Bobby R. Bruce 91350dc4d5 util,tests: Added compiler test script
This script runs a series of compilations on gem5. The following
compilers are tested:

clang-9
clang-8
clang-7
clang-6
clang-5
clang-4
clang-3.9
gcc-9
gcc-8
gcc-7
gcc-6
gcc-5
gcc-4.8 (to be dropped soon:
         https://gem5.atlassian.net/browse/GEM5-218)

They are tested by building the following build targets:

ARM
ARM_MESI_Three_Level
Garnet_standalone
GCN3_X86
MIPS
NULL_MESI_Two_Level
NULL_MOESI_CMP_directory
NULL_MOESI_CMP_token
NULL_MOESI_hammer
POWER
RISCV
SPARC
X86
X86_MOESI_AMD_BASE

For each, ".opt" and ".fast" compiler build settings are tested.

clang-9 and gcc-9 are tested against all targets with each build
setting. For the remaining compilers, a random build target is
chosen. After the script has run, the output of the tests can be
found in "compile-test-out".

Docker is required to run this script.

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/about, and for
more information about building the simulator and getting started
please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation and
http://www.gem5.org/documentation/learning_gem5/introduction.

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/documentation/general_docs/building
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 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/documentation/general_docs/building for more details and
options.

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.

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

Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
