configs: Unifiy interpretation of Realview mem_regions

In every arm platform which is making use of them, mem_regions are
interpreted as a pair of start address and size. However arm
SimpleSystem, which is using VExpress_GEM5_V1, is interpreting them as
start address and end address.  This patch is fixing this mismatch.

riscv: remove NonSpeculative flag from fence inst

Fence instruction origially had two flags NonSpeculative and
MemBarrier. In O3 model, MemBarrier instructions are inserted
into the instruction queue by the InstructionQueue::insertBarrier (at
src/cpu/o3/iew_impl.hh:1083). Barrier instructions are implicitly
assumed to be non-speculative.

Adding NonSpeculative flag to fence instruction makes it inserted into
the instruction queue twice (at src/cpu/o3/iew_impl.hh:1083 and :1111).
This can lead to a deadlock if both pointers to the instruction are not
cleared from the queue when the instruction retires.

This patch removes NonSpeculative flag from the fence inst.

cpu: fix how a thread starts up in MinorCPU

When a thread is activated by another thread calling a clone system
call, the child thread's context is initialized in the middle of the
clone system call and before the context is fully initialized.
Therefore, the child thread starts fetching an unitialized PC, which
could lead to a page fault.

This patch adds a pipeline wakeup event that is scheduled later in the
cycle when the thread is activated. This event ensures that the first
fetch only happens after the thread context is fully initialized
(e.g., in case of clone syscall, it is when the parent thread copies
its context over to the child thread).

When a thread first starts or wakes up, input queue to the Fetch2 stage
needs to be drained since the execution flow is likely to change and
previously fetched instructions in the queue may no longer be in the
correct flow. This patch dumps/drains all inputs in the input queue
of a thread context in the Fetch2 stage when the associated thread wakes
up.

scons: fix unused auto-generated blob variable in clang

Since f2bda876f73af4ecc38406f3562a3d16fd28a5a9, the build system started
adding a length for generated blobs as in:

const std::size_t variable_len = 123;

There were two types of blob files, ones with a header and the ones
without.

The ones with the header, also include the header in the .cc of the blob,
which contains a declaration:

extern const std::size_t variable_len;

Therefore, the ones without header, don't have that extern declaration,
which makes them static according to the C++ standard.

clang then correctly interprets that as problematic due to
-Wunused-const-variable, while GCC does not notice this.

This patch removes the length declaration from the blob files that don't
have the header. Those files currently don't use the length.

configs, arch-arm: don't search for default DTB and kernel

Before this commit, there were default magic DTB and kernel filenames
for some platforms.

This was inelegant and error prone, as it refered to out-of-tree files,
and set defaults which users almost always want to customize with
explicit command line options.

One result of this is that a wrong exception could be thrown if --kernel
was given but not --machine-type, since the default machine type
VExpress_EMM had a default kernel, and the code would always search for
the default filename even though --kernel was given:

IOError: Can't find file 'vmlinux.aarch32.ll_20131205.0-gem5' on path.

The defaults existed only for older machine types, and not for the
usually recommended VExpress_GEM5_V1, which suggests that this
deprecation should not affect many users.

cpu-o3: O3 LSQ Generalisation

This patch does a large modification of the LSQ in the O3 model. The
main goal of the patch is to remove the 'an operation can be served with
one or two memory requests' assumption that is present in the LSQ
and the instruction with the req, reqLow, reqHigh triplet, and
generalising it to operations that can be addressed with one request,
and operations that require many requests, embodied in the
SingleDataRequest and the SplitDataRequest.

This modification has been done mimicking the minor model to an extent,
shifting the responsibilities of dealing with VtoP translation and
tracking the status and resources from the DynInst to the LSQ via the
LSQRequest. The LSQRequest models the information concerning the
operation, handles the creation of fragments for translation and request
as well as assembling/splitting the data accordingly.

With this modifications, the implementation of vector ISAs, particularly
on the memory side, become more rich, as the new model permits a
dissociation of the ISA characteristics as vector length, from the
microarchitectural characteristics that govern how contiguous loads are
executing, allowing exploration of different LSQ to DL1 bus widths to
understand the tradeoffs in complexity and performance.

Part of the complexities introduced stem from the fact that gem5 keeps a
large amount of metadata regarding, in particular, memory operations,
thus, when an instruction is squashed while some operation as TLB lookup
or cache access is ongoing, when the relevant structure communicates to
the LSQ that the operation is over, it tries to access some pieces of
data that should have died when the instruction is squashed, leading to
asserts, panics, or memory corruption. To ensure the correct behaviour,
the LSQRequest rely on assesing who is their owner, and self-destroying
if they detect their owner is done with the request, and there will be
no subsequent action. For example, in the case of an instruction
squashed whal the TLB is doing a walk to serve the translation, when the
translation is served by the TLB, the LSQRequest detects that the
instruction was squashed, and as the translation is done, no one else
expect to access its information, and therefore, it self-destructs.
Having destroyed the LSQRequest earlier, would lead to wrong behaviour
as the TLB walk may access some fields of it.

tests (and likely some external code) depends on. We avoid including
those in files built into gem5 itself so that gem5 isn't dependent on

2. All includes in ext should be relative. That way those headers can
be removed from gem5 and still build, allowing them to be moved over
to or referenced from a foreign codebase which isn't part of gem5.

base: add support for GDB's XML architecture definition

This is done by implementing the Xfer:features:read packet of the GDB
remote protocol.

Before this commit, gem5 used the defaults of the GDB client.

With this commit, gem5 can inform the client which registers it knows
about. This allows in particular to support new registers which an older
GDB client does not yet know about.

The XML is not implemented in this commit for any arch, and falls back
almost exactly to previous behaviour. The only change is that now gem5
replies to the Supported: request which the GDB clients sends at the
beginning of the transaction with an empty feature list containing only
the mandatory PacketSize= argument.

Since the feature list does not contain qXfer:features:read, the GDB
client knows that the gem5 server does support the XML format and uses
its default registers as before.
