Previously, with HSAIL, we were guaranteed by the HSA specification
that the GPU will never issue unaligned accesses. However, now
that we are directly running GCN this is no longer true.
Accordingly, this commit adds support for unaligned accesses.
Moreover, to reduce the replication of nearly identical
code for the different request types, I also added new helper
functions that are called by all the different memory request
producing instruction types in op_encodings.hh.
Adding support for unaligned instructions requires changing
the statusBitVector used to track the status of the memory
requests for each lane from a bit per lane to an int per lane.
This is necessary because an unaligned access may span multiple
cache lines. In the worst case, each lane may span multiple
cache lines. There are corresponding changes in the files that
use the statusBitVector.

Remove the read/write tables and coalescing table and introduce a two
levels of tables for uncoalesced and coalesced packets. Tokens are
granted to GPU instructions to place in uncoalesced table. If tokens
are available, the operation always succeeds such that the 'Aliased'
status is never returned. Coalesced accesses are placed in the
coalesced table while requests are outstanding. Requests to the same
address are added as targets to the table similar to how MSHRs
operate.

Switch over to the new MemState API by specifying memory regions for
stack in each ISA, changing brkFunc to use MemState for heap memory,
and calling the MemState fixup in fixupStackFault (renamed to just
fixupFault).

MemObject doesn't provide anything beyond its base ClockedObject any
more, so this change removes it from most inheritance hierarchies.
Occasionally MemObject is replaced with SimObject when I was fairly
confident that the extra functionality of ClockedObject wasn't needed.

This sets the members of a Request object to the values they
already hold, except the atomicOpFunctor which is set to
nullptr. This call introduces a bug for atomics and is not
useful for non-atomic requests. This changeset is also
adding the wave PC and instruction sequence number to the
Request object.

This patch is changing the underlying type for RequestPtr from Request*
to shared_ptr<Request>. Having memory requests being managed by smart
pointers will simplify the code; it will also prevent memory leakage and
dangling pointers.

GpuTlbEntry was derived from a vanilla X86ISA::TlbEntry definition. It
wrapped the class and included an extra member "valid". This member was
intended to report on the validity of the entry, however it introduced
bugs when folks forgot to set field properly in the code. So, instead of
keeping the extra field which we might forget to set, we track validity by
using nullptr for invalid tlb entries (as the tlb entries are dynamically
allocated). This saves on the extra class definition and prevents bugs
creeping into the code since the checks are intrinsically tied into
accessing any of the X86ISA::TlbEntry members.
This changeset fixes the issues introduced by a8d030522, a4e722725, and
2a15bfd79.

With this patch a gem5 System will store more info about its Masters.
While it was previously keeping track of the Master name and Master ID
only, it is now adding a per-Master pointer to the SimObject related to
the Master.
This will make it possible for a client to query a System for a Master
using either the master's name or the master's pointer.

this patch adds an ordered response buffer to the GM pipeline
to ensure in-order data delivery. the buffer is implemented as
a stl ordered map, which sorts the request in program order by
using their sequence ID. when requests return to the GM pipeline
they are marked as done. only the oldest request may be serviced
from the ordered buffer, and only if is marked as done.
the FIFO response buffers are kept and used in OoO delivery mode
this patch removes the GPUStaticInst enums that were defined in GPU.py.
instead, a simple set of attribute flags that can be set in the base
instruction class are used. this will help unify the attributes of HSAIL
and machine ISA instructions within the model itself.
because the static instrution now carries the attributes, a GPUDynInst
must carry a pointer to a valid GPUStaticInst so a new static kernel launch
instruction is added, which carries the attributes needed to perform a
the kernel launch.
This patch adds a method to the Wavefront class to compute the actual workgroup
size. This can be different from the maximum workgroup size specified when
launching the kernel through the NDRange object. Current solution is still not
optimal, as we are computing these for each wavefront and the dispatcher also
needs to have this information and can't actually call
Wavefront::computeActuallWgSz before the wavefronts are being created. A long
term solution would be to have a Workgroup class that deals with all these
details.
WFContext struct is currently unused and it has been rendered not useful in
saving and restoring the context of a Wavefront. Wavefront class should be
sufficient for that purpose and the runtime can figure out the memory size
it will need to allocate for a Wavefront through an IOCTL.
Eliminate the VSZ constant that defined the Wavefront size (in numbers of work
items); replaced it with a parameter in the GPU.py configuration script.
Changed all data structures dependent on the Wavefront size to be dynamically
sized. Legal values of Wavefront size are 16, 32, 64 for now and checked at
initialization time.
Fixing an issue with regStats not calling the parent class method
for most SimObjects in Gem5. This causes issues if one adds new
stats in the base class (since they are never initialized properly!).

In general, the ThreadID parameter is unnecessary in the memory system
as the ContextID is what is used for the purposes of locks/wakeups.
Since we allocate sequential ContextIDs for each thread on MT-enabled
CPUs, ThreadID is unnecessary as the CPUs can identify the requesting
thread through sideband info (SenderState / LSQ entries) or ContextID
offset from the base ContextID for a cpu.
This is a re-spin of 20264eb after the revert (bd1c6789) and includes
some fixes of that commit.
Both Memory Fence is now flagged as Global Memory only to avoid resource
oversubscribing.
Flat instructions now check for Shared Memory resource busy to avoid
oversubscribing resources.
All WaitClass resources now use cycles (not ticks) to register the number
of pipe stages between Scoreboard and Execute to be consistent with
instruction scheduling logic which always used clock cycles.
