This patch adds limited multithreading support in syscall-emulation
mode, by using the clone system call. The clone system call works
for Alpha, SPARC and x86, and multithreaded applications run
correctly in Alpha and SPARC.
Basically merge it in with Halted.
Also had to get rid of a few other functions that
called ThreadContext::deallocate(), including:
- InOrderCPU's setThreadRescheduleCondition.
- ThreadContext::exit(). This function was there to avoid terminating
simulation when one thread out of a multi-thread workload exits, but we
need to find a better (non-cpu-centric) way.
Bogus calls to ChunkGenerator with negative size were triggering
a new assertion that was added there.
Also did a little renaming and cleanup in the process.
the primary identifier for a hardware context should be contextId(). The
concept of threads within a CPU remains, in the form of threadId() because
sometimes you need to know which context within a cpu to manipulate.
SE. Process still keeps track of the tc's it owns, but registration occurs
with the System, this eases the way for system-wide context Ids based on
registration.
across the subclasses. generally make it so that member data is _cpuId and
accessor functions are cpuId(). The ID val comes from the python (default -1 if
none provided), and if it is -1, the index of cpuList will be given. this has
passed util/regress quick and se.py -n4 and fs.py -n4 as well as standard
switch.
Make them easier to express by only having the cxx_type parameter which
has the full namespace name, and drop the cxx_namespace thing.
Add support for multiple levels of namespace.
Even though we're not incorrect about operator precedence, let's add
some parens in some particularly confusing places to placate GCC 4.3
so that we don't have to turn the warning off. Agreed that this is a
bit of a pain for those users who get the order of operations correct,
but it is likely to prevent bugs in certain cases.
We should always refer to the specific ISA in that arch directory.
This is especially necessary if we're ever going to make it to the
point where we actually have heterogeneous systems.
This appears to work, but I don't want to commit it until it gets tested a lot more.
I haven't deleted the functionality in this patch that will come later, but one question
is how to enforce encourage objects that call getVirtPort() to not cache the virtual port
since if the CPU changes out from under them it will be worse than useless. Perhaps a null
function like delVirtPort() is still useful in that case.
Also some bug fixes in MIPS ISA uncovered by g++ warnings
(Python string compares don't work in C++!).

SimObjects not yet updated:
- Process and subclasses
- BaseCPU and subclasses
The SimObject(const std::string &name) constructor was removed. Subclasses
that still rely on that behavior must call the parent initializer as

In O3, a nop is used to carry faults down the pipeline that didn't originate
from an instruction. If the instruction doesn't do anything, that is just
returns NoFault, but doesn't have IsNop set, the NoFault will overwrite the
fault that's being sent down and nothing will happen.

Each "strand" may need to have a private copy of this state, but I couldn't
find anywhere in the spec that said that after looking briefly.
This prevents writes to the thread context in o3 which was causing the
pipeline to be flushed and stopping any forward progress. The other ASI
accessible state will probably need to be accessed differently if/when we get
O3 full system up and running.

The initial stack frame for x86 is now substantially more correct. The fixes made here can be back ported to SPARC and possible the other ISAs as well. The auxiliary vector types were moved to the LiveProcess base class because they are independent of ISA. Some of the types may only apply to Linux, though, so they may have to be moved.

Code was assuming that all argument registers followed in order from ArgumentReg0. There is now an ArgumentReg array which is indexed to find the right index. There is a constant, NumArgumentRegs, which can be used to protect against using an invalid ArgumentReg.

automatic. The point is that now a subdirectory can be added
to the build process just by creating a SConscript file in it.
The process has two passes. On the first pass, all subdirs
of the root of the tree are searched for SConsopts files.
These files contain any command line options that ought to be
added for a particular subdirectory. On the second pass,
all subdirs of the src directory are searched for SConscript
files. These files describe how to build any given subdirectory.
I have added a Source() function. Any file (relative to the
directory in which the SConscript resides) passed to that
function is added to the build. Clean up everything to take
advantage of Source().
