Hi all,

I was trying to run PARSEC and SPLASH-2 benchmarks in ALPHA FS mode with Ruby 
in the newest Gem5.

However, I've run into this error message:


warn: Prefetch instructions in Alpha do not do anything
info: Entering event queue @ 2618625984500.  Starting simulation...
Writing checkpoint
info: Entering event queue @ 2618625986000.  Starting simulation...
panic: Possible Deadlock detected. Aborting!

[wakeup:build/ALPHA/mem/ruby/system/Sequencer.cc, line 122]
Memory Usage: 1739068 KBytes
Program aborted at cycle 2618875986000

I ran this simulation with different protocols, such as MOESI_CMP_directory, 
MESI_cmp_directory, and MOESI_hammer. But, all simulations ran into same 
deadlock problem. I used 64 core on mesh topology with 8 mesh row. I've also 
ran with both detailed and timing cpu types.
I have searched the mailing list, but I could not find a solution. It worked 
with old Gem5 version, I'm not sure why it's doing this in newest Gem5. Do you 
have any suggestion what I should do to solve this problem?


Thanks.


Best,

Here is the command line that I've used for the simulation.


build/ALPHA/gem5.fast --outdir=m5out/network/fft/ configs/example/ruby_fs.py 
--cpu-type=timing --num-cpus=64 --caches --l2cache --l1d_size=32kB 
--l1d_size=32kB --l2_size=8MB --num-dirs=64 --num-l2caches=64 --topology=Mesh 
--mesh-rows=8 --garnet-network=fixed --checkpoint-dir=m5out/network/fft/ -b fft
