[Gems-users] running benchmark with different number of processors

[Meng Zhang <mz28@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have a question when running benchmarks with different number of processors for a ceratin protocol. I need to run MOSI_SMP_bcast and MOSI_SMP_directory_1level. Should I set the rubyconfig.defaults file like the following:

// set automatically
g_NUM_PROCESSORS: 0

g_NUM_L2_BANKS: 0

g_NUM_MEMORIES: 0

 

and then set the number of chips in config.py of gen-scripts directory?

For MOSI_SMP_bcast, it is easier since all the configurations use hierarchical switch, but for MOSI_SMP_directory_1level, they use different network topologies as a result of different number of processors. Can simics automatically find the corresponding topology file? I didn't see where I can specify the file. Thanks !
