Replace Memory with MemObject; no need for two different levels of hierarchy there.
Get rid of addPort(). Change getPort() behavior on PhysicalMemory. SConscript: cpu/simple/cpu.hh: sim/system.cc: sim/system.hh: Replace Memory with MemObject. cpu/base.hh: No need to declare Port here anymore. cpu/cpu_exec_context.hh: Need PageTable definition. cpu/simple/cpu.cc: mem/physical.cc: mem/physical.hh: Replace Memory with MemObject. Get rid of addPort(); allow getting anonymous ports with getPort(). mem/translating_port.hh: Remove unneeded header. sim/process.cc: Replace Memory with MemObject. Change how initialization port gets set up to deal with change in addPort()/getPort(). Current solution is not ideal but it works. sim/process.hh: Remove unneeded headers and declarations. Make LiveProcess::getDesc() abstract instead of panicing if called. sim/syscall_emul.hh: Fix includes. --HG-- extra : convert_revision : 11d4ffb54230038afcf7219cc46e51f809329a2f
