Hi Ardash,

I'm not sure if it ever makes sense to disable a core coming out of a
checkpoint. What would happen to all of the architectural state of that
core? Would the process that's running on the core just die?

I haven't ever tried this, but you may be able to emulate this by using the
"switched_out = True" parameter to the CPUs you want to disable after the
checkpoint is restored. With that option, the CPU won't execute any
instructions.

Hi,
I am running gem5 in SE mode and have checkpointed multi-programmed
workloads at a specific region of interest.
When I restore from the checkpoint i would like to "shut-off"/disable 1 or
more cores? Alternatively, run no-ops on these cores or perhaps turn off
fetching instructions for this core.

Is there a simple way to do this?

Thanks in advance.
