Re: [gem5-users] Switching from Atomic CPU to Detailed CPU after Linux booted up

2014-09-03 Thread Prathap Kolakkampadath via gem5-users
Thanks Mitch. It worked.
Is it possible to verify if the system is running with switched cpu after
restore?

 Yes you can.  Generally the preferred way to run is to boot/start a
 benchmark with the atomic CPU and then drop a checkpoint.  You can then
 restore from the checkpoint with the detailed CPU.

 Simple use case:
 1) specify gem5 command with --checkpoint-at-end and the atomic CPU
 2) Once the benchmark/boot gets to the place you desire kill the
 simulation (CTRL-C).  This creates a checkpoint
 3) Restore from the checkpoint with the detailed CPU (specify the desired
 cpu model and also -r1 to restore from the checkpoint)

 Hi Users,

 I am trying to run some benchmarks on ARM detailed cpu. However the
 simulation takes a very long time for linux to bootup and is stuck at
 freeing init memory and  not mounting the filesystem. In case of atomic
 cpu, the kernel boots up to console quite fastly. I would like to know if i
 can use atomic simple cpu during linux boot phase and then switch to
 detailed cpu before i start running benchmarks?

 Thanks,
 Prathap

Check the config.ini in the output directory.  Assuming you are using
o3/detailed, the CPU type should be listed as DerivO3CPU.
