Hello everyone,
I have a few questions about M5Threads. I am also trying to clarify in
my mind a few other things with respect to executing parallel programs
in M5. So, I hope that you can answer my questions and confirm whether I
have understood correctly the following things.
According to the README of M5Threads, the Alpha architecture is
currently not supported, because TLS support has not been added for this
architecture. Is this still true (the last change in the README was in
2009)? If so, any possibility that TLS support will be added?
It is also my understanding that if M5Threads are not supported, it is
not possible to execute a parallel program on M5 in SE mode. If so, this
means that for Alpha I can use only FS mode, which also requires the
full system files, right? But how do I add my executable files into
these system files? Do I have to use every time linux-dist to create
from scratch a new disk image? Or is it possible to somehow mount the
existing disk image and simply copy the new file there? Any recommended
procedure?
Thanks for any help!
Ioannis E. Venetis
