It makes more sense for Process to do the allocation, so
this method was renamed allocateMem() and moved to Process,

ISA parser: Use '_' instead of '.' to delimit type modifiers on operands.
By using an underscore, the "." is still available and can unambiguously be
used to refer to members of a structure if an operand is a structure, class,

there were also a few places where the ISA descriptions where handling the
extensions themselves and had their own regular expressions to update. The
regular expressions in the isa parser were updated as well. It also now
looks for one of the defined type extensions specifically after connecting "_"
where before it would look for any sequence of characters after a "."
following an operand name and try to use it as the extension. This helps to
disambiguate cases where a "_" may legitimately be part of an operand name but
not separate the name from the type suffix.
Because leaving the "_" and suffix on the variable name still leaves a valid
C++ identifier and all extensions need to be consistent in a given context, I
considered leaving them on as a breadcrumb that would show what the intended
type was for that operand. Unfortunately the operands can be referred to in
code templates, the Mem operand in particular, and since the exact type of Mem
can be different for different uses of the same template, that broke things.

Decode: Pull instruction decoding out of the StaticInst class into its own.
This change pulls the instruction decoding machinery (including caches) out of

benefits. First, the StaticInst code, which has gotten to be quite large, gets
simpler. Second, the code that handles decode caching is now separated out
into its own component and can be looked at in isolation, making it easier to
understand. I took the opportunity to restructure the code a bit which will
hopefully also help.
Beyond that, this change also lays some ground work for each ISA to have its
own, potentially stateful decode object. We'd be able to include less
contextualizing information in the ExtMachInst objects since that context
would be applied at the decoder. Also, the decoder could "know" ahead of time
that all the instructions it's going to see are going to be, for instance, 64
bit mode, and it will have one less thing to check when it decodes them.
Because the decode caching mechanism has been separated out, it's now possible
to have multiple caches which correspond to different types of decoding
context. Having one cache for each element of the cross product of different
configurations may become prohibitive, so it may be desirable to clear out the
cache when relatively static state changes and not to have one for each
setting.
Because the decode function is no longer universally accessible as a static
member of the StaticInst class, a new function was added to the ThreadContexts

X86: Make sure instruction flags are set properly even on 32 bit machines.
The way flag bits were being set for microops in x86 ended up implicitly
calling the bitset constructor which was truncating flags beyond the width of
an unsigned long. This change sets the bits in chunks which are always small
enough to avoid being truncated. On 64 bit machines this should reduce to be
the same as before, and on 32 bit machines it should work properly and not be
unreasonably inefficient.

X86,TLB: Make sure the "delayedResponse" variable is always set.
When an instruction is translated in the x86 TLB, a variable called
delayedResponse is passed back and forth which tracks whether a translation
could be completed immediately, or if there's going to be callback that will
finish things up. If a read was to the internal memory space, memory mapped
registers used to implement things like MSRs, the function hadn't yet gotten
to where delayedResponse was set to false, it's default. That meant that the
value was never set, and the TLB could start waiting for a callback that would
never come. This change simply moves the assignment to above where control
can divert to translateInt().

TLB: comments and a helpful warning.
Nothing big here, but when you have an address that is not in the page table request to be allocated, if it falls outside of the maximum stack range all you get is a page fault and you don't know why. Add a little warn() to explain it a bit. Also add some comments and alter logic a little so that you don't totally ignore the return value of checkAndAllocNextPage().

Fix build for gcc-4.2 opt/fast
Even though the code is safe, compiler flags a warning here, which are treated as errors for fast/opt. I know it's redundant but it has no side effects and fixes the compile.

Functional Accesses: Update states to support Broadcast/Snooping protocols.
In the current implementation of Functional Accesses, it's very hard to
implement broadcast or snooping protocols where the memory has no idea if it
has exclusive access to a cache block or not. Without this knowledge, making
sure the RW vs. RO permissions are right are next to impossible. So we add a
new state called Backing_Store to enable the conveyance that this is the backup
storage for a block, so that it can be written if it is the only possibly RW
block in the system, or written even if there is another RW block in the
system, without causing problems.
Also, a small change to actually set the m_name field for each Controller so
that debugging can be easier. Now you can access a controller's name just by
controller->getName().

ARM: Mark some variables uncacheable until boot all CPUs are enabled.
There are a set of locations is the linux kernel that are managed via
cache maintence instructions until all processors enable their MMUs & TLBs.
Writes to these locations are manually flushed from the cache to main
memory when the occur so that cores operating without their MMU enabled
and only issuing uncached accesses can receive the correct data. Unfortuantely,
gem5 doesn't support any kind of software directed maintence of the cache.
Until such time as that support exists this patch marks the specific cache blocks
that need to be coherent as non-cacheable until all CPUs enable their MMU and
thus allows gem5 to boot MP systems with caches enabled (a requirement for
booting an O3 cpu and thus an O3 CPU regression).

Fix bugs due to interaction between SEV instructions and O3 pipeline
SEV instructions were originally implemented to cause asynchronous squashes
via the generateTCSquash() function in the O3 pipeline when updating the
SEV_MAILBOX miscReg. This caused race conditions between CPUs in an MP system
that would lead to a pipeline either going inactive indefinitely or not being
able to commit squashed instructions. Fixed SEV instructions to behave like
interrupts and cause synchronous sqaushes inside the pipeline, eliminating
the race conditions. Also fixed up the semantics of the WFE instruction to
behave as documented in the ARMv7 ISA description to not sleep if SEV_MAILBOX=1
or unmasked interrupts are pending.
