452217817f Clock: Move the clock and related functions to ClockedObject
This patch moves the clock of the CPU, bus, and numerous devices to
the new class ClockedObject, that sits in between the SimObject and
MemObject in the class hierarchy. Although there are currently a fair
amount of MemObjects that do not make use of the clock, they
potentially should do so, e.g. the caches should at some point have
the same clock as the CPU, potentially with a 1:n ratio. This patch
does not introduce any new clock objects or object hierarchies
(clusters, clock domains etc), but is still a step in the direction of
having a more structured approach clock domains.

The most contentious part of this patch is the serialisation of clocks
that some of the modules (but not all) did previously. This
serialisation should not be needed as the clock is set through the
parameters even when restoring from the checkpoint. In other words,
the state is "stored" in the Python code that creates the modules.

The nextCycle methods are also simplified and the clock phase
parameter of the CPU is removed (this could be part of a clock object
once they are introduced).

4ebefc145a Checkpoint: Fix broken checkpointing functionality
This patch fixes the checkpointing by ensuring that the directory is
passer to the scriptCheckpoints function, and that the num_checkpoints
is not used before it is initialised.

649e377937 Alpha System: override startup(), instead of loadState()
Alpha System was overriding loadState() function to setup some functional
event. The system tried to read/write to memory before the Ruby memory had
unserialized the state. With this patch, Alpha System overrides the
startup() function, and sets up functional events in this function. This
works because startup() is called after Ruby memory system has unserialized
the memory state.

0b3897fc90 O3,ARM: fix some problems with drain/switchout functionality and add Drain DPRINTFs
This patch fixes some problems with the drain/switchout functionality
for the O3 cpu and for the ARM ISA and adds some useful debug print
statements.

This is an incremental fix as there are still a few bugs/mem leaks with the
switchout code. Particularly when switching from an O3CPU to a
TimingSimpleCPU. However, when switching from O3 to O3 cores with the ARM ISA
I haven't encountered any more assertion failures; now the kernel will
typically panic inside of simulation.

5a648f2074 configs: add option for repeatedly switching back-and-forth between cpu types.
This patch adds a --repeat-switch option that will enable repeat core
switching at a user defined period (set with --switch-freq option).
currently, a switch can only occur between like CPU types. inorder CPU
switching is not supported.

*note*
this patch simply allows a config that will perform repeat switching, it
does not fix drain/switchout functionality. if you run with repeat switching
you will hit assertion failures and/or your workload with hang or die.

11411cc9c7 Ruby: Clean up topology changes
This patch moves instantiateTopology into Ruby.py and removes the
mem/ruby/network/topologies directory. It also adds some extra inheritance to
the topologies to clean up some issues in the existing topologies.

f4b424cd53 SETranslatingPortProxy: fix bug in tryReadString()

d55115936e syscall emulation: Clean up ioctl handling, and implement for x86.
Enable different whitelists for different OS/arch combinations,
since some use the generic Linux definitions only, and others
use definitions inherited from earlier Unix flavors on those
architectures.

Also update x86 function pointers so ioctl is no longer
unimplemented on that platform.

This patch is a revised version of Vince Weaver's earlier patch.

62425b7a07 Simulation.py: move code related to checkpointing to functions
This patch moves the code related to checkpointing from the run() function to
several different functions. The aim is to make the code more manageable. No
functionality changes are expected, but since the code is kind of unruly, it
is possible that some change might have creeped in.

d81a51a4c8 Config: change how cpu class is set
This changes the way in which the cpu class while restoring from a checkpoint
is set. Earlier it was assumed if cpu type with which to restore is not same
as the cpu type with the which to run the simulation, then the checkpoint
should be restored with the atomic cpu. This assumption is being dropped. The
checkpoint can now be restored with any cpu type, the default being atomic cpu.

8133f2460f checker: make checker cpu id match its host's cpu id
when using the checker i ran into problems where an instruction reading the
cpu id register failed because the ids did not match, and hence, the result
of the instruction did not match. this patch ensures that the ids match so
this instruction does not fail. this problem only seemed to manifest itself
when multiple cores were in the system, either multi-core, or extra switched-
out cores present in the system.

f00cba34eb Mem: Make SimpleMemory single ported
This patch changes the simple memory to have a single slave port
rather than a vector port. The simple memory makes no attempts at
modelling the contention between multiple ports, and any such
multiplexing and demultiplexing could be done in a bus (or crossbar)
outside the memory controller. This scenario also matches with the
ongoing work on a SimpleDRAM model, which will be a single-ported
single-channel controller that can be used in conjunction with a bus
(or crossbar) to create a multi-port multi-channel controller.

There are only very few regressions that make use of the vector port,
and these are all for functional accesses only. To facilitate these
cases, memtest and memtest-ruby have been updated to also have a
"functional" bus to perform the (de)multiplexing of the functional
memory accesses.
