Re: [gem5-users] Debugging std::bad_alloc memory errors in gem5
Thank you, Ciro. Turned out that by disabling most of the (classic) cache stat handlers, I was able to free up a lot of memory.

[gem5-users] Getting response packets from the slave component via CommMonitor()
Hi all, >From my understanding,* master simObjects (CPUs, GPUs) generate requests *to the slave simObjects(L1private split cache, membus, L2 cache etc.), slaves responses to the requests. I want to see both *requests* and *response* packets. I have attached a communication monitor in addPrivateSplitL1Caches function of BaseCPU.py which I believe captures packets only in one direction: CPU to L1_data_cache . ... #Communication Monitor between l1d cache and the CPU #self.dcache_port = dc.cpu_side self.monitor = CommMonitor() self.monitor.trace = MemTraceProbe(trace_file='CPU'+str(self)+'.trc') self.dcache_port = self.monitor.slave self.monitor.master = dc.cpu_side My first question is how to get the response packets? Like the response packets from the L1_data_cache to CPU. My second query is, tell me if I am wrong: I need following information from a packet: 1 . sender of the packet 2. receiver of the packet 3. command of the packet 4. physical memory address(if any) In the decoded packets I find packet id (which I assume refers to master/sender (1)), the place where I place the commMonitor() tells me who is the receiver of the packet(2), and decoding the packet gets me (3) and (4). Please correct me if I am doing/assuming anything wrong here. Please see the config.dot.svg to see the system I am simulating. My 3rd query is: the communication monitor I attached has been attached between cache(L1) and the CPU? Thanks for reading my long email. Any help will be highly appreciated.

[gem5-users] How to Changed Commmonitor output?
if Commmonitor exist between L1D cache and CPU, output is Packet information encoding protobuf. Output file Packet Information is this link https://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/cpu_models/TraceCPU . By changing commmonitor, I would also like to see information about the data contained in the packet as an output file. modifying comm_monitor.cc or commmonitor.py ___ gem5-users mailing list gem5-users@gem5.org http://m5sim.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gem5-users

Re: [gem5-users] Run APK on Gem5
You have to either fully boot Android on fs.py or find some userland setup which I don't know about for SE. I don't have a fully automated Android boot setup, so just try it out and tell if it fails and how. For plain Java, it is much more likely that you will be able to run in SE: but will need to implement some missing syscalls, might be easy: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58399259/running-java-programs-in-gem5or-any-language-which-is-not-c and for sure booting Ubuntu and running it there in FS will work.
