[gem5-users] Running Parsec 3.0 in x86 FS mode with ruby memory

[Parasar, Mayank]

Hi All,

I am trying to run Parsec-3.0 on gem5 in FS mode. However, I am not able to find any instructions or disk image to run it in x86 ISA with ruby memory model.
[something similar to http://www.gem5.org/PARSEC_benchmarks but for Parsec-3.0-x86-FS with ruby memory model]

Secondly, Is there any specific linux kernel that I need to use to run Parsec 3.0 in above mentioned configuration or the old kernel (2.6.22.9.smp) would work with Parsec-3.0?

Thank you!

Best Regards,
Mayank

Hi Mayank,

The information here:
http://www.lowepower.com/jason/creating-disk-images-for-gem5.html and here:
http://www.lowepower.com/jason/setting-up-gem5-full-system.html should work
with minor changes with Ruby. The first post about creating a disk image
should be exactly the same whether you're using classic caches or Ruby.
Essentially, you can create a disk in qemu and then use it in gem5.

I would try to use the most recent kernel you can find (e.g., mainline
linux) or use the kernel version with whatever Linux distro you choose
(e.g., 4.15 for Ubuntu 18.04). You'll have to compile your own kernel, but
in one of those posts above I link to a config file that will get you
started.

Cheers,
Jason
