Hi All, We are announcing the alpha release of gem5-gpu, which we presented at the gem5-users workshop last December. gem5-gpu has been developed independently from cpu-gpu-sim, previously mentioned on the mailing list.
gem5-gpu combines the CPU and memory system models from gem5 and the GPU model from GPGPU-Sim. Some features include: * Support for running unmodified x86 CUDA binaries * Syscall emulation and full system modes * GPU coherence protocols * APU and discrete GPU-CPU memory system configurations gem5-gpu is currently alpha software, therefore it is slightly rough around the edges. We are working towards a beta release with Tor Aamodt's GPGPU-Sim group, which will more tightly integrate gem5 with GPGPU-Sim by defining a set interface. This should allow gem5-gpu to more easily track the latest versions of both GPGPU-Sim and gem5. We hope to release the beta version of gem5-gpu later this year. Details about gem5-gpu and instructions for getting the code can be found at http://gem5-gpu.cs.wisc.edu. Another useful resource is the presentation we gave at the gem5-users workshop, which can be found on the gem5 wiki at http://gem5.org/User_workshop_2012. Questions and discussions can be directed to our mailing list: gem5-gpu-...@googlegroups.com Thanks, Jason Power, Joel Hestness, Marc Orr, Mark Hill, David Wood ------ Jason Power University of Wisconsin-Madison, Department of Computer Sciences powe...@cs.wisc.edu
