[gem5-users] Problem in using m5threads for multithreaded program
I am trying to use the m5threads library for running a multithreaded program in gem5. I am also cross compiling my program. My host is "x64" and target is "arm". I have some doubts: 1. After running the makefile it creates a directory libpthread.a in the m5threads directory and gives me the following warning: :~/Desktop/m5thread/m5threads$ make gcc -O3 -static -c -o pthread.o pthread.c pthread.c: In function ‘pthread_create’: pthread.c:256:3: *warning: implicit declaration of function ‘clone’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]* * clone(__pthread_trampoline, tcb->stack_start_addr, CLONE_VM|CLONE_FS|CLONE_FILES|CLONE_SIGHA* * ^* ar rv libpthread.a pthread.o ar: creating libpthread.a a - pthread.o *make: Warning: Archive 'libpthread.a' seems to have been created in deterministic mode. '' will always be updated. Please consider passing the U flag to ar to avoid the problem.* rm pthread.o Does the above warning needs to be considered? If so what should I do? 2. After making the m5threads, how to link my program to it? For example for using pthread library, I have to use "gcc -pthread". 3. Do I need to make any changes in my program to use the m5threads? Thank you. ___ gem5-users mailing list gem5-users@gem5.org http://m5sim.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gem5-users
[gem5-users] Problem running some SPEC2006 Benchmarks
Hi All, I am testing SPEC 2006 benchmarks in gem5. Most of them are working just fine but few of them giving errors like: Cannot open input file x even I specified file path in Mybench.py file and also made sure that file exists in particular folder. Some benchmarks that give problem include: 410.bwaves, 453.povray, 416.gamess etc Any ideas how to fix these issues? Also what is the difference between folders "ref", "test" and "train" specified in "data" folder in each benchmark? Will appreciate any response :) Muzamil ___ gem5-users mailing list gem5-users@gem5.org http://m5sim.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gem5-users
[gem5-users] Fixes for PyBind issues
Hi Everyone, Some of our internal users recently ran into various issues related to the new PyBind wrappers. These are the issues I'm aware of: * Events implemented in Python aren't reference counted correctly. There are cases where the Python side of an event gets deallocated, but not the native object. The native object gets confused when the event fires. * The --debug-start and --debug-stop options broke because of API changes in Python events. * Some uses of vectors of address ranges cause out-of-range memory accesses in the Python bindings. These sometimes manifest themselves as a std::bad_alloc exception. From what we have seen, these only occur for debug builds. I have posted fixes for all of the issues above on the pybind/fixes [1] topic and a set of patches to upgrade to PyBind 2.1.1 [2]. //Andreas [1] https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/#/q/topic:pybind/fixes+(status:open+OR+status:merged) [2] https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/#/q/topic:pybind/v2.1.1+(status:open+OR+status:merged) IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.
