#### Trace Generator Script
|

|
||||
A python script for generating simple traces for tests is provided.

A python script for generating input traces for simple tests is provided.

[trace_gen.py](DRAMSys/library/resources/scripts/trace_gen.py).
|

|

Example on how to run the script:
|
||||
|
||||
``` bash
|
||||
$ cd DRAMSys/library/resources/scripts
|
||||
$ ./trace_gen.py > trace.stl

|
||||
Now change your configuration file to use the new generated trace file and run
|
||||
your simulation.
|
||||
|
||||
The script can be easily changed and provides a way to quickly generate
|
||||
accesses to all channels, all bank groups, all banks, all rows and all columns
|
||||
of a memory.
|
||||
|
||||
**Be aware that a trace which covers all rows and all columns may be huge
|
||||
(several gigabytes) depending on your memory.**
|
||||
|
||||
The defaul values in the script serve as an example. They consider the address
|
||||
mapping that follows.
|
||||
|
||||
You can open the script with a text editor and change some parameters to fit your needs.
|
||||
