Hi Sudarshan, 

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, you are right I am talking about a multi-
threaded case. And yes, I intend to use my OOO to behave as both OOO and 
InO. That is my final goal, but initial task would be to switch between the 
OOO and InO gem5 cores dynamically. 

Okay, I did not know that FS mode supports multi-threading since from 
whatever discussion I came across, they all discuss that FS doesn't support 
it and suggest the use of SE (the latest discussion on this I came across is 
from mid-2013). So is this some recent addition?

Next, when you say gem5 does not support a full-fledged InO model do you 
mean that I will then not be able to do multi-threading on it. As I said, as 
a first task I would want to use the OOO and InO separately and switch 
between them dynamically. So would this task be tough to implement with the 
current model?

Also, if FS mode does indeed support multi-threading, is there some specific 
ISA which is know to support it or is it not ISA specific?

Thanks a lot for your inputs!!

Cheers,
Gokul
