syscall_emul: [patch 2/22] move SyscallDesc into its own .hh and .cc
The class was crammed into syscall_emul.hh which has tons of forward declarations and template definitions. To clean it up a bit, moved the class into separate files and commented the class with doxygen style comments. Also, provided some encapsulation by adding some accessors and a mutator. The syscallreturn.hh file was renamed syscall_return.hh to make it consistent with other similarly named files in the src/sim directory. The DPRINTF_SYSCALL macro was moved into its own header file with the include the Base and Verbose flags as well. --HG-- rename : src/sim/syscallreturn.hh => src/sim/syscall_return.hh

+/**
+ * This class represents the return value from an emulated system call,
+ * including any errno setting.
+ *
+ * On some platforms, the return value and errno are encoded in a
+ * single signed integer. A value less than zero but greater than
+ * -4096 indicates an error, and the value is the negation of the
+ * errno value. Otherwise, the call was successful and the integer is
+ * the return value. (Large negative numbers are considered
+ * successful to allow syscalls to return pointers to high memory,
+ * e.g., stack addresses.) See, for example, Appendix A of the AMD64
+ * ABI spec at http://www.x86-64.org/documentation/abi.pdf.
+ *
+ * Other platforms use a more complex interface, returning a value and
+ * an error code in separate registers.
+ *
+ * This class is designed to support both types of interfaces.
