We need to add a reference when an object is put on the C++ queue, and remove
a reference when the object is removed from the queue. This was not happening
before and caused a memory problem.
The major thrust of this change is to limit the amount of code
duplication surrounding the code for these functions. This code also
adds two new message types called info and hack. Info is meant to be
less harsh than warn so people don't get confused and start thinking
that the simulator is broken. Hack is a way for people to add runtime
messages indicating that the simulator just executed a code "hack"
that should probably be fixed. The benefit of knowing about these
code hacks is that it will let people know what sorts of inaccuracies
or potential bugs might be entering their experiments. Finally, I've
added some flags to turn on and off these message types so command
line options can change them.
If the same dictionary option is seen in several options, those
dictionaries are composed. If you define the same dictionary key in
multiple options, the system flags an error.
Also, clean up the jobfile code so that it is more debuggable.
Make them easier to express by only having the cxx_type parameter which
has the full namespace name, and drop the cxx_namespace thing.
Add support for multiple levels of namespace.
Since the early days of M5, an event needed to know which event queue
it was on, and that data was required at the time of construction of
the event object. In the future parallelized M5, this sort of
requirement does not work well since the proper event queue will not
always be known at the time of construction of an event. Now, events
are created, and the EventQueue itself has the schedule function,
e.g. eventq->schedule(event, when). To simplify the syntax, I created
a class called EventManager which holds a pointer to an EventQueue and
provides the schedule interface that is a proxy for the EventQueue.
The intent is that objects that frequently schedule events can be
derived from EventManager and then they have the schedule interface.
SimObject and Port are examples of objects that will become
EventManagers. The end result is that any SimObject can just call
schedule(event, when) and it will just call that SimObject's
eventq->schedule function. Of course, some objects may have more than
one EventQueue, so this interface might not be perfect for those, but
they should be relatively few.
I've done a few things here. First, I invoke the script a little bit
differently so that pdb doesn't get confused. Second, I've stored the
actual filename in the module's __file__ so that pdb can find the
source file on your machine.
When invoking several copies of m5 on the same machine at the same
time, there can be a race for TCP ports for the terminal connections
or remote gdb. Expose a function to disable those ports, and have the
regression scripts disable them. There are some SimObjects that have
no other function than to be used with ports (NativeTrace and
EtherTap), so they will panic if the ports are disabled.
This should allow m5 to be more easily embedded into other simulators.
The m5 binary adds a simple main function which then calls into the m5
libarary to start the simulation. In order to make this work
correctly, it was necessary embed python code directly into the
library instead of the zipfile hack. This is because you can't just
append the zipfile to the end of a library the way you can a binary.
As a result, Python files that are part of the m5 simulator are now
compile, marshalled, compressed, and then inserted into the library's
data section with a certain symbol name. Additionally, a new Importer
was needed to allow python to get at the embedded python code.
Small additional changes include:
- Get rid of the PYTHONHOME stuff since I don't think anyone ever used
it, and it just confuses things. Easy enough to add back if I'm wrong.
- Create a few new functions that are key to initializing and running
the simulator: initSignals, initM5Python, m5Main.
The original code for creating libm5 was inspired by a patch Michael
Adler, though the code here was done by me.
I decided that separating some of the scons code into generate.py was
just a bad idea because it caused the dependency system to get all
messed up. If separation is the right way to go in the future, we
should probably use the sconscript mechanism, not the mechanism that I
just removed.
they're all in the same place. This also involves having just one
jobfile.py and moving it into the utils directory to avoid
duplication. Lots of improvements to the utility as well.

The process has two passes. On the first pass, all subdirs
of the root of the tree are searched for SConsopts files.
These files contain any command line options that ought to be
added for a particular subdirectory. On the second pass,
all subdirs of the src directory are searched for SConscript
files. These files describe how to build any given subdirectory.
I have added a Source() function. Any file (relative to the
