Hello,

I wanted to confirm the stats that I should be looking at when using
switchcpu and FastFwd in the script file / command line option.

Having a script file as such:

cd myprograms/bench8/compiled_O2/threads4/set_threads_cpu
/sbin/m5 switchcpu
/sbin/m5 dumpstats
/sbin/m5 resetstats
./micro8_alpha_FS_sharedarray_v2_threads4_fixed_threadscpu_explicit 5
/sbin/m5 exit
/sbin/m5 exit


and the command line:

./build/ALPHA_FS/m5.opt ./configs/example/fs.py -n 4
--script=./my_scripts/microbenchmarks/bench8/access_5/compiled_O2/threads4/set_threads_cpu/micro8_alpha_FS_v2_fixedthreads_explicit.rcS
-d --caches --l2cache -F 5000000000

the resulting stats file that generates has 2 sets of Begin/End
Simulation Statistics.

I assume that the second set of Begin/End Stats corresponds to the
actual benchmark that is running, while the first is the one that
corresponds to the Kernel BootUp. However, in the second set of Stats
there are some stats with the abbreviation: system.switch_cpusX  as
well as stats with the abbreviation: system.cpuX (X == core number)

In regards to the actual benchmark stats, am I correct in that those
with system.cpuX is where I should focus on? If so, what do the
switchcpu stats correspond to?

Thanks

Malek
