Kevin Lim c96160cef5 Change the connecting of the physPort and virtPort to the memory object below the CPU to happen every time activateContext is called. The overhead is probably a little higher than necessary, but allows these connections to properly be made when there are CPUs that are inactive until they are switched in. 
Right now this introduces a minor memory leak as old physPorts and virtPorts are not deleted when new ones are created.  A flyspray task has been created for this issue.  It can not be resolved until we determine how the bus will handle giving out ID's to functional ports that may be deleted.

src/cpu/o3/cpu.cc:
src/cpu/simple/atomic.cc:
src/cpu/simple/timing.cc:
    Change the setup of the physPort and virtPort to instead happen every time the CPU has a context activated.  This is a little high overhead, but keeps it working correctly when the CPU does not have a physical memory attached to it until it switches in (like the case of switch CPUs).
src/cpu/o3/thread_context.hh:
    Change function from being called at init() to just being called whenever the memory ports need to be connected.
src/cpu/o3/thread_context_impl.hh:
    Update this to not delete the port if it's the same as the virtPort.
src/cpu/thread_context.hh:
    Change function from being called at init() to whenever the memory ports need to be connected.
src/cpu/thread_state.cc:
    Instead of initializing the ports, simply connect them, deleting any old ports that might exist.  This allows these functions to be called multiple times.
src/cpu/thread_state.hh:
    Ports are no longer initialized, but rather connected at context activation time.

README 

This is release 2.0_beta (patch 1) of the M5 simulator.

For detailed information about building the simulator and getting
started please refer to http://www.m5sim.org.

Specific pages of interest are:
http://www.m5sim.org/wiki/index.php/Compiling_M5
http://www.m5sim.org/wiki/index.php/Running_M5

Short version:

1. If you don't have SCons version 0.96.91 or newer, get it from
http://wwww.scons.org.

2. If you don't have SWIG version 1.3.28 or newer, get it from
http://wwww.swig.org.

3. In this directory, type 'scons build/ALPHA_SE/tests/debug/quick'.  This
will build the debug version of the m5 binary (m5.debug) for the Alpha
syscall emulation target, and run the quick regression tests on it.

If you have questions, please send mail to m5-users@m5sim.org

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

The basic source release includes these subdirectories:
 - m5: 
   - src: source code of the m5 simulator
   - tests: regression tests
   - ext: less-common external packages needed to build m5
   - system/alpha: source for Alpha console and PALcode

To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled console,
PALcode, and kernel binaries and one or more disk images.  These files
are collected in a separate archive, m5_system.tar.bz2.  This file
can he downloaded separately.

M5 supports Linux 2.4/2.6, FreeBSD, and the proprietary Compaq/HP
Tru64 version of Unix. We are able to distribute Linux and FreeBSD
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.
