/* @file
 * Header packet class for dist-gem5 runs.
 *
 * For a high level description about dist-gem5 see comments in
 * header file dist_iface.hh.
 *
 * The DistHeaderPkt class defines the format of message headers
 * sent among gem5 processes during a dist gem5 simulation. A header packet
 * can either carry the description of data packet (i.e. a simulated Ethernet
 * packet) or a synchronisation related control command. In case of
 * data packet description, the corresponding data packet always follows
 * the header packet back-to-back.
