Changeset 9684:29748d82d15b --------------------------- cpu: Block traffic generator when requests have to retry This patch changes the queued port for a conventional master port and stalls the traffic generator when requests are not immediately accepted. This is a first step to allowing elasticity in the injection of requests. The patch also adds stats for the sent packets and retries, and slightly changes how the nextPacketTick and getNextPacket interact. The advancing of the trace is now moved to getNextPacket and nextPacketTick is only responsible for answering the question when the next packet should be sent.
All regressions pass with stats updates
