Title:
User-mode QEMU is not deterministic
Status in QEMU:
Expired
Bug description:
QEMU in user-mode (linux-user or bsd-user) has no way to get the
equivalent of the "-icount" argument found in softmmu mode.
It is true that some system calls in user-mode can prevent
deterministic execution, but it would be very simple to patch time-
related syscalls to return a number based on icount when in
deterministic mode.
Putting both changes together (icount + time-related syscalls) would
cover the needs for deterministic execution of most benchmarks (i.e.,
those not interacting with the network or other programs in the
system).
