I think this should work fine to generate the *.bb.gz

Hi Dear Dimitrios,
I run the CPU2006 benchmark on gem5 in FS mode for 1000 instructions
as follows:
The command is :
./build/X86/gem5.fast ./configs/example/fs.py --mem-size=3GB
--kernel=/home/abdkhail/linux4.19/vmlinux
--disk-image=/home/abdkhail/ubuntu16.img
--script=configs/boot/benchmark.rcS --simpoint-interval 1000
The benchmark.rcS
#!/bin/sh
cd
/home/ubuntu/cpu/benchspec/CPU2006/473.astar/run/run_base_ref_amd64-m64-gcc42-nn.0000/astar_base.amd64-m64-gcc42-nn
/sbin/m5 dumpresetstats
cd
/home/ubuntu/cpu/benchspec/CPU2006/473.astar/exe/astar_base.amd64-m64-gcc42-nn
/sbin/m5 exit
I am wondering if that works well! any help or update would be
appreciated.
Best Regards

I am not sure if this is possible in FS, at least not the same way you
do in SE. You will need to use simpoints in order to create
checkpoints for you code. After that you basically segment your code
into smaller, say 1000000 instructions per segment, which you can
run. Check the link I sent in my previous message. However note that
you will need to run the code for each benchmark twice, once for
generating the simpoint files and once to set the checkpoints. For me
this can take up to 4 week for the larger codes, and a few days for
the smaller ones in SPEC CPU 2017. Once you have the checkpoints
though, it should take a couple of hours. I don't know if there is a
faster way to do this, maybe someone else has a better suggestion.

Hi Dimitrios, I appreciate your help. How I can run the benchmark for
one million instruction in the FS mode. In SE mode I used -I 1000000

Hi,
Here is an example of an .rcs script. As Ciro told you, first you
need to have a bootable image, optionally create a checkpoint after
boot and finally add the benchmarks to the cd image.
#/bin/bash
cd
/your/path/SPEC_CPU_2017/benchspec/CPU/627.cam4_s/run/run_base_refspeed_aarch64-64.0000
/sbin/m5 dumpresetstats
/yourpath/SPEC_CPU_2017/benchspec/CPU/627.cam4_s/exe/cam4_s_base.aarch64-64
/sbin/m5 exit
In the example above you simply cd to the directory of the benchmark
you want to use and then run it. /sbin/m5 dumperesetstats resets
your statistics counters and exit is used to finish the execution.
Note I use spec 2017, which I found that it's best to run directly as
I do above than use their infrastructure. Problem is that FS is too
slow and you waste a lot of time running their python scripts. Also,
I would encourage you to learn about simpoints
<http://gem5.org/Simpoints> if you plan on running SPEC CPU 2006 with
anything more than the test inputs. Running with ref will take
days/weeks.
Best,
Dimitrios Chasapis

The linked documentation runs an arbitrary benchmark of your choice.
You just have to add SPEC CPU to the image yourself as explained
there. I can't fully automate SPEC CPU build because it is closed source.

Subject: Re: [gem5-users] Run CPU 2006 benchmark on gem5 fs mode
1. get Linux to boot, e.g.:
https://github.com/cirosantilli/linux-kernel-module-cheat/tree/657c59249e56d861bb0a437a1b1c757797281910#gem5-buildroot-setup
2. learn to checkpoint at the end of boot, restore, and run an
executable afterwards, e.g.:
https://github.com/cirosantilli/linux-kernel-module-cheat/tree/657c59249e56d861bb0a437a1b1c757797281910#gem5-run-benchmark
3. learn to add your own files to the image, e.g.:
https://github.com/cirosantilli/linux-kernel-module-cheat/tree/657c59249e56d861bb0a437a1b1c757797281910#add-new-files-to-the-buildroot-image
