Hi Victor, It MAY result in different results depending on which components you are using in gem5. As stated in my post you cited, the main random number generator which is seeded by seedRandom (random_mt) is not always used in gem5, which is an issue. Also, not every component in gem5 support randomization. If you are using Ruby, you should observe different outputs with different seeds though.
If the component you use support randomization but use the wrong number generator, replace it with random_mt (src/base/random.hh). If you think that some components could add some randomness but don't, you can add it yourself. Typically, you can add random delays to packets when ordering is not a functional requirement. Take a look at MessageBuffer::enqueue for an example.
