db3a6e8e84 scons: Use Kconfig to configure gem5.
These are not yet consumed by anything, but convert all the settings
from SCons variables to Kconfig variables.

If you have existing SConsopts files which need to be converted, you
should take a look at KCONFIG.md to learn about how kconfig is used in
gem5. You should decide if any variables need to be available to C++ or
kconfig itself, and whether those are options which should be detected
automatically, or should be up to the user. Options which should be
measured automatically should still be in SConsopts files, while user
facing options should be added to new or existing Kconfig files.

Generally, make sure you're storing c++/kconfig visible options in
env['CONF'][...]. Also remove references to sticky_vars since persistent
options should now be handled with kconfig, and export_vars since
everything in env['CONF'] is now exported automatically.

Switch SCons/gem5 to use Kconfig for configuration, except EXTRAS which
is still a sticky SCons variable. This is necessary because EXTRAS also
controls what config options exist. If it came from Kconfig itself, then
there would be a circular dependency. This dependency could
theoretically be handled by reparsing the Kconfig when EXTRAS
directories were added or removed, but that would be complicated, and
isn't supported by kconfiglib. It wouldn't be worth the significant
effort it would take to add it, just to use Kconfig more purely.

e6c0ba97db scons: Put all config variables in an env['CONF'] sub-dict.
This makes what are configuration and what are internal SCons variables
explicit and separate, and makes it unnecessary to call out what
variables to export to C++.

These variables will also be plumbed into and out of kconfiglib in later
changes.

9313294efe misc: Remove AMD license addition
Remove the line "For use for simulation and test purposes only" in files
were AMD is the only copyright holder listed in the header. This happens
to be the case for all files where this line exists, removing it
completely from gem5.

1c233ee9d2 scons: Add sim_object and enums arguments to SimObject().
This will explicitly declare what SimObject and Enum types need to be set
up in C++, which will make importing all the SimObject modules during
the setup phase of SCons uneccessary.

391322ff9b cpu,configs: Add DMA thread to Ruby GPU tester
Add a DMA thread tester to the Ruby GPU tester to test the DMA state
machine in the protocol. Currently creates a dummy DMA device to pass
through Ruby.py and scans for the DMA sequencers due to opaqueness of
Ruby.py.

DMA atomics not yet supported as there is no protocol that implements
atomic transitions in the DMA state machine file.

Example run command:
build/GCN3_X86/gem5.opt configs/example/ruby_gpu_random_test.py \
    --test-length=1000

2b0ab1f48e cpu: Rename GpuThread in gpu_ruby_test tester
The GpuThread class will be used as an abstract class for any thread
type (CPU, GPU, DMA) therefore changing to a more appropriate name.
