1f6d5f8f84 mem: Rename Bus to XBar to better reflect its behaviour
This patch changes the name of the Bus classes to XBar to better
reflect the actual timing behaviour. The actual instances in the
config scripts are not renamed, and remain as e.g. iobus or membus.

As part of this renaming, the code has also been clean up slightly,
making use of range-based for loops and tidying up some comments. The
only changes outside the bus/crossbar code is due to the delay
variables in the packet.

a384525355 cpu: Update DRAM traffic gen
Add new DRAM_ROTATE mode to traffic generator.
This mode will generate DRAM traffic that rotates across
banks per rank, command types, and ranks per channel

The looping order is illustrated below:
for (ranks per channel)
   for (command types)
      for (banks per rank)
         // Generate DRAM Command Series

This patch also adds the read percentage as an input argument to the
DRAM sweep script. If the simulated read percentage is 0 or 100, the
middle for loop does not generate additional commands.  This loop is
used only when the read percentage is set to 50, in which case the
middle loop will toggle between read and write commands.

Modified sweep.py script, which generates DRAM traffic.
Added input arguments and support for new DRAM_ROTATE mode.
The script now has input arguments for:
 1) Read percentage
 2) Number of ranks
 3) Address mapping
 4) Traffic generator mode  (DRAM or DRAM_ROTATE)

The default values are:
 100% reads, 1 rank, RoRaBaCoCh address mapping, and DRAM traffic gen mode

For the DRAM traffic mode, added multi-rank support.

16262a8fc3 arm: Assume we have a kernel that supports pci devices
Change the default kernel for AArch64 and since it supports PCI devices
remove the hack that made it use CF. Unfortunately, there isn't really
a half-way here and we need to switch. Current users will get an error
message that the kernel isn't found and hopefully go download a new
kernel that supports PCI.

0756406739 mem: Add utility script to plot DRAM efficiency sweep
This patch adds basic functionality to quickly visualise the output
from the DRAM efficiency script. There are some unfortunate hacks
needed to communicate the needed information from one script to the
other, and we fall back on (ab)using the simout to do this.

As part of this patch we also trim the efficiency sweep to stop at 512
bytes as this should be sufficient for all forseeable DRAMs.

7a0d5aafe4 ruby: message buffers: significant changes
This patch is the final patch in a series of patches.  The aim of the series
is to make ruby more configurable than it was.  More specifically, the
connections between controllers are not at all possible (unless one is ready
to make significant changes to the coherence protocol).  Moreover the buffers
themselves are magically connected to the network inside the slicc code.
These connections are not part of the configuration file.

This patch makes changes so that these connections will now be made in the
python configuration files associated with the protocols.  This requires
each state machine to expose the message buffers it uses for input and output.
So, the patch makes these buffers configurable members of the machines.

The patch drops the slicc code that usd to connect these buffers to the
network.  Now these buffers are exposed to the python configuration system
as Master and Slave ports.  In the configuration files, any master port
can be connected any slave port.  The file pyobject.cc has been modified to
take care of allocating the actual message buffer.  This is inline with how
other port connections work.

01f792a367 ruby: Fixes clock domains in configuration files
This patch fixes scripts related to ruby by adding the ruby clock domain.
Now the L1 controllers and  the Sequencer shares the cpu clock domain,
while the rest of the components use the ruby clock domain.

Before this patch, running simulations with the cpu clock set at 2GHz or
1GHz will output the same time results and could distort power measurements.

0e8a90f06b cpu: `Minor' in-order CPU model
This patch contains a new CPU model named `Minor'. Minor models a four
stage in-order execution pipeline (fetch lines, decompose into
macroops, decompose macroops into microops, execute).

The model was developed to support the ARM ISA but should be fixable
to support all the remaining gem5 ISAs. It currently also works for
Alpha, and regressions are included for ARM and Alpha (including Linux
boot).

Documentation for the model can be found in src/doc/inside-minor.doxygen and
its internal operations can be visualised using the Minorview tool
utils/minorview.py.

Minor was designed to be fairly simple and not to engage in a lot of
instruction annotation. As such, it currently has very few gathered
stats and may lack other gem5 features.

Minor is faster than the o3 model. Sample results:

d6542d7758 configs: use SimpleMemory when using ruby in se mode
A recent changeset altered the default memory class to DRAMCtrl.  In se mode,
ruby uses the physical memory to check if a given address is within the bounds
of the physical memory.  SimpleMemory is enough for this.  Moreover,
SimpleMemory does not check whether it is connected or not, something which
DRAMCtrl does.

7d883df7e5 config: Add a DRAM efficiency-sweep script
This patch adds a configuration that simplifies evaluation of DRAM
controller configurations by automating a sweep of stride size and
bank parallelism. It works in a rather unconventional way, as it needs
to print the traffic generator stimuli based on the memory
organisation. Hence, it starts by configuring the memory, then it
prints a traffic-generator config file, and loads it.

The resulting stats have one period per data point, identified by the
stride size, and the number of banks being used.

8504b079b8 ruby: correct errors in changeset 4eec7bdde5b0
Couple of errors were discovered in 4eec7bdde5b0 which necessitated this patch.
Firstly, we create interrupt controllers in the se mode, but no piobus was
being created.  RubyPort, which earlier used to ignore range changes now
forwards those to the piobus.  The lack of piobus resulted in segmentation
fault.  This patch creates a piobus even in se mode.  It is not created only
when some tester is running.  Secondly,  I had missed out on modifying port
connections for other coherence protocols.

7e27860ef4 ruby: route all packets through ruby port
Currently, the interrupt controller in x86 is connected to the io bus
directly.  Therefore the packets between the io devices and the interrupt
controller do not go through ruby.  This patch changes ruby port so that
these packets arrive at the ruby port first, which then routes them to their
destination.  Note that the patch does not make these packets go through the
ruby network.  That would happen in a subsequent patch.

bf2f178f85 mem: Add a wrapped DRAMSim2 memory controller
This patch adds DRAMSim2 as a memory controller by wrapping the
external library and creating a sublass of AbstractMemory that bridges
between the semantics of gem5 and the DRAMSim2 interface.

The DRAMSim2 wrapper extracts the clock period from the config
file. There is no way of extracting this information from DRAMSim2
itself, so we simply read the same config file and get it from there.

To properly model the response queue, the wrapper keeps track of how
many transactions are in the actual controller, and how many are
stacking up waiting to be sent back as responses (in the wrapper). The
latter requires us to move away from the queued port and manage the
packets ourselves. This is due to DRAMSim2 not having any flow control
on the response path.

DRAMSim2 assumes that the transactions it is given are matching the
burst size of the choosen memory. The wrapper checks to ensure the
cache line size of the system matches the burst size of DRAMSim2 as
there are currently no provisions to split the system requests. In
theory we could allow a cache line size smaller than the burst size,
but that would lead to inefficient use of the DRAM, so for not we
fatal also in this case.

a212844f67 config, x86: move kernel specification from tests to FSConfig.py
For some reason, the default x86 kernel is specified in
tests/configs/x86_generic.py and not in configs/common/FSConfig.py,
where the kernels for all the other ISAs are.  This means that
running configs/example/fs.py for x86 fails because no kernel
is specified.  Moving the specification over fixes this problem.

There is another problem that this uncovers, which is that going
past the init stage (i.e., past where the regression test stops)
fails because the fsck test on the disk device fails, but that's
a separate issue.

f5b52a265a ruby: mesi: remove owner and sharer fields from directory tags
The directory controller should not have the sharer field since there is
only one level 2 cache. Anyway the field was not in use.  The owner field
was being used to track the l2 cache version (in case of distributed l2) that
has the cache block under consideration.  The information is not required
since the version of the level 2 cache can be obtained from a subset of the
address bits.

8a53da22c2 cpu: allow the fetch buffer to be smaller than a cache line
the current implementation of the fetch buffer in the o3 cpu
is only allowed to be the size of a cache line. some
architectures, e.g., ARM, have fetch buffers smaller than a cache
line, see slide 22 at:
http://www.arm.com/files/pdf/at-exploring_the_design_of_the_cortex-a15.pdf

this patch allows the fetch buffer to be set to values smaller
than a cache line.

1e2a455a23 util: Streamline .apc project convertsion script
This Python script generates an ARM DS-5 Streamline .apc project based
on gem5 run. To successfully convert, the gem5 runs needs to be run
with the context-switch-based stats dump option enabled (The guest
kernel also needs to be patched to allow gem5 interrogate its task
information.) See help for more information.
