2011-02-04	inorder: add a fetch buffer to fetch unit	Korey Sewell
	Give fetch unit it's own parameterizable fetch buffer to read from. Very inefficient (architecturally and in simulation) to continually fetch at the granularity of the wordsize. As expected, the number of fetch memory requests drops dramatically
2011-02-04	inorder: stage width as a python parameter	Korey Sewell
	allow the user to specify how many instructions a pipeline stage can process on any given cycle (stageWidth...i.e.bandwidth) by setting the parameter through the python interface rather than compile the code after changing the *.cc file. (we always had the parameter there, but still used the static 'ThePipeline::StageWidth' instead) - Since StageWidth is now dynamically defined, change the interstage communication structure to use a vector and get rid of array and array handling index (toNextStageIndex) since we can just make calls to the list for the same information
2011-02-03	Config: Keep track of uncached and cached ports separately.	Gabe Black
	This makes sure that the address ranges requested for caches and uncached ports don't conflict with each other, and that accesses which are always uncached (message signaled interrupts for instance) don't waste time passing through caches.
2010-01-31	configs/inorder: add options for switch-on-miss to inorder cpu	Korey Sewell

2009-09-22	python: Move more code into m5.util allow SCons to use that code.	Nathan Binkert
	Get rid of misc.py and just stick misc things in __init__.py Move utility functions out of SCons files and into m5.util Move utility type stuff from m5/__init__.py to m5/util/__init__.py Remove buildEnv from m5 and allow access only from m5.defines Rename AddToPath to addToPath while we're moving it to m5.util Rename read_command to readCommand while we're moving it Rename compare_versions to compareVersions while we're moving it. --HG-- rename : src/python/m5/convert.py => src/python/m5/util/convert.py rename : src/python/m5/smartdict.py => src/python/m5/util/smartdict.py
2009-03-04	InOrder didnt have all it's params set to a default value, which is now ↵	Korey Sewell
	required for M5 objects; Also, a # of values need to be reset to 0 (or the appropriate value) before we assume they are OK for use.
2009-02-10	InOrder: Import new inorder CPU model from MIPS.	Korey Sewell
	This model currently only works in MIPS_SE mode, so it will take some effort to clean it up and make it generally useful. Hopefully people are willing to help make that happen!
