SConscript:
    Added more files to compile: dev/pcifake.cc, dev/isa_fake.cc, kern/freebsd/freebsd_system.cc, kern/freebsd/freebsd_events.cc.
arch/alpha/isa_traits.hh:
    Added constant for argument register 2 as it is needed by FreebsdSystem::doCalibrateClocks().
cpu/exec_context.hh:
cpu/o3/alpha_cpu.hh:
    Replaced htoa()s with gtoh() and htog().
cpu/o3/fetch_impl.hh:

    Added IdeChannel and IdeRegType type names where necessary.
dev/ide_ctrl.hh:
    Got rid of unnecessary macros.
    Changed RegType_t to IdeRegType.
    Changed bmi_regs to allow accessing registers by name instead of just by array index.
    Added IdeChannel enum type to use in place of bool variables which were used to specify IDE channel.
dev/ide_disk.cc:
    Rewrote IdeDisk::read and IdeDisk::write functions to specify registers by name instead of indexing through an array.
dev/ide_disk.hh:
    Updated command register struct.
dev/ns_gige.cc:
dev/ns_gige.hh:

dev/pcidev.cc:
    Cleaned up readConfig() and writeConfig() functions.

    Changed PCIConfig struct to make accessing elements more straight forward. Removed type 1 (for PCI-to-PCI bridges) PCI configuration space struct since it is not used.
dev/rtcreg.h:
    Added macros for bit fields in RTC status registers A & B.
dev/sinic.cc:
    Function name change: WriteConfig --> writeConfig.
    writeConfig() now takes a pointer to data instead of a copy of data.
    The accessing of elements of PCIConfig structure is updated.
dev/sinic.hh:
    Function name change: WriteConfig --> writeConfig.
    writeConfig() now takes a pointer to data instead of a copy of data.
dev/tsunami_io.cc:
    Added implementation of new RTC and PIT classes.
dev/tsunami_io.hh:
    Added classes for RTC and PIT modules.
dev/tsunamireg.h:
    Added macros for DMA ports used by Tsunami-Tru64.
dev/uart8250.cc:
    Got rid of a magic number.
    Transmit (Tx) interrupts should clear upon a read of the Interrupt ID register.
dev/uart8250.hh:
    Added comments and macros dealing with the UART Interrupt ID register.
kern/linux/linux_system.cc:
    Replaced htoa() with htog().
python/m5/objects/Pci.py:
    PciFake is a python class for Pci Devices that do nothing.
python/m5/objects/Tsunami.py:
    TsunamiFake was renamed as IsaFake.
sim/system.cc:
    Replaced htoa()s with htog()s.
dev/isa_fake.cc:
    New BitKeeper file ``dev/isa_fake.cc''
    TsunamiFake was renamed as IsaFake.
dev/isa_fake.hh:
    New BitKeeper file ``dev/isa_fake.hh''
    TsunmaiFake was renamed as IsaFake.
dev/pitreg.h:
    New BitKeeper file ``dev/pitreg.h''
    Useful macros for working with PIT (Periodic Interval Timer) registers.

This is release m5_1.0 of the M5 simulator.

This file contains brief "getting started" information and release
notes.  For more information, see http://m5.eecs.umich.edu.  If you
have questions, please send mail to m5sim-users@lists.sourceforge.net.

WHAT'S INCLUDED (AND NOT)
-------------------------

Since you're reading this file, presumably you've managed to untar the
distribution.  The archive you've unpacked has three subdirectories:
 - m5: the simulator itself
 - m5-test: regression tests and scripts to run them
 - ext: less-common external packages needed to build m5
   (currently ply and libelf)

M5 is a capable, full-system simulator that current supports both Linux
2.4/2.6 and the proprietary Compaq/HP Tru64 version of Unix. We are able 
to distribute Linux bootdisks, but we are unable to distribute bootable
disk images of Tru64 Unix. If you have a Tru64 license and are interested 
in obtaining disk images, contact us at m5-dev@eecs.umich.edu.

WHAT'S NEEDED
-------------
-GCC(3.X)
-Python(2.4+)

WHAT'S RECOMMENDED
------------------
-MySQL (for statistics complex statistics storage/retrieval)
-Python-MysqlDB (for statistics analysis) 

GETTING STARTED
---------------

The following steps will build and test the simulator.  The variable
"$top" refers to the top directory where you've unpacked the files,
i.e., the one containing the m5, m5-test, and ext directories.

There are three different build targets and three optimizations in each level:
Target:
-------
ALPHA_SE - Syscall emulation simulation
ALPHA_FS - Linux full system simulation
ALPHA_FS_TL - Tru64 (Turbolaser) Unix full system simulation

Optimization:
-------------
m5.debug - debug version of the code with tracing and without optimization
m5.opt   - optimized version of code with tracing
m5.fast  - optimized version of the code without tracing and asserts

cd $top/m5/build
scons TARGET/OPTLEVL  # e.g. ALPHA_FS/m5.opt, use -j N if you have a MP system
cd $top/m5-test
./do-tests.pl -B ALPHA_SE	# test what you just built
./do-tests.pl -B ALPHA_FS	# test what you just built
# wait for tests to run...
# should end with "finished do-tests successfully!"
