patch is addressing the issue by providing 2 different
ways of connecting cpu ports:
*) connectBus: The method assumes an object with a bus interface is
passed as an argument, therefore it tries to bind cpu ports to the
bus.mem_side_ports and bus.cpu_side_ports
*) connectAllPorts: No assumption on the port owning device is made.
The method simply accepts ports as arguments which will be directly
connected to the peer cpu ports
This will be used for example by ruby Sequencers

This is clearer on its purpose and doesn't overlap with other

This patch moves 'connect_things' to the AbstractBoard constructor,
thereby meaning it does not need to be called directly in gem5
configuration scripts. This method has been changed to private as a
result.
As boards that inherit from AbstractBoard require certain things to be
setup prior to `connect_things` being called, a new abstract function,
`_setup_board` has been created. This is called in the AbstractBoard
constructor before `connect_things` and can be overridden by boards to
setup board properties as required.

The override parameter in the constructor has been renamed to to
'download_md5_mismatch'. This makes the purpose of this parameter
clearer.
The default value has been changed from False to True. We found in most
cases we want to re-download files if the md5 values have changes. Not
wanting to do so is the corner case. This allows us to remove a lot of
parameters from test and example scripts, included in this patch.

* Cleans up the manner in which readfile values/contents are set.
* Allows a user to specify their own kernel arguments, but still sets
sensible defaults.
As of this commit, this interface has been added to the X86Board and the
RISCVBoard.

In order to have more fine grained control over which SLICC controllers
are part of which Ruby network in a disjoint configuration, the
create_system function in GPU_VIPER is broken up into multiple construct
calls for each SLICC machine type in the protocol. By default this does
not change anything functionally. A future config will use the construct
calls to explicitly set which network (CPU or GPU) the controller is in.

This device and the file it's in have the same name as one already
defined by arm. This is basically ok when those are mutually exclusive,
but can't coexist when both ISAs can be included at the same time. This
is because the file name would put them both under
m5.objects.VirtIOMMIO, and the name of the object itself would conflict
when importing * from m5.objects.

The 'components_library' name was always a placeholder. A more accurate
name would be the 'gem5 library'. This is analogous to standard
libraries shipped as part of programming languages. Over time this will
begin to incorporate more commonly used code at the Python configuration
script level. Most of the former 'components_library' is now in
'gem5.components'.

There has been some debate on how best to distribute the components
library. This change builds the components library into the gem5 binary.
The components library will now function similar to the `m5` library.
There is no need for awkward imports or obtaining the library from some
third-party source.
Additional incorporated in this patch:
* Added `__init__.py` to the Python modules.
* Fixed a typo in the `abstract_ruby_cache_hierarchy.py` filename.
* Ensured that imports within the library are relative.

though they are now used purely for testing purposes and have therefore
