Hi Nilay, I didn't receive the email in person. I just read your reply in the digest email. Thanks for your reply.
A brief overview of the error is as follows: Step A --------- I used the following command to restore a checkpoint that was obtained using the fast mode. I executed only 1 M instructions and then took a ruby checkpoint. ./build/ALPHA_MOESI_hammer/gem5.opt -d /home/volos/volos_icfiler3/gem5_checkpoints/parsec/bodytrack_new configs/example/ruby_fs.py -n 2 -I 1000000 --checkpoint-restore=1 --l1i_size=32kB --l1d_size=32kB --l2_size=4MB --num-l2caches=2 --topology=Crossbar --restore-with-cpu=timing --checkpoint-at-end Output: info: Entering event queue @ 2573654899500. Starting simulation... Writing checkpoint info: Entering event queue @ 2573654901000. Starting simulation... Looking at the folder of the checkpoint, indeed the checkpoint is written correctly: ls ~/volos_icfiler3/gem5_checkpoints/parsec/bodytrack_new/cpt.2573654901000/ m5.cpt system.disk0.image.cow system.disk2.image.cow system.physmem.physmem system.ruby.cache.gz system.ruby.memory.gz What worries me about the output is that although the simulation should have exited after writing the checkpoint, it continued for Step B --------- Next, I tried to restore the above checkpoint using the following command: ./build/ALPHA_MOESI_hammer/gem5.opt -d /home/volos/volos_icfiler3/gem5_checkpoints/parsec/bodytrack_new configs/example/ruby_fs.py -n 2 -I 1000000 --checkpoint-restore=2 --l1i_size=32kB --l1d_size=32kB --l2_size=4MB --num-l2caches=2 --topology=Crossbar --cpu-type=detailed However, I got the following error: gem5.opt: build/ALPHA_MOESI_hammer/mem/ruby/system/MemoryVector.hh:227: void MemoryVector::populatePages(uint8*): Assertion `m_pages[i] == 0' failed.Program aborted at cycle 2573654901000 Aborted It seems that it cannot load the checkpoints properly. Am I doing something wrong? Regards and thanks, -Stavros.
