I can probably get away with inclusion. Do you have support for this in
M5? I couldn't find any references to this in BaseCache.py, or do I need
to hack the c++ code?
No, there's no support for inclusion; you'd have to hack the c++.
In the longer run we would really like a more general network-based (not
just bus-based) coherence infrastructure; a big part of the v2 memory
system rewrite was to make that more feasible. We haven't really
started on actually implementing that though. There's been talk of
integrating Wisconsin's GEMS code but no action as of yet.
Contributions are welcome :-).
Yes, this would be very interesting. Also, I think that multi-level
cache coherence will become important to more people than just me in
the future. I haven't had the time to really look at v2 yet, but I hope
to move my work to it when it gets out of beta.
Yes, it's something we really want as well, it just hasn't bubbled to
the top of the to-do list yet. Seems like it's always floating
somewhere around #2 or #3...
