It's possible to bridge together the memory interconnect of two
systems, either as parallel peers, or one nested inside the other. Each
System will have its own set of RequestorIDs, and using an ID from one
System inside the other can lead to a number of different problems.
This change adds a new SimObject called SysBridge which connects two
Systems interconnect together. The object allocates a requestor ID in
each system, and for all PacketPtrs passing through it, the requestor
ID from the target system is installed in the associated Request. On
the way back, either inline or in a split, delayed response, the
original RequestorID is restored by reinstalling the original Request
object.
