Make the emulation environment consider the rex prefix. Implement and hook in forms of j, jmp, cmp, syscall, movzx Added a format for an instruction to carry a call to the SE mode syscalls system Made memory instructions which refer to the rip do so directly Made the operand size overridable in the microassembly Made the "ext" field of register operations 16 bits to hold a sparse encoding of flags to set or conditions to predicate on Added an explicit "rax" operand for the syscall format Implemented syscall returns. --HG-- extra : convert_revision : ae84bd8c6a1d400906e17e8b8c4185f2ebd4c5f2
This is release 2.0_beta (patch 1) of the M5 simulator. For detailed information about building the simulator and getting started please refer to http://www.m5sim.org. Specific pages of interest are: http://www.m5sim.org/wiki/index.php/Compiling_M5 http://www.m5sim.org/wiki/index.php/Running_M5 Short version: 1. If you don't have SCons version 0.96.91 or newer, get it from http://wwww.scons.org. 2. If you don't have SWIG version 1.3.28 or newer, get it from http://wwww.swig.org. 3. In this directory, type 'scons build/ALPHA_SE/tests/debug/quick'. This will build the debug version of the m5 binary (m5.debug) for the Alpha syscall emulation target, and run the quick regression tests on it. If you have questions, please send mail to m5-users@m5sim.org WHAT'S INCLUDED (AND NOT) ------------------------- The basic source release includes these subdirectories: - m5: - src: source code of the m5 simulator - tests: regression tests - ext: less-common external packages needed to build m5 - system/alpha: source for Alpha console and PALcode To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled console, PALcode, and kernel binaries and one or more disk images. These files are collected in a separate archive, m5_system.tar.bz2. This file can he downloaded separately. M5 supports Linux 2.4/2.6, FreeBSD, and the proprietary Compaq/HP Tru64 version of Unix. We are able to distribute Linux and FreeBSD bootdisks, but we are unable to distribute bootable disk images of Tru64 Unix. If you have a Tru64 license and are interested in obtaining disk images, contact us at m5-dev@eecs.umich.edu.
