This change introduces the idea of a SourceFilter which is an object that can filter a SourceList and which can be composed with other SourceFilters using | and & operators. This means a filter can be constructed ahead of time, possibly before all sources have been discovered, and then later applied to any SourceList necessary. This change also modifies GTest so that it accepts SourceFilters in addition to normal source files. These filters will be applied to the final list of all sources, and the result included in the build for that test. By default, gtests will build in all sources tagged with 'gtest lib'. This change also introduces the keyword argument "skip_lib" which will exclude those files. They can then be left out entirely, or they can be re-included as part of a more elaborate filter. That would be useful if someone wanted to write a unit test for, for instance, the warn, etc. macros which rely on the gtest logging support. Those classes could be replaced by something under the control of the unit test, while still including the rest of the gtest library.

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/Introduction, and for more information about building the simulator and getting started please see http://www.gem5.org/Documentation and http://www.gem5.org/Tutorials. 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/Dependencies 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 ALPHA, 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/Build_System for more details and options. With the simulator built, have a look at http://www.gem5.org/Running_gem5 for more information on how to use gem5. 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. Please see the gem5 download page for these items at http://www.gem5.org/Download If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
