90dd745ff6 se.py Ruby: Connect TLB walker ports
In order to ensure correct functionality of switch CPUs, the TLB walker ports
must be connected to the Ruby system in x86 simulation.

This fixes x86 assertion failures that the TLB walker ports are not connected
during the CPU switch process.

0b45ae5df3 se.py: support specifying multiple programs via command line
This patch allows for specifying multiple programs via command line. It also
adds an option for specifying whether to use of SMT. But SMT does not work for
the o3 cpu as of now.

11b725c19d ruby: changes how Topologies are created
Instead of just passing a list of controllers to the makeTopology function
in src/mem/ruby/network/topologies/<Topo>.py we pass in a function pointer
which knows how to make the topology, possibly with some extra state set
in the configs/ruby/<protocol>.py file. Thus, we can move all of the files
from network/topologies to configs/topologies. A new class BaseTopology
is added which all topologies in configs/topologies must inheirit from and
follow its API.

0d32940711 Bus: Split the bus into a non-coherent and coherent bus
This patch introduces a class hierarchy of buses, a non-coherent one,
and a coherent one, splitting the existing bus functionality. By doing
so it also enables further specialisation of the two types of buses.

A non-coherent bus connects a number of non-snooping masters and
slaves, and routes the request and response packets based on the
address. The request packets issued by the master connected to a
non-coherent bus could still snoop in caches attached to a coherent
bus, as is the case with the I/O bus and memory bus in most system
configurations. No snoops will, however, reach any master on the
non-coherent bus itself. The non-coherent bus can be used as a
template for modelling PCI, PCIe, and non-coherent AMBA and OCP buses,
and is typically used for the I/O buses.

A coherent bus connects a number of (potentially) snooping masters and
slaves, and routes the request and response packets based on the
address, and also forwards all requests to the snoopers and deals with
the snoop responses. The coherent bus can be used as a template for
modelling QPI, HyperTransport, ACE and coherent OCP buses, and is
typically used for the L1-to-L2 buses and as the main system
interconnect.

The configuration scripts are updated to use a NoncoherentBus for all
peripheral and I/O buses.

A bit of minor tidying up has also been done.

b00949d88b MEM: Enable multiple distributed generalized memories
This patch removes the assumption on having on single instance of
PhysicalMemory, and enables a distributed memory where the individual
memories in the system are each responsible for a single contiguous
address range.

All memories inherit from an AbstractMemory that encompasses the basic
behaviuor of a random access memory, and provides untimed access
methods. What was previously called PhysicalMemory is now
SimpleMemory, and a subclass of AbstractMemory. All future types of
memory controllers should inherit from AbstractMemory.

To enable e.g. the atomic CPU and RubyPort to access the now
distributed memory, the system has a wrapper class, called
PhysicalMemory that is aware of all the memories in the system and
their associated address ranges. This class thus acts as an
infinitely-fast bus and performs address decoding for these "shortcut"
accesses. Each memory can specify that it should not be part of the
global address map (used e.g. by the functional memories by some
testers). Moreover, each memory can be configured to be reported to
the OS configuration table, useful for populating ATAG structures, and
any potential ACPI tables.

Checkpointing support currently assumes that all memories have the
same size and organisation when creating and resuming from the
checkpoint. A future patch will enable a more flexible
re-organisation.

a8e6adb0b1 Atomic: Remove the physmem_port and access memory directly
This patch removes the physmem_port from the Atomic CPU and instead
uses the system pointer to access the physmem when using the fastmem
option. The system already keeps track of the physmem and the valid
memory address ranges, and with this patch we merely make use of that
existing functionality. As a result of this change, the overloaded
getMasterPort in the Atomic CPU can be removed, thus unifying the CPUs.

00978170f3 MEM: Fix master/slave ports in Ruby and non-regression scripts

5a9a743cfc MEM: Introduce the master/slave port roles in the Python classes
This patch classifies all ports in Python as either Master or Slave
and enforces a binding of master to slave. Conceptually, a master (such
as a CPU or DMA port) issues requests, and receives responses, and
conversely, a slave (such as a memory or a PIO device) receives
requests and sends back responses. Currently there is no
differentiation between coherent and non-coherent masters and slaves.

The classification as master/slave also involves splitting the dual
role port of the bus into a master and slave port and updating all the
system assembly scripts to use the appropriate port. Similarly, the
interrupt devices have to have their int_port split into a master and
slave port. The intdev and its children have minimal changes to
facilitate the extra port.

Note that this patch does not enforce any port typing in the C++
world, it merely ensures that the Python objects have a notion of the
port roles and are connected in an appropriate manner. This check is
carried when two ports are connected, e.g. bus.master =
memory.port. The following patches will make use of the
classifications and specialise the C++ ports into masters and slaves.

f85286b3de MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural ports
Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable
all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has
the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem
and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address
maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is
used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong
to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data
port in a port proxy.

The following replacements are made:
FunctionalPort      > PortProxy
TranslatingPort     > SETranslatingPortProxy
VirtualPort         > FSTranslatingPortProxy

8a652f9871 config: tweak ruby configs to clean up hierarchy
Re-enabling implicit parenting (see previous patch) causes current
Ruby config scripts to create some strange hierarchies and generate
several warnings.  This patch makes three general changes to address
these issues.

1. The order of object creation in the ruby config files makes the L1
   caches children of the sequencer rather than the controller; these
   config ciles are rewritten to assign the L1 caches to the
   controller first.

2. The assignment of the sequencer list to system.ruby.cpu_ruby_ports
   causes the sequencers to be children of system.ruby, generating
   warnings because they are already parented to their respective
   controllers.  Changing this attribute to _cpu_ruby_ports fixes this
   because the leading underscore means this is now treated as a plain
   Python attribute rather than a child assignment. As a result, the
   configuration hierarchy changes such that, e.g.,
   system.ruby.cpu_ruby_ports0 becomes system.l1_cntrl0.sequencer.

3. In the topology classes, the routers become children of some random
   internal link node rather than direct children of the topology.
   The topology classes are rewritten to assign the routers to the
   topology object first.

1d3228481f cache: Make caches sharing aware and add occupancy stats.
On the config end, if a shared L2 is created for the system, it is
parameterized to have n sharers as defined by option.num_cpus. In addition to
making the cache sharing aware so that discriminating tag policies can make use
of context_ids to make decisions, I added an occupancy AverageStat and an occ %
stat to each cache so that you could know which contexts are occupying how much
cache on average, both in terms of blocks and percentage. Note that since
devices have context_id -1, having an array of occ stats that correspond to
each context_id will break here, so in FS mode I add an extra bucket for device
blocks. This bucket is explicitly not added in SE mode in order to not only
avoid ugliness in the stats.txt file, but to avoid broken stats (some formulas
break when a bucket is 0).

5f42bfcd56 process: separate stderr from stdout
- Add the option of redirecting stderr to a file. With the old
behaviour, stderr would follow stdout if stdout was to a file, but
stderr went to the host stderr if stdout went to the host stdout.  The
new default maintains stdout and stderr going to the host.  Now the
two can specify different files, but they will share a file descriptor
if the name of the files is the same.
