Giacomo Travaglini 4f728b7d6c dev-arm: Improper translation slot release in SMMUv3
The SMMUv3SlaveInterface is using the xlateSlotsRemaining to model a
limit on the number of translation requests it can receive from the
master device.

Patch

https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/19308/2

moved the resource acquire/release inside the SMMUTranslationProcess
constructor/destructor, for the sake of having a unique place for
calling the signalDrainDone.
While this is convenient, it breaks the original implementation,
which was freeing resources AFTER a translation has completed, but
BEFORE the final memory access (with the translated PA) is performed.
In other words the xlateSlotsRemaining is only modelling translation
slots and should be release once the PA gets produced.

The patch fixes this mismatch by restoring the resource release in
the right place (while keeping the acquire in the constructor)
and by adding a pendingMemAccess counter, which is keeping track
of a complete device memory request (translation + final access)
and will be used by the draining logic

This is the gem5 simulator.

The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org

A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/Introduction, and for
more information about building the simulator and getting started
please see http://www.gem5.org/Documentation and
http://www.gem5.org/Tutorials.

To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang,
Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4,
and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback
support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/Dependencies for more details
concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools.

Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons
build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ALPHA, ARM, NULL, MIPS,
POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5
binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture. See
http://www.gem5.org/Build_System for more details and options.

With the simulator built, have a look at
http://www.gem5.org/Running_gem5 for more information on how to use
gem5.

The basic source release includes these subdirectories:
   - configs: example simulation configuration scripts
   - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5
   - src: source code of the gem5 simulator
   - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems
   - tests: regression tests
   - util: useful utility programs and files

To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware
(console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk
images. Please see the gem5 download page for these items at
http://www.gem5.org/Download

If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org

Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
