hi Mann,
I am not using multiprocessor simulation enough to advice you. But this
web page may be some help to you:
http://www.m5sim.org/Multiprogrammed_workloads
From my understanding if you want one program to use multiple
processor, you need to use FS (full system) mode and rely on OS (eg.
linux) for scheduling.
Thanks,
Sheng

Thanks Yang
I am doing the same to understand the flow, but I have very
basic/naive/foolish question that, when we assign a task for
multiprocessor simulation, how simulator understand/keep_info that it
is shared & can you please tell some simple multiprocessor
program/example that can be simulated for understanding.
Regards
Mann

when initiate the simulation use "gem5.opt --debug-flags=Cache",
it will print the traces of cache access.

Thnx Nilay
I may be naive, not able to understand few things
wrt my previous question & Your reply
Q1. If a var is shared between two processors, How data flow
happens & how to trace the same in simulation?
>> You will need to learn about how caches maintaining coherence.
Those .sm files implement the coherence protocol. You can use
debug flags to figure out how communication takes place between
different caches.
I have going throgh protocol/.sm files to understand Coherency &
data flow but couldn,t figure out:
- How simulator understands that a variable is shared?
- Can you refer Some simple multiprocessor program for simulation
so that I can observe data flow between caches.

Hi All
in Shared Multiprocessor Simulation, I understood that
simulator assigns sequencer to each process, but I need to
grab exact flow,
I want to understand how shared variables are used, and how
data flow between these processors.
(In detail : How virtual/physical page mapping is maintained
in simulator)
Could somebody suggest, where to look for this info.
Regards
Mann
