Currently, the open system call implementation in SE mode
treats /sys/ as a special path that is opened using a
special open handler. The ROC runtime, however, reads
several files in /sys/ that are supported via path
redirection. Here we remove /sys/ from the special files
so that the necessary files may be read via path
redirection.

The current marshal binary is in $BUILD/python/ directory which makes
the dynamic linker fail to find shared libraries with rpath information
when the marshal is executing. Moving $BUILD/python/marshal to
$BUILD/marshal solves this problem.
This is because the marshal binary is built with the same flags as gem5
binary. And if one adds rpath information with add_local_rpath() in some
SConscripts, the marshal binary will also link to those shared libraries
and have the same rpath information. So it must be in the same
directory as gem5 binary such that the dynamic linker could find those
shared libraries with the rpath information.

This patch adds a meta-prefetcher that enables gem5's cache models to
connect to multiple prefetchers. Sub-prefetchers still use the
probes-based interface and training can be controlled
independently. However, when the cache requests a prefetch packet, the
adaptor traverses the priority list of prefetchers and uses the first
prefetcher that is able to generate a prefetch.
Kudos to Mitch Hayenga for the original version of this patch.

This gets rid of the big mass of #if-s around headers and around the
code which creates an object file.
As a nice side bonus, this also means that in addition to supporting
multiple OS/arch combinations simultaneously, the object file loader
could support multiple ISAs simultaneously as well, since each could
load and set up its object file loaders indepedently and without the
base process classes knowledge/involvement.

ARMv8.2 16-bit versions have not yet been implemented, but a placeholders
were created for them.
Refactor the nearby decoding tree to closely match the ARM spec A32 decode
table.
That piece of the tree can also be called from thumb which decodes it in
the same way, although the thumb decode table has a different terminology
The old code didn't match neither A32 or T32 terminologies, so it is
better to at least match one of them to help verify correctness.

Removed the icache/dcache hit latency parameters from the Sequencer.
They were replaced by the mandatory queue enqueue latency that is now
defined by the top-level cache controller. By default, the latency is
defined by the mandatory_queue_latency parameter. When the latency
depends on specific protocol states or on the request type, the protocol
may override the mandatoryQueueLatency function.

Updating the message counter and enqueue times when adding blocked
messages back to the queue does not make a lot of sense since these
messages are not new arrivals.
More importantly, this may lead to starvation. See the scenario below:
1) Request A for a blocked line X arrives
2) A is handled; X is blocked so A is stalled
3) Request B for X arrives; Reponse for X arrives
4) Response is handled; X unblocked; A added back to the request queue
5) B is handled ahead of A (since A's arrival was updated);
X may become blocked again
If new requests keep comming for X, A may will be stalled forever.

When a message triggers a transition that has actions which allocate
TBEs, the generated code automatically includes a check for the TBETable
size before executing any action. If the table is full, the transition
returns TransitionResult_ResourceStall and no more messages from the
buffer are handled (until the next cycle).
This behavior may lead to deadlocks in the MOESI_CMP_directory protocol
since events triggered by the response queue may allocate TBEs (e.g.
L2 replacements triggered by the response queue). If the table is full,
the queue is stalled preventing other responses from freeing TBEs.
This patch fixes this by handling WRITEBACK_DIRTY_DATA/CLEAN_DATA messages
as requests and WB_ACK/WB_NACK as responses. All controllers are changed
to work with the new types. With this fix, responses are always
handled first in all controllers, and no response triggers TBE
allocations.

loads/stores that can disable accesses to individual bytes within the
target address range. In addition, this changeset extends the code to
crack memory accesses across most CPU models (TimingSimpleCPU still
TBD), so that arbitrarily wide memory accesses are supported. These
changes are required for supporting ISAs with wide vectors.

Using recycle in the L2 controllers to put messages back into the buffer
may lead to starvation when there are many L1 requests for the same line.
This can easily trigger the deadlock detection mechanism in configurations
with many cores (16+). Replacing recycle by stall_and_wait for L1
requests avoids this issue. wakeUpBuffers calls were added to all
transitions from transient to stable states.

Previously all atomic writebacks concerned a single block,
therefore, when a block was evicted, no other block would be
pending eviction. With sector tags (and compression),
however, a single replacement can generate many evictions.
This can cause problems, since a writeback that evicts a block
may evict blocks in the lower cache. If one of these conflict
with one of the blocks pending eviction in the higher level, the
snoop must inform it to the lower level. Since atomic mode does
not have a writebuffer, this kind of conflict wouldn't be noticed.
Therefore, instead of evicting multiple blocks at once, we
do it one by one.

When a block in compressed form is overwriten, it may change
its size. If the new compressed size is bigger, and the total
size becomes bigger than the block size, one or more blocks
will have to be evicted. This is called data expansion, or
fat writes.
This change assumes that a first level cache cannot have a
compressor, since otherwise data expansion should have been
handled for atomic operations and writes. As such, data
expansions should only be seen on writebacks. As writebacks
are forwarded to the next level when failed, there should
be no data expansions when servicing misses either.
This patch adds the functionality to handle data expansions
by evicting the co-allocated blocks to make room for an
expanded block.

Add compression statistics to the compressors. It tracks
the number of blocks that can fit into a certain power
of two size, and the number of decompressions.
For example, if a block is compressed to 100 bits, it will
belong to the 128-bits compression size. Although it could
also fit bigger sizes, they are not taken into account for
the stats (i.e., the 100-bit compression will fit only the
128-bits size, not 256 or higher).
We save stats for compressions that fail (i.e., compressed
size is bigger than original cache line size).
