Hello,

I am doing atom core simulation with Marssx86 and Parsec benchmark suites.
However, for some benchmarks, they never finish. The log file has a lot of 'Invalid opcode ; split_invalid_basic_blocks ...; first_insn_in_bb? ' lines.

Has any body run into the same problem before?

The benchmarks run well with OOO cores.

Thank you very much!

The atom configuration is as follows:

core:
  atom4w:
    base: atom
    params:
        FETCH_WIDTH: 4

        AGU_FU_COUNT: 4
        DISPATCH_Q_SIZE: 32
        STORE_BUF_SIZE: 32
        FORWARD_BUF_SIZE: 64
        COMMIT_BUF_SIZE: 64

My log file is like this:
