2012-07-16 Thread Steve Reinhardt
You can simulate as many machines as you want, but you may or may not be able to hook them together like you want to. The barrier to simulating more than two machines on a standard network is that there is no Ethernet switch model, just a simple link. So you can hook two machines directly togethe

Yes, it is possible see fs.py and included .py s. you should create 3 (or more) "system" and make them child of "root" when simulating one system, "root" has only one child. see m5out/config.ini. Best Seyed Hossein On Tue, Jul 17, 2012 at 9:41 AM, Anirudh Sivaraman wrote: > Hi > > I was wonder

Hi I was wondering if there was a facility to simulate 3 or more networked CPUs within one GEM5 process. I am looking for something like --dual, but which generalises to >=3 processor instances. Anirudh ___ gem5-users mailing list gem5-users@gem5.org ht

Hi, Tony I followed the instructions in the webpage that you provided. Now, I can see the output file from the directory. However, when I tried to read the file (such as ls output_file), error was encountered: input/output error. Steps done: 1. Modify fsconfig.py #class CowIdeDis

Hi Anderson Because of Alpha was the basis architecture for M5, I suppose it is also valid for any cpu architecture: (from FAQ at http://www.m5sim.org/Frequently_Asked_Questions#How_many_CPUs_can_M5_run.3F) How many CPUs can M5 run? - There is no inherent limit in M5 (other than simulation s

You cannot see the output file when GEM5 using a extra file layer in which the output file will not be written to disk file. By running application in the linux on GEM5 directly instead of running script, You can specify the output file and use cat command to check the output. Regards, Zhiguo F

Hi Hao, The thing is I don't even know whether my PARSEC actually runs or not. Is there any way to tell that? In my original question, I ran two traces blackscholes and dedup, there is no difference in stats.txt file, IPC for each core are exactly the same. Even remove PARSEC script file (.rcS fil

Try removing the switchcpu command. Not sure whether it really works. If you do want to use simple CPU to fast forward to your program, I will suggest create a checkpoint and restore with O3 CPU. Bonzi On Mon, Jul 16, 2012 at 3:26 PM, Xi Chen wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm a little confused with th
