Hello, This is similar to the discussion thread from May 2008. My system config had 8 cores. Running M5 in SE mode. If I assign the same benchmark to multiple cores, only 1 cpu fetches and executes instructions. all others lock up. Only if I assign different benchmarks do all cpus fetch instruction correctly.
eg: (spec2006) a. 8 gcc - only 1 cpu executes b. 7 gcc, 1 astar - 1 cpu executes astar, and only 1 cpu executes gcc I assign the benchmarks in this way in the modified se.py file: ... newp0 = Mybench.astar newp1 = Mybench.astar_2 .... system.cpu[0].workload = newp0 system.cpu[1].workload = newp1 I changed the Mybench.py file to include different object names for the workload objects. #473.astar astar=LiveProcess() astar.executable = binary_dir + '/astar' astar.cmd = [astar.executable]+['rivers.cfg'] astar.cwd = data_dir + '/astar/ref/input/' astar.output = data_dir + '/astar/ref/output/rivers.out' #473.astar_2 astar_2=LiveProcess() astar_2.executable = binary_dir + '/astar' astar_2.cmd = [astar.executable]+['rivers.cfg'] astar_2.cwd = data_dir + '/astar/ref/input/' astar_2.output = data_dir + '/astar/ref/output/rivers.out' .... ... Now if I assign astar and astar_2 , and so on to the 8 cores, they seem to execute fine. (o3). all cpus fetch and execute correctly. can someone throw some light on this? - Sujay
