Re: [Gems-users] LogTM SE in Gems 2.1

[Jayaram Bobba <bobba@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Step 1: Call init_transaction_state(num_threads) before thread creation
Step 2: Call set_transaction_registers(thread_id) before a thread starts 
executing transactions.
Binding threads to processors is highly recommended.

Hope this answers your questions...
