Hello, I've been working with Gem5 full-system with MESI_CMP_Directory and I just wanted to verify a few configuration parameters. Based on the documentation on the website, I see that --num-l2caches creates a shared L2 cache structure split among the number of cores (which equals the # of cores when using a Mesh with Garnet) and I was hoping to verify this is indeed true. Also, I looked through the source code to figure out the details behind l2_size; based on looking at Options.py, MESI_CMP_directory.py, and Cache.py I believe the l2_size is per l2 cache slice. I.e. if we have 8 cores with 1024kB set as l2_size, then we'll have a total cache size of 8MB. Is this indeed the case?
Thanks, Karthik
