d1965af220 X86: Move address based decode caching in front of the predecoder.
The predecoder in x86 does a lot of work, most of which can be skipped if the
decoder cache is put in front of it.

a83e74b37a ARM: Keep a copy of the fpscr len and stride fields in the decoder.
Avoid reading them every instruction, and also eliminate the last use of the
thread context in the decoders.

3026a116ba arm: set uopSet_uop as conditional or unconditional control
uopSet_uop is microop instruction that has the IsControl flags set, but the
IsCondControl or IsUncondControl flags seems not to be set, neither in
the construction nor where the microop is used. This patch adds the the
flags in the constructor of the instruction (MicroUopSetPCCPSR).

9b72a0f627 ruby: change slicc to allow for constructor args
The patch adds support to slicc for recognizing arguments that should be
passed to the constructor of a class. I did not like the fact that an explicit
check was being carried on the type 'TBETable' to figure out the arguments to
be passed to the constructor.
The patch also moves some of the member variables that are declared for all
the controllers to the base class AbstractController.

93e283abb3 ruby: add a prefetcher
This patch adds a prefetcher for the ruby memory system. The prefetcher
is based on a prefetcher implemented by others (well, I don't know
who wrote the original). The prefetcher does stride-based prefetching,
both unit and non-unit. It obseves the misses in the cache and trains on
these. After the training period is over, the prefetcher starts issuing
prefetch requests to the controller.

3dc7e4f496 TournamentBP: Fix some bugs with table sizes and counters
globalHistoryBits, globalPredictorSize, and choicePredictorSize are decoupled.
globalHistoryBits controls how much history is kept, global and choice
predictor sizes control how much of that history is used when accessing
predictor tables. This way, global and choice predictors can actually be
different sizes, and it is no longer possible to walk off the predictor arrays
and cause a seg fault.

There are now individual thresholds for choice, global, and local saturating
counters, so that taken/not taken decisions are correct even when the
predictors' counters' sizes are different.

The interface for localPredictorSize has been removed from TournamentBP because
the value can be calculated from localHistoryBits.

1492ab066d ruby: bug in functionalRead, revert recent changes
Recent changes to functionalRead() in the memory system was not correct.
The change allowed for returning data from the first message found in
the buffers of the memory system. This is not correct since it is possible
that a timing message has data from an older state of the block.

The changes are being reverted.

c4b36901d0 mem: Fix DRAM draining to ensure write queue is empty
This patch fixes the draining of the SimpleDRAM controller model. The
controller performs buffering of writes and normally there is no need
to ever empty the write buffer (if you have a fast on-chip memory,
then use it). The patch adds checks to ensure the write buffer is
drained when the controller is asked to do so.

8cd475d58e ruby: reset and dump stats along with reset of the system
This patch adds support to ruby so that the statistics maintained by ruby
are reset/dumped when the statistics for the rest of the system are
reset/dumped. For resetting the statistics, ruby now provides the
resetStats() function that a sim object can provide. As a consequence, the
clearStats() function has been removed from RubySystem. For dumping stats,
Ruby now adds a callback event to the dumpStatsQueue. The exit callback that
ruby used to add earlier is being removed.

ddd6af414c mem: Add support for writing back and flushing caches
This patch adds support for the following optional drain methods in
the classical memory system's cache model:

memWriteback() - Write back all dirty cache lines to memory using
functional accesses.

memInvalidate() - Invalidate all cache lines. Dirty cache lines
are lost unless a writeback is requested.

Since memWriteback() is called when checkpointing systems, this patch
adds support for checkpointing systems with caches. The serialization
code now checks whether there are any dirty lines in the cache. If
there are dirty lines in the cache, the checkpoint is flagged as bad
and a warning is printed.

050f24c796 sim: Add drain methods to request additional cleanup operations
This patch adds the following two methods to the Drainable base class:

memWriteback() - Write back all dirty cache lines to memory using
functional accesses.

memInvalidate() - Invalidate memory system buffers. Dirty data
won't be written back.

Specifying calling memWriteback() after draining will allow us to
checkpoint systems with caches. memInvalidate() can be used to drop
memory system buffers in preparation for switching to an accelerated
CPU model that bypasses the gem5 memory system (e.g., hardware
virtualized CPUs).

Note: This patch only adds the methods to Drainable, the code for
flushing the TLB and the cache is committed separately.

changeToAtomic and changeToTiming.

b81a977e6a sim: Move the draining interface into a separate base class
This patch moves the draining interface from SimObject to a separate
class that can be used by any object needing draining. However,
objects not visible to the Python code (i.e., objects not deriving
from SimObject) still depend on their parents informing them when to
drain. This patch also gets rid of the CountedDrainEvent (which isn't
really an event) and replaces it with a DrainManager.

df02047d5a dev: Fix ethernet device inheritance structure
The Python wrappers and the C++ should have the same object
structure. If this is not the case, bad things will happen when the
SWIG wrappers cast between an object and any of its base classes. This
was not the case for NSGigE and Sinic devices. This patch makes NSGigE
and Sinic inherit from the new EtherDevBase class, which in turn
inherits from EtherDevice. As a bonus, this removes some duplicated
statistics from the Sinic device.

c0ab52799c sim: Include object header files in SWIG interfaces
When casting objects in the generated SWIG interfaces, SWIG uses
classical C-style casts ( (Foo *)bar; ). In some cases, this can
degenerate into the equivalent of a reinterpret_cast (mainly if only a
forward declaration of the type is available). This usually works for
most compilers, but it is known to break if multiple inheritance is
used anywhere in the object hierarchy.

This patch introduces the cxx_header attribute to Python SimObject
definitions, which should be used to specify a header to include in
the SWIG interface. The header should include the declaration of the
wrapped object. We currently don't enforce header the use of the
header attribute, but a warning will be generated for objects that do
not use it.
