Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable
all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has
the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem
and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address
maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is
used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong
to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data
port in a port proxy.
The following replacements are made:
FunctionalPort > PortProxy
TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy
VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy

There are two lines in O3CPU.py that set the dcache and icache
tgts_per_mshr to 20, ignoring any pre-configured value of tgts_per_mshr.
This patch removes these hardcoded lines from O3CPU.py and sets the default
L1 cache mshr targets to 20.

This patch updates reference statistics for the regression tests. This
update was necessitated by a recent change in behavior of some instructions
in the x86 architecture.
This patch replaces RUBY with PROTOCOL in all the SConscript files as
the environment variable that decides whether or not certain components
of the simulator are compiled.
This patch drops RUBY as a compile time option. Instead the PROTOCOL option
is used to figure out whether or not to build Ruby. If the specified protocol
is 'None', then Ruby is not compiled.
This patch updates the regression outputs for Ruby memtest. This was
required because of the changes carried out by the addition of functional
access support to Ruby.
This patch rpovides functional access support in Ruby. Currently only
the M5Port of RubyPort supports functional accesses. The support for
functional through the PioPort will be added as a separate patch.
A few prior changesets have changed the gem5 output in a way that wont cause
errors but may be confusing for someone trying to debug the regressions. Ones that I caught
were:
- no more "warn: <hash address"
- typo in the ALPHA Prefetch unimplemented warning
Additionaly, the last updated stats changes rearrange the ordering of the stats output even though
they are still correct stats (gem5 is smart enough to detect this). All the regressions pass
w/the same stats even though it looks like they are being changed.
