Hello, I am a newbee in using gem5. Before that I was using HORNET. I am reading your previous posts and answers but it takes time. I will do it eventually.
Now, my ultimate goal is to use gem5 with McPAT power model to simulate MPEG-2 decoder tasks ( something similar is already done ). Since I am new in all of these simulations, I will ask few general concept questions which bothers me. For many of you, this is going to be easy to answer. 1. I was able to install and ran the hello example, using the syntax provided in gem5 documentation. Now, I have to deploy MPEG-2 to it? I read that gem5 can simulate many of the software, but can you explain me how to deploy program with more source files, which one to reference in build command. For example, I tried this one http://libmpeg2.sourceforge.net/ 2. This bothers me a lot. My Professor want me to create the testing platform. So, he wants me to deploy MPEG-2 program and then he wants to ran a task inside of MPEG-2 and tracks the metrics at certain point of time and place( using check points may be the way for this) So, I do not understand how to deploy a task to already simulated program? I guess that this is trivial questions so, really apologize for not so mature questions. Thank you very much
