Ok, that seems to make sense, being also a simpler approach, but where exactly it should be done? Objects are instantiated from python scripts, so I imagine you are thinking about a parameter for one of those scripts? Also, TLBs are instantiated from the CPU (itb and dtb), but I want to collect the TLBs of each cpu on the System. CPUs are instantiated in m5/simulate.py along other objects descending from Root, but I'm not sure how to retrieve the TLBs from there. I'm not really used to the Python/C++ mixture in the config, and grep search where the objects are instantiated is a bit hard. So it is not really clear to me how to proceed.

And if I finally manage to create that list, if it is a parameter on a script as mentioned, how can I make it accesible from the tlb.cc class?


Forget about python part of gem5 for the time being. Think purely from C++ point of view. You have a class named TLB. Whenever an object of this class is created you need to add it to a list. So, you need to create a list before any of the TLB objects have been created and you need to figure out when a TLB object is created. If you just think C++, you should be able to make out how to do both of these.
