Changeset 10368:0e6691eee5f6 --------------------------- mem: Remove the GHB prefetcher from the source tree There are two primary issues with this code which make it deserving of deletion. 1) GHB is a way to structure a prefetcher, not a definitive type of prefetcher 2) This prefetcher isn't even structured like a GHB prefetcher. It's basically a worse version of the stride prefetcher. It primarily serves to confuse new gem5 users and most functionality is already present in the stride prefetcher.
