Adds GPU_VIPER protocol related caches to stdlib components: CorePair
cache, TCP, SQC, TCC, Directory, and DMA controllers. Adds GPU related
components in a new components/devices/gpus/ directory. Adds prebuilt
GPU and CPU cache hierarchies, GPU and CPU network classes, and a board
overriding the X86Board to provide helper methods for disk image root,
the complex kernel parameter list, and method to provide functionality
to the current GPUFS scripts to load in applications and handle loading
the GPU driver.
The new GPU components can be used as follows:
- Create a GPU device *before* the CPU cache hierarchy is created.
- Add the GPU's CPU-side DMA controllers to the list of CPU cache
controllers.
- Use GPU device method to connect to an AbstractBoard.
Each GPU components has it's own RubySystem, PCI device ID, and address
ranges for VBIOS and legacy PCI BARs. Therefore, in theory, multiple
GPUs can be created. This requires PR #1453 .
An example of using this board is added to configs/example/gem5_library
under x86-mi300x-gpu.py. It is designed to work with the disk image,
kernel, and applications provided in the gem5-resources repository.
