Bobby, You suggestion (number 3) worked, and I was able to run the compiled gem5.opt by fixing generator=generator. I did have an additional error which I corrected by:
motherboard._pre_instantiate() m5.instantiate() I am including the two runs (with error and no error). I have a couple of concerns. I used the docker commands in gem5-bootcamp-env to build a docker container that I used to run gem5. This seems to run in both WSL, and on my stand alone Ubuntu linux system. When I run via the docker I am root, so there may be some issues with root privilege. I don’t have a problem running version 22 in my class, but I am concerned that I don’t control that repository. I need to make sure that repository will remain stable while I teach with that version. If I have enough time to prepared, I will also see if I can get it running on the jetson orin nano system since we are providing them to our students. I think I disagree with statement 2. The build was following the example from Marjan Fariborz Cache Systems charts. I was in the gem5 directory (under the gem5-bootcamp-env directory). The argument –j16 indicates use all 16 cores. I am not sure why the statement: scons build/NULL_MESI_Two_Level/gem5.opt --default=NULL PROTOCOL=MESI_Two_Level –j16 Produces the error message: Error: No non-leaf 'build' dir found on target path. /home/besernd1/gem5-bootcamp-env/gem5/–j16 If I use: python3 `which scons` build/NULL_MESI_Two_Level/gem5.opt --default=NULL PROTOCOL=MESI_Two_Level -j16 Everything works correctly. Thank-you for your help, Nick Prior to the correction this is the error message: ./gem5/build/NULL_MESI_Two_Level/gem5.opt materials/using-gem5/04-cache-models/simple_cache_run.py 2 MESITwoLevel 512MB gem5 Simulator System. https://www.gem5.org gem5 is copyrighted software; use the --copyright option for details. gem5 version 23.0.0.1 gem5 compiled Jul 24 2023 20:02:58 gem5 started Jul 24 2023 20:15:44 gem5 executing on BESERND1-WL2, pid 11874 command line: ./gem5/build/NULL_MESI_Two_Level/gem5.opt materials/using-gem5/04-cache-models/simple_cache_run.py 2 MESITwoLevel 512MB Global frequency set at 1000000000000 ticks per second warn: No dot file generated.

The pre-commit hooks aren't being installed correctly. i think this is due to some directory permission error. The '/.cache' directory appears to not have the right permissions here. Perhaps this you did something here with sudo? You can recreate this error using "/util/pre-commit-install.sh". Either way it isn't necessary that these hooks are installed. If this step fails gem5 should still work. 2. The "error not "build' dir found on target path": I'm pretty sure you either didn't execute the this in the root of the gem5 directory or you made a typo when typing the scons command. The "-j16" at the end of that command makes me believe there was some kind of error with passing the `-j` flag and specifying the build path. 3. The "procesor" argument has been renamed to "generator" for the test board. I believe this is easily fixed. All you need to do is change https://github.com/gem5bootcamp/gem5-bootcamp-env/blob/1afde18b5c4240736507a68fd2e54351be31f30d/materials/using-gem5/04-cache-models/simple_cache_run.py#L98 to `generator=generator,`. It should be noted that the 2022 gem5 was build with v22.0 of gem5. If you're following the Bootcamp we strongly advise using v22.0 of gem5. There have been numerous codebase updates over the past year and we can't guarantee all of the tutorials will work as intended with the latest version. -- Dr. Bobby R.
