use the new get_target_description() when initializing the target inside
TargetManager, instead of manually searching through results of
list_target_descriptions().
- Make sure TargetManager.finalize() actually gets called at the end
of the run.
- Overrule the "diconnect" parameter behavior for gem5 and make sure it
always disconnects. This necessary for stats to be generated properly.
Gem5Platform requires a host output directory as one if it's
instantiation parameters. This is not something we want to expose a
configuration parameter to the user, as for WA, the standard output
directory ought to be used.
Up to this point, WA's target instatiation process assumed that all
parameters came from the user, and there was no way for WA itself to set
them. This commit adds extra_platform_parms argument to
instantiate_target, to remedi this.
extra_platform_parms is then used to set the host output directory for
gem5 appropriately.
Before performing feature discovery on a device, all cores are attempted to be
onlined, however due to power management on some phones, cores can be immediately
hotplugged out again therefore causing the command to file. This commit now just
logs a message to warn that the online process failed and the information obtained
from a device may be incomplete.
- Workload's update_result stage has now been broken up into two parts:
extract_results and update_output. This is to allow the assistant to
pull output from the target in between the two stages.
- Updated assistant implementations for Linux and Android targets from
the exisiting code.
- Extended target descriptor code to handle assistants and their
parameters as well.
- Updated the target manager to actually make use of the assistants.
Changing the way target descriptions work from a static mapping to
something that is dynamically generated and is extensible via plugins.
Also moving core target implementation stuff under "framework".
