Hi Ayaz,
yes, my goal is to analyze the execution of multiple independent workloads on a single hardware platform. Additionally, I need to be able to either adapt these workloads or add new workloads during the simulation, because the execution (results) of a workloads can influence when other workloads should be simulated.

Also, I am assuming you want to study the interaction of multiple workloads, and that's why you do not want to run multiple independent simulations (gem5 processes). Please, let me know if that is not your use case. -Ayaz On Tue, Feb 14, 2023 at 11:45 PM Sebastian Weber < <mailto:sebastian.we...@fzi.de> sebastian.we...@fzi.de> wrote: Hi Ayaz, is it possible to use gem5 in the way described in my previous mail? I need to be able to dynamically add binaries to the current workload of gem5 while other binaries are still running and to get statistics specific for single binaries, despite multiple binaries being executed simultaneously.

My goal is to be able to initiate the execution of a binary in a FS simulation independently of currently running binaries, so I can’t use exit events. Keeping the control in the python script should be possible by only simulating a certain amount of cycles each step and managing the simulation between these steps, but I can’t change the workload from the python script without having to start another simulation. A predefined workload (board.set_kernel_disk_workload(…)) won’t work therefore. Best regards, Sebastian Von: Ayaz Akram < <mailto:yazak...@ucdavis.edu> yazak...@ucdavis.edu> Gesendet: Montag, 30.

Going to python script should not simulate another system, rather once you go back to the simulation loop your simulation will resume from the point where it stopped. One way of what you are trying to achieve is to execute m5 utility (with the exit input for example, more on m5: <https://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/m5ops/> https://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/m5ops/) in the guest whenever one benchmark has finished. This will take stop the simulation and take the control to the python script where you can dump the stats (m5.stats.dump()), and then resume the simulation to execute the next benchmark. I will suggest taking a look at the following example script: <https://github.com/gem5/gem5/blob/stable/configs/example/gem5_library/x86-spec-cpu2006-benchmarks.py> https://github.com/gem5/gem5/blob/stable/configs/example/gem5_library/x86-spec-cpu2006-benchmarks.py -Ayaz On Mon, Jan 30, 2023 at 12:46 AM Sebastian Weber via gem5-users < <mailto:gem5-users@gem5.org> gem5-users@gem5.org> wrote: Hello, I am trying to use the current version of gem5 in full system mode interactively (--interactive) to be able to dump or reset statistics while connecting to the simulated console with m5term [1] (--listener-mode) to trigger the execution of executables. The goal is using gem5 in a co-simulation and being able to execute (multiple) binaries at arbitrary points in time during the simulation and getting binary-specific statistics after their execution. I use [2] as starting point but I can’t change workloads in the python script and rerun the simulation because this would simulate another system instead of simulating another executable in the same system. At the moment I am not able to trigger the execution of binaries with m5term and getting the statistics with the interactive mode, instead I always get empty statistics. My question is whether this setup of gem5 and m5term is able to generate statistics and if so, how to get them?
