The recent changes to make MessageBuffers SimObjects required them to be
initialized in a particular order, which could break some protocols. Fix this
by calling initNetQueues on the external nodes of each external link in the
constructor of Network.
This patch also refactors the duplicated code for checking network allocation
and setting net queues (which are called by initNetQueues) from the simple and
garnet networks to be in Network.

The eventual aim of this change is to pass RubySystem pointers through to
objects generated from the SLICC protocol code.
Because some of these objects need to dereference their RubySystem pointers,
they need access to the System.hh header file.
In src/mem/ruby/SConscript, the MakeInclude function creates single-line header
files in the build directory that do nothing except include the corresponding
header file from the source tree.
However, SLICC also generates a list of header files from its symbol table, and
writes it to mem/protocol/Types.hh in the build directory. This code assumes
that the header file name is the same as the class name.
The end result of this is the many of the generated slicc files try to include
RubySystem.hh, when the file they really need is System.hh. The path of least
resistence is just to rename System.hh to RubySystem.hh.

This member indicates whether or not a particular virtual network is in use.
Instead of having a default big value for the number of virtual networks and
then checking whether a virtual network is in use, the next patch removes the
default value and the protocol configuration file would now specify the
number of virtual networks it requires.
Additionally, the patch also refactors some of the code used for computing the
virtual channel next in the round robin order.

This patch begins the process of removing global variables from the Ruby
source with the goal of eventually allowing users to create multiple Ruby
instances in a single simulation. Currently, users cannot do so because
several global variables and static members are referenced by the RubySystem
object in a way that assumes that there will only ever be a single RubySystem.
These need to be replaced with per-RubySystem equivalents.
This specific patch replaces the global var g_ruby_start, which is used
to calculate throughput statistics for Throttles in simple networks and
links in Garnet networks, with a RubySystem instance var m_start_cycle.

The changeset ad9c042dce54 made changes to the structures under the network
directory to use a map of buffers instead of vector of buffers.
The reasoning was that not all vnets that are created are used and we
needlessly allocate more buffers than required and then iterate over them
while processing network messages. But the move to map resulted in a slow
down which was pointed out by Andreas Hansson. This patch moves things
back to using vector of message buffers.

This patch is the final patch in a series of patches. The aim of the series
is to make ruby more configurable than it was. More specifically, the
connections between controllers are not at all possible (unless one is ready
to make significant changes to the coherence protocol). Moreover the buffers
themselves are magically connected to the network inside the slicc code.
These connections are not part of the configuration file.
This patch makes changes so that these connections will now be made in the
python configuration files associated with the protocols. This requires
each state machine to expose the message buffers it uses for input and output.
So, the patch makes these buffers configurable members of the machines.
The patch drops the slicc code that usd to connect these buffers to the
network. Now these buffers are exposed to the python configuration system
as Master and Slave ports. In the configuration files, any master port
can be connected any slave port. The file pyobject.cc has been modified to
take care of allocating the actual message buffer. This is inline with how
other port connections work.

This message size type does not work well with one of the statistical
variables. It also seems unnecessary.

The Topology class in Ruby does not need to inherit from SimObject class.
This patch turns it into a regular class. The topology object is now created
in the constructor of the Network class. All the parameters for the topology
class have been moved to the network class.

Many Ruby structures inherit from the Consumer, which is used for scheduling
events. The Consumer used to relay on an Event Manager for scheduling events
and on g_system_ptr for time. With this patch, the Consumer will now use a
ClockedObject to schedule events and to query for current time. This resulted
in several structures being converted from SimObjects to ClockedObjects. Also,
the MessageBuffer class now requires a pointer to a ClockedObject so as to
query for time.

This patch makes some of the members (profiler, network, memory vector)
of ruby system non-static.

This patch adds and removes included files from some of the files so as to
organize remove some false dependencies and include some files directly
instead of transitively.

This patch rpovides functional access support in Ruby. Currently only
the M5Port of RubyPort supports functional accesses. The support for
functional through the PioPort will be added as a separate patch.

Moved the buffer_size, endpoint_bandwidth, and adaptive_routing params out of
the top-level parent network object and to only those networks that actually
use those parameters.

Moved the Topology class to the top network directory because it is shared by
both the simple and Garnet networks.

The necessary companion conversion of Ruby objects generated by SLICC
are converted to M5 SimObjects in the following patch, so this patch
alone does not compile.
Conversion of Garnet network models is also handled in a separate
patch; that code is temporarily disabled from compiling to allow
testing of interim code.

This mostly was a matter of changing the license owner to Princeton
which is as it should have been. The code was originally licensed
under the GPL but was relicensed as BSD by Li-Shiuan Peh on July 27,
2009. This relicensing was in an explicit e-mail to Nathan Binkert,
Brad Beckmann, Mark Hill, David Wood, and Steve Reinhardt.

This was done with an automated process, so there could be things that were
done in this tree in the past that didn't make it. One known regression
is that atomic memory operations do not seem to work properly anymore.
