Hi Korey, I was wondering if there is any development on the front of ARM in-order models. I saw your e-mail from early June (below), are there any updates since then?
Also, I tried the OOO -> In Order conversion trick by scaling down width (fetch, decode, commit, etc) and/or buffers, but my configuration breaks from that. Could you please send me a working configuration of an OOO core that performs similar to an In Order core?

Wait a few months for the ARM InOrder patch from myself or others. ===> There is some legal clearing I have to do (I'm not a full-time student anymore!). However, it's my goal to post relevant patches into the tree. I anticipate that done at least by the next gem5 workshop but please don't "quote" me on that! _______________________________________________ gem5-users mailing list [email protected] http://m5sim.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gem5-users
