hi, while studying cpu.hh in m5/build/ALPHA_SE/cpu/o3, I came across the
following

    /** Translates instruction requestion. */
    Fault translateInstReq(RequestPtr &req, Thread *thread)
    {
        return this->itb->translate(req, thread->getTC());
    }

    /** Translates data read request. */
    Fault translateDataReadReq(RequestPtr &req, Thread *thread)
    {
        return this->dtb->translate(req, thread->getTC(), false);
    }

    /** Translates data write request. */
    Fault translateDataWriteReq(RequestPtr &req, Thread *thread)
    {
        return this->dtb->translate(req, thread->getTC(), true);
    }

What exactly does the Fault class do, and what is it for?
