Hi all,
I'm trying to run PARSEC with native input on ALPHA FS. I used the PARSEC binary files with self-checkpoint from the UT-Austin TR. Though the checkpoint/restore scheme works find for some benchmarks like blackscholes/canneal/dedup, I failed to restore the checkpoints generated by some other benchmarks like freqmine/streamcluster/swaption/vips/x264. For these failed checkpoint restoration, the ALPHA FS terminal (I used m5term 3456) shows the error message of: ==== m5 slave terminal: Terminal 0 ==== HOOKS] Entering ROI Illegal instruction For example, the checkpoint of freqmine is made at tick 2286071338500, but the simulation exits due to "Illegal instruction" at tick 2286549049000. However, if I ran these benchmarks from the beginning without any checkpoint/restore, it seems that the simulation can pass the "Illegal instruction" at tick 2286549049000 without any problem. May I ask for any comment/suggestion on this issue? BTW, I noticed that, the UT-Austin guys use "m5_checkpoint(0,0)" in the source code to do the self-checkpoint. But, one of the previous threads suggest using "m5_checkpoint(1,0)". Will this difference possibly cause some issues? Thank you! Best, Rio Xiangyu
