2018-06-01mem-cache: Privatize extractSetDaniel R. Carvalho
Only BaseSetAssoc uses extractSet(). Besides, skewed caches need the way information to know which set an address is located at.

2018-06-01mem-cache: Create an address aware TempCacheBlkDaniel R. Carvalho
tempBlock has its member variables manually set in order to allow it to be used in the block address regeneration function. This is not necessary, and ti can be simply given the address, so it does not need to be aware of set and tag. This will simplify implementation of sector and skewed caches.

2018-05-31mem-cache: Replace block visitor with std::functionNikos Nikoleris
This change modifies forEachBlk tags function to accept std::function as parameter. It also adds an anyBlk tags function that given a condition, it iterates through the blocks and returns whether the condition is met. Finally, it uses forEachBlk to implement the print, computeStats and cleanupRefs functions that also work for the FALRU class.

2018-03-22mem-cache: Split array indexing and replacement policies.Daniel R. Carvalho
Replacement policies (LRU, Random) are currently considered as array indexing methods, but have completely different functionalities: - Array indexers determine the possible locations for block allocation. This information is used to generate replacement candidates when conflicts happen. - Replacement policies determine which of the replacement candidates should be evicted to make room for new allocations. For this reason, they were split into different classes. Advantages: - Easier and more straightforward to implement other replacement policies (RRIP, LFU, ARC, ...) - Allow easier future implementation of cache organization schemes As now we can't assure the use of sets, the previous way to create a true LRU is not viable. Now a timestamp_bits parameter controls how many bits are dedicated for the timestamp, and a true LRU can be achieved through an infinite number of bits (although a few bits suffice in practice).
