This patch changes the default behaviour of the SystemXBar, adding a
snoop filter. With the recent updates to the snoop filter allocation
behaviour this change no longer causes problems for the regressions
without caches.

This patch improves the snoop filter allocation decisions by not only
looking at whether a port is snooping or not, but also if the packet
actually came from a cache. The issue with only looking at isSnooping
is that the CPU ports, for example, are snooping, but not actually
caching. Previously we ended up incorrectly allocating entries in
systems without caches (such as the atomic and timing quick
regressions). Eventually these misguided allocations caused the snoop
filter to panic due to an excessive size.
On the request path we now include the fromCache check on the packet
itself, and for responses we check if we actually have a snoop-filter
entry.

This patch takes yet another step in maintaining the clusivity, in
that it allows a mostly-inclusive cache to hold on to blocks even when
responding to a ReadExReq or UpgradeReq. Previously the cache simply
invalidated these blocks, but there is no strict need to do so.
The most important part of this patch is that we simply mark the block
clean when satisfying the upstream request where the cache is allowed
to keep the block. The only tricky part of the patch is in the memory
management of deferred snoops, where we need to distinguish the cases
where only the packet was copied (we expected to respond), and the
cases where we created an entirely new packet and request (we kept it
only to replay later).
The code in satisfyRequest is definitely ready for some refactoring
after this.

This patch changes how the mostly exclusive policy is enforced to
ensure that we drop blocks when we should. As part of this change, the
actual invalidation due to the clusivity enforcement is moved outside
the hit handling, to a separate method maintainClusivity. For the
timing mode that means we can deal with all MSHR targets before taking
any action and possibly dropping the block. The method
satisfyCpuSideRequest is also renamed satisfyRequest as part of this
change (since we only ever see requests from the cpu-side port).

This patch adds a FromCache attribute to the packet, and updates a
number of the existing request commands to reflect that the request
originates from a cache. The attribute simplifies checking if a
requests came from a cache or not, and this is used by both the cache
and snoop filter in follow-on patches.

When using a Ruby memory system, the Ruby configuration scripts expect
to get a list of DMA ports to create the necessary DMA sequencers. Add
support in the utility functions that wire up devices to append DMA
ports to a list instead of connecting them to the IO bus. These
functions are currently only used by the VExpress_GEM5_V1 platform.

The behavior of WFI is to cause minor to cease evaluating
pipeline logic until an interrupt is observed, however
a user may wish to drain the system while a core is sleeping
due to a WFI. This patch makes WFI drain. If an actual
drain occurs during a WFI, the CPU is already drained and will
immediately be ready for swapping, checkpointing, etc. This
should not negatively impact performance as WFI instructions
are 'stream-changing' (treated like unpredicted branches), so
all remaining instructions are wrong-path and will be squashed
rapidly.

The ELF loader currently has an assertion that checks if the size of a

Currently garnet will not run due to double statistic registration of new
stats in ClockedObject. This occurs because a temporary array named 'cls'
is being added as a child to garnet internal and external link SimObjects.
This patch simply renames the temporary array which prevents it from
being added as a child object and avoids the assertion that a statistic
was already registered.

Sync DRAMPower to external tool
This patch syncs the DRAMPower library of gem5 to the external

In this new hmc configuration we have used the existing components in gem5
mainly [SerialLink] [NoncoherentXbar]& [DRAMCtrl] to define 3 different
architecture for HMC.
Highlights
1- It explores 3 different HMC architectures
2- It creates 4-HMC crossbars and attaches 16 vault controllers with it.
This will connect vaults to serial links
3- From the previous version, HMCController with round robin funtionality
is being removed and all the serial links are being accessible directly
from user ports
4- Latency incorporated by HMCController (in previous version) is being
added to SerialLink

This patch changes how the embedded swig code is loaded to ensure that
gem5 works with swig 3.0.9. For Python 2.7 and above, swig 3.0.9 now
relies on importlib, and actually looks in the appropriate packages,
even for the wrapped C code. However, the swig wrapper does not
explicitly place the module in the right package (it just calls
Py_InitModule), and we have to take explicit action to ensure that the
swig code can be loaded. This patch adds the information to the
generated wrappers and the appropriate calls to set the context as
part of the swig initialisation.
Previous versions of swig used to fall back on looking in the global
namespace for the wrappers (and still do for Python 2.6), but
technically things should not work without the functionality in this
patch.

Add helper functions to dump the guest kernel's dmesg buffer to a text
file in m5out. This functionality is split into two parts. First, a
dmesg dump function that can be used in other places:
void Linux::dumpDmesg(ThreadContext *, std::ostream &)
This function is used to implement two PCEvents: DmesgDumpEvent and
KernelPanic event. The only difference between the two is that the
latter produces a gem5 panic instead of a warning in addition to
dumping the kernel log.
