a3b1bfdbf0 cpu: Add a IsPseudo StaticInstFlag for gem5 pseudo-ops
Being able to recognise pseudo ops from the static instruction
pointer is actually quite useful in several circumstances

7d2e1ee789 arch: Add instruction size and PC set methods
Adds the instruction size to all static instruction. x86, arm
and RISC-V decoders add the instruction size to every decoded
macro instruction. As microops should reflect the size of the
their parent macroop the set method is overwritten to pass the
size to all microops.
Furthermore, we add a set method to the PC state. It allows
setting a PC state to a certain address.
Both methods are required for the decoupled front-end.

5ad4cf0af1 arch,cpu,sim: Use PCStateBase in advancePC.
By using a PCStateBase pointer or reference, we can (mostly) avoid
having to know what the ISA specific PState class is, letting the ISA
specific instruction classes cast to the type they need internally.

There are a couple minor places where we need to do those casts outside
of ISA specific types, one in the generic NopStaticInstPtr class, and a
few in generic faults.

Right now, we'll just use the TheISA::PCState type in those isolated
spots (sometimes hidden by auto), and deal with it later, possibly
with a virtual "advance" method of some sort.

974a47dfb9 misc: Adopt the gem5 namespace
Apply the gem5 namespace to the codebase.

Some anonymous namespaces could theoretically be removed,
but since this change's main goal was to keep conflicts
at a minimum, it was decided not to modify much the
general shape of the files.

A few missing comments of the form "// namespace X" that
occurred before the newly added "} // namespace gem5"
have been added for consistency.

std out should not be included in the gem5 namespace, so
they weren't.

ProtoMessage has not been included in the gem5 namespace,
since I'm not familiar with how proto works.

Regarding the SystemC files, although they belong to gem5,
they actually perform integration between gem5 and SystemC;
therefore, it deserved its own separate namespace.

Files that are automatically generated have been included
in the gem5 namespace.

The .isa files currently are limited to a single namespace.
This limitation should be later removed to make it easier
to accomodate a better API.

Regarding the files in util, gem5:: was prepended where
suitable. Notice that this patch was tested as much as
possible given that most of these were already not
previously compiling.

14f14f9a62 arch,cpu,sim: Move the null and nop StaticInstPtrs to their own files.
The nullStaticInstPtr was low overhead, but the nopStaticInstPtr needed
an actual StaticInst implementation it could point to, and that brought
with it some (minor) additional dependencies. Specifically, the
implementation of advancePC needs the definition of TheISA::PCState,
while all other signatures/impementations in StaticInst are already
passing around that type by reference or could be made to, reducing
dependencies further.

e656730f35 arch-arm,cpu: Introduce a getEMI virtual method on StaticInst.
This takes the place of direct access to the machInst field as used in
the MinorCPU model which makes the incorrect assumption that it can
arbitrarily treat the ExtMachInst as an integer, and that masking in a
certain way can meaningfully classify what the instruction will do.

Because that assumption is not correct in general, that had been
ifdef-ed out in most ISAs except ARM, and for the other ISAs the value
was simply set to zero.

9fc5344c0a cpu: Access src and dest reg indexes using a pointer to member.
This will eventually let subclasses provide their own appropriately
sized storage for these indexes. By using a pointer to member instead of
a regular pointer, we ensure that even if the StaticInst is copied/moved
somewhere, it will still find its indexes correctly, without any
additional performance overhead or maintenance.

Unfortunately C++ has decided that arrays with known bounds are not
convertible/compatible with arrays with unknown bounds. I've found at
least two standards proposals in various stages of acceptance which say
that that's dumb and they should change that (because it's dumb and they
should change that), but in the mean time we can get everything to
compile by using the reinterpret_cast hammer. While this is
*technically* undefined behavior, it's basically not and should be
pretty safe.

consistently used. This change makes them private to StaticInst, and
changes places that were accessing them directly to instead use the
accessors. New accessors are added for code generated by the ISA parser
and some ARM code to set the indexes without accessing them directly.

By forcing these values to be behind accessors, it will be much simpler
to change how those values are stored and retrieved.

This change gets rid of IsMemBarrier and replaces by setting

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.

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.

9884641603 base,arch,sim,cpu: Move object file loader components into a namespace.
The components in base/loader were moved into a namespace called
Loader. This will make it easier to add loader components with fairly
short natural names which don't invite name collisions.

gem5 should use namespaces more in general for that reason and to make
it easier to write independent components without having to worry about
name collisions being added in the future.

Unfortunately this namespace has the same name as a class used to load
an object file into a process object. These names can be disambiguated
because the Process loader is inside the Process scope and the Loader
namespace is at global scope, but it's still confusing to read.

Fortunately, this shouldn't last for very long since the responsibility
for loading Processes is going to move to a fake OS object which will
expect to load a particular type of Process, for instance, fake 64 bit
x86 linux will load either 32 or 64 bit x86 processes.

That means that the capability to feed any binary that matches the
current build into gem5 and have gem5 figure out what to do with it
will likely be going away in the future. That's likely for the best,
since it will force users to be more explicit about what they're trying
to do, ie what OS they want to try to load a given binary, and also
will prevent loading two or more Processes which are for different OSes
to the same system, something that's possible today as far as I know
since there are no consistency checks.

moved into the reg_class.hh file.

81050be736 arch: Add a virtual asBytes function to the StaticInst class.
This function takes a pointer to a buffer and the current size of the
buffer as a pass by reference argument. If the size of the buffer is
sufficient, the function stores a binary representation of itself
(generally the ISA defined instruction encoding) in the buffer, and
sets the size argument to how much space it used. This could be used
by ISAs which have two instruction sizes (ARM and thumb, for example).
If the buffer size isn't sufficient, then the size parameter should be
set to what size is required, and then the function should return
without modifying the buffer.

The buffer itself should be aligned to the same standard as memory
returned by new, specifically "The pointer returned shall be suitably
aligned so that it can be converted to a pointer of any complete object
type and then used to access the object or array in the storage
allocated...". This will avoid having to memcpy buffers to avoid
unaligned accesses.

To standardize the representation of the data, it should be stored in
the buffer as little endian. Since most hosts (including ARM and x86
hosts) will be little endian, this will almost always be a no-op.

00da089029 cpu: Added interface for vector reg file
This patch adds some more functionality to the cpu model and the arch to
interface with the vector register file.

This change consists mainly of augmenting ThreadContexts and ExecContexts
with calls to get/set full vectors, underlying microarchitectural elements
or lanes. Those are meant to interface with the vector register file. All
classes that implement this interface also get an appropriate implementation.

This requires implementing the vector register file for the different
models using the VecRegContainer class.

This change set also updates the Result abstraction to contemplate the
possibility of having a vector as result.

The changes also affect how the remote_gdb connection works.

There are some (nasty) side effects, such as the need to define dummy
numPhysVecRegs parameter values for architectures that do not implement
vector extensions.

Nathanael Premillieu's work with an increasing number of fixes and
improvements of mine.

With the hierarchical RegId there are a lot of functions that are

The idea behind the simplification is that instead of having the regId,
telling which kind of register read/write/rename/lookup/etc. and then
the function panic_if'ing if the regId is not of the appropriate type,
we provide an interface that decides what kind of register to read
depending on the register type of the given regId.
