This update includes the changes to whole-line writes, the refinement
of Read to ReadClean and ReadShared, the introduction of CleanEvict
for snoop-filter tracking, and updates to the DRAM command scheduler
for bank-group-aware scheduling.
Needless to say, almost every regression is affected.
A recent changeset of mine (http://repo.gem5.org/gem5/rev/4cfe55719da5)
inadvertently fixed a bug in the Minor CPU model which caused it to treat
software prefetches as regular loads. Prior to this changeset, Minor
did an ad-hoc generation of memory commands that left out the PF check;
because it now uses the common code that the other CPU models use,
it generates prefetches properly. These stat changes reflect the fact
that the Minor model now issues SoftPFReqs.
Changes due to speculative execution of an unaligned PC, introduction
of TLB stats, changes and re-work of the prefetcher, and the
introduction of rank-wise refresh in the DRAM controller.
This patch bumps the stats to reflect the addition of the snoop filter
and snoop stats, the change from bus to crossbar, and the updates to
the ARM regressions that are now using a different CPU and cache
configuration. Lastly, some minor changes are expected due to the
activation cleanup of the CPUs.
