Gabe Black d64173549b base,sim: Move DTRACE into base/debug.hh.
All other considerations aside, DTRACE probably fits best in trace.hh
where it is now, but unfortunately that creates an awkward dependence
between that file and eventq.hh and eventq_impl.hh. DTRACE only depends
on flags in the Debug namespace and a universal macro TRACING_ON, so
even though it won't be alongside the things it's most logically
associated with, it will be alongside all of its dependencies.

An alternative would be to re-implement DTRACE in eventq_impl.hh which
wouldn't be too big of a problem because it's so simple, but it's
cleaner and less error prone to still keep a single definition.

Because base/trace.hh includes base/debug.hh, any consumers expecting to
find DTRACE in base/trace.hh will still get that definition, even though
it's no longer direct.

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.
