This patch fixes the buggy special path comparisons in
src/kern/linux/linux.cc Linux::openSpecialFile(), which only checked
for equality of path prefixes, but not equality of the paths
themselves. This patch replaces those buggy comparisons with
regular std::string::operator== string equality comparisons.

The Linux Kernel's printk mechanism and data structures were
overhauled in v5.10. This patch updates gem5's facility to dump the
kernel Dmesg buffer on kernel panic to account for these changes.
The new mechanism splits the Demsg ringbuffer into three separate
ringbuffers, one containing the message data, one containing
descriptors used for lock-free synchronisation, and one containing the
message infos. For a detailed description please see the header of
`kernel/printk/printk_ringbuffer.c` in the Linux source code.
The new gem5 implementation tests for the correct version to
run (pre-v5.10 or post-v5.10) by testing for the presence of symbols
in the kernel. The new, post-v5.10 dump code is templated on types
compatible with the kernel's atomic_long_t to account for differences
between the 64-bit and 32-bit Linux kernels.
Because the new Dmesg buffer dump code in gem5 is intended for
disaster recovery, it intentionally prints the full Dmesg buffer with
minimal checking of the validity of the messages. Partially finished
and/or uncommitted messages will be printed along with the finalised
messages.

The proxies are not used on the critical path, and it's usually implicit
whether they should be the FS or SE version.
Ideally in the future we won't need to worry about which version we need
to use, but the differences haven't quite been abstracted away, and
occasionally we need to decide between the two.

In C, to refer to a type without a struct or enum tag on the type, you
need to typedef it like this:
typedef struct

In C++, this is unnecessary:

Apply the gem5 namespace to the codebase.
Some anonymous namespaces could theoretically be removed,
but since this change's main goal was to keep conflicts
at a minimum, it was decided not to modify much the
general shape of the files.
A few missing comments of the form "// namespace X" that
occurred before the newly added "} // namespace gem5"
have been added for consistency.
std out should not be included in the gem5 namespace, so
they weren't.
ProtoMessage has not been included in the gem5 namespace,
since I'm not familiar with how proto works.
Regarding the SystemC files, although they belong to gem5,
they actually perform integration between gem5 and SystemC;
therefore, it deserved its own separate namespace.
Files that are automatically generated have been included
in the gem5 namespace.
The .isa files currently are limited to a single namespace.
This limitation should be later removed to make it easier
to accomodate a better API.
Regarding the files in util, gem5:: was prepended where
suitable. Notice that this patch was tested as much as
possible given that most of these were already not
previously compiling.

As part of recent decisions regarding namespace
naming conventions, all namespaces will be changed
to snake case.
sim_clock::Int became sim_clock::as_int.
"as_int" was chosen because "int" is a reserved
keyword, and this namespace acts as a selector of
how to read the internal variables.
Another possibility to resolve this would be to
remove the namespaces "Float" and "Int" and use
unions instead.

These were not caught by the previous patches because
the grep used ignored:
- anonymous structures
(e.g., "struct {")
- opening braces without leading spaces
(e.g., "struct Name{"),
- weird chars in auto-generation files
(e.g., "struct $name {").
- extra characters after the opening brace.
(e.g., "struct Name { // Comment")
- typedefs (note that this is not caught by the verifier)
(e.g., "typedef struct Name {")
Most of this has been fixed be grepping structures
with the following regex:
grep -nrE --exclude-dir=systemc \
"^ *(typedef)* *(struct|class|enum|union) [^{]*{$" src/
The following makes sure that "struct{" is captured:
grep -nrE --exclude-dir=systemc \
"^ *(struct|class|enum|union){" src/
To find cases that contain a comment after the
opening brace:
grep -nrE --exclude-dir=systemc \
"^ *(struct|class|enum|union)[^{]*{\s*//" src/

This change replaces the __attribute__ syntax with the now standard [[]]
syntax. It also reorganizes compiler.hh so that all special macros have
some explanatory text saying what they do, and each attribute which has a
standard version can use that if available and what version of c++ it's
standard in is put in a comment.
Also, the requirements as far as where you put [[]] style attributes are
a little more strict than the old school __attribute__ style. The use of
the attribute macros was updated to fit these new, more strict
requirements.

isa_traits.hh used to have much more in it, but now it only has
PageShift, PageBytes, and (for now) the guest endianness. These values
should only be retrieved from the System class generally speaking, so
only the system class should include arch/isa_traits.hh.
Some gpu compute related files need PageBytes or PageShift. Even though
those files don't advertise their ISA dependence, they are tied to x86.
In those files, they can include arch/x86/isa_traits.hh.
The only other file which legitimately needs arch/isa_traits.hh is the
decoder cache since it uses PageBytes to size an array.

These are the stats in the base class, not in any derived classes. Only
Alpha has an additional stats. These were not really "kernel"
statistics, they were just applicable primarily in FS. They are
potentially applicable to any simulation, but will probably not be
incremented in SE simulations.
Also this merges these stats from being per thread to being per
workload, ie operating system instance. This is probably more relevant
since exactly what thread within a workload runs which particular
instruction is not very important/predictable, but the aggregate
behavior is. If necessary, this could be adjusted in the future to
split things back out again into stats per thread while keeping them
inside the single workload object.

The System class has a few different arrays of values which each
correspond to a thread of execution based on their position. This
change collects them together into a single class to make managing them
easier and less error prone. It also collects methods for manipulating
those threads as an API for that class.
This class acts as a collection point for thread based state which the
System class can look into to get at all its state. It also acts as an
interface for interacting with threads for other classes. This forces
external consumers to use the API instead of accessing the individual
arrays which improves consistency.

Instead of calling into object files after the fact and asking them to
put symbols into a target symbol table, this change makes object files
fill in a symbol table themselves at construction. Then, that table can
be retrieved and used to fill in aggregate tables, masked, moved,
and/or filtered to have only one type of symbol binding.
This simplifies the symbol management API of the object file types
significantly, and makes it easier to deal with symbol tables alongside
binaries in the FS workload classes.

The SymbolTable class had been tracking symbols as two independent
pieces, a name and an address, and acted as a way to translate between
them. Symbols can be more complex than that, and so this change
encapsulates the information associated with a symbol in a new class.
As a step towards simplifying the API for reading symbols from a
binary, this change also adds a "binding" field to that class so that
global, local and weak symbols can all go in the same table and be
differentiated later as needed. That should unify the current API
which has a method for each symbol type.
While the innards of SymbolTable were being reworked, this change
also makes that class more STL like by adding iterators, and begin
and end methods. These iterate over a new vector which holds all the
symbols. The address and name keyed maps now hold indexes into that
vector instead of the other half of the symbol.

The components in base/loader were moved into a namespace called
Loader. This will make it easier to add loader components with fairly
short natural names which don't invite name collisions.
gem5 should use namespaces more in general for that reason and to make
it easier to write independent components without having to worry about
name collisions being added in the future.
Unfortunately this namespace has the same name as a class used to load
an object file into a process object. These names can be disambiguated
because the Process loader is inside the Process scope and the Loader
namespace is at global scope, but it's still confusing to read.
Fortunately, this shouldn't last for very long since the responsibility
for loading Processes is going to move to a fake OS object which will
expect to load a particular type of Process, for instance, fake 64 bit
x86 linux will load either 32 or 64 bit x86 processes.
That means that the capability to feed any binary that matches the
current build into gem5 and have gem5 figure out what to do with it
will likely be going away in the future. That's likely for the best,
since it will force users to be more explicit about what they're trying
to do, ie what OS they want to try to load a given binary, and also
will prevent loading two or more Processes which are for different OSes
to the same system, something that's possible today as far as I know
since there are no consistency checks.

This generalized Workload SimObject is not geared towards FS or SE
simulations, although currently it's only used in FS. This gets rid
of the ARM specific highestELIs64 property (from the workload, not the
system) and replaces it with a generic getArch.
The old globally accessible kernel symtab has been replaced with a
symtab accessor which takes a ThreadContext *. The parameter isn't used
for anything for now, but in cases where there might be multiple
symbol tables to choose from (kernel vs. current user space?) the
method will now be able to distinguish which to use. This also makes
it possible for the workload to manage its symbol table with whatever
policy makes sense for it.
That method returns a const SymbolTable * since most of the time the
symbol table doesn't need to be modified. In the one case where an
external entity needs to modify the table, two pseudo instructions,
the table to modify isn't necessarily the one that's currently active.
For instance, the pseudo instruction will likely execute in user space,
but might be intended to add a symbol to the kernel in case something
like a module was loaded.
To support that usage, the workload has a generic "insertSymbol" method
which will insert the symbol in the table that "makes sense". There is
a lot of ambiguity what that means, but it's no less ambiguous than
today where we're only saved by the fact that there is generally only
one active symbol table to worry about.
This change also introduces a KernelWorkload SimObject class which
inherits from Workload and adds in kernel related members for cases
where the kernel is specified in the config and loaded by gem5 itself.
That's the common case, but the base Workload class would be used
directly when, for instance, doing a baremetal simulation or if the
kernel is loaded by software within the simulation as is the case for
SPARC FS.
Because a given architecture specific workload class needs to inherit
from either Workload or KernelWorkload, this change removes the
ability to boot ARM without a kernel. This ability should be restored
in the future.
To make having or not having a kernel more flexible, the kernel
specific members of the KernelWorkload should be factored out into
their own object which can then be attached to a workload through a
(potentially unused) property rather than inheritance.
