From: Nilay Vaish Date: Mon, 6 Aug 2012 23:14:31 +0000 (-0500) Subject: Config: change how cpu class is set X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d81a51a4c8ee0eb081f87865970426524e89111e;p=gem5.git Config: change how cpu class is set This changes the way in which the cpu class while restoring from a checkpoint is set. Earlier it was assumed if cpu type with which to restore is not same as the cpu type with the which to run the simulation, then the checkpoint should be restored with the atomic cpu. This assumption is being dropped. The checkpoint can now be restored with any cpu type, the default being atomic cpu. --- diff --git a/configs/common/Simulation.py b/configs/common/Simulation.py index 2ba691ed0..7d2ba6735 100644 --- a/configs/common/Simulation.py +++ b/configs/common/Simulation.py @@ -38,45 +38,48 @@ from O3_ARM_v7a import * addToPath('../common') -def setCPUClass(options): +def getCPUClass(cpu_type): + """Returns the required cpu class and the mode of operation. + """ + + if cpu_type == "timing": + return TimingSimpleCPU, 'timing' + elif cpu_type == "detailed": + return DerivO3CPU, 'timing' + elif cpu_type == "arm_detailed": + return O3_ARM_v7a_3, 'timing' + elif cpu_type == "inorder": + return InOrderCPU, 'timing' + else: + return AtomicSimpleCPU, 'atomic' - atomic = False - if options.cpu_type == "timing": - class TmpClass(TimingSimpleCPU): pass - elif options.cpu_type == "detailed" or options.cpu_type == "arm_detailed": +def setCPUClass(options): + """Returns two cpu classes and the initial mode of operation. + + Restoring from a checkpoint or fast forwarding through a benchmark + can be done using one type of cpu, and then the actual + simulation can be carried out using another type.
