The gem5 simulator is a modular platform for computer-system
|
|
architecture research, encompassing system-level architecture as
|
|
well as processor microarchitecture. gem5 is a community led project
|
|
with an open governance model.
|
|
|
|
gem5 was originally conceived for computer architecture research
|
|
in academia, but it has grown to be used in computer system design
|
|
by academia, industry for research, and in teaching.
|
|
|
|
By default it's build the X86 simulator, you can set to other
|
|
architectures with a environment variable as following:
|
|
- MIPS=yes
|
|
- POWER=yes
|
|
- RISCV=yes
|
|
- SPARC=yes
|
|
|
|
Optional:
|
|
- protobuf-c (for tracing support)
|
|
- hdf5
|
