Hi all, We've had plenty of demand for an x86 disk image containing PARSEC binaries, so this morning, I cleaned one up and uploaded it to our PARSEC on gem5 website. Currently, it is known that not all of the benchmarks work (e.g. facesim, ferret and vips are known to fail, and rtview is not on the image). That said, I've thoroughly tested blackscholes, bodytrack, canneal, dedup, fluidanimate, freqmine, streamcluster, swaptions and x264, and I can confirm that they work correctly in recent versions of gem5. If you spend any time on the rest of the benchmarks to get them to work, we would really appreciate if you could contribute back binaries that can be added to the disk image (*Note: these binaries are built from PARSEC v2.1 source, and we'd like to update to v2.3 for benchmarks that have changed).
I've updated the PARSEC on gem5 site (http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~parsec_m5/), and you can download the new disk image here: http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~parsec_m5/x86root-parsec.img.bz2 Thanks, Joel -- Joel Hestness PhD Student, Computer Architecture Dept. of Computer Science, University of Wisconsin - Madison http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~hestness/
