In Linux, the set_thread_area system call stores the address of the thread
local storage area into a field of the current thread_info structure. Later,
to access that value, the program uses the rdhwr instruction to read a
"hardware register" with index 29. The 64 bit MIPS manual, volume II, says
that index 29 is reserved for a future ABI extension and should cause a
"Reserved Instruction Exception". In Linux (and potentially other ISAs) that
exception is trapped and emulated to return the value stored by
set_thread_area as if that were actually stored by a physical register.
The tp_value address (as named in the Linux kernel) is ironically stored as a
control register so that it goes with a particular ThreadContext. Syscall
emulation will use that to emulate storing to the OS's thread info structure,
and rdhwr will emulate faulting and returning that value from software by
returning the value itself, as if it was in hardware. In other words, we fake
faking the register in SE mode. In an FS mode implementation it should
work as specified in the manual.
Inorder expects eaComp to be visible through StaticInst object. This mirrors a similar change
to ALPHA... Needs to be done for SPARC and whatever other ISAs want to use InOrderCPU
I did some of the flags and assertions wrong. Thanks to Brad Beckmann
for pointing this out. I should have run the opt regressions instead
of the fast. I also screwed up some of the logical functions in the Flags
class.
Even though we're not incorrect about operator precedence, let's add
some parens in some particularly confusing places to placate GCC 4.3
so that we don't have to turn the warning off. Agreed that this is a
bit of a pain for those users who get the order of operations correct,
but it is likely to prevent bugs in certain cases.
Also some bug fixes in MIPS ISA uncovered by g++ warnings
(Python string compares don't work in C++!).

Loops of header files including each other was causing compilation to fail. To fix it, a bunch of unnecessary includes were removed, and the code in isa_traits.cc which brought a bunch of include chains together was broken up and put in proximity to the header files that delcared it.

succesfully but there are some minor quirks to iron out. Who would've known a DELAY SLOT introduces that much complexity?! arrgh!
Anyways, a lot of this stuff had to do with my project at MIPS and me needing to know how I was going to get this working for the MIPS
ISA. So I figured I would try to touch it up and throw it in here (I hate to introduce non-completely working components... )
