Hi Avais,
Are you using any kind of prefetcher? Requests issued by a prefetcher
won't have a valid PC either.
Generally the PC is stored in the request object of a packet. If the
request has been instantiated and initialized in the memory system
(e.g., writebacks, prefetches), it won't have a valid PC.
Thanks,
Nikos

Dear Nikos,
Many thanks for your reply. Actually, I wanted to see
the Program counter value of Load/Store instructions that brought blocks
in L2 cache
For evicted blocks from L1 cache, i have copied the Program counter
value in Request of Packet in writebackblock() function. Now, I can see
the Program counter of L2 blocks brought into L2 because of writeback miss
Problem is for blocks brought into L2 because of miss in L2. For some
benchmarks(astar, gobmk), i see invalid PC value for many packets.
How can i modify gem5 to get valid PC value for blocks brought into L2
because of miss in L2
Many Thanks,
Best Regards,
Avais

Hi Avais,
If I remember correctly, this is expected. Evictions, for example, won't
have a valid program counter.

For the packets you are getting invalid program counter, can you
check
is it read or write packet?

Dear All,

some points in gem5.
For some packets, i am getting invalid program counter value(in
