Adding RP_choose functions to change replacement policies among
TreePLRU, LRU, FIFO, LFU, LIP, MRU, NRU, RRIP, SecondChance AND ShiPMem replacement
policies for TCC, TCP and SQC caches for GPU
The scalar cache is not being invalidated which causes stale data to be
left in the scalar cache between GPU kernels. This commit sends
invalidates to the scalar cache when the SQC is invalidated. This is a
sufficient baseline for simulation.
Since the number of invalidates might be larger than the mandatory queue
can hold and no flash invalidate mechanism exists in the VIPER protocol,
the command line option for the mandatory queue size is removed, which
is the same behavior as the SQC.

Added a resource constraint, AtomicALUOperation, to GLC atomics
performed in the TCC.
The resource constraint uses a new class, ALUFreeList array. The class
assumes the following:
- There are a fixed number of atomic ALU pipelines
- While a new cache line can be processed in each pipeline each cycle,
if a cache line is currently going through a pipeline, it can't be
processed again until it's finished
Two configuration parameters have been used to tune this behavior:
- tcc-num-atomic-alus corresponds to the number of atomic ALU pipelines
- atomic-alu-latency corresponds to the latency of atomic ALU pipelines

PR #367 adds an option to configs/ruby/GPU_VIPER.py that was not added
to the corresponding dGPU equal for GPUFS and thus all GPUFS runs are
failing. Fixed in this patch.
Added checks to ensure that atomics are not performed in the TCC when it
is configured as a write-through cache. Also added SLC bit overwrite to
ensure directory preforms atomics when there is a write-through TCC.

Previously, the L1, L2 number of banks and L2 latencies were not
configurable through command line arguments. This commit adds support to
configure them through the arguments '--tcp-num-banks' for number of
banks in L1, '--tcc-num-banks' for number of banks in L2, and
'--tcc-tag-access-latency', and '--tcc-data-access-latency'
Change-Id: Ie3b713ead16865fd7120e2d809ebfa56b69bc4a1
Added a GLC atomic latency parameter (glc-atomic-latency) used when
enqueueing response messages regarding atomics directly performed in
the TCC. This latency is added in addition to the L2 response latency
(TCC_latency). This represents the latency of performing an atomic
within the L2.
With this change, the TCC response queue will receive enqueues with
varying latencies as GLC atomic responses will have this added GLC
atomic latency while data responses will not. To accommodate this in
light of the queue having strict FIFO ordering (which would be violated
here), this change also adds an optional parameter bypassStrictFIFO to
the SLICC enqueue function which allows overriding strict FIFO
requirements for individual messages on a case-by-case basis. This
parameter is only being used in the TCC's atomic response enqueue call.

Update the TCP_latency input arg to reflect what it does -- in
combination with the number of banks, it determines the number of
accesses that can happen in the L1 (TCP) in a given cycle. It does
not directly affect the L1 latency as the name implies. Instead,
the mandatory_queue_latency does this.

The VIPER configuration uses the MOESI_AMD_Base protocol's directory.
This protocol does not wait for memory ACKs. As a result, this can lead
to read requests being pulled out of the MessageBuffer between the
directory and DRAMCtrl before a write request to the same address. This
leads to inconsistent data. To fix this, make the MessageBuffers
ordered. Since these MessageBuffers are essentially just an interface
between SLICC and DRAMCtrl, and DRAMCtrl can reorder requests properly,
this should not cause any large impact on performance due to the
constraint.
Also remove the duplicate instantiation of these MessageBuffers.

In order to have more fine grained control over which SLICC controllers
are part of which Ruby network in a disjoint configuration, the
create_system function in GPU_VIPER is broken up into multiple construct
calls for each SLICC machine type in the protocol. By default this does
not change anything functionally. A future config will use the construct
calls to explicitly set which network (CPU or GPU) the controller is in.

Calls to queueMemoryRead and queueMemoryWrite do not consider the size
of the queue between ruby directories and DRAMCtrl which causes infinite
buffering in the queued port between the two. This adds a MessageBuffer
in between which uses enqueues in SLICC and is therefore size checked
before any SLICC transaction pushing to the buffer can occur, removing
the infinite buffering between the two.

Add support in Ruby to use all replacement policies in Classic.
Furthermore, if new replacement policies are added to the
Classic system, the Ruby system will recognize new policies
without any other changes in Ruby system. The following list
all the major changes:
* Make Ruby cache entries (AbstractCacheEntry) inherit from
Classic cache entries (ReplaceableEntry). By doing this,
replacement policies can use cache entries from Ruby caches.
AccessPermission and print function are moved from
AbstractEntry to AbstractCacheEntry, so AbstractEntry is no
longer needed.
* DirectoryMemory and all SLICC files are changed to use
AbstractCacheEntry as their cache entry interface. So do the
python files in mem/slicc/ast which check the entry
interface.
* "main='false'" argument is added to the protocol files where
the DirectoryEntry is defined. This change helps
differentiate DirectoryEntry from CacheEntry because they are
both the instances of AbstractCacheEntry now.
* Use BaseReplacementPolicy in Ruby caches instead of
AbstractReplacementPolicy so that Ruby caches will recognize
the replacement policies from Classic.
* Add getLastAccess() and useOccupancy() function to Classic
system so that Ruby caches can use them. Move lastTouchTick
to ReplacementData struct because it's needed by
getLastAccess() to return the correct value.
* Add a 2-dimensional array of ReplacementData in Ruby caches
to store information for different replacement policies. Note
that, unlike Classic caches, where policy information is
stored in cache entries, the policy information needs to be
stored in a new 2-dimensional array. This is due to Ruby
caches deleting the cache entry every time the corresponding
cache line get evicted.

This patch updates the FileSystemConfig so it works with more kinds of
config scripts (e.g., the Learning gem5 scripts).
There are 4 main changes:
- Added system as a parameter to the config_filesystem function so the
function can search the system for the number of CPUs instead of relying
on options from Options.py
- Instead of calling redirect_paths everywhere config_filesystem is
used, now it is implicitly called.
- Cleaned up the Ruby scripts a bit to remove redundant calls to
config_filesystem
- Added a config_filesystem call to the Ruby Learning gem5 script
(currently the only Learning gem5 script that requires it).
In the future, I think it would be better to move the config_filesystem
call into simulate.py, probably into the instantiate function. I tried to
use the per-CPU configuration parameters instead of options from
Options.py, but that's not possible until after the SimObject params
have been finalized in instantiate.

This patch moves the addition of network options into the Ruby module
to avoid the regressions all having to add it explicitly. Doing this
exposes an issue in our current config system though, namely the fact
that addtoPath is relative to the Python script being executed. Since
both example and regression scripts use the Ruby module we would end
up with two different (relative) paths being added. Instead we take a
first step at turning the config modules into Python packages, simply
by adding a __init__.py in the configs/ruby, configs/topologies and
configs/network subdirectories.
As a result, we can now add the top-level configs directory to the
Python search path, and then use the package names in the various
modules. The example scripts are also updated, and the messy
path-deducing variations in the scripts are unified.
