Hi Dimitrios, I have run the command and the gcc.rcS script below but the script doesn't stop at 1000 instructions. Any help would be appreciated.
The command is: ./build/X86/gem5.fast ./configs/example/fs.py --maxinsts=1000 --kernel=/home/abdkhail/linux_new/vmlinux --disk-image=/home/abdkhail/ubuntu16.img --script=configs/boot/benchmark/gcc.rcS --mem-size=3GB --num-cpus=4 --cpu-clock=2GHz --caches --l2_size=2MB --l1i_size=32kB --l1d_size=32kB --checkpoint-restore=3 The gcc.rcS is: cd /home/ubuntu/cpu/benchspec/CPU2006/403.gcc/run/run_base_ref_amd64-m64-gcc42-nn.0000 /sbin/m5 resetstats ./gcc_base.amd64-m64-gcc42-nn 166.i -o 166.s /sbin/m5 dumpstats #echo "Done :D" /sbin/m5 exit Best Regards ________________________________ From: Dimitrios Chasapis <dchas...@bsc.es> Sent: Friday, January 17, 2020 8:57 PM To: ABD ALRHMAN ABO ALKHEEL <abdkeel...@hotmail.com>; gem5 users mailing list <gem5-users@gem5.org> Subject: Re: [gem5-users] Run CPU 2006 benchmark on gem5 fs mode No, it should take a couple of hours tops (for me it was like half an hour I think). Try using gdb as Giacomo suggested and also maybe share the command you used to run gem5. You can also run gem5 and attach a terminal (look at the wiki of how to do this). This will give you interactive access to gem5, while running, and maybe you can see this way where it gets stuck, if that's the case.

There may be some clues of the error there as well if the commands in the rcs script are not correct or you have any missing dependencies in your disk image, for whatever reason. You can also try to first generate simpoints etc for a simple program, something like a simple loop in C, so that we can figure out if the problem is in the SPEC or gem5.

You will need to use simpoints in order to create checkpoints for you code. After that you basically segment your code into smaller, say 1000000 instructions per segment, which you can run. Check the link I sent in my previous message. However note that you will need to run the code for each benchmark twice, once for generating the simpoint files and once to set the checkpoints. For me this can take up to 4 week for the larger codes, and a few days for the smaller ones in SPEC CPU 2017. Once you have the checkpoints though, it should take a couple of hours. I don't know if there is a faster way to do this, maybe someone else has a better suggestion. On 1/10/20 1:19 AM, ABD ALRHMAN ABO ALKHEEL wrote: Hi Dimitrios, I appreciate your help.

As Ciro told you, first you need to have a bootable image, optionally create a checkpoint after boot and finally add the benchmarks to the cd image. #/bin/bash cd /your/path/SPEC_CPU_2017/benchspec/CPU/627.cam4_s/run/run_base_refspeed_aarch64-64.0000 /sbin/m5 dumpresetstats /yourpath/SPEC_CPU_2017/benchspec/CPU/627.cam4_s/exe/cam4_s_base.aarch64-64 /sbin/m5 exit In the example above you simply cd to the directory of the benchmark you want to use and then run it. /sbin/m5 dumperesetstats resets your statistics counters and exit is used to finish the execution. Note I use spec 2017, which I found that it's best to run directly as I do above than use their infrastructure. Problem is that FS is too slow and you waste a lot of time running their python scripts. Also, I would encourage you to learn about simpoints<http://gem5.org/Simpoints> if you plan on running SPEC CPU 2006 with anything more than the test inputs. Running with ref will take days/weeks.
