This patch adds the ability for a host-OS process external to gem5
to access the backing store via POSIX shared memory.
The new param shared_backstore of the System object is the filename
of the shared memory (i.e., the first argument to shm_open()).

Adds support for device memories in the system and RubySystem classes.
Devices may register memory ranges with the system class and packets
which originate from the device MasterID will update the device memory
in Ruby. In RubySystem functional access is updated to keep the packets
within the Ruby network they originated from.

Previously, with HSAIL, we were guaranteed by the HSA specification
that the GPU will never issue unaligned accesses. However, now
that we are directly running GCN this is no longer true.
Accordingly, this commit adds support for unaligned accesses.
Moreover, to reduce the replication of nearly identical
code for the different request types, I also added new helper
functions that are called by all the different memory request
producing instruction types in op_encodings.hh.
Adding support for unaligned instructions requires changing
the statusBitVector used to track the status of the memory
requests for each lane from a bit per lane to an int per lane.
This is necessary because an unaligned access may span multiple
cache lines. In the worst case, each lane may span multiple
cache lines. There are corresponding changes in the files that
use the statusBitVector.

There was an add-hoc check added to getAddrRanges, but the other methods
would just segfault if they tried to talk to their peers. This change
wraps all the calls in try blocks and catches the exception which the
peer will throw if it's the default and the port is not actually
connected to anything.

The XBar uses the concept of Layers to model throughput and
instantiates one Layer per master. As it forwards a packet to and from
master, the corresponding Layer is marked as occupied for a number of
cycles. Requests/responses to/from a master are blocked while the
corresponding Layer is occupied. Previously the delay would be
calculated based on the formula 1 + size / width, which assumes that
the Layer is always occupied for 1 cycle while processing the packet
header. This changes makes the header latency a parameter which
defaults to 1.

The System class has a few different arrays of values which each
correspond to a thread of execution based on their position. This
change collects them together into a single class to make managing them
easier and less error prone. It also collects methods for manipulating
those threads as an API for that class.
This class acts as a collection point for thread based state which the
System class can look into to get at all its state. It also acts as an
interface for interacting with threads for other classes. This forces
external consumers to use the API instead of accessing the individual
arrays which improves consistency.

Instead of calling into object files after the fact and asking them to
put symbols into a target symbol table, this change makes object files
fill in a symbol table themselves at construction. Then, that table can
be retrieved and used to fill in aggregate tables, masked, moved,
and/or filtered to have only one type of symbol binding.
This simplifies the symbol management API of the object file types
significantly, and makes it easier to deal with symbol tables alongside
binaries in the FS workload classes.

When the write buffer is full, it still has space to store an additional
number of entries (reserve) equal to the number of MSHRs so that if any
of them requires a writeback this can be handled. Even if the slave port
is blocked, a prefetcher can generate new MSHR entries that may lead to
additional writebacks and eventually saturate the reserve space. This is
solved by checking if the cache is blocked for accesses before
prefetching data.

makeLineAddress function uses m_block_size_bits to create

cache, directory, and memory controller interleaving,
and it can be larger than the cache line size.
To generate addresses that can align with the cache line

makeLineAddress is created to specify bits that need to
be masked.

Without this fix `error: call to function 'operator<<' that is neither
visible in the template definition nor found by argument-dependent
loopup` is thrown when compiling HSAIL_X86 using a clang compiler (at
`base/cprintf_formats.hhi:139`).
This error is due to a "<<" operator in a template declared prior to its
definition in the code. The operator is used in
`base/cprintf_formats.hh`, included in `base/cprintf.hh`, and defined in
`mem/ruby/common/BoolVec.hh`. Therefore, for clang to compile without
error, `mem/ruby/common/BoolVec.hh` must be included before
`base/cprintf.hh` when generating the
`mem/ruby/protocol/RegionBuffer_Controller.cc` in
`mem/slicc/symbols/StateMachine.py`.
Due to the gem5 style-checker, an overly-verbose solution was required
to permit this patch to be committed to the codebase.

Add support for multiple networks per RubySystem. This is done by
introducing local IDs to each network and translating from a global ID
passed around through Ruby and SLICC code. The local IDs represents the
NodeID of a MachineType in the network and are ordered the same way
that NodeIDs are ordered using MachineType_base_number. If there are
not multiple networks in a RubySystem the local and global IDs are the
same value.
This is useful in cases where multiple isolated networks are needed to
support devices with Ruby caches which do not interact with other
networks. For example, a dGPU device will have a cache hierarchy that
will not interact with the CPU cache hierachy.

This singleton object is used thruoughout the simulator. There is

To keep that functionality for the moment, this change adds an "empty"

table is empty, or if someone already populated it.

AbstractController sends requests using a QueuedMasterPort which has an
implicit buffer which is unbounded. Remove this by changing the port to
a MasterPort and implement a retry mechanism for AbstractController.
Although the request remains in the MessageBuffer if a retry is needed,
the additional retry logic optimizes serviceMemoryQueue slightly and
prevents the DRAMCtrl retry stats from being incorrect due to multiple
calls to sendTimingReq.

This patch properly sets the access permissions in all controllers.
'Busy' was used for all transient states, which is incorrect in lots of
cases when we still hold a valid copy of the line and are able to handle
a functional read.
In the L2 controller these states were split to differentiate the access
permissions:
IFGXX -> IFGXX, IFGXXD
IGMO -> IGMO, IGMOU
IGMIOF -> IGMIOF, IGMIOFD
Same for the dir. controller:
IS -> IS, IS_M
MM -> MM, MM_M
The dir. controllers also has the states WBI/WBS for lines that have
been queued for a writeback. In these states we hold the data in the TBE
for replying to functional reads until the memory acks the write and we
move to I or S.
Other minor changes includes updated debug messages and asserts.

This patch fixes some issues in the directory controller regarding DMA
handling:
1) Junk data messages were being sent immediately in response to DMA reads
for a line in the S state (one or more sharers, clean). Now, data is
fetched from memory directly and forwarded to the device. Some existing
transitions for handling GETS requests are reused, since it's essentially
the same behavior (except we don't update the list of sharers for DMAs)
2) DMA writes for lines in the I or S states would always overwrite the
whole line. We now check if it's only a partial line write, in which case
we fetch the line from memory, update it, and writeback.
3) Fixed incorrect DMA msg size
Some existing functions were renamed for clarity.
