Hello everyone,

I need to measure the latency/bandwidth of data exchange between two ARM 
machines
connected with an Ethernet link in a gem5 full system simulation.

I cannot simply use Ping/Netperf, because this data exchange has to be done 
using
DMA/zero-copy/OS bypass.

Implementing this is normally not difficult and there are existing 
libraries/solutions,
for example http://www.ntop.org/products/pf_ring/dna/

However, I'm not sure how to approach this problem with gem5. My first 
fundamental
question is - can I actually achieve this with gem5? If yes, then probably it's 
not as simple
as, e.g., compiling the above software and running it on gem5?

Any advice on how to achieve this would be highly appreciated.

Thanks for any help,
Maciej
