Hi Andreas, I am not sure if you have added the tFAW and tRRD in SimpleDRAM. I saw the slides on MICRO tutorial that tFAW had been completed but I didn't find any change in the latest code.

Please remember though that there is nothing "cycle accurate" about the controller model in DRAMSim2, so the question is what it really gives you. I would argue that there is a distinction to be made between accuracy and precision, but perhaps that's just me :-) The SimpleDRAM model in gem5 is far more general (and much faster) as it attempts to be a truthful representation of the controller, but only models the DRAM by means of timings. If you really care about the cycle-level DRAM behaviour, I would even suggest getting traces out of gem5 (the CommMonitor can do this for you) and then replay them on an RTL implementation of a real DRAM controller.

I want to study the cycle accurate behavior of memory. As far as I know, there is no support for such a thing inside the gem5 itself.
