This patch adds a subset (rv64*) of RISC-V assembly tests. The original riscv-test project can be found here: https://github.com/riscv/riscv-tests. The riscv-test project is under the BSD license (https://github.com/riscv/riscv-tests/blob/master/LICENSE) and is maintained separately from gem5 project. The tests have been slightly modified to work in gem5 SE mode: (1) Removed a trap handler used in riscv-tests for bare-metal systems (2) Instead of throwing an exception, the tests call the exit syscall with the exit code of - '0' if SUCCESS - Failed test case's number (non-zero) if FAILURE The exit code can be captured after a simuation completes. In addition to original RISC-V assembly tests, this patch adds several assembly tests specifically for AMO, LR, SC and system calls. Those tests target a multi-core system. (1) rv64uamt: multi-threaded tests for A-extension instructions (2) rv64samt: multi-threaded tests for clone and futex system calls This patch also makes the style checker ignore RISC-V assembly test directory. The assembly tests are maintained in an external project that does not follow the gem5 coding conventions. Please find more details in the README file included in this patch.

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.
