The Python version installed in the Dockerfile for GCN3 by apt-get is too old to build gem5. This bumps the version to the most recent Python to avoid needing to update this file too much. Python 3.9 is install via PPA since it is not available in the official Ubuntu 16.04 repository. Likewise, pip is installed from "source" as it is not available for Python 3.9 in from neither the PPA nor Ubuntu.

gcn3-gpu dockerfile
This dockerfile contains all the dependences necessary to run GPU applications in gem5 using the gcn3 APU model
Building the image
docker build -t <image_name> .
Building gem5 using the image
The following command assumes the gem5 directory is a subdirectory of your current directory
docker run --rm -v $PWD/gem5:/gem5 -w /gem5 <image_name> scons -sQ -j$(nproc) build/GCN3_X86/gem5.opt
Test gem5 using a prebuilt application
wget http://dist.gem5.org/dist/current/test-progs/hip_sample_bins/MatrixTranspose
docker run --rm -v $PWD/MatrixTranspose:/MatrixTranspose -v $PWD/public_gem5:/gem5 -w /gem5 \
<image_name> build/GCN3_X86/gem5.opt configs/example/apu_se.py -n2 --benchmark-root=/ -cMatrixTranspose
Notes
- When using the
-vflag, the path to the input file/directory needs to be the absolute path; symlinks don't work - Currently linking in an AFS volume is not supported, as it uses ACLs instead of owner/group IDs
ToDo
- Add square to gem5-resources github, add directions for building and running an application
