Hello all, I've uploaded a commit that re-joins the debug header files into a single one: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/39255. This means that instead of having to include a different header for each and every debug flag used in a file, only one is needed. For example, in src/arch/arm/kvm/arm_cpu.cc | #include "debug/Kvm.hh" |
| #include "debug/KvmContext.hh" | #include "debug/KvmInt.hh" would be replaced by #include "debug/flags.hh" Finally, since most of the code using these flags will use DPRINTF or a similar macro, this include could be added to base/trace.hh, so that most of the times it would be included transitively. The advantage of this change is that debugging becomes easier/faster: this file would behave as a library of supported flags and very few header files would suffice for all debugging needs. The disadvantage is that every time a commit introduces or removes a debug flag debug/flags.hh will be recompiled, which will cause an almost complete build. Luckily, debug flags are not frequently modified. Performance-wise both approaches are similar. What are your opinions in this matter? Cheers,Daniel
