The KVM_ISA setting was moved into a CONF dict, but the code which
ensured it had a default if there was no possible KVM hosting ISA was
still setting that variable in the base environment dict. This moves
the setting into the CONF dict instead.

The TARGET_ISA variable would let you select one ISA from a list of
possible ISAs. That has now been replaced with USE_ARM_ISA, USE_X86_ISA,
etc, variables which are boolean on or off. That will allow any number
of ISAs to be enabled or disabled individually. Enabling something other
than exactly one of these will probably prevent you from getting a
working gem5 binary, but those problems are being addressed in other,
parallel change series.
I decided to use the USE_ prefix since it was consistent with most other
on/off variables we have in gem5. One noteable exception is the
BUILD_GPU setting which, you could convincingly argue, is a better
prefix than USE_. Another option would be to use CONFIG_, in
anticipation of using a kconfig style config mechanism in gem5.
It seemed premature to start using a CONFIG_ prefix here, and if we
decide to switch to some other prefix like BUILD_, it should be a
purposeful choice and not something somebody just starts using.

The KvmVM will declare itself to the System object, instead of the other
way around. This way the System object can just keep an opaque KvmVM
pointer which does not depend on the KvmVM code even being compiled into
gem5. If there is a KvmVM object, that can more safely assume there is a
corresponding System object to attach itself to.
Also move use of the KvmVM pointer out of constructors, since the VM may
not have registered itself with the System object yet. Those uses can
happen in the init() method instead.

As described in a comment in the base KVM CPU, there needs to be a way
to set the next PC of a PCState object to the actual current PC. Since
this is the only place that sort of operation is needed and it's a bit
of a hack to get around a quirk of calling pseudo instructions in a KVM
CPU, we can support it by adding a virtual method for it which is
implemented by the ISA specific subclasses of the KVM CPU.

When allocating memory with operator new(size_t), we should also delete
that memory with operator delete(). Note that this is a generic form of
new and delete which do not construct an object in the allocated space,
or delete the object when freeing the space.
There were a number of places where we were over-allocating a structure
so that there would be room after it for other data, at least sometimes
to allocate C structures which would have a trailing array of some other
structure with an undefined size. Those structures were then being
stored in a std::unique_ptr with the default deleter, which just calls
full blown delete and not operator delete.
It seems that this is often ok, and I was not able to find anything that
spelled out in bold letters that it isn't. I did find this sentence:
"If the pointer passed to the standard library deallocation function was
not obtained from the corresponding standard library allocation function,
the behavior is undefined."
On this webpage:
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/memory/new/operator_delete
This is a *little* vague, since they might mean you can't mix malloc and
delete, or new and free. Strictly interpretting it though, it could mean
you can't mix operator new with regular delete, or any other mismatched
combination.
I also found that exactly how this causes problems depends on what heap
allocator you're using. When I used tcmalloc, gem5 would segfault within
that library. When I disabled tcmalloc to run valgrind, the segfault
went away. I think this may be because sometimes you get lucky and
undefined behavior is what you actually wanted, and sometimes you don't.
To fix this problem, this change overrides the deleter on all of these
unique_ptr-s so that they use operator delete. Also, it refactors some
code in arch/x86/kvm/x86_cpu.cc so that the function that allocates
memory with operator new returns a std::unique_ptr instead of a raw
pointer. This raw pointer was always immediately put into a unique_ptr
anyway, and, in addition to tidying up the call sights slightly, also
avoids having to define a custom deleter in each of those locations
instead of once in the allocation function.

This location will make the KVM support more modular, by not having the

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.

This has two purposes. First, SCons assumes that once you call
Configure, you won't set up the environment the Configure is based on
until after you get the environment back from it again with
conf.Finish(). We get away with this when the cache mode for config
tests is not "force", since Configure just reuses the environment we
pass in, and any changes we make are immediately communicated between
the two.
If the cache mode *is* "force" though, SCons modifies the decider so
that everything the conf environment goes to build looks like it's out
of date. It does that by cloning the original environment, and then
using that clone to do its tests. That causes a problem because we have
a long lived "conf" object and make further changes to main, and since
the two environments are now separate the one in conf doesn't see those
updates.
Second, and more subtly, we export our "main" and "env" environments so
that other SConsopts and SConscript files can use them and define things
in them. The way Configure is designed, if the config caching mode is
"force", then it will create a new environment, and then that
environment will replace what the, for instance, "main" variable points
to when "main = conf.Finish()" is executed.
Unfortunately, if we've already Export()-ed main, we've exported what
the "main" variable pointed to at that time. Our view of "main" will
track with the value that conf.Finish() returned, but since that
construction environment is mearly derived from the main we Exported and
not actually the same thing, they have diverged at that point and will
behave independently.
To solve both of these problems, this change modifies the
gem5_scons.Configure() method so that it's a context manager instead of
a regular function. As before, it will call Configure for us and create
a configuration context, which it will yield as the "with" value. When
the context exits, all the variables in the context Finish() returns
will be shoved back into the original context with Replace(). This isn't
perfect since variables which were deleted in the environment (probably
very rare in practice) will not exist and so will not overwrite the
still existent variable in the original dict.
This has several advantages. The environment never splits into two
copies which continue on independently. It makes the lifetime of a
configuration context short, which is good because behavior during that
time is tricky and unintuitive. It also makes the scope of the context
very clear, so that you won't miss the fact that you're in a special
setting and need to pay attention to what environment you're modifying.
Also, this keeps the conceptual overhead of configuration localized to
where the configuration is happening. In parts of the SConscripts which
are not doing anything with conf, etc, they don't have to modify their
behavior since no configuration context is active.
This change is based on this change from Hanhwi Jang who identified this
problem and proposed an initial solution:

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/
