Dear all, I am interested in simulating heterogeneous-ISA systems, i.e. platforms in which two or more different ISA processors (no GPUs!) coexist. E.g. ARM and x86.
I had a look at the following page, but is dated 2006.. http://www.m5sim.org/Heterogeneous_System_Support Then at http://gem5.org/Projects I found MV5 and gem5-gpus. Both MV5 and gem5-gpus seems to be more about CPU-GPU (well MV5 have many other features about multicore). I finally found a Google summer of code page http://m5sim.org/wiki/index.php/Google_Summer_of_Code in which there is a mention about heterogeneity, focused about Cell type architectures. I am wondering what is the current status of heterogeneous ISA support on GEM5 and which is the effort needed to support heterogeneous-ISA processing (e.g. ARM and x86)? many thanks, Antonio -- Dr. Eng.
