Gem5, simpoint的warm up_simpoint-interval-CSDN博客

这篇博客介绍了如何使用Gem5模拟器进行大规模缓存预热，设置了40亿指令的warmup阶段。通过SimPoint工具获取权重信息，重点关注权重为0.61的片段，该片段始于607亿指令。Gem5根据权重在567亿指令处创建checkpoint，并在达到607亿指令时结束预热，进入ROI区域。整个过程详细记录了CPU执行的指令数。

需要warm up比较大的cache，因此warm up设置的比较大，4Billion instruction.

gem5产生simpoint.bb.gz之后，使用simpoint抓取weight信息，

weight

0.0580581 0
0.612613 1
0.014014 2
0.138138 3
0.177177 4

simpoints

其中1片段对应权重0.61，起始指令为60.7Billion。

之所以单位是0.1Billion是因为在gem5 产生simpoint时，使用了--simpoint-interval 100000000（100M指令）。

gem5使用该weight和simpoint产生checkpoint时，会在56.7B处产生checkpoint，然后经过4Billion的instruction，结束warm up，进入真正的60.7Billion的roi 指令。
