The file was raising due to the undefined constant `verifiers`, leading
the test to be ignored.
./main.py list -v
would show this as:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/gem5/tests/../ext/testlib/loader.py", line 239, in load_file
execfile(path, newdict, newdict)
File "/gem5/tests/gem5/memcheck/test_memcheck.py", line 32, in <module>
verifiers=verifiers,
NameError: name 'verifiers' is not defined
Exception thrown while loading "/gem5/tests/gem5/memcheck/test_memcheck.py"
Ignoring all tests in this file.
```
The test has been modified to have an empty verifiers list, which should
still catch bugs since src/mem/mem_checker.cc has several asserts already
which would be caught by the test system due to the exit status.
Also make the following changes to the test:
- move it to tests/gem5/memory/test.py with other memory tests.
This makes it easier to see all the tests in the source in one go, and
might make it easier to factor certain memory things out later on.
- reduce --maxtick to a value that finishes in 7 seconds on a Lenovo
ThinkPad P51.
The previous value would take 50x longer, which feels too long for a
single test.
- enable --prefetchers to also stress a prefetcher in the test

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.
