Kyle Roarty d1c6c96b0a util: Install scons 3.1 from pip in gcn-gpu dockerfile
A previous commit updated the minimum required version of scons to 3.0

The gcn Dockerfile previously installed scons from apt, which installed
scons 2.4, as the Dockerfile is based on Ubuntu 16

This patch installs scons through pip, which installs scons 3.1

gcn3-gpu dockerfile

This dockerfile contains all the dependences necessary to run GPU applications in gem5 using the gcn3 APU model

Building the image

docker build -t <image_name> .

Building gem5 using the image

The following command assumes the gem5 directory is a subdirectory of your current directory

docker run --rm -v $PWD/gem5:/gem5 -w /gem5 <image_name> scons -sQ -j$(nproc) build/GCN3_X86/gem5.opt

Test gem5 using a prebuilt application

wget http://dist.gem5.org/dist/current/test-progs/hip_sample_bins/MatrixTranspose
docker run --rm -v $PWD/MatrixTranspose:/MatrixTranspose -v $PWD/public_gem5:/gem5 -w /gem5 \
        <image_name> build/GCN3_X86/gem5.opt configs/example/apu_se.py -n2 --benchmark-root=/ -cMatrixTranspose

Notes

  • When using the -v flag, the path to the input file/directory needs to be the absolute path; symlinks don't work
  • Currently linking in an AFS volume is not supported, as it uses ACLs instead of owner/group IDs

ToDo

  • Add square to gem5-resources github, add directions for building and running an application
