- global tracking of legitimate param types in
separate dict keeps us from having to import
objects in config.py, which gets rid of nasty
circular dependence
- use __all__ in config.py and restrict imports
from mpy_importer to reduce m5 namespace pollution
python/m5/__init__.py:
Try to limit namespace pollution by only importing
what's needed from mpy_importer.
Explicitly set up legal parameter types rather than
relying on eval().
python/m5/config.py:
Use empty ParamType base class to distinguish
types that are legitimate SimObject params.
Explicitly add these to global param_types map.
Rework CheckedInt and Range classes a little bit
to fit in better with the model.
No need to import objects here any longer.
Add __all__ list to specify subset of names that
get exported on 'from m5.config import *'.
