dev: Remove SINIC_VTOPHYS and related code.

The code in this #ifdef isn't turned on by anything, and either has or
likely will bitrot, especially since there are no tests to even
determine manually if the code they guard works. They are also
preceeded by panics which say that the code they guard is known not to
work now anyway.

This change also gets rid of TheISA in that file since the only reason
it was around was for vtophys in the guarded code.

These are the from the various bits of the tsunami platform. They
primarily consisted of "using TheISA" which could be replaced with
using AlphaISA or removed altogether (I went with the later), and use
of TheISA:: which I replaced with AlphaISA::.

sparc: Create a helper functions to install firmware images.

The first function handles the repetitive process of creating an
ObjectFile for a particular purpose and checking if that was
successful.
The second conditionally offsets the images in case they were, for
instance, loaded from an ELF file which already had them in the right
place. It offsets them so that their entry point (which will be zero
for raw images) lines up with the appropriate entry address (which will
be at the start of raw images).

This is more correct in more cases, and also removes a lot of
redundancy. There's still a lot of redundancy in the code which sets
up the symbol tables, but there are some irregularities which make that
harder to wrap in a helper function.

mem: Fix DRAM controller to operate on its own address space

Typically, a memory controller is assigned an address range of the
form [start, end). This address range might be interleaved and
therefore only a non-continuous subset of the addresses in the address
range is handed by this controller.

Prior to this patch, the DRAM controller was unaware of the
interleaving and as a result the address range could affect the
mapping of addresses to DRAM ranks, rows and columns. This patch
changes the DRAM controller, to transform the input address to a
continuous range of the form [0, size). As a result the DRAM
controller always operates on a dense and continuous address range
regardlesss of the system configuration.

mem-cache: Avoid promotion of incompatible deferred targets

Often a request that hits on an MSHR has to be deferred as it can't be
serviced by the current response.

For example, a request that requires writable has to be deferred when
the response is expected to bring in a read-only copy of the
block. However, there are cases where the response, although not
expected to do so, brings a writable copy and as a result we also
service deferred targets. In such cases, we promote deferred targets
up until the first that can't be serviced by the current response
(e.g., cache maintainance operation). If the first deferred target is
incompatible we don't promote any targets at all.

tests: Added GTests for base/str.cc

Adding these tests supercedes the unittest/strnumtest.cc
and unittest/tokentest.cc tests. They have thereby been removed.

Function "to_number" in base/str.hh previously failed to cast negative
float/double numbers. This was due to the use of
std::numeric_limits<T>::min() instead of std::numeric_limits<T>::lowest()
to determine whether a string-to-float/double conversion was
"Out of range". Tests "StrTest.ToNumberFloatNegative" and
"StrTest.ToNumberDoubleNegative" exposed this bug. It has been fixed.

Methods "split_first" and "split_last" in base/str.hh have had their
documentation updated to remove abiguity in their functionality.

cpu, sim-se: don't wake up threads that are awake in futex

FutexMap::wakeup is called when the futex(TGT_FUTEX_WAKE syscall is done.

FutexMap maintains a list of sleeping threads for each futex address
added on FutexMap::suspend, and entries are removed from the list
at FutexMap::wakeup.

The problem is that this system was not taking into account that threads
can be woken up by memory accesses to locked addresses via the path:

SimpleThread::activate
BaseSimpleCPU::wakeup
AbstractMemory::checkLockedAddrList
AbstractMemory::access
DRAMCtrl::recvAtomic
CoherentXBar::recvAtomicBackdoor
SimpleExecContext::writeMem

which happens on trivial pthread examples on ARM at least. The instruction
that locked memory in those test cases was LDAXR.

This could lead futex(TGT_FUTEX_WAKE to awake a thread that is already
awake but is first on the sleeping thread list, instead of a sleeping one,
which can lead all threads to incorrectly sleep and in turn to
"simulate() limit reached".

To implement this, ThreadContext::activate return now returns a boolean
that indicates if the state changed. suspend and halt are also modified
to also return a boolean in the same case for symmetry, although this is
not strictly necessary for the current patch.

base: Add classes that encapsulate a channel address

There are cases where the memory system needs to reason about
channel-local addresses. These are currently represented using the
Addr and AddrRange classes. This is not ideal since it doesn't provide
any type safety when working with global addresses and channel-local
addresses. This is particularly problematic when porting existing
components to work in multi-channel configurations.

This changeset introduces the new ChannelAddr and ChannelAddrRange
classes. These classes encapsulate channel-local addresses in a
contiguous address space. These can, for example, be used in a memory
controller to represent a flat address space when calculating timings
or in a sectored cache.

arch,base: Restructure the object file loaders.

This change creates a distinction between object files which hold
executable code, and flat files which don't. The first type of files
have entry points, symbols, etc., while the others are just blobs which
can be shoved into memory. Rather than have those aspects but stub
them out, this change creates a new base class which simply doesn't
have them.

This change also restructures the ELF loader since it's main function
was quite long and doing multiple jobs.

It stops passing the architecture and operating system to the
ObjectFile constructor, since those might not be known at the very top
of the constructor. Instead, those default to Uknown*, and then are
filled in in the constructor body if appropriate. This removes a lot
of plumbing that was hard to actually use in practice.

It also introduces a mechanism to collect generic object file formats
so that they can be tried one by one by the general createObjectFile
function, rather than listing them all there one by one. It's unlikely
that new types of object files will need to be added in a modular way
without being able to modify the core loader code, but it's cleaner to
have that abstraction and modularization like is already there for
process loaders.

Finally, to make it possible to share the code which handles zipped
files for both true object files and also files which will be loaded
into memory but are just blobs, that mechanism is pulled out into a
new class called ImageFileData. It holds a collection of segments
which are set up by the object file and may refer to regions of the
original file, buffers maintained elsewhere, or even nothing to support
bss-es. shared_ptr is used to make it easier to keep track of that
information without having to do so explicitly or worry about deleting
a buffer before everyone was done using it.

According to the Intel SDM, no instruction following an LFENCE can begin
execution until after the LFENCE has executed. (This is
less strict than an actual serializing instruction, such as CPUID.)

Serializing instructions (per intel SDM Volume 3A Chapter 8.3) ensure
that no future instruction is fetched until after the serializing
instruction is completed.

By contrast, LFENCE (and other memory-ordering instructions) allows
future instructions to have been fetched; it just prohibits them from
being executed.

sim,cpu: Get rid of the unused instEventQueue.

This queue was set up to allow triggering events based on the total
number of instructions executed at the system level, and was added in
a change which added a number of things to support McPAT. No code
checked into gem5 actually schedules an event on that queue, and no
code in McPAT (which seems to have gone dormant) either downloadable
from github or found in ext modify gem5 in a way that makes it use
the instEventQueue.

Also, the KVM CPU does not interact with the instEventQueue correctly.
While it does check the per-thread instruction event queue when
deciding how long to run, it does not check the instEventQueue. It will
poke it to run events when it stops for other reasons, but it may (and
likely will) have run beyond the point where it was supposed to stop.

Since this queue doesn't seem to actually be used for anything, isn't
being used properly in all cases anyway, and adds overhead to all the
CPU models, this change eliminates it.

mem-cache: set the second chance to false when inserting a block

Modify second chance replacement policy so that entries are inserted
without a second chance. Previously, the second chance bit was set
to true when a cache line was inserted. So the cache line would gain
its second chance when inserting. This is wrong because the cache
block will only get a second chance when it hits.

Here's a quoted citation for the second chance replacement policy:
"Whenever the algorithm examines a page entry, it extracts the associated
usage bit and enters it into the high-order position of a k-bit shift
register after shifting the contents of the register one bit-position
lower. Then if the shift register is nonzero, the page is retained; if the
shift register is zero, the page is replaced by the new page. In either
case the usage bit for the page is turned off and the circular list
pointer is advanced."
(A Paging Experiment with the Multics System, FJ Corbato, 1968)

arch,base: Separate the idea of a memory image and object file.

A memory image can be described by an object file, but an object file
is more than a memory image. Also, it makes sense to manipulate a
memory image to, for instance, change how it's loaded into memory. That
takes on larger implications (relocations, the entry point, symbols,
etc.) when talking about the whole object file, and also modifies
aspects which may not need to change. For instance if an image needs
to be loaded into memory at addresses different from what's in the
object file, but other things like symbols need to stay unmodified.

mem-ruby: Allow Ruby to use all replacement policies in Classic

Add support in Ruby to use all replacement policies in Classic.
Furthermore, if new replacement policies are added to the
Classic system, the Ruby system will recognize new policies
without any other changes in Ruby system. The following list
all the major changes:

  * Make Ruby cache entries (AbstractCacheEntry) inherit from
    Classic cache entries (ReplaceableEntry). By doing this,
    replacement policies can use cache entries from Ruby caches.
    AccessPermission and print function are moved from
    AbstractEntry to AbstractCacheEntry, so AbstractEntry is no
    longer needed.

  * DirectoryMemory and all SLICC files are changed to use
    AbstractCacheEntry as their cache entry interface. So do the
    python files in mem/slicc/ast which check the entry
    interface.

  * "main='false'" argument is added to the protocol files where
    the DirectoryEntry is defined. This change helps
    differentiate DirectoryEntry from CacheEntry because they are
    both the instances of AbstractCacheEntry now.

  * Use BaseReplacementPolicy in Ruby caches instead of
    AbstractReplacementPolicy so that Ruby caches will recognize
    the replacement policies from Classic.

  * Add getLastAccess() and useOccupancy() function to Classic
    system so that Ruby caches can use them. Move lastTouchTick
    to ReplacementData struct because it's needed by
    getLastAccess() to return the correct value.

  * Add a 2-dimensional array of ReplacementData in Ruby caches
    to store information for different replacement policies. Note
    that, unlike Classic caches, where policy information is
    stored in cache entries, the policy information needs to be
    stored in a new 2-dimensional array. This is due to Ruby
    caches deleting the cache entry every time the corresponding
    cache line get evicted.

arch,base: Stop loading the interpreter in ElfObject.

The interpreter is a separate object file, and while it's convenient to
hide loading it in the code which loads the main object file, it breaks
the conceptual abstraction since you only asked it to load the main
object file.

Also, this makes every object file format reimplement the idea of
loading the interpreter. Admittedly only ELF recognizes and sets up
an interpreter, but other formats conceptually could too.

This does move that limitted hypothetical redundancy out of the object
file formats and moves it into the process objects, but I think
conceptually that's where it belongs. It would also probably be pretty
easy to add a method to the base Process class that would handle
loading an image and also the interpreter image.

This change does not (yet) separate reading symbol tables.

arch, base: Stop assuming object files have three segments.

The ObjectFile class has hardcoded assumptions that there are three
segments, text, bss and data. There are some files which have one
"segment" like raw files, where the entire file's contents are
considered a single segment. There are also ELF files which can have
an arbitrary number of segments, and those segments can hold any
number of sections, including the text, data and/or bss sections.

Removing this assumption frees up some object file formats from having
to twist themselves to fit in that structure, possibly introducing
ambiguities when some segments may fulfill multiple roles.
