As the comment in trace_cpu.cc and hh says, "Uses a memory trace to drive the provided memory hierarchy." I don't think this code even compiles anymore, but that's what it once did. We've done some more work on feeding traces to m5 recently so we probably could commit some working code if you need it.
There's no built-in facility for generating traces from m5, though it's not hard to add. The details have been discussed on this list in the not too distant past.
