Hi, This question is probably for Gabe: I'm currently implementing checkpointing for x86, and I have run into a question about inheritance with a couple x86-specific devices. src/dev/x86/i8042.hh defines a PS2Device, which doesn't inherit from anything, but it looks like the PS2Keyboard and PS2Mouse have state that might need to be checkpointed (e.g. mouse status in the case that Linux enables/disables it). Should PS2Device descend from SimObject? (if so, through a particular subclass of SimObject?) Thanks, Joel
