I see. So does that (1) mean I will be able to access web pages and download
files from real internet into gem5? I won't have to mess around manually
simulating every single internet access?
I saw an old post from 2013 where it says there is no internet inside gem5,
that's why I am asking all
1. Yes. You can also use the ethernet bridge to bridge the network within
gem5 out to the host network so you can access the "real" network/internet.
2. Yes, caches are separate components, so you can add in caches as you
want, and configure their properties.

I see. Thank you. Another few questions if I may:
1. Docs say that gem5 has NIC devices and two simulated instances can simulate
Ethernet connection. Would it be possible to set up a simulation of web
browser? I read that there is no internet connection inside gem5, that's why I
am asking.
Hi Pavel.
1. Yes, this is possible, I've done that as part of my work. The (a?) hard
part is getting the software set up correctly, but gem5 as it is should be
able to run it. Be warned that android is a big, complex system and can
take a long time to boot and run on gem5, which can be
My apologies, I forgot to mention that I am looking to perform full system
simulation while collecting the hardware counters.
