Implementation of C-Pack, as described in "C-Pack: A High-
Performance Microprocessor Cache Compression Algorithm".
C-Pack uses pattern matching schemes to detect and compress
frequently appearing data patterns. As in the original paper,
it divides the input in 32-bit words, and uses 6 patterns to
match with its dictionary.
For the patterns, each letter represents a byte: Z is a null
byte, M is a dictionary match, X is a new value. The patterns
are ZZZZ, XXXX, MMMM, MMXX, ZZZX, MMMX.

Reset the fault status always before translation is initiated in
pushRequest() in the LSQ. This avoids the problem when a strictly
ordered load needs to be re-executed multiple times. If the
translation is delayed at one of those attempts then the
internal panicFault (from the previous execution attempt) can get
fired at commit.

Renamed member variables to comply with general naming
conventional outside of the ruby folder so that the
filters can be moved out.
Moved code to base to reduce code duplication.
Renamed the private get_index functions to hash, to make their
functionality explicit.

Most of the index based functions were not implemented, and a
user is more likely to be interested in checking the filter
contents based on an address than an index.
As a side effect, the Bulk's hash function became unused, and
according to the paper permute() was doing more than just
permuting, so it was renamed.

In some cases, the point where you create a Coroutine is not the same as
where you want to start running it (and want it to switch back to). This
leads to the unnecessary overhead of switching in and out of the
Coroutine. This change adds an optional boolean argument to the
constructor for the Coroutine class to allow for overriding the default
behavior of running the Coroutine upon creation, which in specific cases
can be used to avoid the unnecessary overhead and improve simulator
performance.

Normally, a translation will start via translateTiming/functional
which will check if the miscRegs have been updated and if so,
will update the TLB state accordingly. However, in a 2 stage
system, if there is a hit in stage 1, the resulting IPA will be
sent to the S2-TLB for translation via a getTE() function call
(via the stage2_lookup object). This will cause the state of the
S2-TLB to be out of sync.

In large configs the tooltip may be greater then the maximum line
size graphviz supports when parsing the dot file (typically 16k).
Adding '/' causes graphviz to break the string in multiple lines
while parsing and works around this limitation.

This is trying to fix the bug that arises when a memory exception
is generated during a fp flavoured load (A memory load targeting
a SIMD & FP register).
With the previous template a fault was not stopping the register
value to be modified (wrong)
if (fault == NoFault) {
fault = readMemAtomic(xc, traceData, EA, Mem, memAccessFlags);
%(memacc_code)s;
}
if (fault == NoFault) {
%(op_wb)s;
}
The patch introduces a Load64FpExecute template which is moving the
register write (memacc_code) just before the op_wb

AddrRange does not attempt to merge interleaved address ranges if it
has only one of the ranges.
This is needed to allow XBars to accept request targeting only one
part of a interleaved address range. A use case for this would be
modeling distributed LLCs in which a XBar is used solely to
encapsulate the snoop filter of a single LLC slice.

Previously an AddrRange could express interleaving using a number of
consecutive bits and in additional optionally a second number of
consecutive bits. The two sets of consecutive bits would be xored and
matched against a value to determine if an address is in the
AddrRange. For example:
sel[0] = a[8] ^ a[12]
sel[1] = a[9] ^ a[13]
where sel == intlvMatch
This change extends AddrRange to allow more flexible interleavings
with an abritary number of set of bits which do not need be
consecutive. For example:
sel[0] = a[8] ^ a[11] ^ a[13]
sel[1] = a[15] ^ a[17] ^ a[19]
where sel == intlvMatch

The flags may be passed as:
scons CCFLAGS_EXTRA='-Wno-error -pedantic' \
LDFLAGS_EXTRA='-g -g' build/<arch>/gem5.opt
The initial motivation for this commit is to help disable warning that
have become errors while bisecting.
scons orders the flags by Append call order, and ideally these flags
should be added last to override the others, since the last GCC flags
take precedence. However I haven't found a simple way to put them at
the very end.
