systemc: Remove references to internal constants from the tests.

The tests were referring to constants defined in the Accellera systemc
implementation which identified various log message types. This change
replaces those (sometimes quite long) string constants with their
actual value. This doesn't make that interface any more fragile since
the constant value won't track between the Accellera version and this
one, but it does make its fragility more explicit by using the value
directly.

If in the future we decide to hide the magical nature of those
particular string constants, we could make them into our own constants
in the implementation. Regardless, the tests shouldn't refer to

systemc: Include boost/bind.hpp in the systemc header.

The systemc spec says that sc_bind, sc_ref and sc_cref macros should
expand to boost::bind, boost::ref, and boost::cref respectively, but
that it's "use is not mandantory". Unfortunately, the regression tests
use those macros without actually including the boost headers for
themselves, and so they won't compile without dragging in these boost
headers as a dependency.

This should be mostly ok to include here since gem5 itself shouldn't
include systemc, just the sub headers that systemc brings in. systemc
code which includes systemc *will* have a dependency on boost, but that
at least contains the new dependency somewhat.

systemc: Fill out some of the sc_vector.hh classes.

The iterator class needs to have some operators, etc., defined so that
tests written against it can compile correctly. The implementations
were heavily influenced by the Accellera implementation.

Also it should be noted that the systemc spec is incorrect where it
defines these classes. When implemented like they are in the
Accellera version, the versions of bind in sc_vector_assembly which
take sc_vector<T>::iterator and iterator parameters are different, and
so they can overload each other. If implemented as described by the
spec however, those types are the same and the code won't compile.

systemc: Add a script which automates building and running tests.

The only required option for the script is the path to a build
directory, for instance build/ARM. It uses that when running scons and
when referring to generated files (like the built versions of the
tests). It uses the location of the script itself to find source files,
like the "golden" version of outputs.

This script runs tests in three phases, compilation, running, and
then verification. By default, all three phases are run for all tests,
but which phases run and how they work can be customized by specifying
them explicitly on the command line with the --phase option.

Each time the --phase option shows up on the command line, it should
be followed by the name of the phase being specified. That both
declares that that phase should be run, and also that any subsequent
options apply to that phase, at least until the next --phase option.

Currently, only the "compile" and "execute" phases are implemented, and
only the "compile" phase has been tested at all or has any options
defined. The "compile" phase simply takes all the options it was given
and pass them on to scons. The "verify" phase simply prints a message
which says what it would have verified.

The script can list the available tests with the --list option, as
determined by the json systemc test manifest file which scons can
generate, and which the script can refresh if passed the --update-json
option. You can also specify what "flavor" of build you want to do, ie
opt, debug, fast, etc., with the --flavor option. Only one flavor can
be tested at a time, but that should be the desired behavior most of
the time. If multiple flavors need to be tested, the script can be
invoked multiple times.

Finally, there is a --filter option which accepts a python expression
as a string. That expression is evaluated in the namespace of the
properties of each test in the json file, and if it returns true then
that test is run. For instance, to verify only compile_only tests, you
would use:

systemc/tests/verify.py build/ARM --filter 'compile_only'

To test only compile_only tests named bob, you would run this:

systemc/tests/verify.py build/ARM --filter \
    'compile_only && name ="bob"'

Also included is a simple config.py which is the beginning of a config
which will run the systemc regression tests. Right now, all it knows
how to do is run sc_main.

arch-riscv: Add support for trap value register

RISC-V has a set of CSRs that contain information about a trap that was
taken into each privilegel level, such as illegal instruction bytes or
faulting address.  This patch adds that register, modifies existing
faults to make use of it, and adds a new fault for future use with
handling page faults and bad addresses.

cpu-o3: Missing freeing the heads of DepGraph in IQ squashing

Free the squahsed instructions' heads of DepGraph in IQ squashing

In a system with large register file (ex.2048), the number of
DynInst hits the hardcoded limit (1500). This is caused by
missing freeing the heads of DepGraph in IQ. IQ only clears
out the heads when instructions reach writeback stage.
If a instruction is squashed before writeback stage, its head of
dependency graph, which holds the instruction's DynInstPtr,
would not be cleared out. This prevents freeing the DynInst of the
squahsed instruction even after it is committed.

There was an off-by-one error in the isRead() case, as `val_end` and
`func_end` pointed to the last byte to write to (not one past the last

This was correct in the case of

where `overlap_size = size`, but if it were (as the other cases

off by one.

Also, the isWrite() case catered for this.

I simplified the four ifs into one case which uses min/max (this is
how I spotted the inconsistency).

mem: Add a memory delay simulator

Add a memory system component that delays traffic. The base
functionality to delay packets is implemented in the abstract MemDelay
class. This class exposes three methods that control packet delays:

  * delayReq(pkt)
  * delayResp(pkt)
  * delaySnoopResp(pkt)

These methods should be specialized to implement delays for specific
packet types.

The class SimpleMemDelay uses the MemDelay base class to implement
constant delays for read/write requests and responses.

The intention is that these classes can be used for rapid prototyping
of components that add a small fixed delay and the same throughput as
the interconnect. I.e., any buffering done in the base class will be
small and proportional to the introduced delay.

scons: Generalize building binaries.

Building gem5 binaries or regression test binaries needs to be done
from within the make_env function which builds an environment for each
flavor of build (opt, fast, debug, etc.). That makes it impossible to
add new types of binaries without modifying the central SConscript.

This change refactors how binaries are set up so that the class that
represents them handles the details of how the binary should be built.
Also, a metaclass and some lists track types of binaries and individual
instances of binaries so that they can be iterated over automatically
in make_env.

Each new executable class can define a declare_all class function which
calls declare() on individual instances. declare_all is a place to do
any processing that only has to happen once (for instance specializing
the environment) for a particular family of executables.
