	Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward declarations could have been used rather than a full include.

	Matching final version on reviewboard.
2015-03-23	sim: Reuse the same limit_event in simulate()	Curtis Dunham
	This patch accomplishes two things: 1. Makes simulate()'s GlobalSimLoopExitEvent a singleton reused across calls. This is slightly more efficient than recreating it every time. 2. Gives callers to simulate() (especially other simulators) a foolproof way of knowing that the simulation period ended successfully by hitting the limit event. They can call getLimitEvent() and compare it to the return value of simulate(). This change was motivated by an ongoing effort to integrate gem5 and SST, with SST as the master sim and gem5 as the slave sim.
2013-11-25	sim: simulate with multiple threads and event queues	Steve Reinhardt ext:(%2C%20Nilay%20Vaish%20%3Cnilay%40cs.wisc.edu%3E%2C%20Ali%20Saidi%20%3CAli.Saidi%40ARM.com%3E)
	This patch adds support for simulating with multiple threads, each of which operates on an event queue. Each sim object specifies which eventq is would like to be on. A custom barrier implementation is being added using which eventqs synchronize. The patch was tested in two different configurations: 1. ruby_network_test.py: in this simulation L1 cache controllers receive requests from the cpu. The requests are replied to immediately without any communication taking place with any other level. 2. twosys-tsunami-simple-atomic: this configuration simulates a client-server system which are connected by an ethernet link. We still lack the ability to communicate using message buffers or ports. But other things like simulation start and end, synchronizing after every quantum are working. Committed by: Nilay Vaish

	--HG-- rename : src/sim/host.hh => src/base/types.hh
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
