2015-08-03misc: Coupling gem5 with SystemC TLM2.0Matthias Jung
Transaction Level Modeling (TLM2.0) is widely used in industry for creating virtual platforms (IEEE 1666 SystemC). This patch contains a standard compliant implementation of an external gem5 port, that enables the usage of gem5 as a TLM initiator component in SystemC based virtual platforms. Both TLM coding paradigms loosely timed (b_transport) and aproximately timed (nb_transport) are supported. Compared to the original patch a TLM memory manager was added. Furthermore, the transaction object was removed and for each TLM payload a PacketPointer that points to the original gem5 packet is added as an TLM extension. For event handling single events are now created. Committed by: Nilay Vaish <nilay@cs.wisc.edu>
