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).

Block allocation can fail when there is an in-service MSHR that
operates on the victim block. This can happed due to:
* an upgrade operation: a request that needs a writable copy of the
block finds a shared (non-writable) copy of the block in the cache
and has allocates an MSHR for the pending upgrade operation, or
* a clean operation: a clean request finds a dirty copy of the block
and allocates an MSHR for the pending clean operation.
This changes relaxes an assertion to allow for the 2nd case (cache
clean operations).

Only a small quantity of prefetches were issued, as the positive
feedback mechanism was not implemented. This commit adds a new
action po_observeHit, which notifies the RubyPrefetcher of
successful prefetches and resets the prefetch flag.
When a cache line was replaced by a prefetch, the wrong queue could
be stalled. This commit adds a new event PF_L1_Replacement, which
stalls the correct queue.
The behavior when receiving a prefetch or instruction fetch while
in PF_IS_I (prefetch caused GETs, but got invalidated before the
response was received) was undefined. This was changed to drop the
prefetch request or change the state to non-prefetch, respectively.
This behavior is analogous to IS_I (non-prefetch caused GETs, but
got invalidated before the response was received) and the data case,
respectively.
In my local branch a major (20+%) performance increase can be
observed in SPEC2006 gobmk and leslie3d when enabling the
prefetcher. Some other benchmarks like bwaves, GemsFDTD, sphinx and
wrf show smaller (~10%) performance increases. Unfortunately, the
performance in most other SPEC benchmarks is still poor, most likely
as the prefetcher does not detect strides fast/often enough. In
order to push the change timely (most benchmarks have runtimes in
the order of days on my machine even with the smallest parameters)
after checkout, I have only run gobmk with the base repository
+ this commit. The results match those of my local branch.

Since b8b13206c8, the '.fast' build has failed to compile with an error
caused by a variable and an assert.
As a reminder, assert macros are optimized out of the build for '.fast'.
If an assert check requires a variable that is unused anywhere else in
the code, the compiler complains that the variable is unused and the
scons build fails. The solution is to add a M5_VAR_USED specifier to
tell the compiler to ignore the variable.

The current physical port proxy doesn't know how to tag memory
accesses as secure. Refactor the class slightly to create a set of
methods (readBlobPhys, writeBlobPhys, memsetBlobPhys) that always
access physical memory and take a set of Request::Flags as an
argument. The new port proxy, SecurePortProxy, uses this interface to
issue secure physical accesses.

A writeclean packet writes a dirty block to the memory below and
therefore sets the dirty flag for the block when the memory below is a

allowed. This changeset clears the writable flag from the cleaned
block to prevent the cache from satisfying future write requests
without sending a downstream request.

Rather than store the actual TLB entry that corresponds to a mapping,
we can just store some abstracted information (address, a few flags)
and then let the caller turn that into the appropriate entry. There
could potentially be some small amount of overhead from creating
entries vs. storing them and just installing them, but it's likely
pretty minimal since that only happens on a TLB miss (ideally rare),
and, if it is problematic, there could be some preallocated TLB
entries which are just minimally filled in as necessary.
This has the nice effect of finally making the page tables ISA
agnostic.

Using the architectural page table on x86 and the functional page table
on ARM, both with the twolf benchmark in SE mode, there was no
performance penalty for doing so, and again possibly a performance
improvement. By using a pointer instead of an inline instance, it's
possible for the actual type of the TLB entry to be hidden somewhat,
taking a step towards abstracting away another aspect of the ISAs.
Since the TLB entries are no longer overwritten and now need to be
allocated and freed, this change introduces return types from the
updateCache and eraseCacheEntry functions. These functions will return
the pointer to any entry which has been displaced from the cache which
the caller can either free or ignore, depending on whether the entry
has a purpose outside of the cache.
Because the functional page table stores its entries over a longer time
period, it will generally not delete the pointer returned from those
functions. The "architechtural" page table, ie the one which is backed
by memory, doesn't have any other use for the TlbEntrys and will delete
them. That leads to more news and deletes than there used to be.
To address that, and also to speed up the architectural page table in
general, it would be a good idea to augment the functional page table
with an image of the table in memory, instead of replacing it with one.
The functional page table would provide quick lookups and also avoid
having to translate page table entries to TLB entries, making
performance essentially equivalent to the functional case. The backing
page tables, which are primarily for consumption by the physical
hardware when in KVM, can be updated when mappings change but otherwise
left alone.
If we end up doing that, we could just let the ISA specific process
classes enable whatever additional TLB machinery they need, likely
a backing copy in memory, without any knowledge or involvement from
the ISA agnostic class. We would be able to get rid of the useArchPT
setting and the bits of code in the configs which set it.

This gets rid of an awkward NoArchPageTable class, and also gives the
arch a place to inject ISA specific parameters (specifically page size)
without having to have TheISA:: in the generic version of these types.

Several files in the repository were tracked with execute permissions
even though the files are just normal C/C++ files (and the one .isa).

Exclusive caches use the tempBlock to fill for responses from a
downstream cache. The reason for this is that they only pass the block
to the cache above without keeping a copy. When all requests are
serviced the block is immediately invalidated unless it is dirty, in
which case it has to be written back to the memory below.
To avoid unnecessary writebacks, this changeset forces mostly
exclusive caches to issuse requests that can only fetch clean data
when possible.

CPUs have historically instantiated the architecture specific version
of the TLBs to avoid a virtual function call, making them a little bit
more dependent on what the current ISA is. Some simple performance
measurement, the x86 twolf regression on the atomic CPU, shows that
there isn't actually any performance benefit, and if anything the
simulator goes slightly faster (although still within margin of error)
when the TLB functions are virtual.
This change switches everything outside of the architectures themselves
to use the generic BaseTLB type, and then inside the ISA for them to
cast that to their architecture specific type to call into architecture
specific interfaces.
The ARM TLB needed the most adjustment since it was using non-standard
translation function signatures. Specifically, they all took an extra
"type" parameter which defaulted to normal, and translateTiming
returned a Fault. translateTiming actually doesn't need to return a
Fault because everywhere that consumed it just stored it into a
structure which it then deleted(?), and the fault is stored in the
Translation object when the translation is done.
A little more work is needed to fully obviate the arch/tlb.hh header,
so the TheISA::TLB type is still visible outside of the ISAs.
Specifically, the TlbEntry type is used in the generic PageTable which
lives in src/mem.

Ruby has no support for atomic_noncaching accesses, which prevents using
it with kvm-cpu. This patch fixes this by directly forwarding atomic
requests from the ruby port/sequencer to the corresponding directory
based on the destination address of the packet.

GCC 7.2 is much stricter than previous GCC versions. The following changes
are needed:
* There is now a warning if there is an implicit fallthrough between two
case statments. C++17 adds the [[fallthrough]]; declaration. However,
to support non C++17 standards (i.e., C++11), we use M5_FALLTHROUGH.
M5_FALLTHROUGH checks for [[fallthrough]] compliant C++17 compiler and
if that doesn't exist, it defaults to nothing (no older compilers
generate warnings).
* The above resulted in a couple of bugs that were found. This is noted
in the review request on gerrit.
* throw() for dynamic exception specification is deprecated
* There were a couple of new uninitialized variable warnings
* Can no longer perform bitwise operations on a bool.
* Must now include <functional> for std::function
* Compiler bug for void* lambda. Changed to auto as work around. See
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82878
