There is a "max_insts_any_thread" available in the CPU models...

If you want it on the command line, you have to add the option to your
configuration script. There is an example in the configs/example/se.py in
the development repository (m5-dev) that has "--max_insts" available on the
command line.

Note that CPU parameters can be viewed in "src/cpu/BaseCPU.py" (Wouldnt it
be nice to view this info. from the command line? Sort of like an extended
help menu type thing).

So if you were using the se.py, you might edit it to say:
MyCPU.max_insts_... = X

Hope that helps,
Korey
