I solved that problem also.

This problem is basically related to gem5 versioning. I think after garnet
2.0, Gem5 should publish a new stable version.

This problem is related to below link-

https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/2380/

I also obtained the results for simple network with --n 4. However, I run
the simulation for more than 24 hours with 16 cores and still the program
is running!!!
Whereas, --n 4 with same benchmark simulation took around 2 hours to
complete. Please let me know if I am missing something.

Other than below options, rest of the options are default-

/build/ALPHA/gem5.opt configs/example/fs.py --cpu-type=timing
--script=script/blackscholes_4c_simsmall.rcS --num-cpus=16 --ruby
--mesh-rows=4 --network=garnet2.0 --topology=Mesh_XY --caches --l2cache
--l2_size=256MB --num-dirs=16 --num-l2=16 --l1d_size=32kB --l1i_size=32kB
--l1d_assoc=2 --l1i_assoc=2
--disk-image=/gem5/system/alpha/m5_system_2.0b3/disks/linux-parsec-2-1-m5.img


Thanks a lot...

Faisal
