I am currently trying to use the gem5 prefetcher and have edited the CacheConfig.py file to include the default StridePrefetcher()
attached to both the data and the l2 cache. However, I am always receiving 0's for all prefetcher data in the stats.txt file and can't seem to figure out why. I have set up both like dcache = dcache_class(size=options.l1d_size assoc=options.l1d_assoc,prefetcher=StridePrefetcher()) and have tried even overriding the configuration. there are no errors in the simulation output so I am confused why I am not getting any values. I have put the l2 cache as low as 250kB and receive a 96% miss rate, and yet no prefetch. Any help would be appreciated.
