You can't if the ISA you're using does any kind of micro-coding. The easiest 
thing is to just start the trace and throw away the first 1M lines. A slightly 
more complicated method is to set a max_insts_any_thread to 1M on the CPU and 
modify the simulation script to execute something like 
m5.debug.flags['Exec'].enable() and continue the simulation.
