changeset c9f52fae6b37 in /z/repo/m5 details: http://repo.m5sim.org/m5?cmd=changeset;node=c9f52fae6b37 description: O3CPU: Add a hack to ensure that nextPC is set correctly after syscalls. Just check CPU's nextPC before and after syscall and if it changes, update this instruction's nextPC because the syscall must have changed the nextPC.
