Hi Abu Saad, The correct variable to change is in uArchImpl.cpp. It is local to each core. You can look at where it is used in cycle.cpp. In those same methods, you can change the value locally for each core. The options variable is only read once, at the beginning of simulation, into each retireWidth in uArchImpl.
