The change "config: Change mem_range attribute naming in ARM
SimpleSystem" modified the SimpleSystem class to be compatible with
the MemConfig utility script. While doing so, the way we report the
memory ranges supported by the system changed, which broke the bL
example configration. This changeset introduces the necessary changes
to make the script work again.

The ARM example configs used to rely on CPU aliases for the
AtomicSimpleCPU and KVM when configuring clusters. This broken when
support for CPU aliases was removed ('config: Remove support for CPU
aliases.'). This change updates the config scripts to use the full
class names instead.

Old ARM systems used to pass the machine type in the ATAGS list passed
to the kernel. This has been largely deprecated by the introduction of
device trees. Switch to the DTOnly machine type by default in gem5
since all new platforms and kernel will require this behavior.

The CpuConfig helper currently assumes that all timing models live in
the cores.arm package. This ignores the potential mismatch between the
target ISA and the ISA assumptions made by the timing models.
Instead of unconditionally listing all CPU models in cores.arm, list
timing models from cores.generic and cores.${TARGET_ISA}. This ensures
that the listed timing models support the ISA that gem5 is targeting.

This patch adds some more functionality to the cpu model and the arch to
interface with the vector register file.
This change consists mainly of augmenting ThreadContexts and ExecContexts
with calls to get/set full vectors, underlying microarchitectural elements
or lanes. Those are meant to interface with the vector register file. All
classes that implement this interface also get an appropriate implementation.
This requires implementing the vector register file for the different
models using the VecRegContainer class.
This change set also updates the Result abstraction to contemplate the
possibility of having a vector as result.
The changes also affect how the remote_gdb connection works.
There are some (nasty) side effects, such as the need to define dummy
numPhysVecRegs parameter values for architectures that do not implement
vector extensions.
Nathanael Premillieu's work with an increasing number of fixes and
improvements of mine.

When importing the cores.arm package, we currently throw an exception
if a timing model can't be imported due to a missing dependency (e.g.,
the required CPU model wasn't included in the build). This is
undesirable since it prevents other, working, timing models from being
added to the package. Wrap the import_module call in a try-except
block and skip timing models that have missing dependencies.

Previous naming format was:
<DEVICE_TYPE>_<DATA_RATE>_<CHANNEL_WIDTH>
The following nomenclature is now used:
<DEVICE_TYPE>_<DATA_RATE>_<n>x<w>
where n = The number of devices per rank on the channel
x = Device width
Total channel width can be calculated by n*w
Example:
A 64-bit DDR4, 2400 channel consisting of 4-bit devices:
n = 16
w = 4
The resulting configuration name is:
DDR4_2400_16x4

If the cache access mode is parallel, i.e. "sequential_access" parameter
is set to "False", tags and data are accessed in parallel. Therefore,
the hit_latency is the maximum latency between tag_latency and
data_latency. On the other hand, if the cache access mode is
sequential, i.e. "sequential_access" parameter is set to "True",
tags and data are accessed sequentially. Therefore, the hit_latency
is the sum of tag_latency plus data_latency.

This patch adds the ability for an application to request dist-gem5 to begin/
end synchronization using an m5 op. When toggling on sync, all nodes agree
on the next sync point based on the maximum of all nodes' ticks. CPUs are
suspended until the sync point to avoid sending network messages until sync has
been enabled. Toggling off sync acts like a global execution barrier, where
all CPUs are disabled until every node reaches the toggle off point. This
avoids tricky situations such as one node hitting a toggle off followed by a
toggle on before the other nodes hit the first toggle off.

this patch adds an ordered response buffer to the GM pipeline
to ensure in-order data delivery. the buffer is implemented as
a stl ordered map, which sorts the request in program order by
using their sequence ID. when requests return to the GM pipeline
they are marked as done. only the oldest request may be serviced
from the ordered buffer, and only if is marked as done.
the FIFO response buffers are kept and used in OoO delivery mode

This patch breaks out the most basic configuration options into a set
of base options, to allow them to be used also by scripts that do not
involve any ISA, and thus no actual CPUs or devices.
The patch also fixes a few modules so that they can be imported in a
NULL build, and avoid dragging in FSConfig every time Options is
imported.
