A lot of objects seem to request no-op power transitions which
currently results in large amounts of warnings. These warnings are
benign and risk hiding more serious warnings. Make the warning a
warn_once to prevent console flooding.

This patch makes thermal models use the power figures
calculated by power models. Since there is a circular
dependency between power and thermal (and thermal was
pushed before) this patch closes that loop.

This patch adds some basic support for power models in gem5.
The power interface is defined so it can interact with thermal
models as well. It implements a simple power evaluator that
can be used for simple power models that express power in the
form of a math expression. These expressions can use stats
within the same SimObject (or down its hierarchy) and some
magic variables such as "temp" for temperature.
In future patches we will extend this functionality to allow
slightly more complex expressions.
The model allows it to be extended to use other kinds of models.

This implements SwapReq for Ruby memory.
A SwapReq should be treated like a write, except that the response
packet contains the overwritten data.
Note that, in particular, the conditional checking for isStore/isLoad
needs to be reversed, as a SwapReq is both.
In particular, when EL0 is in AArch32 but EL1 is AArch64, AArch64
memory translation must be used. This is essential for typical
AArch64/32 interworking use cases.
The traffic generator tests currently assume that they are run from
the root of the source directory. This sometimes breaks tests when
they are run using 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

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.

We currently check the current state instead of the state of the

interprocessing since EL0 in aarch32 would report its fault status
using the aarch32 registers even if EL1 is in aarch64. Fix this to
report the fault using the format of the target EL.

This patch fixes a memory leak where deferred snoop packets never got
deallocated. On the call to MSHR::handleSnoop these snoops were
treated as if a response will be sent, as the MSHR was
pendingModified. Consequently, a copy of the packet was created and
added to the MSHR targets. However, an preceeding target to the same
MSHR, originally from a CPU, was serviced before the snoop, and caused
the block to be invalidated. This happens for ReadExReq and
UpgradeReq.
Note that the original snoop will receive a response, just not from
the cache in question, but instead from the cache upstream that issued
the ReadExReq or UpgradeReq.

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
