Hi Tony,

I guess you are referring to Giacomo Gabrielli (and not me); I will address 
your comments in any case.

Can I ask you


1) Which kind of tests are you talking about? We have run the regressions 
before posting the change and we didn't find any

issue. I will rerun them again just to double check


2) Are you running with upstream master or with your internal branch?


Thanks


Giacomo

Hi All,

I am getting a segfault almost immediately after simulation starts, I think due 
to this change: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/13105/5, 
as I'm attempting to merge master into our internal master branch.

What I see happening is that LSQUnit<Impl>::executeStore() calls 
LSQUnit<Impl>::checkViolations() and at some point DynInstPtr ld_inst = 
loadQueue[load_idx]; returns a DynInstPtr whose data is null.

I haven't looked at the recent changes to the DynInst and RefCountingPtr 
closely, but I'm guessing somehow the reference count for the obj is not 
tracked properly at some point and the object is deleted.

Giacomo, do you have any idea what could be causing this? In the meantime, I'll 
do some debugging to try to understand the issue better.

Thanks,
Tony
