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.

Glibc requires x86-64-v2 ISA level on newer Linux distributions (e.g.
Debian Bookworm), and running applications in GEM5 will fail with "CPU
ISA level is lower than required" error. It is due to glibc not
detecting CPU features when the vendor string is unknown yet requiring
them to run. For glibc to detect correct CPU features, this commit adds
a command line option to allow user to override x86 cpu vendor string to
well-known ones, e.g. GenuineIntel. It allows glibc to detect more cpu
features and fixes the issue.

The environment variable HSA_ENABLE_INTERRUPT controls if Interrupt or
busy wait signals are used in the ROCm runtime. Interrupts are not being
sent in gem5 causing simulations to hang indefinitely in certain
situations. To fix this, always disable interrupts to fall back to busy
wait signals. Using interrupts is an old and simple optimization to not
waste CPU cycles, but from the perspective of simulation this is not
important. Disabling interrupt-based HSA signals therefore increases the
number of applications working within gem5.

not directly affect the L1 latency as the name implies. Instead,

Update the Part 3 config file examples in learning gem5 to resolve a

The fix resolves this by initializing self.int_links to a pre-declared

Make it possible to read any type of reg, assuming it fits in a RegVal.
This avoids assuming building in a dependency on the readIntReg
accessor.
It also avoids setting up a situation where the API could at least
theoretically base the timing expression on the value of *any* int reg,
even ones the instruction does not interact with. The ...ReadIntReg
expression was only ever used with the result of the ...SrcReg
expression, and in my opinion, that's realy the only way it makes sense
to use it. It doesn't seem useful to split that operation into two
parts.
If it actually does make sense (although I doubt this), these operations
can't really be generalized easily since the TimingExpr... classes all
expect to pass around uint64_ts, and a RegId, the *real* value of a
SrcReg index which does not assume a register type, would not fit in
that in the general case.

This change splits the default gem5 memory controller into two
memory controllers: MemCtrl (base memory controller which can be
used with only a single memory interface dram/nvm), and
HeteroMemCtrl (heterogeneous memory controller which inherits from
MemCtrl and requires a dram and an nvm memory interface).
New arguments are added to many of the base class (MemCtrl) functions
(for example memory inteface to use that function for) which helps
in easier use of these in the inherited class (HeteroMemCtrl).

The supported version of ROCm in GPUFS only supports the DKMS build of
the amdgpu driver. However, since a gem5 user can potentially pass in
any Linux kernel as a parameter, it is possible that the DKMS package
for that kernel was not installed on the disk image. This would result
in the simulation appearing to work when in reality it is just spinning
waiting for commands from the driver. This check exits gem5 early in the
simulation and outputs an error on the console to sanity check the
correct driver is being used.

The main restriction with this design is it results in one ISA target
per board. The ISA is declared per core. To make the design simpler it's
assumed a Processor (a collection of cores) are all of the same ISA. As
each board has one processor, this also means a board is typically tied
to one ISA per simulation.
In order to remain backwards compatible and maintain the standard
library APIs, this patch adds a `--main-isa` parameter which will
determine what `gem5.runtime.get_runtime_isa` returns in cases where
mutliple ISAs are compiled in. When setting the ISA in a simulation (via
the Processor or Cores), the user may, as before, choose not to and, in
this case, the `gem5.runtime.get_runtime_isa` function is used.
The `gem5.runtime.get_runtime_isa` function is an intermediate step
which should be removed in future versions of gem5 (users should specify
precisely what ISA they want via configuration scripts). For this reason
it throws a warning when used and should not be heavily relied upon. It
is deprecated.

The amdgpu driver supports fetching instructions from pages which reside
in system memory rather than device memory. This changeset adds support
to do this by adding the system hub object added in a prior changeset to
the fetch unit and issues requests to the system hub if the system bit
in the memory page's PTE is set. Otherwise, the requestor ID is set to
be device memory and the request is routed through the Ruby network /
GPU caches to fetch the instructions.

Add the constructors for the Vega TLB and TLB coalescers in the python
config. These need a pointer to the gpu device which is added as a
parameter. The last level TLB's page table walker is added as a dma
device to the system so that the port is connected to the GPU device
memory in the disjoint VIPER configuration file.
A portion of the the GPUFS system configuration file needs to be
shuffled around so that the shader CPU is created before the TLBs are
created so they can be connected to the shader's ports. This means the
real CPU init code needs to break once reaching the shader. The vendor
string must also be set after createThreads is called on real CPUs.

The CorePairs in MOESI_AMD_Base round up the number of CPUs when
creating CPU sequencers. If the CPU count is an odd number, this was
causing the Disjoint_VIPER config to connect a sequencer that does not
exist. As a result the crossbar was waiting for a range change from the
sequencer but it never arrived, causing an assert.
This patch fixes this by conditionally connecting CPU sequencers to the
PIO port only if the ID is less than the number of CPUs.
