96375409ea O3: Fixes fetch deadlock when the interrupt clears before CPU handles it.
When this condition occurs the cpu should restart the fetch stage to fetch from
the original execution path. Fault handling in the commit stage is cleaned up a
little bit so the control flow is simplier. Finally, if an instruction is being
used to carry a fault it isn't executed, so the fault propagates appropriately.

c82a8979a3 Change interface between coherence protocols and CacheMemory
The purpose of this patch is to change the way CacheMemory interfaces with
coherence protocols. Currently, whenever a cache controller (defined in the
protocol under consideration) needs to carry out any operation on a cache
block, it looks up the tag hash map and figures out whether or not the block
exists in the cache. In case it does exist, the operation is carried out
(which requires another lookup). As observed through profiling of different
protocols, multiple such lookups take place for a given cache block. It was
noted that the tag lookup takes anything from 10% to 20% of the simulation
time. In order to reduce this time, this patch is being posted.

I have to acknowledge that the many of the thoughts that went in to this
patch belong to Brad.

Changes to CacheMemory, TBETable and AbstractCacheEntry classes:
1. The lookup function belonging to CacheMemory class now returns a pointer
to a cache block entry, instead of a reference. The pointer is NULL in case
the block being looked up is not present in the cache. Similar change has
been carried out in the lookup function of the TBETable class.
2. Function for setting and getting access permission of a cache block have
been moved from CacheMemory class to AbstractCacheEntry class.
3. The allocate function in CacheMemory class now returns pointer to the
allocated cache entry.

Changes to SLICC:
1. Each action now has implicit variables - cache_entry and tbe. cache_entry,
if != NULL, must point to the cache entry for the address on which the action
is being carried out. Similarly, tbe should also point to the transaction
buffer entry of the address on which the action is being carried out.
2. If a cache entry or a transaction buffer entry is passed on as an
argument to a function, it is presumed that a pointer is being passed on.
3. The cache entry and the tbe pointers received __implicitly__ by the
actions, are passed __explicitly__ to the trigger function.
4. While performing an action, set/unset_cache_entry, set/unset_tbe are to
be used for setting / unsetting cache entry and tbe pointers respectively.
5. is_valid() and is_invalid() has been made available for testing whether
a given pointer 'is not NULL' and 'is NULL' respectively.
6. Local variables are now available, but they are assumed to be pointers
always.
7. It is now possible for an object of the derieved class to make calls to
a function defined in the interface.
8. An OOD token has been introduced in SLICC. It is same as the NULL token
used in C/C++. If you are wondering, OOD stands for Out Of Domain.
9. static_cast can now taken an optional parameter that asks for casting the
given variable to a pointer of the given type.
10. Functions can be annotated with 'return_by_pointer=yes' to return a
pointer.
11. StateMachine has two new variables, EntryType and TBEType. EntryType is
set to the type which inherits from 'AbstractCacheEntry'. There can only be
one such type in the machine. TBEType is set to the type for which 'TBE' is
used as the name.

All the protocols have been modified to conform with the new interface.

bec0103bb4 Regression Tests: Update the output for MESI_CMP_directory
This patch updates the output for regression tests that are carried out on
MESI_CMP_directory protocol. The changes made to the protocol in order to
remove the bugs present result in regression failure for the 60.rubytest.
Since the earlier protocol was incorrect, so we certainly cannot relay on the
earlier reference output. Hence, the update.

dc64732dee RefCount: Add a unit test for reference counting pointers.
This test exercises each of the functions in the reference counting pointer
implementation individually (except get()) and verifies they have some
minimially expected behavior. It also checks that reference counted objects
are freed when their usage count goes to 0 in some basic situations,
specifically a pointer being set to NULL and a pointer being deleted.

94807214c4 sim: clean up CountedDrainEvent slightly.

SimLoopExitEvent feasible.

d60c293bbc inorder: replace schedEvent() code with reschedule().
There were several copies of similar functions that looked
like they all replicated reschedule(), so I replaced them
with direct calls.  Keeping this separate from the previous
cset since there may be some subtle functional differences
if the code ever reschedules an event that is scheduled but
not squashed (though none were detected in the regressions).

214cc0fafc inorder: get rid of references to mainEventQueue.
Events need to be scheduled on the queue assigned
to the SimObject, not on the global queue (which
should be going away).
Also cleaned up a number of redundant expressions
that made the code unnecessarily verbose.

d650f4138e scons: show sources and targets when building, and colorize output.
I like the brevity of Ali's recent change, but the ambiguity of
sometimes showing the source and sometimes the target is a little
confusing.  This patch makes scons typically list all sources and
all targets for each action, with the common path prefix factored
out for brevity.  It's a little more verbose now but also more
informative.

Somehow Ali talked me into adding colors too, which is a whole
'nother story.

d36cc62c11 Ruby: Updates MOESI Hammer protocol
This patch changes the manner in which data is copied from L1 to L2 cache in
the implementation of the Hammer's cache coherence protocol. Earlier, data was
copied directly from one cache entry to another. This has been broken in to
two parts. First, the data is copied from the source cache entry to a
transaction buffer entry. Then, data is copied from the transaction buffer
entry to the destination cache entry.

This has been done to maintain the invariant - at any given instant, multiple
caches under a controller are exclusive with respect to each other.

c69d48f007 Make commenting on close namespace brackets consistent.
Ran all the source files through 'perl -pi' with this script:

s|\s*(};?\s*)?/\*\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*\*/(\s*})?|} // namespace $3|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*|} // namespace $2\n|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(\S+)\s*namespace\s*|} // namespace $1\n|;

Also did a little manual editing on some of the arch/*/isa_traits.hh files
and src/SConscript.

1a10ccc5e5 RefCount: Fix reference counting pointer == and != with a T* on the left.
These operators were expecting a const T& instead of a const T*, and were not
being picked up and used by gcc in the right places as a result. Apparently no
one used these operators before. A unit test which exposed these problems,
verified the solution, and checks other basic functionality is on the way.

Two functions in src/mem/ruby/system/PerfectCacheMemory.hh, tryCacheAccess()
