This patch is adding a StreamID tag to any DMA Packet. StreamIDs are
tags which are used by IOMMUs to distinguish between different
devices/functions.
For PCI devices for example, the RID (Pci Bus number, Pci Device
number, Pci Function number) could be stored in the Packet streamID
field.
For the DmaDevice base class, a simple pair of (Sub)StreamIDs has been
provided. This is basically attaching a fixed (decided at python config
time) streamID per device. If a derived device wants to implement a
more elaborate packet tagger (for example if it wants to have more than
one streamID), it needs to pass a different StreamID and SubstreamID to
the DmaPort interface (like dmaAction).

Some methods like groupPriorityMask check for the value of binary point
registers. Those registers have a minimum value. Writing to those
register is taking this into account, but the problem with the minimum
value arises when the value is checked before sw is writing to them.
In this case the minimum value won't be considered if the read is
directly forwarded to the ISA class.

Refactoring the existing in code in smaller methods will be crucial when
adding the ITS module, which is a client for the redistributor class and
which will require it to take different actions depending on the command
it receives from software.
List of methods:
* read/writeEntryLPI
Reading/Writing a byte from the LPI pending table
* isPendingLPI
Checks if the pINTID LPI is set. Knowing if an LPI is set is needed by
the MOVI command, which is transfering the pending state from one
redistributor to the other only if the LPI is pending.

This doesn't need to be plumbed through generic interfaces. If the
function/instruction got more complex in the future (unlikely since
Alpha doesn't really see development these days), it could be moved to
a helper function defined within Alpha files.

54c77aa055 introduced a bug which manifests as cyclical
dependency on a member initialization for the Process
class.
The current working directory (cwd) parameter is passed into
Process to initialize both the target and host versions of the
cwd. (The target and host versions may differ if the faux
filesystem is used.) The host cwd init invoked methods which
rely on the host cwd already being initialized. To avoid the
bug, the code will now rely on using the targets cwd version,
but will issue checks against the redirect paths.

Then cast to the ISA specific type when necessary. This removes
(mostly) an ISA specific aspect to some of the interfaces. The ISA
specific version of the kernel stats still needs to be constructed and
stored in a few places which means that kernel_stats.hh still needs to
be a switching arch header, for instance.
In the future, I'd like to make the kernel its own object like the
Process objects in SE mode, and then it would be able to instantiate
and maintain its own stats.

This mechanism had just been plumbed into the regular request_update,
but that doesn't have any thread safety which is the whole point of
async_request_update. This new mechanism puts async update requests
into their own list which is checked any time normal updates happen.
The delta cycle which triggers those updates must happen through some
other means which will usually be ok. The exact timing of the update
is undefined, so it would be legal for it to either not be recognized
before the impending end of the simulation, or for it to get picked up
by subsequent activity. If there isn't subsequent activity but the
simulation also doesn't end, for instance if there are only gem5 events
left, then that update could be lost. That is an unresolved issue.
It would be nice to schedule a "ready" event if async updates were
added which would ensure they wouldn't starve. Unfortunately that
requires the event queue lock, and in practice it's been found that a
systemc process might block, effectively holding the event queue lock,
while it waits for some asyncrhonous update to give it something to do.
This effectively deadlocks the system since the update is blocked on
the lock the main thread holds, and the main thread is blocked waiting
for the update.

These accessors can be implemented as helper functions within MIPS
without having to plumb them through a bunch of common interfaces.
There are a few problems with the way they were implemented which are
carried forward to this new implementation as well. That includes
hiding the register accesses from the ISA parser and therefore the
CPU's dependency tracking, potentially panicing or accessing a non
existent thread based on a possible set of input values, and modifying
register values even if an instruction is being executed speculatively.
Fixing these problems would be fairly involved and require changing how
dependencies are tracked in all the CPUs so that they can act across
threads, and also how registers are handled in the ISA description
itself.
The original implementation just punted on making this work in CPUs
other than the minor CPU (and potentially one or more CPU models that
were not and/or are not in the code base). Where as that implementation
might have paniced if these methods were called, this will attempt to
work, but may have incorrect behavior based on the limitations
described above. I'd consider this an acceptable tradeoff, at least for
the time being.

When dumping the opcode that caused an Undefined Instruction, we just
want to dump the real instruction encoding, and not the extended version
with metabits (like thumb, bigThumb etc). This was not appening when
panicking in SE mode.
The patch is also replacing custom masking in the Unknown(64) disassembler
in favour of ArmStaticInstruction::encoding() helper.

The AuxVector type has a bunch of accessors which just give access to
the underlying variables through references. We might as well just make
those members accessible directly.
Also, the AuxVector doesn't need to handle endianness flips itself. We
can tell the byteswap mechanism how to flip an AuxVector, and let it
handle that for us.
This gets rid of the entire .cc file which was complicated by trying
to both hide the ISA specific endianness translations, and instantiate
templated functions in a .cc.

have been renamed to just read/write instead of readGtoH and writeHtoG
since the direction of the translation is obvious from context.

This change introduces the concept of a faux-filesystem.
The faux-filesystem creates a directory structure in m5out
(or whatever output dir the user specifies) where system calls
may be redirected.
This is useful to avoid non-determinism when reading files
with varying path names (e.g., variations from run-to-run if
the simulation is scheduled on a cluster where paths may change).
Also, this changeset allows circumventing host pseudofiles which
have information specific to the host processor (such as cache
hierarchy or processor information). Bypassing host pseudofiles
can be useful when executing runtimes in the absence of an
operating system kernel since runtimes may try to query standard
files (i.e. /proc or /sys) which are not relevant to an
application executing in syscall emulation mode.
