This is an interesting feature if we could have in gem5. Actually, we have done the same work in enabling parallel/distributed simulation of a cluster using gem5. Please refer to a recently published paper on this for more information: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?arnumber=7114236&filter%3DAND%28p_IS_Number%3A4357966%29
I'll submit our patch to review-board soon. Hopefully we can consolidate the work and integrate the best of both works into gem5.
