Update the MOESI_AMD_Base and GPU_VIPER configuration files with the new
full protocol-specific names for the controllers instead of the
deprecated names.
Note: If you have any files which use the `CntrlBase` base, you will
likely need to update the class names that you are inheriting from.

There are several parts to this PR to work towards #1349 .
(1) Make RubySystem::getBlockSizeBytes non-static by providing ways to
access the block size or passing the block size explicitly to classes.
The main changes are:
- DataBlocks must be explicitly allocated. A default ctor still exists
to avoid needing to heavily modify SLICC. The size can be set using a
realloc function, operator=, or copy ctor. This is handled completely
transparently meaning no protocol or config changes are required.
- WriteMask now requires block size to be set. This is also handled
transparently by modifying the SLICC parser to identify WriteMask
types and call setBlockSize().
- AbstractCacheEntry and TBE classes now require block size to be set.
This is handled transparently by modifying the SLICC parser to
identify these classes and call initBlockSize() which calls
setBlockSize() for any DataBlock or WriteMask.
- All AbstractControllers now have a pointer to RubySystem. This is
assigned in SLICC generated code and requires no changes to protocol
or configs.
- The Ruby Message class now requires block size in all constructors.
This is added to the argument list automatically by the SLICC parser.
(2) Relax dependence on common functions in
src/mem/ruby/common/Address.hh
so that RubySystem::getBlockSizeBits is no longer static. Many classes
already have a way to get block size from the previous commit, so they
simply multiple by 8 to get the number of bits. For handling SLICC and
reducing the number of changes, define makeCacheLine, getOffset, etc. in
RubyPort and AbstractController. The only protocol changes required are
to change any "RubySystem::foo()" calls with "m_ruby_system->foo()".
For classes which do not have a way to get access to block size but
still used makeLineAddress, getOffset, etc., the block size must be
passed to that class. This requires some changes to the SimObject
interface for two commonly used classes: DirectoryMemory and
RubyPrefecther, resulting in user-facing API changes
User-facing API changes:
- DirectoryMemory and RubyPrefetcher now require the cache line size as
a non-optional argument.
- RubySequencer SimObjects now require RubySystem as a non-optional
argument.
- TesterThread in the GPU ruby tester now requires the cache line size
as a non-optional argument.
(3) Removes static member variables in RubySystem which control
randomization, cooldown, and warmup. These are mostly used by the Ruby
Network. The network classes are modified to take these former static
variables as parameters which are passed to the corresponding method
(e.g., enqueue, delayHead, etc.) rather than needing a RubySystem object
at all.

(4) There are two major SLICC generated static methods:
getNumControllers()
on each cache controller which returns the number of controllers created
by the configs at run time and the functions which access this method,
which are MachineType_base_count and MachineType_base_number. These need
to be removed to create multiple RubySystem objects otherwise NetDest,
version value, and other objects are incorrect.
To remove the static requirement, MachineType_base_count and
MachineType_base_number are moved to RubySystem. Any class which needs
to call these methods must now have a pointer to a RubySystem. To enable
that, several changes are made:
- RubyRequest and Message now require a RubySystem pointer in the
constructor. The pointer is passed to fields in the Message class
which require a RubySystem pointer (e.g., NetDest). SLICC is modified
to do this automatically.
- SLICC structures may now optionally take an "implicit constructor"
which can be used to call a non-default constructor for locally
defined variables (e.g., temporary variables within SLICC actions). A
statement such as "NetDest bcast_dest;" in SLICC will implicitly
append a call to the NetDest constructor taking RubySystem, for
example.
- RubySystem gets passed to Ruby network objects (Network, Topology).
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.

Add support in Ruby to use all replacement policies in Classic.
Furthermore, if new replacement policies are added to the
Classic system, the Ruby system will recognize new policies
without any other changes in Ruby system. The following list
all the major changes:
* Make Ruby cache entries (AbstractCacheEntry) inherit from
Classic cache entries (ReplaceableEntry). By doing this,
replacement policies can use cache entries from Ruby caches.
AccessPermission and print function are moved from
AbstractEntry to AbstractCacheEntry, so AbstractEntry is no
longer needed.
* DirectoryMemory and all SLICC files are changed to use
AbstractCacheEntry as their cache entry interface. So do the
python files in mem/slicc/ast which check the entry
interface.
* "main='false'" argument is added to the protocol files where
the DirectoryEntry is defined. This change helps
differentiate DirectoryEntry from CacheEntry because they are
both the instances of AbstractCacheEntry now.
* Use BaseReplacementPolicy in Ruby caches instead of
AbstractReplacementPolicy so that Ruby caches will recognize
the replacement policies from Classic.
* Add getLastAccess() and useOccupancy() function to Classic
system so that Ruby caches can use them. Move lastTouchTick
to ReplacementData struct because it's needed by
getLastAccess() to return the correct value.
* Add a 2-dimensional array of ReplacementData in Ruby caches
to store information for different replacement policies. Note
that, unlike Classic caches, where policy information is
stored in cache entries, the policy information needs to be
stored in a new 2-dimensional array. This is due to Ruby
caches deleting the cache entry every time the corresponding
cache line get evicted.

This patch updates the FileSystemConfig so it works with more kinds of
config scripts (e.g., the Learning gem5 scripts).
There are 4 main changes:
- Added system as a parameter to the config_filesystem function so the
function can search the system for the number of CPUs instead of relying
on options from Options.py
- Instead of calling redirect_paths everywhere config_filesystem is
used, now it is implicitly called.
- Cleaned up the Ruby scripts a bit to remove redundant calls to
config_filesystem
- Added a config_filesystem call to the Ruby Learning gem5 script
(currently the only Learning gem5 script that requires it).
In the future, I think it would be better to move the config_filesystem
call into simulate.py, probably into the instantiate function. I tried to
use the per-CPU configuration parameters instead of options from
Options.py, but that's not possible until after the SimObject params
have been finalized in instantiate.

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.

Python 2.7 used to return lists for operations such as map and range,
this has changed in Python 3. To make the configs Python 3 compliant,
add explicit conversions from iterators to lists where needed, replace
xrange with range, and fix changes to exec syntax.
This change doesn't fix import paths since that might require us to
restructure the configs slightly.

Prior to this changeset the bootloader rom (instantiated as a
SimpleMemory) in ruby Arm systems was treated as an IO device and it
was fronted by a DMA controller. This changeset moves the bootloader
rom and adds it to the system as another memory with a dedicated
directory controller.

This patch moves the addition of network options into the Ruby module
to avoid the regressions all having to add it explicitly. Doing this
exposes an issue in our current config system though, namely the fact
that addtoPath is relative to the Python script being executed. Since
both example and regression scripts use the Ruby module we would end
up with two different (relative) paths being added. Instead we take a
first step at turning the config modules into Python packages, simply
by adding a __init__.py in the configs/ruby, configs/topologies and
configs/network subdirectories.
As a result, we can now add the top-level configs directory to the
Python search path, and then use the package names in the various
modules. The example scripts are also updated, and the messy
path-deducing variations in the scripts are unified.
