Hi, I am not very familiar with the implementation of timebuffer but they are used for communication between pipeline stages. If they are full, the pipeline will be stalled.
I remember there are some good discussion about time buffer in the mailing list. Searching timebuffer in the archive give me this post: http://www.mail-archive.com/gem5-users%40gem5.org/msg06573.html Hope it may help.
