Hi folks. The existing mechanisms for supporting pseudo instructions in the fast model based CPUs won't work, and so a new mechanism is needed. Also, because there are already a few different ways to call pseudo instructions, it would be nice to consolidate or at least coordinate them, and to avoid having to build magic, system specific addresses into the m5 utility binary. Here is a design doc I wrote about that:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1I7Jaj5_HssMSlvf-QKL1IsuBvV0Bm6a64At5vjhMIhU/edit?usp=sharing This is focused on fast models, but also proposes a way to rework/expand how pseudo instructions are called in general and the m5 utility so that they're a little easier to use across the board.
