When a register in the extended trace was dereferenced and the value
was smaller than the memory pool size, but the address was not mapped
an assertion occured and the tracing plugin terminated the
simulator. Now the dereferenced memory address is checked for being
mapped and not being smaller than the memory pool.

The ElfImporter is not a real trace importer, but we locate it
into the import-trace utility, since here the infrastructure is
already in place to import things related to an elf binary into
the database.
The ElfImporter calls objdump and dissassembles an elf binary
and imports the results into the database.

The internal m_iponly / m_memonly bools are a bit hackish; especially it's
unclear what should happen if both are set. The m_tracetype enum now
encompasses all possible configurations, while the plugin's user interface
remains unchanged.

This change implements what the source-code comment already promised but
didn't keep: As we only record time deltas instead of absolute time values,
prevtime must not be overwritten unless the current delta was really added
to the trace. This has caused timing information to be stored incorrectly
if certain events were skipped (e.g., because they didn't match the memory
map configured by the user).

Richard noticed that instr2 values are off by one when done with the
MemoryImporter vs. with his own importer. The core problem is that
the dynamic instruction counter in the Importer base class
(Importer::copy_to_database, instruction_count_t instr) gets increased
*after* reporting an IP event to the importer implementation; this has
the side-effect that memory access events have a +1 dynamic
instruction count offset with regard to the IP event of the
instruction they belong to.
Bottom line: IP events and all memory events belonging to that
instruction should have the same dynamic instruction number.
Christian argued for the numbers starting with 0, which, as a side
effect, relativizes the repercussions of the change introduced in the
previous commit, as the new "first" event gets the sequence number 0
now.
- All experiments and importers only dealing with memory accesses
(MemoryImporter) are affected by this change: The dynamic
instruction count now starts with 0 instead of 1. Together with
the previous commit, the only change is one additional dynamic
instruction at position 0. Note that existing trace files do not
have this additional instruction, which shifts all trace positions
by 1.
- All importers that process *only* IP events (InstructionImporter,
RandomJumpImporter, RegisterImporter) won't see any difference.
Commit 036e340, though, introduced a +1 offset.
- Experiments that use these instruction counts for navigating to
the target instruction must be checked to properly deal with the
dynamic instruction #0 (no forwarding necessary). All dynamic
instruction offsetting should now work uniformly for both memory
accesses and all other fault models. To be sure everything works
in order, sanity-check the current absolute instruction pointer
right before fault injection.

When starting the tracing plugin (simulator.addFlow()), at the moment
the *current* dynamic instruction (e.g., the one the start symbol
points to) is skipped, and tracing commences with the second
instruction. This change records an additional instruction event at
the trace begin.
Note that this change affects all tracing-plugin users. The first
event gets recorded when starting the plugin (simulator.addFlow()).
This avoids compatibility/off-by-one issues when recording traces with
the generic-tracing experiment vs. with custom experiments.

This reverts commit 036e340bd9.
Problems with this one were:
- Broken event timings. m_prevtime wasn't reset to m_curtime in
TracingPlugin::handleSingleIP(), resulting in a large deltatime
being recorded for the second event, too. This effectively
doubled the experiment's start time.
- Code repetition (copy/pasted for special handling of first event),
making planned changes (advanced tracing for IP events) more
difficult.
- Unnecessary additional tracing-plugin interface method.

Without this change, import-trace won't recognize, e.g., the -e and -t
parameters if they come after a parameter that was added by the Importer:
import-trace -i objdump --objdump arm-none-eabi-objdump -e B.elf -t C.tc

When using the generic-tracing experiment for generating a trace, the
first event, after the tracing is started (the start-symbol) is lost
in the trace. This patch handles this special case seperately.

The RegisterImporter splits each register into 1 byte chunks. The
--do-not-split flag prohibits this splitting. Be aware, that def/use
pruning won't work correctly in mixed-width cases (EAX/AX/AH/AL).

During the prune step the data_width of the injected location was not
propagated before. It is now stored in fsppilot (database layout change!) and
sent in the fsppilot protobuf message.

There's one fspgroup entry for every trace entry, the pilot_id is
therefore *not* part of the (unique) primary key. If this had been
right in the first place, it would have revealed an equivalence-based
fault-space pruning bug early ... :-/
Change-Id: I449d4985645c6631c0a8db0c64510364677b1354
If you only need raw failure counts, no-effect write equivalence classes
are redundant and only slow down access to the trace and fspgroup tables.
This switch prevents any accesstype='W' entries from finding their way into
the trace table.

Initially this was implemented by directly passing through trace
events to the MemoryImporter, keeping a record of conditional jumps
and opcodes, and UPDATEing all inserted rows in a second pass when the
MemoryImporter is finished.
Unfortunately, UPDATE is very slow, and keeping all information in
memory till the end doesn't scale indefinitely. Therefore the
implementation now delays passing memory access events upwards to the
MemoryImporter only until enough branch history is aggregated, and
taps into Importer's database operations with a set of new virtual
functions that are called downwards.

This tool can now import extended trace information with the
--extended-trace command-line parameter. The existing importers cease
using artificial access_info_t objects in favor of passing through the
original Trace_Event wherever possible. This allows us to import
extended trace information for all importers.
