Hi Uday,
The alarm event is used to check if any of the sockets that gem5 is waiting on have any activity (e.g. gem5 terminal, vnc server, ...). If you don't want to connect anything to a running process it probably isn't necessary, and if you do you could probably come up with an alternate solution if it's causing you a lot of trouble.
