`get_runtime_isa()` has been deprecated for some time. It is a leftover piece of code from when gem5 was compiled to a single ISA and that ISA used to configure the simulated system to use that ISA. Since multi-ISA compilations are possible, `get_runtime_isa()` should not be used. Unless the gem5 binary is compiled to a single ISA, a failure will occur. The new proceedure for specify which ISA to use is by the setting of the correct `BaseCPU` implementation. E.g., `X86SimpleTimingCPU` of `ArmO3CPU`. This patch removes the remaining `get_runtime_isa()` instances and removes the function itself. The `SimpleCore` class has been updated to allow for it's CPU factory to return a class, needed by scripts in "configs/common". The deprecated functionality in the standard library, which allowed for the specifying of an ISA when setting up a processor and/or core has also been removed. Setting an ISA is now manditory. Fixes #216.
Multi ISA
These tests check that all our ISAs are both currrently supported within gem5.
To run these tests by themselves, you can run the following command in the tests directory:
./main.py run gem5/multi_isa --length=[length]
