Subject: Re: [marss86-devel] problem in running marss
To: pooja arora <[email protected]>
My mistake, I have not used the splash image before, I didn't realize it
wasn't a qcow2. You are correct, just use the .img file as your -hda
argument.
To avoid the ROM errors, please run marss from a directory level one up
from where you are now (i.e. from the marss/ folder).
Your command will look something like
qemu/qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /home/pooja/splash.qcow2 -m 4G
This is the easiest way to avoid these errors.
After you get to the login screen, you can enter in your login information
(root/root). Once you are at the terminal, you can do something like:
./start_sim ; ls ; ./stop_sim
This will launch the simulation, run the ls command, and then stop the
simulation.
If you run the parsec bechmarks, since they have the ROI information in
them, you will not need to run start_sim first. Just use the parsecmgmt
command to start a parsec benchmark. For example, I have a shell script
that executes parsec:
cd parsec-2.1
source env.sh
export PARSEC_CPU_NUM=$OMP_NUM_THREADS
export PARSEC_CPU_BASE=0
parsecmgmt -a run -x roi -c gcc-hooks -p facesim -i simlarge -n
$OMP_NUM_THREADS
