This will be used by the TLB to do the actual translation.
Unfortunately there isn't a great way to tell what translation type to
use, so we just go through all of them for now. The ARM subclass might
specialize and figure out which address spaces to use based on control
register state.

Other scripts (like se.py) blindly try to apply the indirect predictor
if one is set. Because this option defaults to something, there's no
way (as far as I know) to purposefully select nothing, and so the
simulator crashes. Users shouldn't have to proactively prevent gem5
from killing itself regardless, so the default was changed to "None".

kernelExtras facilitates a way for users to provide additional
blobs to load into memory. As of now, the creation of the extra
images is done independently of the kernel being provided, but
the loading is only done if the kernel is present.
This patch refactors the loading of extra images to be committed
if no kernel is present.

9p allows the guest Linux kernel to mount a host directory into the guest.
This allows to very easily modify test programs after a run at the end of
boot, without the need to re-insert the changes into a disk image.
It is enabled on both fs.py and fs_bigLITTLE.py with the --vio-9p
option.
Adapted from code originally present on the wiki: http://gem5.org/WA-gem5
As documented in the CLI option help, the current setup requires the guest
to know the full path to the host share, which is annoying, but overcoming
that would require actually parsing a bit of the protocol rather than just
forwarding everything to diod.

As a side effect, make the local variable hostAddr use snake_case

In python 3, the curses escape sequences are bytes objects and not
strings, making them unsuitable to concatenate to strings which are
being print()-ed. This uses the decode() method to turn them from bytes
objects into string objects, assuming they represent UTF-8. In python
2, bytes objects and strings are treated interchangeably, and so this
isn't necessary.

The logic that determines which syscall to call was built into the
implementation of faults/exceptions or even into the instruction
decoder, but that logic can depend on what OS is being used, and
sometimes even what version, for example 32bit vs. 64bit.
This change pushes that logic up into the Process objects since those
already handle a lot of the aspects of emulating the guest OS. Instead,
the ISA or fault implementations just notify the rest of the system
that a nebulous syscall has happened, and that gets propogated upward
until the process does something with it. That's very analogous to how
a system call would work on a real machine.
When a system call happens, the low level component which detects that
should call tc->syscall(&fault), where tc is the relevant thread (or
execution) context, and fault is a Fault which can ultimately be set
by the system call implementation.
The TC implementor (probably a CPU) will then have a chance to do
whatever it needs to to handle a system call. Currently only O3 does
anything special here. That implementor will end up calling the
Process's syscall() method.
Once in Process::syscall, the process object will use it's contextual
knowledge to determine what system call is being requested. It then
calls Process::doSyscall with the right syscall number, where doSyscall
centralizes the common mechanism for actually retrieving and calling
into the system call implementation.

In Alpha and MIPS, the argc and argv values should be in what happens
to be the first and second syscall argument registers, but that's not
by definition. The process objects of both those ISAs know what
registers to use intrinsically, so there's also no reason to call out
to a helper method which acts as a part of the Process's interface to
the rest of gem5.

Architecture states the system counter has a fixed base frequency
provided in the first entry of the frequency modes table. Optionally,
other lower frequencies may be specified in consecutive entries.
This patch adds configurable frequencies to the GenericTimer model.
The default base frequency is kept as the one that was previously
hardcoded for backwards compatibility.
The table is not recommended to be updated once the system is running.

AArch32 floating point registers. Sometimes it is just used for indexing
a free register storage to be used by microcode. In that scenario,
VecSpecialElem should be used, which is a index to the first available
non architectural register for floating point.

The generic VLdmStm class (modelling A32 VLDM/VSTM) is handling a wrong
register list in a inconsistent way. Some instructions are opting
for being decoded as Unknown, while others handle it inside the
macro instruction constructor by manually adjusting the reglist.
Those are two valid implementation of the CONSTRAINT UNPREDICTABLE
behaviour (1 and 3):
"If regs > 16 || (d+regs) > 32 , then one of the following behaviors must
occur:
1) The instruction is UNDEFINED .
2) The instruction executes as NOP .
3) One or more of the SIMD and floating-point registers are UNKNOWN . If
the instruction specifies writeback, the base register becomes UNKNOWN .
This behavior does not affect any general-purpose registers."
This patch unfies the behaviour by always opting for option 1) over 3)

In an earlier patch, the FCSR was split into its two components, FRM and
FFLAGS, causing explicit writes to FCSR to incur two CSR writes. With
the O3 CPU model, which defers them both to later, this creates a bug
where an assertion that the number of CSR writes must be less than
MaxMiscDestRegs fails because that constant is 1. This patch sets it to
2 so the O3 CPU is compatible with this scheme.

Commit messages must contain the following components:
<gem5_tags>: <title>
<description>
<patch_tags>
<gem5_tags> are comma separated keywords (found in MAINTAINERS) that
describe which sections of gem5 are being modified by the patch.
Two special keywords can also be used to imply that the author is
looking for feedback on the way their commit was implemented (RFC),
and to inform that the commit is a work in progress (WIP).
<title> A short and concise description of the commit without trailing
whitespaces
<description> is an optional (yet highly recommended) detailed
description of the objective of the commit.
<patch_tags> describe the metadata of the commit, and most of them
are automatically added by Gerrit.
