The style refactor change (style: Refactor the style checker as a
Python package) moved region.py from src/python/m5/util/ to
util/style/. The SConscript update accidentally got lost in that
commit. This commit removes region.py from src/python/SConscript.

The old style guide used to mandate 78 characters as the maximum line
length to accommodate traditional diffs on 80-column terminals. This
is an uncommon use case and it has therefore been decided (see email
thread on gem5-dev [1]) that a maximum length of 79-characters makes
more sense.

The current style checker script, hgstyle.py, assumes that it is being
run from Mercurial. This means that it depends on the Mercurial Python
libraries, which aren't necessarily present if using git. This
changeset adds a new style checker script, style.py, that has
been designed to be run from the command line.
The script has support for detecting which revision control system is
used and is able to query both git and Mercurial for changes. This
enables the script to operate on modified regions and/or all of the
modified files in the repository.

Refactor the TLB and page table walker test interface to use a dynamic
registration mechanism. Instead of patching a couple of empty methods
to wire up a TLB tester, this change allows such testers to register
themselves using the setTestInterface() method.
Libraries are loaded into the process address space using the
mmap system call. Conveniently, this happens to be a good
time to update the process symbol table with the library's
incoming symbols so we handle the table update from within the
system call.
This works just like an application's normal symbols. The only
difference between a dynamic library and a main executable is
when the symbol table update occurs. The symbol table update for
an executable happens at program load time and is finished before
the process ever begins executing. Since dynamic linking happens
at runtime, the symbol loading happens after the library is
first loaded into the process address space. The library binary
is examined at this time for a symbol section and that section
is parsed for symbol types with specific bindings (global,
local, weak). Subsequently, these symbols are added to the table
and are available for use by gem5 for things like trace
generation.
Checkpointing should work just as it did previously. The address
space (and therefore the library) will be recorded and the symbol
table will be entirely recorded. (It's not possible to do anything
clever like checkpoint a program and then load the program back
with different libraries with LD_LIBRARY_PATH, because the
library becomes part of the address space after being loaded.)
The mmapGrowsDown() method was a static method on the OperatingSystem
class (and derived classes), which worked OK for the templated syscall
emulation methods, but made it hard to access elsewhere. This patch
moves the method to be a virtual function on the LiveProcess method,
where it can be overridden for specific platforms (for now, Alpha).
This patch also changes the value of mmapGrowsDown() from being false
by default and true only on X86Linux32 to being true by default and
false only on Alpha, which seems closer to reality (though in reality
most people use ASLR and this doesn't really matter anymore).
In the process, also got rid of the unused mmap_start field on
LiveProcess and OperatingSystem mmapGrowsUp variable.
For O3, which has a stat that counts reg reads, there is an additional
reg read per mmap() call since there's an arg we no longer ignore.
Otherwise, stats should not be affected.
The structure definition only had the open system call flag set in mind when
it was named, so we rename it here with the intention of using it to define
additional tables to translate flags for other system calls in the future.
Breaks the debug output from system calls into two levels: Base and Verbose.
A macro is added specifically for system calls which allows developers to
easily add new debug messages in a consistent manner. The macro also contains
a field to print thread IDs along with the CPU ID.
The cache queue reserve is there as an overflow to give us enough
headroom based on when we block the cache, and how many transactions
we may already have accepted before actually blocking. The previous
values were probably chosen to be "big enough", when we actually know
that we check the MSHRs after every single allocation, and for the
write buffers we know that we implicitly may need one entry for every
outstanding MSHR.

mem: Adjust cache queue reserve to more conservative values
The cache queue reserve is there as an overflow to give us enough
headroom based on when we block the cache, and how many transactions
we may already have accepted before actually blocking. The previous
values were probably chosen to be "big enough", when we actually know
that we check the MSHRs after every single allocation, and for the
write buffers we know that we implicitly may need one entry for every
outstanding MSHR.
Update stats to match current behaviour. As a result of the earlier
conflict check we are seeing a few prefetch requests being ignored
before being sent as upward snoops.
This patch breaks out the cache write buffer into a separate class,
without affecting any stats. The goal of the patch is to avoid
encumbering the much-simpler write queue with the complex MSHR
handling. In a follow on patch this simplification allows us to
implement write combining.
The WriteQueue gets its own class, but shares a common ancestor, the
generic Queue, with the MSHRQueue.
It's apparently not widely known that our scons scripts allow you to
put the build directory wherever you want; not only does it not have
to be immediately under the root of your repo, it doesn't even have
to be underneath the root at all. (For example, sometimes it's useful
to build on a local disk if your repo is on a slow NFS mount.)
I point this out because this functionality has been broken for close
to two years but no one seems to have noticed yet. This patch fixes
an assumption that crept in in changeset be0e1724eb39 (May 09 2014)
that the build dir would be immediately under the top level of the
repo, preventing builds anywhere else.

summary: gpu: fix bugs with MemFence, Flat Instrs and Resource utilization
This patch adds a config script that broadly replicates the behaviour
of lat_mem_rd. The test is based on traffic generators, and as such we
simply randomise addresses in increasingly large ranges, and play them
back using the trace functionality of the traffic generator.
The test script is accompanied by a post-processing and visualisation
script. At the moment no configurability is added to tweak the memory
hierarchy, but a follow on patch could easily extend the
functionality.
Adding voltage function which returns the current voltage
for a given clocked object. It's handy for power models and
similar stuff that need to retrieve voltage. Function
frequency() is already there, so I see no reason for not having
this one too.
fu_pool and inst_queue were using -1 for "no such FU" and -2 for "all those
FUs are busy at the moment" when requesting for a FU and replying. This
patch introduces new constants NoCapableFU and NoFreeFU respectively.
In addition, the condition (idx == -2 || idx != -1) is equivalent to
(idx != -1), so this patch also simplifies that.

We can't/shouldn't use KVM after a fork since the child and parent
probably point to the same VM. Knowing the exact effects of this is
hard, but they are likely to be messy. We also disconnect the
performance counters attached to the guest. This works around what
seems to be a kernel bug where spurious SIGIOs get delivered to the
forked child process.
