	This patch classifies all ports in Python as either Master or Slave and enforces a binding of master to slave. Conceptually, a master (such as a CPU or DMA port) issues requests, and receives responses, and conversely, a slave (such as a memory or a PIO device) receives requests and sends back responses. Currently there is no differentiation between coherent and non-coherent masters and slaves. The classification as master/slave also involves splitting the dual role port of the bus into a master and slave port and updating all the system assembly scripts to use the appropriate port. Similarly, the interrupt devices have to have their int_port split into a master and slave port. The intdev and its children have minimal changes to facilitate the extra port. Note that this patch does not enforce any port typing in the C++ world, it merely ensures that the Python objects have a notion of the port roles and are connected in an appropriate manner. This check is carried when two ports are connected, e.g. bus.master = memory.port. The following patches will make use of the classifications and specialise the C++ ports into masters and slaves.

	Clean up some minor things left over from the default responder change in rev 9af6fb59752f. Mostly renaming the 'responder_set' param to 'use_default_range' to actually reflect what it does... old name wasn't that descriptive in the first place, but now it really doesn't make sense at all. Also got rid of the bogus obsolete assignment to 'bus.responder' which used to be a parameter but now is interpreted as an implicit child assignment, and which was giving me problems in the config restructuring to come. (A good argument for not allowing implicit child assignments, IMO, but that's water under the bridge, I'm afraid.) Also moved the Bus constructor to the .cc file since that's where it should have been all along.
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
2008-07-16	mem: use single BadAddr responder per system.	Steve Reinhardt
	Previously there was one per bus, which caused some coherence problems when more than one decided to respond. Now there is just one on the main memory bus. The default bus responder on all other buses is now the downstream cache's cpu_side port. Caches no longer need to do address range filtering; instead, we just have a simple flag to prevent snoops from propagating to the I/O bus.

2007-05-27	Move SimObject python files alongside the C++ and fix	Nathan Binkert
