The create() method on Params structs usually instantiate SimObjects
using a constructor which takes the Params struct as a parameter
somehow. There has been a lot of needless variation in how that was
done, making it annoying to pass Params down to base classes. Some of
the different forms were:
const Params &
Params &
Params *
const Params *
Params const*
This change goes through and fixes up every constructor and every
create() method to use the const Params & form. We use a reference
because the Params struct should never be null. We use const because
neither the create method nor the consuming object should modify the
record of the parameters as they came in from the config. That would
make consuming them not idempotent, and make it impossible to tell what
the actual simulation configuration was since it would change from any
user visible form (config script, config.ini, dot pdf output).

There has been some testing of this wrapper, but some components are
missing. It's not currently possible to read or set Misc registers,
64 bit integer registers, flattened integer registers, or vector
registers. In some cases that's because no mapping from gem5 indexes
to IRIS resource names has been set up, but in some cases, since R52
is 32 bit, no mapping *can* be set up, and we need to figure out what
to do with requests for 64 bit only state.

These regular expressions search code snippets to find places where
operands are used. Rather than build them explicitly at the end of
processing the operands{{}} construct, wait until they're first going to
be used. That way, we'll be able to define operands in as many places as
we want, as long as we've done all we're going to do before the first
instructions are defined.
This will pave the way to defining operands in regular python in let
blocks, and then possibly outside of the parser altogether, perhaps into
scons where having lots of output files for individual instructions will
be easier to manage. For now, this just lets you define multiple
operands blocks which is not all that exciting on its own :)

This includes the filterDoubles function which adds code to combine 32
bit values into doubles or 64 bit values for floating point, and the
splitOutImm function which detects if the code that implements an
instruction has a register and immediate variant, and generates code for
each.

With some exceptions (in arm/x86) the standard memory read/write interface
for instructions relies upon the helper functions in
src/arch/generic/memhelpers.hh
which wrap the ExecContext interface.
(readMem, writeMem...)
Those helpers rely on the source/destination data to be provided (as
expected) but not on the size of the transaction. The latter gets
evaluated via the host size of the source/destination data
(sizeof(MemT)).
For this reason some instructions, which are instead using an
incompatible MemT data (as an example, a SIMD operation loading data in
an array of integers), make direct use of the ExecContext interface,
which is simply requesting for a pointer and a number of bytes.
Some other instructions are using the ExecContext interface since the
helpers do not accept a byteEnable argument.
This patch is adding some helpers to address these issues. The idea is
to deprecate direct usage of the ExecContext APIs.
These new wrappers do not work with the type detection mechanism
to evaluate the number of bytes we are accessing.

This brings the ISA parser in line with the style guide. Note that the
docstring needs to be a single string literal for python to consider it
a docstring, and the parser itself needs each line of the docstring to
be a rule in its CFG. We can accomplish both by taking advantage of the
fact that two directly adjacent quoted strings are treated as a single
string literal by python, and by escaping the newline so that they're
actually considered adjacent.

This change replaces the __attribute__ syntax with the now standard [[]]
syntax. It also reorganizes compiler.hh so that all special macros have
some explanatory text saying what they do, and each attribute which has a
standard version can use that if available and what version of c++ it's
standard in is put in a comment.
Also, the requirements as far as where you put [[]] style attributes are
a little more strict than the old school __attribute__ style. The use of
the attribute macros was updated to fit these new, more strict
requirements.

This macro probably would have been defined to "return" in some cases,
to be put after a call to a function that doesn't return so that the
compiler wouldn't think control would reach the end of a non-void
function. It was only ever defined to expand to nothing, and now that
[[noreturn]] is a standard attribute, it should never be needed going
forward.

This change sets gpuDynInst->exec_mask for permute and bpermute
instructions, fixing a bug where they would never write their data.
permute and bpermute instructions are load instructions that write
to a VGPR. Because of that, they use gpuDynInst->exec_mask when
checking what lanes should write to the VGPR.
gpuDynInst->exec_mask gets set to wf->execMask() as that is what other
load instructions that write to VGPRs do.

System calls should now be requested from the workload directly and not
routed through ExecContext or ThreadContext interfaces. That removes a
major special case for SE mode from those interfaces.
For now, when the SE workload gets a request for a system call, it
dispatches it to the appropriate Process object. In the future, the
ISA specific Workload subclasses will be responsible for handling system
calls and not the Process classes.
For simplicity, the Workload syscall() method is defined in the base
class but will panic everywhere except when SEWorkload overrides it. In
the future, this mechanism will turn into a way to request generic
services from the workload which are not necessarily system calls. For
instance, it could be a way to request handling of a page fault without
having to have another PseudoInst just for that purpose.

A comment at the top of StaticInstFlags.py says that if IsMemRef is set,
exactly one of IsStore or IsLoad will be set. That's not strictly true
since IsAtomic may be set as well, in which case neither IsStore or
IsLoad will be set (in one example I found).
The isMemRef accessor still exists, and now just ors the IsStore,
IsLoad, and IsAtomic flags.

There were three different StaticInst flags for memory barriers,
IsMemBarrier, IsReadBarrier, and IsWriteBarrier. IsReadBarrier was never
used, and IsMemBarrier was for both loads and stores, so a composite of
IsReadBarrier and IsWriteBarrier.
This change gets rid of IsMemBarrier and replaces by setting
IsReadBarrier and IsWriteBarrier at the same time. An isMemBarrier
accessor is left, but is now implemented by checking if both of the
other flags are set, and renamed to isFullMemBarrier to make it clear
that it's checking both for both types of barrier, not one or the other.

These were being initialized with BigRegVect brv = {0}, which made the
compiler complain because there is internal structure. The first element
of the union is actually an array, and this was telling it to initialize
that array to scalar 0. It was warning about this which was breaking the
build.
Instead, use zero initlization like BigRegVect brv = {}. This
initializes the first element of the union to all zeroes, with all
padding bits initialized to zero as well.
This satisfies the compiler and avoids a build error.

This was set by MIPS in two places, I think largely just because it was
available. This flag refers to IPRs which are an Alpha concept. In the
O3 CPU, IsIprAccess was used as a possible indicator to determine if an
instruction IsSerializeBefore, but we've already got a flag for that. In
the minor CPU, which hasn't been made to work with MIPS as far as I
know, it was used in a condition but not mentioned in the comment
alongside the condition. I think there it was added for the sake of
Alpha.
This change eliminates that flag and removes it from the O3 and minor
CPUs. In the MIPS ISA description, the instructions that were marked as
IsIprAccess have now been marked as IsSerializeBefore since, if there
was a real reason for them to be marked as IsIprAccess, it would have
been to get it them to work in O3, and there IsSerializeBefore gets
equivalent behavior.
