An email sent to gem5-users and gem5-dev asking if anyone was
still using EIO traces got no responses, so it seems like it's
not worth maintaining this any longer.
This patch changes the default behaviour of the SystemXBar, adding a
snoop filter. With the recent updates to the snoop filter allocation
behaviour this change no longer causes problems for the regressions
without caches.

There are cases where we need to ignore files with specific extensions
(e.g., when Mercurial litters the file system with patch
rejects). Implement this functionality using a helper class
(FileIgnoreList) that supports both regular expressions and basic
string comparisons.

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:
./tests/tests.py test `find build/ARM/tests/opt/ -name status.pickle`

The test base class already assumes that test cases consists of a run
stage and a verification stage. Reflect this in the results class to
make it possible to detect cases where a run was successful, but
didn't verify.

The traffic generator currently resolves relative trace paths relative
to gem5's current working directory. This can lead to surprising
results for relative paths where the expectation would normally be
that they are resolved relative to the configuration file. This
changeset implements config-relative trace file lookups. The old
behavior is kept as a fallback for configs that expect that behavior.

The traffic generator tests currently assume that they are run from

they are run using the new test framework.

Limit the test configs to Ruby-only configs when testing a Ruby target
that isn't MI_example. This avoids re-running configs that has already
been tested by the generic (non-Ruby) ISA target. This behavior was
the expected behavior prior to switching to the new test framework.

Rewrite the SCons script responsible for launching tests to use the
new test framework. The biggest visible change after this changeset is
that SCons no longer produces a "status" file in test build
directories. Instead, it creates a status.pickle file. That file can
be inspected using the new tests.py script. Another visible change is
that timed out tests are now reported as failed rather than a using a
separate summary message.
Since the pickle file will remain in the build directory after running
tests, it's now possible to convert the test results into other
formats. For example:
./tests/tests.py show --format junit -o junit.xml \
`find build/ -name status.pickle`
To better facilitate running outside of scons, there is now a set of
targets that generate test listings that can be used by the test
script. There are currently three targets, quick.list, long.list, and
all.list. For example:
scons build/ARM/tests/opt/all.list
for F in `cat build/ARM/tests/opt/all.list`; do
./tests/tests.py run build/ARM/gem5.opt $F
done

ClassicTest was incorrectly ignoring stats.txt when updating reference
statistics. This was caused by ignore rules being applied too
aggressively when listing reference files. This changeset splits the
ignore rules into two different lists: 1) diff_ignore_files that lists
the files that shouldn't be diff:ed using the normal diff tool, and 2)
ref_ignore_files which lists files that should be ignored by the test
system.

Disable the default snoop filter in the SystemXBar so that the
typical membus does not have a snoop filter by default. Instead,
add the snoop filter only when there are caches added to the system
(with the caches / l2cache options).
The underlying problem is that the snoop filter grows without
bounds (for now) if there are no caches to tell it that lines have
been evicted. This causes slow regression runs for all the atomic
regressions. This patch fixes this behaviour.

Implement gem5's test infrastructure as a Python module and a run
script that can be used without scons. The new implementation has
several features that were lacking from the previous test
infrastructure such as support for multiple output formats, automatic
runtime tracking, and better support for being run in a cluster
environment.
Tests consist of one or more steps (TestUnit). Units are run in two
stages, the first a run stage and then a verify stage. Units in the
verify stage are automatically skipped if any unit run stage wasn't
run. The library currently contains TestUnit implementations that run
gem5, diff stat files, and diff output files.
Existing tests are implemented by the ClassicTest class and "just
work". New tests can that don't rely on the old "run gem5 once and
diff output" strategy can be implemented by subclassing the Test base
class or ClassicTest.
Test results can be output in multiple formats. The module currently
supports JUnit, text (short and verbose), and Python's pickle
format. JUnit output allows CI systems to automatically get more
information about test failures. The pickled output contains all state
necessary to reconstruct a tests results object and is mainly intended
for the build system and CI systems.
Since many JUnit parsers parsers assume that test suite names look
like Java package names. We currently output path-like names with
slashes separating components. Test names are translated according to
these rules:
* '.' -> '-"
* '/' -> '.'
The test tool, tests.py, supports the following features:
* Test listing. Example: ./tests.py list arm/quick
* Running tests. Example:
./tests.py run -o output.pickle --format pickle \
../build/ARM/gem5.opt \
quick/se/00.hello/arm/linux/simple-timing
* Displaying pickled results. Example:
./tests.py show --format summary *.pickle

summary: gpu: fix bugs with MemFence, Flat Instrs and Resource utilization
Writes to locked memory addresses (LLSC) did not wake up the locking
CPU. This can lead to deadlocks on multi-core runs. In AtomicSimpleCPU,
recvAtomicSnoop was checking if the incoming packet was an invalidation
(isInvalidate) and only then handled a locked snoop. But, writes are
seen instead of invalidates when running without caches (fast-forward
configurations). As as simple fix, now handleLockedSnoop is also called
even if the incoming snoop packet are from writes.
Bug fix for check on protobuf file frequency being different than
global frequency.
The ASCII encoder script is also fixed, and the example trace used in
the regressions is updated.
