Hi, I am trying to run PARSEC benchmark on gem5. As told, I built my gem5 binary using
*scons build/ALPHA_FS/gem5.opt RUBY=true PROTOCOL=MOESI_CMP_directory* Then I downloaded the following files from this website http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~parsec_m5/ 1. PARSEC-2.1 Disk Image 2. .rcS Run Script Generator 3. PARSEC-2.1 Input Set File 4. Linux 2.6.27 Kernel Image (ALPHA) 5. Modified ALPHA PAL Code (Big Tsunami with more than 4 cores) I placed all these files in the path */tmp/path*. As given in the report I modified /configs/common/SysPaths.py line 53 to *path = [ '/dist/m5/system', '/tmp/path' ]* /configs/common/Benchmarks.py line 53 *return env.get('LINUX_IMAGE', disk('linux-parsec-2-1-m5-with-test-inputs.img'))* and also increased memory to 512MB from 128MB for mem(self) Then I ran the command *build/ALPHA_FS/gem5.opt configs/example/ruby_fs.py --num-cpus=4 --num-dirs=4 --num-l2caches=4 --topology=Mesh --mesh-rows=2 --garnet=fixed --kernel=/path/vmlinux_2.6.27-gcc_4.3.4 --script=/home/Desktop/runscript.rcS * The execution terminates saying *fatal: Could not load console file /tmp/path/binaries/console* I think I messed up the path field in configs/common/SysPaths.py line 53 path = [ '/dist/m5/system'*, 'where should this path point to??' *] Are there any other files that I need to download other than the ones that I already downloaded?
