Hello, I like the idea of GEM5_ONCE, but as it would become part of the API users could definitely use in unforeseen ways (e.g., debugging). I am not saying this is a bad thing, but it is something to consider. Regards,Daniel ___ gem5-dev mailing list

[gem5-dev] Re: Build failed in Jenkins: nightly #307

Hi, Bobby, Previous to that patch, enabled() (now tracing()) checked if the flag was globally enabled and if it had been individually enabled, and the tracing check was done elsewhere (DTRACE(flag) did that). Now tracing() is checking both conditions AND if tracing is on, which is likely a

[gem5-dev] Re: gem5 namespace

As mentioned by Gabe in the Jira issue, some of the namespaces using snake declared in the codebase case are defined as parts of a standard, and thus cannot be modified. Realistically, this means that if we wanted to follow a namespace naming convention, it'd be snake case: despite having way

[gem5-dev] gem5 namespace

Hello, devs, We currently have a recurring issue, which is the lack of a gem5 namespace.This generates collision with other libraries and user code. A Jira ticket has been created to point out the issue last year: https://gem5.atlassian.net/jira/software/c/projects/GEM5/issues/GEM5-730 And

Hello all, I've uploaded a commit that re-joins the debug header files into a single one: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/39255. This means that instead of having to include a different header for each and every debug flag used in a file, only one is needed. For example, in
