The variable 'm_allow_zero_latency' was only used in an assert message in
`src/mem/ruby/network/MessageBuffer.cc`. This assert is stripped when
compiling to gem5.fast, resulting in the compilation failing with an
unused variable error.
This assert is better as a panic_if, which will not be stripped out
during the .fast compilation.

For the next release of gem5, we are dropping support for Python2. The
Ubuntu 18.04 Docker images were running with Python2. This has been
updated.
It should be noted that there is, at present, no eligant solution to the
issue that older versions of Scons (such as that obtainable via APT in
Ubuntu 18.04) use Python2. Those wishing to compile with these Docker
Images should use
`/usr/bin/env python3 $(which scons) build/X86/gem5.op5`

Previously the SimpleMem depended on the fact that it inherited from the
AbstractMem in order to access and export it's back door. Now, the
AbstractMem has a method which will set a back door pointer if
appropriate, which the SimpleMem can use, or anything else which uses an
AbstractMem as its backing store.
Also, make the AbstractMem invalidate any existing back doors and refuse
to give out any new ones while some bit of memory is locked. That's
because if the storage is accessed directly, the AbstractMem will have
no change to manage its bookkeeping, and locking won't work properly.

There were accessors for reading these indexes, but they were not
consistently used. This change makes them private to StaticInst, and
changes places that were accessing them directly to instead use the
accessors. New accessors are added for code generated by the ISA parser
and some ARM code to set the indexes without accessing them directly.
By forcing these values to be behind accessors, it will be much simpler
to change how those values are stored and retrieved.

Several TLB invalidation instructions rely on VMID matching. This is
only applicable is EL2 is implemented and enabled in the current state.
The code prior to this patch was making the now invalid assumption that
we shouldn't consider the VMID if we are doing a secure lookup. This is
because in the past if we were in secure mode we were sure EL2 was not
enabled.
This is fishy and not valid anymore anyway after the introduction of
secure EL2.

This change is useful when using custom simulation scripts that do not
rely on configs/common/Options.py.
Without this change, the custom script always needed to provide some
value for cache sizes and HW prefetchers configuration; with this change
it is possible to provide no value and use what is defined in the core
configuration as default.

This verifies that the slightly more complex --addr command line option
behaves as expected.
Also, like the inst and semi call type unit tests, it will either
attempt to successfully perform a call to the "sum" m5 op if it's told
it's running under gem5, or it will attempt to catch itself failing to
run that command by using mprotect to block its access to the mmap-ed
region and then looks at the siginfo_t to make sure the attempted access
was to the right place, etc.
It also will attempt to verify the details of the mmap if possible by
looking up information about its own mmap-ings in /proc. If the file it
would expect to find the mappings in doesn't exist, it prints a warning
and gives up. If it does, it looks through it to find the line
corresponding to the m5 ops, and then checks some details of the mapping
like its size and its offset in the target file. The offset would
correspond to the physical address if using the real /dev/mem.

Modern libraries such as ROCm, MPI, and libnuma use files in Linux'
sysfs to determine the system topology such as number of CPUs, cache
size, cache associativity, etc. If Linux does not recognize the vendor
string returned by CPUID in x86 it will do a generic initialization
which does not include creating these files. In the case of ROCm
(specifically ROCt) this causes failures when getting device properties.
This can be solved by setting the vendor string to, for example,
AuthenticAMD (as qemu does) so that Linux will create the relevant sysfs
files. Unfortunately, simply changing the string in cpuid.cc to
AuthenticAMD causes simulation slowdown and may not be desirable to all
users. This change creates a parameter, defaulting to M5 Simulator as it
currently is, which can be set in python configuration files to change
the vendor string. Example of how to configure this is:
for i in range(len(self.cpus)):
for j in range(len(self.cpus[i].isa)):
self.cpus[i].isa[j].vendor_string = "AuthenticAMD"

A memory willing to autogenerate child nodes can do that directly in
the generateDeviceTree method. However sometimes portions of memory
(child nodes) are tagged for specific applications. Hardcoding the
child node in the parent memory class is not flexible, so we delegate
this to the application model, which is registering the generator
helper via the ParentMem interface

The event in KVM x86 SE mode plays double duty, triggering a system call
or a page fault depending on where it's called from (the system call
handler vs page fault handler).
This means we can eliminate the page fault gem5 op and the
pseudo_inst.hh switching header file.
This change touches a lot of things, but there wasn't really a good
place to split it up which still made sense and was consistent and
functional.

The *vast* majority of SimObjects use the standard boilerplate version
of their Params::create() method which just returns new
ClassName(*this); Rather than force every class to define this method,
or annoy and frustrate users who forget and then get linker errors, this
change automates the default while leaving the possibility of defining a
custom create() method for non-default cases.
The situations this mechanism handles can be first broken down by
whether the SimObject class has a constructor of the normal form, ie one
that takes a const Params reference as its only parameter.
If no, then no default create() implementation is defined, and one
*must* be defined by the user.
If yes, then a default create() implementation is defined as a weak
symbol. If the user still wants to define their own create method for
some reason, perhaps to add debugging info, to keep track of instances
in c++, etc., then they can and it will override the weak symbol and
take precedence.
The way this is implemented is not straightforward. A set of classes are
defined which use SFINAE which either map in the real Params type or a
dummy based on whether the normal constructor exists in the SimObject
class. Then those classes are used to define *a* create method.
Depending on how the SFINAE works out, that will either be *the* create
method on the real Params struct, or a create method on a dummy class
set up to just absorb the definition and then go away. In either case the
create() method is a weak symbol, but in the dummy case it
doesn't/shouldn't matter.
Annoyingly the compiler insists that the weak symbol be visible. While
that makes total sense normally, we don't actually care what happens to
the weak symbol if it's attached to the dummy class. Unfortunately that
means we need to make the dummy class globally visible, although we put
it in a namespace to keep it from colliding with anything useful.

something. It's up to the workload to know what information to look for
to interpret an event, such as what PC it came from, what register

OS is running?).
