2010-11-19	SCons: Support building without an ISA	Ali Saidi

2010-08-17	sim: revamp unserialization procedure	Steve Reinhardt
	Replace direct call to unserialize() on each SimObject with a pair of calls for better control over initialization in both ckpt and non-ckpt cases. If restoring from a checkpoint, loadState(ckpt) is called on each SimObject. The default implementation simply calls unserialize() if there is a corresponding checkpoint section, so we get backward compatibility for existing objects. However, objects can override loadState() to get other behaviors, e.g., doing other programmed initializations after unserialize(), or complaining if no checkpoint section is found. (Note that the default warning for a missing checkpoint section is now gone.) If not restoring from a checkpoint, we call the new initState() method on each SimObject instead. This provides a hook for state initializations that are only required when not restoring from a checkpoint. Given this new framework, do some cleanup of LiveProcess subclasses and X86System, which were (in some cases) emulating initState() behavior in startup via a local flag or (in other cases) erroneously doing initializations in startup() that clobbered state loaded earlier by unserialize().
2010-08-17	sim: move iterating over SimObjects into Python.	Steve Reinhardt

2010-07-05	sim: fold StartupCallback into SimObject	Steve Reinhardt
	There used to be a reason to have StartupCallback be a separate object, but not any more. Now it's just confusing.
2009-05-17	includes: sort includes again	Nathan Binkert

2009-05-17	types: Move stuff for global types into src/base/types.hh	Nathan Binkert
	--HG-- rename : src/sim/host.hh => src/base/types.hh
2007-09-04	Config: Remove some ini file code that no longer works	Ali Saidi
	--HG-- extra : convert_revision : cb01dc0abeabc97b03d7af10959d92ceb62ea936
2007-08-02	python: Improve support for python calling back to C++ member functions.	Nathan Binkert
	Add support for declaring SimObjects to swig so their members can be wrapped. Make sim_object.i only contain declarations for SimObject. Create system.i to contain declarations for System. Update python code to properly call the C++ given the new changes. --HG-- extra : convert_revision : 82076ee69e8122d56e91b92d6767e356baae420a
2007-07-23	Major changes to how SimObjects are created and initialized. Almost all	Nathan Binkert
	creation and initialization now happens in python. Parameter objects are generated and initialized by python. The .ini file is now solely for debugging purposes and is not used in construction of the objects in any way. --HG-- extra : convert_revision : 7e722873e417cb3d696f2e34c35ff488b7bff4ed
2007-03-02	Factor code out of main.cc and main.i into a bunch of files	Nathan Binkert
	so things are organized in a more sensible manner. Take apart finalInit and expose the individual functions which are now called from python. Make checkpointing a bit easier to use. --HG-- extra : convert_revision : f470ddabbb47103e7b4734ef753c40089f2dcd9d
