2019-04-28	mem: Minimize the use of MemObject.	Gabe Black
	MemObject doesn't provide anything beyond its base ClockedObject any more, so this change removes it from most inheritance hierarchies. Occasionally MemObject is replaced with SimObject when I was fairly confident that the extra functionality of ClockedObject wasn't needed.

2019-03-19	arch, cpu, dev, gpu, mem, sim, python: start using getPort.	Gabe Black
	Replace the getMasterPort, getSlavePort, and getEthPort functions with getPort, and remove extraneous mechanisms that are no longer necessary.

2015-03-02	mem: Split port retry for all different packet classes	Andreas Hansson
	This patch fixes a long-standing isue with the port flow control. Before this patch the retry mechanism was shared between all different packet classes. As a result, a snoop response could get stuck behind a request waiting for a retry, even if the send/recv functions were split. This caused message-dependent deadlocks in stress-test scenarios. The patch splits the retry into one per packet (message) class. Thus, sendTimingReq has a corresponding recvReqRetry, sendTimingResp has recvRespRetry etc. Most of the changes to the code involve simply clarifying what type of request a specific object was accepting. The biggest change in functionality is in the cache downstream packet queue, facing the memory. This queue was shared by requests and snoop responses, and it is now split into two queues, each with their own flow control, but the same physical MasterPort. These changes fixes the previously seen deadlocks.
2014-12-23	mem: Add MemChecker and MemCheckerMonitor	Marco Elver
	This patch adds the MemChecker and MemCheckerMonitor classes. While MemChecker can be integrated anywhere in the system and is independent, the most convenient usage is through the MemCheckerMonitor -- this however, puts limitations on where the MemChecker is able to observe read/write transactions.
