The behavior of WFI is to cause minor to cease evaluating
pipeline logic until an interrupt is observed, however
a user may wish to drain the system while a core is sleeping
due to a WFI. This patch makes WFI drain. If an actual
drain occurs during a WFI, the CPU is already drained and will
immediately be ready for swapping, checkpointing, etc. This
should not negatively impact performance as WFI instructions
are 'stream-changing' (treated like unpredicted branches), so
all remaining instructions are wrong-path and will be squashed
rapidly.

Make it so that getInterrupt *always* returns an interrupt if

This patch adds a total() function to the Vector2D

At the moment the SPARC FS machine configuration comes with a hardcoded
value for using the Solaris 10 disk image from the OpenSPARC tarball. The
--disk-image option is completely ignored for SPARC. This simple patch
modifies the behavior so that --disk-image option is both taken into
account and also required. This makes it possible to easily change SPARC FS
images without having to modify the configuration files.
This patch fixes a bug in etherswitch. When a packet gets inserted
in the output fifo, the txEvent has to always be reschedule,
not only when an event is already scheduled. This can raise
the assertion in the reschedule function.
Don't consult the TLB test interface for PA's returned by functional
translations by the AT instruction. We implement this by chaning the
ISA code to synthesize 0-length functional reads for the TLB lookup.
The TLB then bypasses the final PA check in the tester if the size is
zero.

The ELF loader currently has an assertion that checks if the size of a
loaded .text secion is non-zero. This is useful in the general case as
an empty text section normally indicates that there is something
strange with the ELF file. However, asserting isn't very useful. This
changeset converts the assert into a warning that tells the user that
something strange is happening.

Currently garnet will not run due to double statistic registration of new
stats in ClockedObject. This occurs because a temporary array named 'cls'
is being added as a child to garnet internal and external link SimObjects.
This patch simply renames the temporary array which prevents it from
being added as a child object and avoids the assertion that a statistic
was already registered.

Committed by Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com>
In this new hmc configuration we have used the existing components in gem5
mainly [SerialLink] [NoncoherentXbar]& [DRAMCtrl] to define 3 different
architecture for HMC.
Highlights
1- It explores 3 different HMC architectures
2- It creates 4-HMC crossbars and attaches 16 vault controllers with it.
This will connect vaults to serial links
3- From the previous version, HMCController with round robin funtionality
is being removed and all the serial links are being accessible directly
from user ports
4- Latency incorporated by HMCController (in previous version) is being
added to SerialLink

In previous versions of systemC-gem5 coupling statistics were not updated
for the systemc-gem5 simulation. systemC-gem5 simulation only need the
previously built config.ini file and normal gem5 simulation has to be run
once to generate config.ini file. Thus stats.txt inside the m5out folder is
redundant for systemC-gem5 simulation. A new stats file is now generated
with the all the statistics for systemC-gem5 simulation. This will also
resolve the stats issue in tlm-sysmtemC simulation.

This patch changes how the embedded swig code is loaded to ensure that
gem5 works with swig 3.0.9. For Python 2.7 and above, swig 3.0.9 now
relies on importlib, and actually looks in the appropriate packages,
even for the wrapped C code. However, the swig wrapper does not
explicitly place the module in the right package (it just calls
Py_InitModule), and we have to take explicit action to ensure that the
swig code can be loaded. This patch adds the information to the
generated wrappers and the appropriate calls to set the context as
part of the swig initialisation.
Previous versions of swig used to fall back on looking in the global
namespace for the wrappers (and still do for Python 2.6), but
technically things should not work without the functionality in this
patch.
Previously when we initialized the TLB we would allocate a number of
TLB entries which would be marked as valid. As a result the TLB
contained an entry which would be considered a valid entry for the 0
page.

Add a "test" command to tests.py that queries a test pickle file and
returns different exit codes depending on the outcome of the tests in
the file. The following exit codes can currently be returned:
* 0: All tests were successful or skipped.
* 1: General fault in the script such as incorrect parameters or
failing to parse a pickle file.
* 2: At least one test failed to run. This is what the summary
formatter usually shows as a 'FAILED'.
* 3: All tests ran correctly, but at least one failed to verify
its output. When displaying test output using the summary
formatter, such a test would show up as 'CHANGED'.
The command can be invoked like this:

This function is used to implement two PCEvents: DmesgDumpEvent and
KernelPanic event. The only difference between the two is that the
latter produces a gem5 panic instead of a warning in addition to
dumping the kernel log.

This patch adds some basic support for power models in gem5.
The power interface is defined so it can interact with thermal
models as well. It implements a simple power evaluator that
can be used for simple power models that express power in the
form of a math expression. These expressions can use stats
within the same SimObject (or down its hierarchy) and some
magic variables such as "temp" for temperature.
In future patches we will extend this functionality to allow
slightly more complex expressions.
The model allows it to be extended to use other kinds of models.
