We currently use the traditional SI-like prefixes for to represent

since they overload the meaning of the SI prefix.
Here are some examples of commonly used in the industry:
* Storage vendors define 1 MB as 10**6 bytes
* Memory vendors define 1 MB as 2**20 bytes
* Network equipment treats 1Mbit/s as 10**6 bits/s
* Memory vendors define 1Mbit as 2**20 bits
In practice, this means that a FLASH chip on a storage bus uses
decimal prefixes, but that same flash chip on a memory bus uses binary
prefixes. It would also be reasonable to assume that the contents of a
1Mbit FLASH chip would take 0.1s to transfer over a 10Mbit Ethernet
link. That's however not the case due to different meanings of the
prefix.
The quantity 2MX is treated differently by gem5 depending on the unit
X:
* Physical quantities (s, Hz, V, A, J, K, C, F) use decimal prefixes.
* Interconnect and NoC bandwidths (B/s) use binary prefixes.
* Network bandwidths (bps) use decimal prefixes.
* Memory sizes and storage sizes (B) use binary prefixes.
Mitigate this ambiguity by consistently using the ISO/IEC/SI prefixes
for binary multipliers for parameters and comments where appropriate.

When running multithreaded programs in SE-mode with DerivO3CPU model,
there are cases that two or more cores have page faults on the same page
in nearby ticks (can be at the same tick) when fetching instructions
(more likely) or accessing data. When these cores try come to the commit
stage in nearby ticks/cycles, they will try to handle the faults
(without clobbering). Then the first core will ask for a physical page
frame to map with the virtual page. In the previous version, the right
next core that tries to handle the fault will hit a panic condition in
the EmulationPageTable::map(...) as the page has been mapped and this
page fault is not to clobber the existing mapping.
In this changeset, if it is found that the page has been mapped and it
is not to clobber the existing mapping, it will return without further
mapping activities as the page fault has been handled previously.

The second argument in the std::max call is treated as an unsigned value
as all variables are unsigned as well. This will result in an
unsigned underflow, and as such the std::max is a no-op and will result
in the underflowed value.
The `start` and `used` value get corrupted after that, and checks for
`empty` and other stuff downstream break.

Comparing arrays with memcmp is fairly easy to do and will correctly
identify when a value is incorrect, but gtest doesn't know what
comparison actually happened and can't print any diagnostic information
to help the person running the test determine what went wrong.
Unfortunately, gtest is also slightly too smart and also not smart
enough to make it easy to compare the contents of sub-arrays with each
other. The thing you're checking the value of *must* be an array with a
well defined size (not a pointer), and the size *must* exactly match the
number of elements it expects to find.
One fairly clean way to get around this problem would be to use the new
std::span type introduced in c++20 which lets you refer to a sub-section
of another container in place, adjusting indexing, sizing, etc as
needed. Unfortunately since we only require up to c++-14 currently we
can't use that type.
Instead, we can create vectors which hold copies of the required data.
This is suboptimal since it means we're copying around data which
doesn't really need to be copied, but it means that the templates in
gtest will get a type they can handle, and the sizes will match like it
expects them to. Since the number of checks/copies is still small, the
overhead should be trivial in practice.
A helper function, subArr, has been added to help keep things fairly
clutter free.

The functions isSet(), noneSet(), and allSet() assume that
all bits of the underlying container have a corresponding
flag. This is typically not true, and the likelihood of
incorrectly using these functions is high.
Fortunately these functions are not being used anywhere,
and can be safely removed.
Alternatively, a mask could be provided on construction to
determine which bits of the underlying container correspond
to a flag bit, so that the proper bits are checked in these
functions.

When parsing an ISA description, the InstObjParams class needs to have a
reference to the current parser. It does that by exposing a wrapper to
the description rather than the actual InstObjParams class. That wrapper
injects an additional argument into the InstObjParams constructor.
Originally, the wrapper which injectect the additional argument was a
function which masqueraded as a class. That made it impossible to
subclass InstObjParams.
Instead, this change replaces that function wrapper with a class
wrapper, and injects the extra argument in the __init__ method. This
preserves the fact that the InstObjParams name refers to a class, and
allows any sort of interaction that's normally allowed with a class like
subclassing.

There is a race condition in VIPER where an atomic issued to the same
address can occur resulting in multiple trigger messages signalling the
compleition of the atomic operation. The first message was deallocating
the TBE causing the second message to dereference a nullptr when looking
up the TBE.
A counter is added to track the number of in flight AtomicDone trigger
messages. The AtomicDone is not called until the last in flight message
arrives at the trigger queue. The remaining messages call AtomicNotDone
which simply pops the message from the queue and keeps the TBE
allocated.

The original implementation of curTick used a thread local variable,
_curEventQueue, and its getCurTick() method, to retrieve the curTick for
the currently active event queue. That meant that core.hh needed to
include eventq.hh so that the EventQueue type was available, which also
indirectly brought in a lot of other dependencies.
Unfortunately this couldn't easily be fixed by making curTick()
non-inline since this added a significant amount of overhead when
tested.
Instead, this change makes the code in core.hh/core.cc keep a pointer
directly to a Tick. The code which sets _curEventQueue now also sets
that pointer when _curEventQueue changes.
The way curTick() now reaches into the guts of the current EventQueue
directly is not great from a modularity perspective, but if curTick is
considered an extension of the EventQueue, then it's just odd that this
part is broken out into a different file.

Before the commit, the bootloader had a hardcoded entry point that it
would jump to.
However, the Linux kernel arm64 v5.8 forced us to change the kernel
entry point because the required memory alignment has changed at:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/
commit/?h=v5.8&id=cfa7ede20f133cc81cef01dc3a516dda3a9721ee
Therefore the only way to have a single bootloader that boots both
pre-v5.8 and post-v5.8 kernels is to pass that information from gem5
to the bootloader, which we do in this patch via registers.
This approach was already used by the 32-bit bootloader, which passed
that value via r3, and we try to use the same register x3 in 64-bit.
Since we are now passing this information, the this patch also removes
the hardcoding of DTB and cpu-release-addr, and also passes those
values via registers.
We store the cpu-release-addr in x5 as that value appears to have a
function similar to flags_addr, which is used only in 32-bit arm and
gets stored in r5.
This commit renames atags_addr to dtb_addr, since both are mutually
exclusive, and serve a similar purpose, DTB being the newer recommended
approach.
Similarly, flags_addr is renamed to cpu_release_addr, and it is moved
from ArmSystem into ArmFsWorkload, since it is not an intrinsic system
property, and should be together with dtb_addr instead.
Before this commit, flags_addr was being set from FSConfig.py and
configs/example/arm/devices.py to self.realview.realview_io.pio_addr
+ 0x30. This commit moves that logic into RealView.py instead, and
sets the flags address 8 bytes before the start of the DTB address.
