Add initial support for creating an ARM system with a Ruby-based
memory system. This support is currently experimental and limited to
the new VExpress_GEM5_V1 platform.

When using a Ruby memory system, the Ruby configuration scripts expect
to get a list of DMA ports to create the necessary DMA sequencers. Add
support in the utility functions that wire up devices to append DMA
ports to a list instead of connecting them to the IO bus. These
functions are currently only used by the VExpress_GEM5_V1 platform.

There are cases where we want to put boot ROMs on the PIO bus. Ruby
currently doesn't support functional accesses to such memories since
functional accesses are always assumed to go to physical memory. Add
the required support for routing functional accesses to the PIO bus.

The boot ROM shouldn't be used as a memory by the kernel. Memories
have a flag to indicate this which is set for some platforms. Update
all platforms to consistently set this flag to indicate that the boot
ROM shouldn't be reported as normal memory.

An ARM big.LITTLE system consists of two cpu clusters: the big
CPUs are typically complex out-of-order cores and the little
CPUs are simpler in-order ones. The fs_bigLITTLE.py script
can run a full system simulation with various number of big
and little cores and cache hierarchy. The commit also includes
two example device tree files for booting Linux on the
bigLITTLE system.

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.

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

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.

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.
