util: Build m5 with -no-pie flag

Added -no-pie flag to link /util/m5 to support newer versions of GCC
that enable PIE by default. Tested for backwards compatibility with GCC
4.3, which, only warns for the unrecognized flag.

python: Change || to && for MessageBuffers in connectPorts.

The connectPorts function currently checks if *either* of the peers in
a port connection are a MessageBuffer, and if so will ignore the
connection. This CL changes that || into a && so that *both* of the
peers need to be a Ruby types (either a MessageBuffer or Network) for
the connection to be ignored. That makes it easier to contain that
abnormal behavior to those types instead of having it apply even when
other types of port owners are involved.

Unfortunately the number of interesting Ruby types is unbounded, but
these are the types with ports as of today. This mechanism will
hopefully be replacedall together so this should be a temporary issue.

python: Improve how templated SimObject classes are handled.

When setting up a SimObject's Param structure, gem5 will autogenerate
a header file which attempts to declare the SimObject's C++ type. It
has had at least some level of sophistication there where it would
pull off the namespaces ahead of the class name and handle them
properly, but it didn't know how to handle templates.

This change improves that handling in two ways. First, it adds a new
magical SimObject attribute called 'cxx_template_params' which is used
to specify what the template parameters are as a list. For instance, if
your SimObject was a template which took an integer constant as its
first parameter and a type as its second, this attribute could look
like the following:

cxx_template_params = [ 'int FOO', 'class Bar' ]

Importantly, if there are any default values for these template
parameters, they should *not* be included here, they should be
specified where the class is later defined.

The second new mechanism is to add an internal CxxClass in the
SimObject.cxx_param_decl method. This class accepts the class signature
in the cxx_class attribute and the cxx_template_params and does two
things. First, it strips off namespaces like in the old implementation.
Second, it extracts and processes any template arguments attached to
the class. If these are constants (as determined by the contents of
cxx_template_params), then they are stored verbatim. If they're types,
then they're recursively expanded into a CxxClass and stored that way.
Note that these are the *values* of the template arguments, where as
cxx_template_params lists the *types* and *names* of those arguments.
In our earlier example, if cxx_class was:

cxx_class = 'CoolClasses::ClassName<12, Fruit::Apple>'

Then CxxClass would extract the namespace 'CoolClasses', the class
name 'ClassName', the argument '12', and the argument 'Fruit::Apple'.
That second argument would be expanded into a CxxClass with the
namespace 'Fruit' and the class name 'Apple'.

Importantly here, because there were no default arguments given in
cxx_template_params, all "hidden" arguments which would fall through
to their defaults need to be fully specified in cxx_class.

The CxxClass has a method called declare() which uses the information
extracted earlier to output all of the "stuff" necessary for declaring
the given class, including opening any containing namespaces and
putting template<...> ahead of the actual class declaration with the
template parameters specified.

If any of the template arguments are themselves CxxClass instances,
then they'll be recursively declared immediately before the current
class is.

An alternative solution to this problem might be to include the header
file which actually defines the cxx_class type to avoid having to
come up with a declaration. Unfortunately this doesn't work since it
can set up include loops where the SimObject C++ header file includes
the param header to get access to the Param type, but that includes
the C++ header to get access to the SimObject type.

This also makes it harder for SimObjects to refer to each other, since
they rely on the declaration in the params header files when declaring
a member pointer to that type in their own Param structures.

When dealing with writebacks, as soon as the packet metadata arrives
there will be a tag lookup, done sequentially because a write can't
be done in parallel. While the tag lookup is being done, the payload

util, tlm: Fix a memory error in the SCMasterPort class.

In the b_transport method of the SCMasterPort class, there is a check
which determines whether the packet being sent to gem5 should be
deleted once the call to sendAtomic returns. This was deleting the
packet if extension was *not* nullptr.

This check should delete the packet if the extension *is* nullptr. The
reasoning is that the extension will equal nullptr if there was no
gem5 packet in an extension and a new one needed to be allocated. If
there was an extension, ie if extension is not nullptr, then that's
where the packet came from which therefore doesn't belong to us. In
that case, we need to leave it alone and let its owner clean it up.

With the check reversed, this method will either leak allocated packets
it should delete, or delete packets it shouldn't that someone else will
likely try to use later.

python: Fix issue when Self proxy resolves to a another proxy

The problem occurs when a proxy is being resolved to another proxy
that hasn't been resolved yet. The problematic case that was
triggering this issues in the VGIC. It was caused by parameters
looking a bit like this:

gic = Param.GicV2(Parent.any)
some_param = Param.Int(Self.gic.some_param)

When 'some_param' was resolved, it found the 'gic' parameter in
Self. However, that parameter hadn't been resolved yet, so the
existing code was setting the proxy evaluation context to the
unresolved Parent.any proxy without first unproxying it.

It seems like this bug depends on the graph traversal order and I have
so far only seen it when compiling gem5 with Python 3.

ruby: Fix garnet's round robin arbitration for vc selection

Garnet utilizes round robin policy to select a VC for
transmission ar Network Interface and Routers. The current logic
for round robin is only fair if all the virtual networks are active
at a given router. If the router or network interface is not
receiving traffic in from any vnet then the priority is always taken
up by the next vnet in numerically (or loops back to 0).

This fix changes the way we perform round robin arbitration. When
a VC is selected in a cycle, the round robin pointer is set to the VC
next to it and is iterated from there on. If any VC does not have a
flit in a given cycle, it will lose its turn until the next round.
At maximum traffic this will model round robin correctly even if
a certain VNET is not active at that unit.

scons: Add a convenience method to set RPATH for local libraries.

When linking in a dynamic library which is in the gem5 build directory,
it's useful to set RPATH so that you don't have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH
when you run gem5 so that the dynamic linker can find it.

Since it's tricky and not entirely obvious how to set up those paths
correctly, this change adds a small convenience function which does
that for you. It also handles situations where the same dynamic
library may be linked into different binaries in different directories
which each need a different relative RPATH. It does that by letting the
environment for each binary set a construction variable which says
how to get from that particular binary back to the build directory.
This helper method then sets RPATH to start at $ORIGIN (the binary),
to follow that relative path to the variant build directory, and then
the per-library but not per-binary path to the library's directory.

This change also adds the -z origin linker flag which makes the linker
handle $ORIGIN properly.

If sc_main hasn't run, for instance if there isn't an sc_main and gem5

thrown to the sc_main fiber since it isn't running and may not be able
to run since sc_main may not even exist.

Instead, we need to check whether it makes sense to throw to sc_main,
and if not pass the exception directly to the report handler since
there likely won't be anyone to catch it if we just throw it from the
scheduler or into general purpose gem5.

Since the name throwToScMain is no longer a complete description for
what that function does, this change renames it to throwUp, since it
will now throw exceptions up the stack, either to sc_main or to the

python: Fix Param initialization issue in Python 3

checks if the 'ptype' attribute has been created and whether the value

There are some cases, specifically when running systemc, that it's
necessary to exit the simulation loop immediately rather than finishing
running events scheduled for the current Tick. When running under

happen immediately. When running without sc_main, control needs to
return to the python config script which needs to happen through a

Since sc_pause and sc_stop are supposed to stop simulation without

a way to schedule an exit event with a very high priority (rather than
