Three changes below:
1. The m_stall_time was declared as statistics::Average, but
statistics::Average uses AvgStor as storage and this works as per-tick
average stat. In the case of m_stall_time, Scalar should be used to get
the calculation right.
2. The function used to get an enqueue time was changed since the
getTime() returns the time when the message was created.
3. Record the stall time only when the message is really dequeued
from the buffer (stall time is not evaluated when the message is moved
to stall map).

The `get_simstat` function in `src/python/m5/stats/gem5stats.py` was
returning an error when a non-Root Simobject was passed:
```
AttributeError: object 'PyTrafficGen' has no attribute 'name'
At:
build/NULL_MESI_Two_Level/python/m5/SimObject.py(1430): __getattr__
build/NULL_MESI_Two_Level/python/m5/stats/gem5stats.py(279): get_simstat
```
The issue was an assumption that SimObjects have a field `name`. They
do not. To get a SimObject's name the `get_name()` function must be
used. This patch fixes this issue.
In addition to this fix, the documentation in this function has been
improved to state more clearly what can be passed and what shall be
returned. Previously it was somewhat unclear.

As noted here: https://gem5.atlassian.net/browse/GEM5-1133,
NVMInterface.py does not have a `controller()` function, which is used
by `configs/common/MemConfig.py` to obtain a memory controller for a
specific memory type selected. This patch adds a `controller()`
function to `NVNInterface.py` to avoid the reported error.
It should be noted that we do not enforce a rule that a memory type
must include a `controller()` function. `se.py`, and other scrips
that use `configs/common/MemConfigs.py`, should not rely on this
false assumption.

Because the python environment may already be up and running by the time
static initializers are run, specifically when gem5 is built as a
library and loaded with dlopen, we can't rely on all of the objects
declaring python initialization callbacks having been constructed by the
time the code which would execute them runs.
To address that problem, this change keeps track of whether the
initialization has already happened when a callback is installed, and if
so, runs the callback immediately.
The original implementation also had users install callbacks by
overriding a virtual function in the PythonInitFunc class, and then
statically allocating an instance of that subclass so its constructor
would be called at initialization time. Calling the function manually if
initialization has already happened won't work in that case, because you
can't call a virtual function from a constructor and get the behavior
you'd want.
Instead, this change makes the PythonInitFunc wrap the actual callback
which is outside of the structure itself. Because the callback is not a
virtual function of PythonInitFunc, we can call it in the constructor
without issue.
Also, the Callback type has to be a bare function pointer and not a
std::function<...> because the argument it takes is a pybind11::module_
reference. Pybind11 sets the visibility of all of its code to hidden to
improve binary size, but unfortunately that causes problems when
accepting one as an argument in a publically accessible lambda in g++.
clang doesn't raise a warning, but g++ does which breaks the build. We
could potentially disable this warning, but accepting a function pointer
instead works just as well, since captureless lambdas can be trivially
converted into function pointers, and they don't seem to upset g++.

The systemc testing framework is not used regularly, and had bit rot and
stopped working. This change updates it so that it runs again, and all
previously passing tests pass again.
These changes were mostly in the related SConscript now that top level
targets are built a little differently and that the gem5 shared library
is no longer stored in a special construction environment variable.
verify.py also needed to be updated since warn() and info() lines now
have file and line number information in them, throwing off pre diff
filtering of gem5 outputs.

Rather than make each ISA include boilerplate to ignore a
SyscallReturn's value when it's marked as suppressed or needing a retry,
put that code into the SyscallDesc::doSyscall method instead.
That has two benefits. First, it removes a decent amount of code
duplication which is nice from a maintenance perspective. Second, it
puts the SyscallDesc in charge of figuring out what to do once a system
call implementation finishes. That will let it schedule a retry of the
system call for instance, without worrying about what the ISA is doing
with the SyscallReturn behind its back.

This method depended on all of the EmbeddedPyBind objects having all
been constructed already so that it would have a complete list. This
would only be true if it was called after static intialization was
complete, which is not true if python is ready to go as soon as gem5

This change makes EmbeddedPyBind able to defer initialization of a
module more generically than before, so that they can wait for either
another module to be initiailized, or the _m5 package itself.

GCC11 introduces a new warning, free-nonheap-object, which would check
if the code potentially calls delete with a nonheap object. The
scheduler is a global object, and its events members fall to this case.
Here's a simplified example.

We think this is a false positive warning, since we set auto delete to
false in the event constructor. To avoid performance penalty, we want to
keep current implementation. As the result, we disable the warning in

For most system calls, it doesn't matter if the PC is advanced to the
instruction after the system call instruction before or after the system
call itself is invoked, because the system call itself doesn't interact
with it.
For some system calls however, specifically "clone" and "execve",
advancing the PC *after* the system call complicates things, because it
means the system call needs to set the PC to something that will equal
the desired value only *after* it's advanced.
By setting the PC *before* the system call, the system call can set the
PC to whatever it needs to. This means the new cloned context doesn't
need to advance the PC because it's already advanced, and execve doesn't
need to set NPC, it can leave the PC set to the correct value from the
entry point set during Process initialization.
