Nilay, Please be more professional when responding to questions. If you have a particular idea on how to fix the problem, we would appreciate if you described it rather than leaving us a trail of breadcrumbs.
Please note that your patch, 10311, is the one that breaks the tenet that ClockedObjects, which include ports, are MemObjects. It is unfortunate that our regression tester does not test config.ini loading with ruby and did not realize that the SimpleNetwork is different than all other ClockedObjects. However, I do not believe revision 10458 is at fault here. Rather it is SimpleNetwork's unconventional use of ports. We appreciate your help on this matter. Important work is currently blocked on this bug.

Joe, src/sim/cxx_manager.cc did not used to exist until revision 10458. So, you are completely incorrect on whatever you think is broken. Compare the functions src/python/swig/pyobject.cc:connectPorts() and CxxConfigManager::bindPort(). > > Since you're the author of a variety of changes to Network and > SimpleNetwork between when this was working and now, I thought you would > know fairly quickly what changed and why SimpleNetwork no longer works > in this framework.

Thanks! > I would really prefer that you learn how to figure out what a particular piece of code might be doing. Earlier I told you what files to compare. I have now told you what functions to compare. If you are still not able to figure out, I'll suggest another step towards the solution that I have in mind. -- Nilay _______________________________________________ gem5-dev mailing list gem5-dev@gem5.org http://m5sim.org/mailman/listinfo/gem5-dev _______________________________________________ gem5-dev mailing list gem5-dev@gem5.org http://m5sim.org/mailman/listinfo/gem5-dev
