Subject: cpu-o3: Make the smtCommitPolicy a Param.ScopedEnum
X-Git-Tag: v19.0.0.0~1256
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1e9f65343c79b2c3b081e785cfec070d25292be7;p=gem5.git

cpu-o3: Make the smtCommitPolicy a Param.ScopedEnum

The smtCommitPolicy is a parameter in the o3 cpu that can have 3
different values. Previously this setting was done through a string
and a parser function would turn it into a c++ enum value. This
changeset turns the string into a python Param.ScopedEnum.
