I did that.
There are some differences and I attached them. In short, I see this:

old:
children=dcache dtb icache itb tracer workload

new:
children=dcache dtb icache interrupts itb tracer workload

Also the commitwidth, fetchwidth and some other parameters are 8 in the new
version, but they are 4 in the old version. So I really wonder why it has a
very low IPC.

I will be greatly thankful if someone else try that.
Also, I emailed another problem at
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.m5.devel/14987 about
"Unable to find destination for addr" which I encountered in the new
version.

Appreciate any idea.
