[Gems-users] results of microbenchmarks deque-tm

["Irene-Aggeliki Chounta" <houren@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi everyone,

 

I'm experimenting with protocol MESI_SMP_LogTM and currently running deque-tm to check out how it works.

 

I make the needed changes to simics script, copy the binary to simulated machine and execute and then I get in simics host the following:

 

end_transaction_magic_call: Unexpected magic call number 4
end_transaction_magic_call: transaction started: 0, transaction completed: 0, transaction_limit: 4, None
[cpu2] v:0x0000000000010f58 p:0x00000003f95b4f58  magic (sethi 0x40000, %g0)
simics>

 

so from what i can understand there's no transaction started due to this unexpected magic call number 4, is that correct????

 

why is this happening anyway????

 

thanks in advance.

 

ps. happy new year all ;)
