Before I try to get a better understanding of the code, can you explain what's
the purpose of multi_etherlink object?  Can you provide an actual entity this
object is trying to emulate?

The multi_etherlink models a NIC at a high level - sending and receiving 
packets.  Each gem5 instance running in multi-gem5 will be using one to talk to 
the other instances.




Do you think it would be better to call it a NIC?
