So, I was never able to get the Solaris 10 install to work with Simics 2.2, but my partner got it running on SImics 3.0, using the serigenti install scripts included with simics. So, we've been working with that. We spent tonight booting the installs with 1, 4, 8, and 16 processors and making checkpoints.
As I recall LogTM used the serengeti profile with 32 processors. However, you can't boot serengeti with that many processors, because it only allows 6 boards with 4 CPUs each. To get 32, we had to change the serengeti_components.py file to allow more CPU boards. Is this correct?
Another confusing thing to me, is that Ruby simulates a multi-core system, so shouldn't it be 32 processors on 1 board? Or does ruby take care of that somehow?
One last question, I was interested in the cholesky, barnes, and radiosity microbenchmarks, but they don't seem to have any code included. Where can I get that code? (/microbenchmarks/transactional/cholesky/)
Thanks,
Jim
