Adrián Herrera Arcila 9e76e7a321 scons: fix protobuf action for imports
The current protoc_action generates declarations that impose the requirement
for .proto files to import from the BUILDDIR. This prevents .proto files to
import themselves relative to their own directory.

For example, if there are two files build/pkg/a.proto and build/pkg/b.proto,
and b.proto imports a.proto, it must do so as "import pkg/a.proto", as opposed
to "import a.proto"; otherwise, the generated declaration will give rise to a
compilation error.

This is a problem for EXTRAS where .proto files are gem5-independent, so
they cannot import from gem5's build directory. An example is
https://github.com/ARM-software/ATP-Engine

This commit changes the protoc_action so that declarations are generated
relative to the SOURCE directory. This enables .proto files to import
other .proto files within the same directory.

Note it is not possible to import other .proto files in different
directories, but support for it is not currently necessary.

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, 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 these tools.

Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons
build/<CONFIG>/gem5.opt' where CONFIG is one of the options in build_opts like
ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, X86, Garnet_standalone, etc. This will build an
optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) with the the specified
configuration. See http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building for
more details and options.

The main source tree includes these subdirectories:
   - build_opts: pre-made default configurations for gem5
   - build_tools: tools used internally by gem5's build process.
   - configs: example simulation configuration scripts
   - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5
   - include: include files for use in other programs
   - site_scons: modular components of the build system
   - 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 may need compiled system firmware, kernel
binaries and one or more disk images, depending on gem5's configuration and
what type of workload you're trying to run. Many of those resources can be
downloaded from http://resources.gem5.org, and/or from the git repository here:
https://gem5.googlesource.com/public/gem5-resources/

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

Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
