Hi Mike,
When you say KVM enabled, I presume you mean running the KvmCPU? As Mitch
points out the problem is that you need something to attach the SimPoint
probe to, and the KvmCPU does not have that functionality.

I was hoping to be able to get simpoints out of a KvmCPU run.
It seems like that is not possible.
Is it possible to generate checkpoints using the KvmCPU?
If so, I can run the benchmark once with the kvm, generating checkpoints
every N billion instructions.
I can then run each of
That is doable. You can created checkpoints, there is just no way to
instrument every basic-block.

Hi Mike,
I'm the one who wrote the initial version of the simpoint
collection/generation a few years ago. I enforced the fastmem option
primarily because I didn't see it necessary to simulate caches during
simpoint generation and it made simulation faster. You can simply disable
this and it
