This macro is directly expecting a Debug::Flag instance as a first
argument instead of simply the name of the debug flag, and it is
forwarding it with no preprocessing to the underlying logic
(dprintf_flag).
This is different from the common DPRINTF, which is converting the
first argument into a flag and into a string literal.
This is useful if we want to pass the DebugFlag from the subclass to
the superclass. This makes it possible to set tracepoints in the
Base class logic, and let the Derived classes define the flag which
will enable the tracepoint
class Base
{
Base(const Debug::SimpleFlag &_flag)
: flag(_flag) {}
void baseLogic()
{
DPRINTFV(flag, "...");
}
const Debug::SimpleFlag flag;
}
class Derived1 : public Base
{
Derived1() : Base(Debug::Derived1) {}
}
class Derived2 : public Base
{
Derived2() : Base(Debug::Derived2) {}
}
A more concrete example is Arm Table Walker, which is using a DmaPort.
If we want to log the table walker port activity, we are using the
--debug-flags=DMA, which is unconvenient as it will contain the
logs from every DMA device in the simulation

This is the gem5 simulator. The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/about, and for more information about building the simulator and getting started please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation and http://www.gem5.org/documentation/learning_gem5/introduction. To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang, Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4, and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building for more details concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools. Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture. See http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building for more details and options. The basic source release includes these subdirectories: - configs: example simulation configuration scripts - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5 - src: source code of the gem5 simulator - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems - tests: regression tests - util: useful utility programs and files To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware (console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk images. If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
