Hi,
I would guess that if your prefetchers predict different addresses then
you will naturally access different blocks during the two runs.
Does that make sense?

Hi
I have a concern about gem5 simulator consistency and will be glad for
any help. Thing is, I have implemented two different prefetchers, but
with the same binary and command lines, I see that different block
addresses are accessed.
However which block is accessed must be a function of the program
binary itself (e.g the assembly code) and not the cache structure or
simulator.
In short, gem5 can change the program execution path!
