Re: [gem5-users] Question on Network_test (networktest.cc) to test GARNET

another question. When injecting synthetic traffic we control the injection rate via the --injectionrate argument. Is it possible to control the injection rate of benchmark traffic too? Thanks, Pavan On Apr 30, 2012, at 12:02 PM, Tushar Krishna wrote: Hmm, you probably need to take a look at src

Re: [gem5-users] Question on Network_test (networktest.cc) to test GARNET

Hi Pavan, A couple of things to note: 1) 0.01 is an average injection rate. So a node *could* inject more than 10 packets (but not a lot more). The implementation is basically a bernoulli trial, where every cycle you generate a random number and decide to inject or not based on whether it is les

Re: [gem5-users] Replacing Garnet

Take a look at src/mem/ruby/network/garnet (where all the garnet source files exist) and src/configs/ruby/Ruby.py (where garnet is instantiated). You should edit the SConscript file in the src/mem/ruby directory to make sure your simulator gets built. - Tushar On Apr 25, 2012, at 12:24 AM, Mono

Re: [gem5-users] #VNs in MOESI_Directory

Hi Monobrata, To see the number of VNs required by each protocol, you should take a look at its .sm files. Take a look at src/mem/protocol/MOESI_CMP_directory-L1cache.sm, src/mem/protocol/MOESI_CMP_directory-L2cache.sm, src/mem/protocol/MOESI_CMP_directory-dir.sm and src/mem/protocol/MOESI_CMP_

Hi Nilay, Ah yes, I don't think that memory is being deallocated. Looking at memtest/memtest.cc after which networktest was modeled, I believe this needs to be done in the completeRequest(PacketPtr pkt) function right? -- Request *req = pkt->req; Ne

Re: [gem5-users] (garnet question) tester generates load only on 1st virtual network

Hi Dean, The number of vnets that get traffic ultimately depend on the coherence protocol. When you ran Simics, the coherence protocol you built will determine how many vnets are active and what kinds of traffic they carry. If you are using the GEMS network tester, the traffic injector code in T

I am not too familiar with the current state of the debug flags. The ruby README might be outdated. Try to search for how the debug flags work within the other modules. On 03/22/2012 05:57 PM, Dean Michael Ancajas wrote: On Thu, Mar 22, 2012 at 3:41 PM, Tushar Krishna <mailto:

Hi Dean, The OutputUnit does not wake up when the flit has to leave the router (it only wakes up to receive credits). It is the switch that wakes up and schedules the output link. The SWallocator_d removes winning flits from their respective input VCs and places them in the switch buffer. The

Re: [gem5-users] bug at NetworkLink_d pointers??

Hi Dean, Looking at the code, I can see that NetworkLink_d has 2 constructors: one where just the id is passed, and is used when CreditLink_d links are created, and one where the network pointer is passed when NetworkLink_d is created. In the latter case, GarnetNetwork_d passes the "this" pointer
